No one can serve two masters. He will either hate the one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life-- what you shall eat or drink-- or about your body-- what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?

Look at the birds in the sky. They do not sow or reap. They gather nothing into barns, yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are not you more important than they? Can any of you, by worrying, add a single moment to your life span?

Why are you anxious about clothes? Learn from the way the wildflowers grow. They do not work or spin. But I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendour was clothed like one of them. If God so clothes the grass of the field, which grows today and is thrown into the oven tomorrow, will He not much more provide for you, oh you of little faith?

So do not worry and say, what are we to eat? Or what shall we drink? Or what are we to wear? All these things the pagans seek. Your Heavenly Father knows that you need them all.

But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides. Do not worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow will take care of itself. Sufficient for a day is its own evil.

This is Mejanomics with a Friend of Medjugorje.

[REYES]

Thank you for joining us on tonights broadcast of Mejanomics. This week, we have been blessed to share the experience of what Our Lady has done here with a Friend of Medjugorje in Her apparitions and messages, and spending time with the pilgrims here who are able to witness this historic pilgrimage of seeing these sacred sites and what Our Lady has established here.

For Mejanomics today, we are going to share with you the highlights of what a Friend of Medjugorje spoke to the Caritas Pilgrimage group yesterday. And so, here is a Friend of Medjugorje.

[CLIP]

[A FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]

The messages of Our Lady shows us one thing: responsibility. The responsibility we have right now is more grave than anything in 2000 years with the birth of the Church itself. And Our Lady gives us a period of time to prepare for divine intervention. If I told you that twenty years ago or thirty years ago, you would say, Whats the big deal? Nobody questions it now. They know we cant correct this problem we have now. Had Our Lady not started in 1981 and started now at 2000, say, 11, She would be overwhelmed with the messages by electronics. We got rooted before the fax machine, before the computer laptop, before all these things that have snowed us deep and bury us, basically, so deep that we cant get out. Our Lady couldnt come earlier, and She couldnt have come any later. So, all this timing, and your birth and where you are, your age, nothings by chance.

Our Lady gave a message that spoke to us that theres no chance. Youve heard that, and if youve read my writing, I use this a lot. In the ancient Jews, and probably today the same way, when they had a decision they had to make, they would draw straws. Actually, you might say, Well, Im not going to do that. Im not going to pick yes or no or get a straw to go buy a car or should I marry this person. Yet, the most responsible decision first made by the Church was who was going to replace Judas. Well, they had two people, and how did they come to that conclusion? Drawing straws. So, Our Lady now comes to tell us in our time, theres nothing by chance.

So, the Jews had gone throughout history that everything, when they couldnt make a decision, they left it up to God by chance. So, thats a big responsibility as far as what we do now today, tying that into our decisions of what we make. We have to pray for decisions. But many times when youre going to make a decision, you still dont know that confidence of what youre supposed to do. But if you pray, if you walk that way, you can develop that system that you can always make the right decision, and its not by chance the way it turns out. Things happen, and those things are always questioned. Theres not even the least insect thats made on the earth and created, throughout creation, without it having a purpose.

So, everything we do and everything we live, we have distanced ourselves and this culture away from God. So, Our Lady comes to us with a big, big responsibility for us. She says on May 8, 1986,

you are the ones responsible for the messages

You here have to go into the messages and have to change the direction of your life, your mentality, your thinking, decisions you made twenty years ago thats on the wrong path. You have to align everything with the message. Is it difficult? You bet it is. Our Lady says, This is a difficult thing I give to you. January 25, 1987. You are chosen for a great plan for the salvation of [the world]

So, we go back to the Crucifixion, Pentecost, these things, the Church growing, and here we come, a new thing, 2000 years later that you are responsible, and you have a great role in this for the salvation of the world. Why? Because its losing salvation. Never in a period have we had the circumstances as we have now except for one other time. It was before Noah and the Flood, and God struck through nature. But now He sends His Mother, and Shes not going to do it that way. Its going to come through grace, a real, real grace. Were going to be struck raining down graces. But dont think its going to be a pleasant thing. Remember Francisco in Fatima, six years old, She shows him hell, and hes looking down there and hes screaming and screaming. Take it away! Take it away! That would be child abuse today. Jakov saw hell when he was thirteen or fourteen, and he will not talk about it today it was so hard. And he says, All I will tell you about hell is youd never want anybody, your worst enemy, to go to hell. Francisco, in 1917, sees hell, and Our Lady doesnt take it away. She makes him see that and allows him to see that. To think about how much hes terrorized by that.

