Praise be to Jesus! Praise be to the Blessed Mother! Happy to meet you!

The world is in such chaos these days, but are all of you here faithfully following the Lord and the Blessed Mother, and practicing the Five Spiritualities well? (Amen!) Amen!

It’s not easy to live out the Five Spiritualities, is it? No matter how many times I repeat myself and speak to you over and over again, when you listen to them, you're moved, clapping, saying “Amen! Amen!” with tears in your eyes. But once you go back home, many of you quickly forget. What does this mean? It’s like a house built on sand. We should build our house on solid rock.

It is clearly stated in the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 7, verses 24 to 27: “Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock.” Right? (Yes.) We should become “a wise man.” Yet, so many build their houses on sand. Those who hear Jesus’ words but don’t act on them are like people who build their homes on sand. So, when even a slight wind blows, they are swept away.

That’s why Jesus also shared the parable of the sower. Where did Jesus sow the seeds? (On good soil!) He sowed them on good soil. However, when they failed to receive it, due to the misuse of their free will, it’s like the seed fell on the path, only to be eaten up by birds. We must listen to His Word and put it into practice, for if we don't, the Word can be eaten up by birds. And if it falls among thorns, then the thorns will grow and quickly choke it.

The world is truly in such chaos right now, and we don’t know when God will send down the chastisement. That’s why we need to wake up. No matter how much we hear and hear Words again, if we don’t observe them, of what use will they be? While I’m sure those of you here are observing His words well, I’ve seen far too many who are not.

I’ve been crying out to practice the Five Spiritualities in this world and bear a lot of fruits of the Tree of Life. But if we do wrong, the tree of evil bears fruits, doesn’t it? (Yes.) Today, I’d like to talk about “Evil Account” and “Good Account.” Let’s make plenty of deposits into our Good Account. Keep saving consistently. Now many people have already saved too much in the Evil Account. That’s not true for anyone here, right? (Amen!) But even just one bad deposit can exist.

We should be unceasingly going toward Heaven, but we shouldn’t be making deposits into the Evil Account. From now on, let's stop adding to it and quickly withdraw what’s already there. Let’s deposit a lot in Good Account so that we can be ready to be in Heaven.

How can we make more deposits into the Good Account? (The Five Spiritualities!) Amen. You're doing well today! Last time, when I asked, “What should we do to get to Heaven?” someone said, “We need to be strong.” And today, when I asked someone, they said, “We need to arm ourselves with the Five Spiritualities and be strong.” So I said, “Being strong has many meanings.” If you're just strong in character and forceful with people, you'll only end up hurting them. So we should always be gentle, and arm ourselves with the Five Spiritualities and practice them.

Jesus clearly told us not to build our house on sand. He said, “Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock.” This is also reflected in the Parable of the Ten Virgins.

The wise five virgins were prepared with oil in their lamps while waiting for the bridegroom to arrive. In contrast, the foolish virgins had their lamps without oil. Because the wise virgins had prepared oil, they were able to go into the wedding feast as soon as the bridegroom came.

However, the foolish ones said to the wise, “Give us some of your oil.” The wise ones replied, “No, for there may not be enough for us and you. Go instead to the merchants and buy some for yourselves.” While the foolish ones went off to buy oil, the door to the wedding feast was locked.

Dear all, if we don’t repent before punishment comes upon this world, what will happen to us? We don’t know where we might end up; we may fall into the blazing sulfur fire. Therefore, even if sulfur fire descends upon this world at some point, if we remain awake and practice the Five Spiritualities, our bodies may die, but our souls can ascend directly to Heaven. Let’s start anew from today. Let’s truly arm ourselves with the Five Spiritualities and practice them. Let’s make every effort with all we’ve got. If we give it our life, there’s nothing we can’t achieve.

When I worked at the beauty parlor, I commuted regularly. Julio would try to pick me up after his work. But since I had to attend to customers until late, that timing was too early for me. So, at night, I would walk home alone, and sometimes men would follow me. Once, when a man kept following me, I ran to a house and shouted, “Oppa (elder brother)! Oppa! Oppa! Oppa!” The homeowner opened the door and asked, “What oppa are you looking for?” I just said, “Shh!” (signaling that someone was following me) and then he told me, “My dear, welcome back home! Come in!” There were countless instances like this.

