YEAR 1: INVITATION TO THE LIFE OF PRAYER AND LOVE
PHASE 2: "OPEN YOUR HEARTS TO THE HOLY SPIRIT"
3. LIVING THE GIFT OF PRAYER
Weekly message Tuesday, 26 June 1984: Longing for God as unceasing prayer.
NOTE
Again, no message was given by Our Lady on Thursday, 28 June 1984, but she gave a message through Jelena on Tuesday, 26 June 1984, as follow-up to the previous one. I therefore include this message.
“When I say ‘pray, pray, pray,’ I do not mean only increase the hours of prayer, but increase the desire for prayer and to be in contact with God. Place yourself permanently in a state of spirit bathed in prayer.”