We are in a situation right now, Our Ladys showing us things and were seeing things that you might not want to see. We dont want to see whats happening with this election. We dont want to see whats going on in the government. We dont want to see whats happening in the family and all the divorce and all these things thats taking place. The worlds an ugly place right now. We dont try to sell anybody Medjugorje. We dont try to convince anybody. We just show them our witness and how we live. And people are now, because of corona, are thinking different about everything, that we have to change our way of life. We have to change the system. We cant depend on the dollar. We have to depend on somebody in community with you or your next-door neighbor, or whatever you can put together.

June 25, 1989. Ivanka, Im with her, and Our Lady tells her, you are in great temptation through materialism. satan is involved with this. So, its his plan for that, and everybodys connected, and its very difficult to be far away from the system as it is now. Ask yourself, is the system glorifying God? What is glorifying God and what is not glorifying God? You can pick out whats going down because She said that September 2, I think, 2011. Everythingis passing Youve heard me say it. everything is falling apart Everything. She didnt say most things are going to fall apart. She said,

Everythingis passingeverything is falling apart

What will be left? Our Lady says,

only the glory of God

In other words, your life, your business, your house, what you do, your school, the universities. If they dont glorify God, they are over. Starbucks is going out of business, Im telling you right now. Zuckerberg, all their stuff is going away. Its going to pass; its going to fall apart. The systems going to crash. If you know that, you understand that, why would you not start changing the direction of your life? Our Lady said that, quote,

change the direction of your life

I cant just do that. Its true. Thats why Our Lady's here for almost forty years because were so rooted. Weve got a weed here that a lot of people like. Its wisteria. When I was in business I said, Dont plant this thing. Its from the devil. [LAUGHTER] I mean, it grows right here, and then it sprouts up at the front of the building. And once youve got it, you cant get rid of it. Its constant. And for those of you who know what wisteria is, it has a beautiful look, purple flowers in the Spring, and people do it for that little sweetness, and the rest of the year, youre fighting it. And thats whats in us. Were so rooted, so enslaved, we cant get away from it. Thats why we did the Miraculous Medjugorje Round. Itll give you a system. That actually is a system, the rounds, the silver rounds that were doing, is going to turn into an economic currency itself. Theres four million of them out there. And that was part of getting the people from that segment, get away from your retirements, changing things like that. You have to change everything and re-evaluate everything in your life. Why would you want to keep your 401(k)s where they are when theyre all spread out in the stock markets? This over here is in the insurance. This is over here in some other kind of investment. You think thats going to stay there? Is it glorifying God? Thats your question. Is that system going to be there? Are the 401(k)s going to be there? But thats just one little speck of our lives where we messed up. Weve got mortgaged houses. Weve got these things and these situations. This may beYou can start getting depressed thinking about that, but Our Lady said, Its never too late.

One thing Ive noticed, that people have a lot of money, thats very, very strong Christians, when they get something, they get cancer or they get something, the first thing they do is go get the best doctor, the best hospital, the best medicine. They dont care what theyve got to spend. And at the end, when everythings over, and they cant fix it, they say, Well, the only thing left to do is prayer. My sister works in ICC with Childrens Hospital. There was actually a little girl who came in who was on a four-wheeler, damaged her brain, and after three or four days, the doctors couldnt do anything. And they told my sister, Well, theres nothing left to do but prayer. Thats the last thing you do? You be praying. You be praying every day. And then whatever does happen, it goes through what God patterned out for you and its easier to accept.

We pray, I pray, for a happy, holy death, not not to die of cancer, not to die from thiswhat Gods plan is for me when I dont want to live one second longer or one second less. Everythings programmed, for whatever the reasons are, and so its important for you to be praying for that. We have plaques on a lot of our machines that you saw down there. It says, For (so-and-so), for a happy, holy death. Were all going to die. A hundred and twenty years ago, everybody that lived, theyre dead. Youre going to die. When that happens, you want to carry a bucket of graces and prayers.

