Visionaries: “We can not do it anymore! Why all these sacrifices and these sufferings?” ..Then the Virgin Mary Placed in Their View the Path to Salvation and After That They Understood

 Then when a doctor accused them of lying to try to destroy the communist regime, Jakov, who was only 9 years old, clenched his fist and slammed him on the table saying: ‘We do not lie! I am ready to give my life for Our Lady! Dr. Ante Bosnjak, director of the Čitluk hospital was also present, and that behavior was a strong confirmation for him that the visionaries were telling the truth. Through the testimony of little Jakov in particular, he received the grace and gift of faith “.

That day on the mountain of apparitions the crowd is more numerous than ever. When the children reach the usual place and begin to pray, the Virgin appears to them immediately. On that occasion, she invites everyone to believe: “There is only one God and one faith. Believe firmly and do not be afraid of anything! “

But during that apparition the visionaries also have a particular vision.

The visionary Marija recalls: “Over the years, Our Lady has shown us Jesus suffering several times, especially on Good Friday. But the first time was the day when the communists brought us the visionaries to the psychiatric hospital of Mostar a few days after the beginning of the apparitions.

They mistreated and frightened us by threatening that we would stay there in the asylum. It was very hard for us. In the evening, during the apparition, we protested to the Madonna: ‘We can not do it anymore! Why all these sacrifices and these sufferings? ‘.

Then Our Lady showed us the suffering Jesus, all bloody, with a crown of thorns and with a disfigured face, and told us: ‘As he did, so offer yourselves too!’ Since then we have never protested but we have always offered to God with love every sacrifice and suffering thinking about how much Jesus has suffered for us, for our salvation “.

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favor to ask. More people are reading Mystic Post than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. And unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Mystic Post’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe our perspective matters – because it might well be your perspective, too.

High quality journalism is essential intellectual nourishment. The generosity of providing such a service without a paywall deserves recognition and supportGiacomo P, Italy

I’ve been enjoying Mystic Posts for several years now. Today, when so much seems to be going wrong in the world, Mystic Post is working hard to provide truthful Catholic news. I want to support that Robb R. UK

I appreciate there not being a paywall: it is more democratic for the media to be available for all and not a commodity to be purchased by a few. I’m happy to make a contribution so others with less means still have access to information. Annonymous Donator

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps to support it, our future would be much more secure.

Thank you