I would walk, saying, “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me,” yet it was still frightening when men followed me. Eventually, it became too much to continue. Around that time, I heard someone was building a new place right below the salon and the owner encouraged me to move there. She promised a three-room setup with an attic, so I signed the contract. But when it was finally built, it turned out there was only one room!

So, when I asked why it only had one room, she said she would add more rooms after the completion ceremony. But when the ceremony came, there was no sign of additional rooms. That was the end of it. I thought it would be great to have three rooms for my mother and my children, but it turned out to be just one room. How could we have lived in a room? So, I asked if she could at least install a sliding door in the middle. She replied, “Do that yourselves.”

She told us we would detach and take the sliding door when we moved out. What good is taking the door? Wow, she changed a lot! But with Semchigo as if they had given us many rooms, we can graciously offer it up. We can offer up. From a worldly perspective, we would be upset. But there’s no need to be angry. So, I accepted it as “My fault” since I planned to move there, and offered it up with Semchigo as if we had two rooms while making a sliding door ourselves.

So, when I asked them to rent us a room upstairs, they didn’t allow it either. We moved into that house, and at that time, there were no bars in front or behind our beauty parlor. Suddenly, a bar opened up here, and then another one below, and more bars kept popping up. Before I knew it, there were so many bars around.

At that time, I charged 1,000 Won for just trimming bangs. However, the madam from the bar across the street told me to do her girls' hair—both sides and bangs—for just 500 Won. Feeling sorry for them, I agreed to do it. But then they didn’t pay me. They simply signed for credit on our account. Other bar girls paid 1,000 Won each and came in after washing their hair every day, while those girls would come back to get touch-ups again just to save money. As I am meticulous, I cared for their hair to be styled again with love. Our hairdressers wouldn’t even touch the bar girls. I did it all for them with love.

When they came back, I would style their hair anew. So, how much did the hair styles cost up to that point? Since I charged 500 Won (including one more session), that breaks down to 250 Won per session. Normally, I would charge 1,500 Won for both sides and bangs, but I was only charging 250 Won per session. In the end, all those unpaid bills added up to 360,000 Won.

When the Blessed Mother began shedding Tears through Her statue, there were days when 3,000 to 4,000 people would come. So, the parish priest sent male Legion members to stand in several spots and continuously guide the visitors.

When customers entered the parlor, my hairdressers would always say, “Welcome!” I always told them, “Don’t think of styling hair as just a way to make money. Don’t become a money bug. Hairdressing is an art. Take pride in being an artist.” Because I taught them in love, they always greeted customers warmly, saying, “Welcome!” But when someone would ask, “Where is Our Lady?” they would suddenly snap, “Go that way!”

Oh, I felt so sorry for the pilgrims and kept saying, “Oh, my apologies, my aplogies.” Eventually, I realized, “I can’t continue running this beauty parlor anymore. I should quit for the sake of the Blessed Mother and to help old man Bong Il-dong regain his sight.” Even though in the 1980s, after paying all salaries and financially helping others, I still made over 2 million Won in net gain (back then, you could buy a house near the station for 700,000 Won), I decided to give up the parlor without hesitation.

I had to quit the beauty parlor, but I couldn’t even go to the bar in front to retrieve the unpaid bills. One day, I needed 20,000 Won, so around 10 a.m., I went out and saw the madam. I hesitantly asked if she could pay me back 20,000 Won first. She asked, “Did you get signatures from our girls?” I replied that they had all signed. A little later, eight of the girls, along with the madam and her husband, came out and surrounded me. They called me a “thieving b**ch,” threw me to the ground, and started beating me. They grabbed my hair and slammed and pounded my head against the cement ground, biting me and even leaving through holes in my body.

I was beaten severely from around 10 a.m. until evening, so you can imagine the extent of the assault. Meanwhile, there were so many customers at our beauty parlor, waiting for four hours, and they were beside themselves with anger. In the chaos, the bar girls came into my parlor with washbowls of water and poured them over the customers.

This truly feels like a story from a movie. Even as I reflect on it, it's hard to believe that it really happened. I’m sharing it to let you know when we receive the Lord's love, impossible things can happen. So, dear ones, offer up graciously. Whenever something happens, if you think, “Ah, the Lord loves me, and that’s why He allows me this love!” If we think this way, then what can’t we offer up?