So, the responsibility we have, Our Lady's asking for us, is showing us to live in the physical world, but always have our thoughts and one foot in the physical world. People want to stay in the physical realm rather than spiritual. They only want to step in the spiritual realm when something happens. Dont wait for that. On this pilgrimage youre on, you make a decision to go deeper into that, and dont cling and hold onto problems and be worrying about them because you cant fix it, but God can.

May 8, 1986 message says,

you are the ones responsible for the messages

So, Shes putting a grave responsibility on you. Catholics are trying to go to the priest, go to the bishop, go to the Pope, whatever. Shes not telling that for them. Shes not telling us to go to the priest. People go to Medjugorje. They get excited. Im going to get my priest involved with this and get the priest to do this, and the priest to do that. Its not their commission. Shes come to the people. Shes come to you. And everybody who goes to Medjugorje always, Ill get my priest to do this. Forget that. Our Lady cant change things inside the Church now. Youre the Church. Youre the renewal. And it took me a long time to accept that because when Our Lady started saying, You are an apostle, and that took twenty years before She started saying that. You are My apostles. Well, I had trouble with it because the bishops were the apostles. And then Our Lady gave a message that says, You, my apostles And then She ended at the end about the bishops, your shepherds She said. The shepherds are My Sons apostles. Our Lady is literally here to raise up a body of people that literally are the apostles of this time. The question is, do you want to accept that? Will you accept that? If you accept it, its a big responsibility.

So, She says,

you are the ones responsible for the messages

The priests give us the Sacraments, and if a priest starts doing Medjugorje, [SLAMS PODIUM] theyre squashed, over and over and over. satan is in the Church. hes always been. And Our Lady says, Wherever I go, My Sons there, but so does satan. satan is in Medjugorje. satan is here. he goes to holy places. hes not going to Rome where the saints used to say, it only takes one sleeping devil to watch Rome and take care of it, but a saint, it takes a whole legion of devils to make him fall. Whats first important is what Our Lady says in the same message. Youre responsible for your job. Everybody has a job. Everybody works. The kids, theyve got their homework. Theyve got their school. If youre born, as soon as you can start doing things, youve got a job. Even these little kids have a job. Maddalena! Maddalena, come here! Maddalena! Maddalena! Over here. Come see Papa. Is she coming? Alright. MaddalenaHey Maddalena! [LAUGHTER] Come here. Come here. [KISSES MADDALENA MULTIPLE TIMES] Thats her job. [LAUGHTER] Shes got a job. When youre born, youve got a job. Theres things that you doThings just happen. Its in your heart. Their job is to play. [TO MADDALENA] Youre free. [LAUGHTER]

What is a vessel? A vessel is something that carries things. What is that? It transports. Our Lady says in this message,

the source of grace is here, but you, dear children, are the vessels which transport

Look at the verbiage of Our Lady. Vessel, and transport.

are the vessels which transport the gifts. Therefore, dear children, I am calling you to do your job

And even a little infant has a job like we just showed you.

I am calling you to do your job with responsibility. Each one shall be responsible according to [their] own ability

Whatever your skills are, whatever you do, whatever your abilities are, if its an architect or its whatever, or a mailman, whatever it may be, are you glorifying God through it, or are you just doing it secularized? Its going to disappear. Its going away. If you own a company, if you work somewhere, you have to sanctify that. Again, going back to the Miraculous Medjugorje Round, we sanctified our money because we know the Miraculous Medal creates miracles. Theres a grace with it, and Our Lady reinvigorated it in 1989 to Marija. I was shocked about that, on the Feast of the Miraculous Medal, that Our Lady upped the ante on that. And She said, whoever carries this, you pray for them. That wasnt said in Rue de Bac 180 years ago. It was just said they just wear it. And now, She adds that, if they carry that. So, if youre in the banking industryThe banking industry is not glorifying God. So, a lot of people catch themselves when they start looking at where I work and what Im doing, its troubling. Its difficult.

So, going back to Ivanka, Shes talking about youll be enslaved, it is something in a situation that people cant escape that. But if you have to start doing what you do, you get fired for it and then God will lead you to where you will need to lead to.

