Why Heaven Must Wait

Mary

The time is not yet ready for the full saving action of God’s power to flow forth from my Immaculate Heart. How I wish the world and the Church were ready. However, to pour out the fullness of my gifts at this time would not have the effects that are needed.

I will explain the visions of my heart. The world is not ready because it has not yet come to the brink of hopelessness. The full darkness has not descended. If I were to release all of these graces and destroy all the evils, the world would not realize that anything truly of heaven had done this. It would attribute the changes to natural causes and go merrily along its way.

Much more important, the Church is not ready. The great expectancy about the gifts flowing from my heart is not present. In spite of all my apparitions and revelations, the Church is not awake. Few realize that the Father has placed these mysteries in my heart. Few seek them avidly and there is no great, widespread fervor centering on my Immaculate Heart. The Church looks in other directions for answers or sees itself as passive and helpless, not realizing its power or that the true path to world peace lies in these mysteries that I am revealing.

How much Jesus wanted to begin his ministry to Israel, but he had to wait. First, the Baptist had to appear and prepare the way of the Lord. Only when the fervor of Israel had been stirred did Jesus know that it was His time to appear at the Jordan and be baptized by John.

These are the mysteries, the way heaven interacts with earth. Heaven cannot just pour out its gifts. Earth must be looking and searching, so the gifts are welcomed. These are the mysteries.