But people often think negatively about small things and hold onto hatred, which is serious. I can’t even imagine how much has built up in their “Evil Account.” From now on, let’s practice the Five Spiritualities and never add to the Evil Account. Instead, let’s make many deposits into the Good Account.

At that time, while I was knocked down and being beaten and having my hair pulled out by those ten people, I thought, “Ah! Jesus must have been beaten like this, or even worse.” Thinking this, I could offer this up for the repentance of sinners, thinking, “Ah, I am receiving love.” However, offering up my suffering was fine, but it was difficult to see my customers suffering as well. The customers were upset and shouted that I should punish those bar people.

A little later, the bar madam came with a bundle of 10,000 Won new bills totaling 1 million Won and asked, "How much do our girls owe?" When I showed her the charge account, she slapped me hard saying, "Hey, this b**ch! I wouldn't give you money even if I had to give it to the passing beggar!" But I felt so grateful. If we could turn them into prayers, how grateful it would be! While we could get angry if we choose to, dear ones, let us be the ones to give thanks!

Every time I was slapped, I prayed, “Oh, Jesus, thank You! With each hit, may as many people as the number of these bills—100—repent. May a hundred people be saved!” If I get hit ten times, that's a thousand people, right? (Yes!) If I get hit twenty times on both sides, then two thousand people are saved. Turning our daily lives into prayers is so good like this!

But as I was crying there, one of our customers said, “Don’t cry. Don’t cry, just report them!” I replied, “No, I’m not crying because of the beating; I’m crying for how much Our Lord and the Blessed Mother must be hurting! And how pitiful those people are.” They ripped the curtains and continued to hit and bite me, leaving me unable to move a single hand, let alone style hair.

But a lady came in, showing no consideration at all. She said she couldn’t get her updos done anywhere else, insisting on having it done by me, despite seeing my condition. My hands and arms were wounded that I couldn’t use them. But what could I do? I prayed, “Lord, as You said while dying, ‘Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing,’ I will also approach this with the same heart.”

I had finished styling her hair into an updo when suddenly the bar madam burst in and shouted, “Hey, you b**ch! Is this even an updo?” She messed up the customer’s hair. Not because I was wounded, but I felt so sorry for my customers. These were people who didn’t know God. The customers were really angry and upset, but I reassured them that it was okay, saying that I was receiving love.

It all started at 10 a.m., and by 6 p.m., my husband came home from work. The madam turned to Julio and said, “Your wife is a prostitute! Why are you living with a prostitute?” She said it because people, including brothers, had been coming by to see the Blessed Mother’s Tears. She said, “At night, after you go to bed, she’s out here doing prostitute work. Do you know how many men come and go?”

Since they were involved with many men themselves, they assumed that I also did the same. She kept saying, “While you're asleep, she’s acting like a prostitute. How can you live with someone like that?” Hearing this, Julio didn’t say anything. He just went inside, knelt before the statue of the Blessed Mother, Who was weeping, and prayed.

Seeing this, one of the customers got really upset and said, "He says nothing! What kind of man is that? Why is your husband like that? How can he act like that when his wife is being treated like this? I’m getting so angry! Seriously, the nerve! He didn’t say a word and just went inside! My blood pressure is rising! It’s said you can clear yourself from being accused of theft, but not from a scandal like this, so he could’ve at least said something! How come he just went inside leaving behind such a good wife without saying a word?"

That is love. That is God's love. Do you understand? We need to feel love. If we don’t, we can’t do anything. We won’t make it to Heaven. We might live our lives in an average, easy way, sure. We can manage just fine. But walking the narrow path is difficult. The wide path is easy to follow, yet we have to walk the narrow one. Even though it’s a difficult and tiring road, we should arm ourselves with the Five Spiritualities and practice them so that we can feel love and keep going. At the very least, those of us who claim to know the Lord and the Blessed Mother should truly wake up, feel Their love, and be renewed.

I calmly told the customers, "It's not right for humans to fight against each other. The battle we must win is not between people, but against the devil and Satan." I explained that because the Blessed Mother shed Tears here, the devils were trying to torment me like this.