Our Lady said on November 2, 2012,

Do not take the given responsibility lightly

August, 1984

Your responsibility is to accept Divine peace

Not your peace, not mans peace, Divine peace. You cant get Divine peace without the Divine. You cant get the Divine without prayer, sacrifice, fasting and penance. Sins not a problem. You say, Woah, what are you saying? Sins not a problem because Jesus died to wipe it away. You confess and do penance for it. Whats not erased are those who do not acknowledge sin. Thats the problem in the world today. Nothings a sin. Thats why Our Ladys not coming into the Church, because the Church, its building up there. Youre the Church. You want to go with whats going on? Because I wanted to knowI wanted to know what to do with this mission. I prayed and prayed and prayed really hard, did penances, asked, Mary, what is the mission? What do You want me to do here? And in a flash, it was given. Its downstairs in the vestibule, far to the left. Its called Rebuilding the Church. And remember as you read that, 1989, we didnt know anything that we know now with scandal. And when you read that, just because God gives you something, doesnt mean you understand what youre saying. I didnt understand it. I knew I had to write down what I was given, instantly, in one second. I ran out of the Field because I was afraid I was going to forget it. And thats documentation that that was done in 1989. And then all this comes out, and youll read exactly how Our Lady explained it to me. And I dont have to prove anything because its in documents. Its been printed. Weve talked about it for years, way before the news came out. So, I was writing something that I wasnt even aware of, but I was describing exactly what was going on with the Church. While youre here, go there and read that very, very carefully and very slowly and two or three times and contemplate what that means. Itll speak to you because its straight from Heaven.

June 2, 2012

My children, great is the responsibility

Why is it great? Because Our Lady is here to save the whole world. She just gave us a message. What did She say?

satan wants to destroythe earth on which you walk

How more literally can you get than that? Where do you walk? You walk on the earth. What is the earth? Its the earth. Its where we live. Its our home.

June 18, 2010

this time

This is ten years ago.

this time is a time of responsibility

If you love Our Lady, if you want to get close to God, youve got to realize, Ive got a responsibility. I cant ignore the responsibility. If you go to work when you go back home, or youve got some obligation youve got to do, youre responsible for that. Never, ever has Our Lady been given a greater responsibility in the history of Her being as She is doing right now. The first greatest responsibility She had was the birth of the Savior and raise Him all the way to death. This is the second biggest thing Our Lady's been given. Not Fatima, not Guadalupe, not something ten centuries ago. This is the biggest thing, the second biggest task, that She has ever been given because we are at the brink of our civilization ending and the world.

this time is a time of responsibility, live my messages responsibly

You can reject it. You can not accept this. You can walk away from here. You dont have to go through conversion because its not forced. You cant be an apostle because, Well, Ive got to do this. This is a responsibility and youre grumbling in your heart, or This is something I didnt want to do. Youve got to pray to get the desire. The desire gives you the strength to continue with it because satans going to immediately try to stop you. Everything. Thats why we had so much persecution. Thats why weve got garbage all over the internet.

this time is a time of responsibility, live my messages responsibly. Dear children, I desire for you to do worksnot words

Many people go to Medjugorje, thats all they talk about. Medjugorje, Our Lady's appearing. They want the fluff. Theyre like a butterfly going to nectar, nectar, nectar on the flowers. A lot of Medjugorjes walk is bitter. Its not always sweet, but it does give something. It gives contentment. Our Lady said on March 18, 2015,

Do not permit for all that is of this earth to distance you from the true cognition of the contentment in the communion with my Son

If youre discontented, and you want to be contentment, what do you have to do? Immediately today, God, what is your will? I want to do that. Im praying to discover that. You are in Gods will, you immediately have contentment, even if youre suffering from bad decisions, tragic things in family. You say, I want Gods will, because once you start doing Gods will, then you get the flood of contentment. It doesnt mean you won't suffer from bad things thats happened. You wont be in a situation where youre always getting depressed or your past is locked in your mentality, cant escape. You escape through Gods will. And if youre in prison, the POWsOne of the highest POWs in the Vietnam war was from Alabama. What kept him alive, he said, and mentally, was the Rosary. They were so starving that they would be praying for a roach to crawl through their cell so they could eat it. Jeremiah Denton. Hes the one that got off and saluted and kissed the ground. He was the highest-ranking officer. He wrote a book called, When Hell Was in Session. Its a good book. Read it. Its amazing the torture, what they went through.

