Medjugorje: what you need to know about the visionaries

It is enough to know the life that the 6 visionaries lead, to realize rationally that they cannot absolutely be different from what they manifest. Their simplicity, humility and truth is too great to deceive. Their voluntary availability is too great, without accepting even a penny of the offer, to understand that they have truly been guided by Our Lady on their journey of human growth and Christian perfection.

Just talk to one of the 6 visionaries to understand that they have had special contacts with the Madonna. They are very spiritual people, the Spirit of the Madonna is felt.

Contact with the Queen of the world transformed them spiritually into a crescendo of Marianization. The six of them manifest the imitation of Mary Most Holy, but all believers are called to imitate Our Lady.

It is very useful to read my books on the Madonna (Mary Mother of God and meditated Holy Rosary) to understand what to do to begin the journey of Marianization, that is, the spiritual transformation into Mary. The Marian journey begins when the virtues of Mary Most Holy are imitated.

The 6 visionaries for twenty-five years were instructed and guided by the Mother of God. On June 24, 1981 they were boys, Vicka was seventeen, Marija sixteen, Mirjana sixteen, Ivan sixteen, Ivanka fifteen, Jacov ten. Young people similar to their coetans, but they will become faithful instruments of Our Lady's will. The chosen ones are always humble and simple.

I also reflected on the choices made by Our Lady: always poor, simple places, unknown to many. Lourdes, Fatima, Medjugorje and others little known. Places where the Catholic Faith is still lived with sincere fervor, putting Jesus at the center of everything. It impressed me when on a Good Friday the shopkeepers in front of the parish of Medjugorje closed in the afternoon to go and participate in the religious service. With what concern they tried to arrive well in advance in the Church. I think of many faithful who live in the West, so full of commitments and work, who do not even remember the day of Good Friday.

Faith is genuine in the places where the Madonna appears, you realize that she really appears, also from the behavior of the people of the place. Of course, wherever you find the good and the bad, but where the Madonna appears there is a radical change in habits, behaviors, in short, in all life conduct. And it is not a trivial matter. He therefore chooses simple, good, sincere boys or children.

Someone might also ask: why did the 6 seers get married and did not enter the Convent.

First of all, they were not obliged to enter the Convent, and what happened to Bernadette and Lucia are cases in themselves, which occurred in other eras. Instead, in Medjugorje it is the last apparition in the world of Our Lady, as you said.

But then, not everyone who sees the Madonna must enter the Convent. On the other hand, I have always been convinced that it was a Divine plan not to let the 6 enter the Convent.

The 6 visionaries were free to marry or to enter the Convent, each decided independently, but I remain convinced that the failure to choose the religious consecration of the 6 visionaries was part of the Madonna's plan.

The reason is simple, because in this way the 6 visionaries were able to travel the world by making prayer meetings everywhere and bringing the teachings of Our Lady everywhere; they were free to welcome pilgrims to Medjugorje and to repeat with great love to each group how much Our Lady came to ask the world through these 6 privileged tools.

Imagine the 6 visionaries in a convent far from Medjugorje, closed and unable to meet people every day, while thousands of pilgrims go to Medjugorje every day and many millions in one year? I just can't imagine it, Our Lady needed the 6 visionaries, free to move and meet millions of people.

Then, also an important consideration, all 6 visionaries got married, because today the family is attacked from many sides and Our Lady says that we must save her. So he invites all the families of the world to look at the 6 families of the visionaries, to understand through them how the family should live.

We know that many groups leave for Medjugorje also because there they will meet some visionary and will hear from his mouth what the Madonna said, they will hear teachings from a person who has seen the Madonna for many years and has talked countless times with her.

But the life of an instrument of the Madonna is always troubled. As the presence of millions of pilgrims in Medjugorje grew, so did the persecution against the visionaries. It is normal that this is so, Jesus said: "If they persecuted me, they will persecute you too" (Jn 15,20:XNUMX). And it is impossible that a true follower of Jesus will not be struck by the most infamous accusations by the enemies of God.

I do not dwell on what was extremely slanderous was said against Padre Pio, to what baseness people who declared themselves intelligent and followers of Jesus Christ arrived.

Consider that the more united he is with Jesus and Our Lady, the more the devil is unleashed and arouses many, even thousands of slanderers, putting false, mischievous and ignoble thoughts against their true servants in their empty heads.

What reaction is evident in the true follower of Jesus when he is persecuted for the Name of Christ? Silence and prayer. Love and forgiveness. Which all 6 visionaries from Medjugorje did very well. For over 25 years.

Only with the explanation of the presence of the Blessed Virgin is it understood that the supernatural operates there, which is not comprehensible or accessible to the natural world.
