Cross Mountain Today March 5

Cross Mountain, this morning in Medjugorje, March 5, 2010

A heavy fog surrounded the top of Cross Mountain, this morning in Medjugorje, March 5, 2010, placing a veil over the Cross. Even though the Cross is hidden from view, we know it is still there. In our world today, many want to keep the Cross hidden, ignore its existence; forget the reality of its presence and what it represents. People don’t want to hear about the Cross or about Jesus. As Our Lady said:
 

July 30, 1987

"…Children, darkness reigns over the whole world. People are attracted by many things and they forget about the more important.

"Light won’t reign in the world until people accept Jesus, until they live His words, which is the Word of the Gospel.

"Dear children, this is the reason for my presence among you for such a long time: to lead you on the path of Jesus. I want to save you and, through you, to save the whole world. Many people now live without faith; some don’t even want to hear about Jesus, but they still want peace and satisfaction! Children, here is the reason why I need your prayer: prayer is the only way to save the human race."

There is no salvation without Jesus, and there is no salvation without the Cross. People can ignore it, mock it, pretend it doesn’t exist, keep it behind a veil so they don’t have to remember it—but the Cross is still there. satan can create such a fog as to make people forget the Cross, but it is still there. satan cannot make the Cross go away. Those who climbed Cross Mountain today, upon reaching the top, could easily see the Cross, despite the fog. In fact, the closer one gets to the Cross, the more visible it becomes. Don’t be afraid of the Cross. It is the sign of our salvation and the only path to freedom. Rather, be afraid that the reality of the Cross is being forgotten in our world where darkness reigns. Our Lady began the above message with these words…

"Dear children, today I invite you in a special way to pray for the plans of God to be fulfilled: first of all with you, then with this parish which God Himself has chosen. Dear children, to be chosen by God is really something great, but it is also a responsibility for you to pray more, for you, the chosen ones, to encourage others so you can be a light for people in darkness…”

The Cross may be temporarily out of view, but it is still there, and Our Lady has come to bring it out into the Light. She is asking for our help. Be a light for people in darkness. Lead them to the Cross.