true cognition of the contentment in the communion with my SonTherefore, my children, pray so that the Holy Spirit can lead you into truth

Why? Because we dont have truth. You can talk to somebody in the pew and be just the opposite of what you believe because theyre not in truth. Theyre getting the information from the media. And you cant say anything to them. And we have people telling us who are listening to bad media. We dont get truth from the media, even good media. We dont look at that. We go to the source.

you into truth, can help you to come to know it, and through that knowledge of the truth that you may be one with the Heavenly Father and with my Son

So, if you want to be happy, no matter where you are in your life, you want to start experiencing joy, you take the responsibility for these messages, put them in your life, no matter how difficult it is, because what happens with that, Our Lady says, after the Father with my Son,

That is the cognition which gives happiness on earth

In Lourdes, Bernadette was told by Our Lady, I cant make you happy on this earth. Thats a contradiction. No, its not a contradiction, because in that period of time, it was in a position that She could give that. Our Lady's here to show us to live and be close to the earth, close to God, have that cognition that we can be happy.

I was with Marija in the hospital on that first 1988 trip of hers, and were sitting there. I said, Marija, has Our Lady ever told you what She told Bernadette? And its really pretty amazing to sit down with somebody thats seeing the Virgin Mary and then talk about St. Bernadette, that she saw the Virgin Mary, and asking this visionary, Did Our Lady ever tell you, Marija, like She did Bernadette, I cant promise you that youll be happy in this life? Now, she was underneath communism, a lot of difficulties. Shes fixing to donate a kidney. She had a lot of difficulties, a lot of attacks from satan. And she says, No! Our Lady wants me to be happy. Our Lady wants us all to be happy. And here she says that, March 18, 2015,

That is the cognition which gives happiness on earth

You can be happy on this earth, no matter what has happened. If you surrender and give everything to God, everything to Our Lady, everything to Jesus, and live for Them, for Him, not for yourself.

One of the things Our Lady showed me very quick is get away from the dollarthe need for money. You say, Well, I cant do that. Well, we create here things straight from the soil. You saw the studio. Weve got a hundred dollar a foot crown molding in there. What did it cost us? Zero. Almost nothing. Weve got a sawmill. Once you pay for that, we write that off and stop looking at that. Weve got a molder that we run the wood right through there. Its just our labor. And if youre not trying to make a business out of this, when you crank it up, it can sit there for three weeks. We dont care. We need it so we dont have to spend money to go buy something like that. And to build a studio like thatIts fifteen layers of sound and everything, and its got to float because weve got a big press downstairs, the vibrations, cutters and things like that. You saw how noisy it is. So, it had to be floating. Its basically separate from the building the way its built. Easily 100,000 plus. We didnt put $5,000 into it.

So, our whole life has been, how do we get away from cash. Well, you say, well, were asking this and were asking for four million dollars or five million dollars for land to do that. Yeah, we have to raise money, but our persons, ourselves, we dont want money. I dont want royalties. The way you financially structure this is, we do have to raise money. This is a four-story addition over here. We had to raise money for that. But we buy our equipment that a contractor may be using. Well go buy the equipment. Instead of paying the contractor the same money, well buy the machine. So, in essence, the machine is free. You say, Well, how do you buy an $80,000 machine for free? Well, if we ask a contractor to come out here and he wants $90,000 for excavation, and we can buy a machine for the same price or for $80,000, then instead of paying him, and he gets the check, and then he walks off. Weve got the building or the excavation done for that part, and he keeps his equipment, and hes using it. We rent it from him. So, through the years, we will buy a piece of equipment, and its really, literally, free. You say, How can it be free? Because we wouldnt have that machine after we got the construction. Were going to have to pay the contractor anyway. Ive been doing that for years. I did that in my business. And we just continue this. Im just telling you that, how we have gotten away from the dollar, and our equipment can be there and be like money in the bank. Its money in the bank for us because we dont need money.

And so, were showing people how to get into these systems. The way to do it, if you get you a cow, and youre just by yourself, dont evenjust keep buying your milk. Let the calf be drinking. But if something happens, a crash, you can make the calf into veal and then youve got milk, because, really, you have to have a community to make this work. The whole direction of the messages is not just to be praying, fasting penance. Its to get yourself away from a system that is not of God. And Im telling you, not me, Im speaking in Our Lady's words, Our Lady saying, Im telling you, this systems going away. It is not glorifying God. And Im not saying that to scare you, and you might say, Wow. What am I going to do? How am I going to do this? Well, the solution is one thing: its community.

