Vicka the visionary of Medjugorje: "Our Lady asks us for prayer, conversion, confession and fasting"

The visionary Vicka Ivankovic was born on September 3, 1964 in Bijakovici from Zlata and Pero, then a worker in Germany. Fifth of eight children, she has a pharmacist sister and an employee. He saw the Madonna for the first time on June 24, 1981.
The daily apparitions for her have not yet stopped. To date, Our Lady has entrusted her with nine secrets. Vicka lives with her parents in a new house in the parish of Medjugorje.

For a long time he met the pilgrims who came to Medjugorje, then due to his age and his physical condition, he thinned out these meetings more and more. His smile and his words filled the hearts of thousands of pilgrims.

We propose the transcription, from an audio recording, of the words spoken by Vicka during one of his last meetings with the pilgrims.

“The main messages that Our Lady says for us are: PRAYER, PEACE, CONVERSION, CONFESSION, FASTING.
Our Lady recommends that we fast twice a week: Wednesday and Friday, on bread and water. Then he wants us to pray the three parts of the Rosary every day. One more beautiful thing that Our Lady recommends is to pray for our strong faith.

When Our Lady recommends praying, she does not mean only to say words with the mouth, but that every day, slowly, we open our hearts to prayer and so we pray "with the heart".

She gave us a beautiful example: you have a flower plant in your homes; every day put a little water and that flower becomes a beautiful rose. This is what happens in our heart: if we put a little prayer every day, our heart grows like that flower ...

And if we don't put water for two or three days, we see that it withers, as if it no longer exists. the a Madonna also tells us: sometimes we say, when it is time to pray, that we are tired and we will pray tomorrow; but then it comes tomorrow and the day after tomorrow and we turn our hearts away from prayer to turn it to other interests.

But as a flower cannot live without water, so we cannot live without the grace of God. It also says: prayer with the heart cannot be studied, cannot be read: it can only be lived, day by day to go on in the path of the life of grace.

About fasting, he says: when a person is sick, he must not fast on bread and water, but only make a few small sacrifices. But a person who is in good health and says that he cannot fast because he is dizzy, know that if one fastes "for the love of God and Our Lady" there will be no problems: good will is enough.

Our Lady wants our complete conversion and says: Dear children, when you have a problem or an illness, you think that Jesus and I are far from you: no, we are always close to you! You open your heart and you will see how much we love all of you!

Our Lady is happy when we make small sacrifices, but she is even happier when we no longer sin and abandon our sins. And he says: I give you my Peace, my Love and you bring them to your families and your friends and bring my blessing; I pray for all of you!

And again: I am very happy when you pray the Rosary in your families and communities; I am even happier when parents pray with their children and children with parents, so united in prayer that Satan can no longer harm you. Satan always disturbs, wants to disturb our prayers and our peace.

Our Lady reminds us that a weapon against Satan is the Rosary in our hand: let us pray more! We put a blessed object next to us: a cross, a medal, a small sign against satan.

Let's put Holy Mass first: it's the most important moment, holy moment! And Jesus who comes alive among us. When we go to church, we go to take Jesus without fear and without apology.

In confession then, go not only to tell your sins, but also to ask the priest for advice, so he could progress you. Our Lady is very worried about all the young people in the world, who live a very difficult situation: we can only help them with our love and prayer with the heart.

Dear young people, what the world offers you is passing; satan awaits your free moments: there he attacks you, undermines you and wants to ruin your lives. This is a moment of great graces, we must take advantage of it; Our Lady wants us to welcome her messages and live them!

Let's become bearers of his Peace and carry it all over the world! First of all, however, we pray for peace in our hearts, peace in our families and in our communities: with this peace, we pray for peace in the whole world!

If you pray for peace in the world - says Our Lady - and you have no peace in your heart, your prayer is of little value. at this time, Our Lady recommends us to pray more for her intentions.

Every day we take the Bible, read two or three lines and live the day on them. He recommends praying every day for the Holy Father, the bishops, the priests, for all our Church that needs our prayers. But in a particular way, Our Lady asks us to pray for her plan which must be realized.

The great concern of Our Lady, and she always repeats it, at this moment are the young people and the families. It is a very very difficult moment! Our Lady prays for peace and wants us to pray with you, for the same intentions. Tonight, when Our Lady comes, I will pray for your intentions; but you open your heart and give all your wishes to the Madonna.