I was in Medjugorje and the this lady comes up, and she says, Oh, I read everything you write. Im listening to everything youre doing. My camper is full of food so when something happens, Im coming to Caritas. [LAUGHTER] I said, Dont come to our place. Were not a refuge. We dont believe in that. Its The Corona Vision. Small communities. Go to your church. Put out in the bulletin, Were looking for people to buy 200 acres together. But see, it takes sacrifice. And everybody puts 50,000. Somebody else put 300,000 into it. Whatever you do. Its not about your money. The hardest thing for people to give up, not the money, is their opinion, because opinions keepYou dont want to go in community if youre for Auburn and this person is for Alabama. [LAUGHTER] How do you solve that? Drop your sports. Its not glorifying God. They desecrate a flag that men have died for to give us liberty. Its holy. Its sacred. And you tell me NFLs not going away? The basketball? All the BLM, all this stuff, is not glorifying God.

Our kids sports is out there playing with a deer. Well, weve got a dog that chases that deer. You should see that. And then weve got ponies that, once they get those out there, youve got the ponies and the deer. Youve got that. The day before yesterday we had pigs out there. And its a joy. Our rosarys not contemplative. Its not deep, but its so joyful. And Our Lady says that. Pray until prayer becomes a joy These kids have never, ever thought in their mentality not going out in the Field, not saying, Oh, I dont want to go out there today. Weve never heard that. Its just what we do. Do you drink water? Its just natural, and its just like drinking water. Its natural for our children to be out there. In fact, its one of the greatest joys of the day. Theyre out there playing constantly. They play; we pray. And people sometimes think it may be disrespectful. I understand Our Lady. Its a joy for Our Lady to see these kids free, not being told to get on their knees and pray, to watch them be raised every day of their life, rain, hurricanes, tornadoes, lightning, the flagpoles been struck. We felt it in the ground before getting shocked. Whatever weather, were out there, no matter how cold, how severe, whatevers going on. Were out there every day. These kids are out there ever day of their life. But they get at a point in their age where, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, they begin to kneel down. We never tell them to kneel down. Weve been doing this for thirty-four years. We have not told one of the youth to go kneel down and pray.

[THEME MUSIC]

[REYES]

And so, that was a Friend of Medjugorje speaking to the Caritas Pilgrimage group here at Caritas of Birmingham in Alabama. A Friend of Medjugorje said earlier today that we will be planning more of these pilgrimages in the future. If you keep close to Medjugorje.com and to the Caritas mission, well keep you updated about when the next pilgrimage will take place. We thank all of those who have written to us that have said they are praying for the group here, and we certainly appreciate your prayers, and we have been praying also for you from the sacred sites here at Caritas.

And so, ending his encounter with the pilgrims here, here is a Friend of Medjugorje to conclude.

[THEME MUSIC]

[A FRIEND OF MEDJUGORJE]

What I want to end with is your responsibility, your investment that you put in here in these days and your heart and how deep you go into this, to turn everything to God, everything to Our Lady, physically, spiritually, traumas, whatever, begins for you the walk toward the apostle. And if you do that, you will get contentment and happiness. You can be very sad but still be happy and content. It doesnt mean you wont have sorrow. Our Lady is standing at the foot of the Cross. Her Son dies. She was wounded immediately when He took His last breath. And that cold Body that She holds and held at the foot of the Cross was the same Body that was warm when He was a Baby. And yet, She knew the joy of the future of what Her Son did. So, dont think happiness is just something shallow and fake. You can be in deep sorrow, deep trouble or difficulties, whatever, but the contentment is what She says, and Ill end with this again.

I am imploring you: be vigilant and open for truth. DO not permit for all that is of this earth to distance you from the true cognition of the contentment in the communion with my Son

Thats the key. If youre in communion with Jesus, no matter what youre going through, you can be content, because nothings by chance. And with that knowledge of the truth, She says,

you may be one with the Heavenly Father and with my Son. That is the cognition which gives happiness on earth and opens the door of eternal life and infinite love