The customers were unaware on the devil, but as I kept talking, one of them eventually said, "Wow, no wonder the Blessed Mother is crying here as you’re so kind! I’ve made up my mind now!" I asked, "What decision?" And they replied, “Starting tomorrow, I'm going to church! Wow, it’s very good to go to church like this!" There were several people saying “Wow, it’s very good to go to church like this!” at the time. They all ended up going to church.

Seeing the situation, I said, “How can you not get your hair done? You should get it done somewhere else.” But they responded, “It’s okay. I’m happy just being here with you,” and didn’t leave. The customers filled the beauty parlor. Since I couldn’t even do their hair. I thought it would be better if they just left, but they stayed. Dear ones, just like you share love and don’t want to leave because of it, these people stayed even without getting their hair done.

Then, officers from the police station came and quietly whispered to me, “Please, file a report against those people.” I asked, “Pardon? Why Sir?” They said, “Those people are truly bad. Whenever something happens, they team up with a high-ranking official at the police headquarters and get away with anything. If they’re brought into the station, those women even urinate right there. They’ve committed several offenses, so don’t let them off easily.” But I didn’t file a report.

That night, when I went into my room, the bar couple suddenly barged in, yelling and slapping me again. Even when being slapped, I was grateful, praying, “Oh, Jesus, thank You. You are allowing me to taste Your love once more.” And I apologized, saying, “I’m sorry, it’s my fault.” What did I do wrong? Since I was there, it was my fault. If someone else had been running the beauty parlor, this wouldn’t have happened.

Dear all, when you face trials, realize it’s because you love God, and the devil is envious. We need to recognize this! We need to feel it!

The couple barged into the room where Our Lady was weeping through Her statue, shouting and cursing loudly. I apologized saying I was wrong, accepting it as my fault since I was there, and offered it up for them as Prayers of Life. Dear ones, I’ve always said that echoes definitely return, haven’t I? (Amen!) This echo came back! Sometimes it can take a long time, and sometimes it comes back immediately. But in this case, it came back right away. The woman apologized, saying, “U-ram’s mom (U-ram is Julia’s son), I did wrong, I’m sorry,” and we reconciled.

The next day, there was a pilgrimage from the secondary station in Ja-eun-do. Dear all, why am I telling you this story? Let us all accept everything as “My Fault” and live with forgiveness. Instead of getting distracted over small things, let’s graciously offer them up with love as “My Fault.”

At that time, I was supposed to join a pilgrimage to Saenamteo, Mirinae, and even Mountain Seoraksan. So, the next morning despite being severely beaten and in so much pain that I could hardly move my hands, my entire family gathered early. We bought fruits and loaded them into the car, all with our own money. Right, Mr. Rufino? (Yes!)

Even though I had been beaten so badly and was exhausted, I accepted everything as “My fault” and offered it up graciously. After the pilgrimage, I made sure the last group of people left safely, and then returned home. The fatigue hit me hard, but as soon as I got back, the bar that had assaulted me called for me again.

Then, my hair dressers anxiously said, "Sister, what should we do? They say when the bar girls run away, they burn tongs and brand them. What if they brand you?" I replied, "Well, if they do, I'll offer it up to the Lord and go. If I get branded, I can offer it for the repentance of sinners." I entrusted everything completely to the Lord and went.

Oh my! The women who had been so vicious before suddenly turned into angels. They said, "Sister, welcome! Come in," standing on both sides of the entrance. I thought to myself, “What is happening?” When I went inside, the bar madam greeted me, "Oh, welcome, Uram's mom." And she handed me 360,000 Won in full without taking off a single Won. She said, “Uram's mom has been so kind and lived so well in this neighborhood that if anyone still owes anything, everyone will pay it back.” (She pledged to become Catholic.)

I mentioned that echo will definitely return, and indeed, it did, right? (Yes!) Even if we don’t know whether the echo comes back tomorrow, the day after, a year later, or even ten years later, if it doesn’t return quickly, it means we have plenty of time to make penances.

So, even if we experience unfairness during our lives, let’s accept it as “my fault” and offer it graciously. Let’s dedicate much sacrifice and penances to the Lord. By firmly holding onto the hands of the Blessed Mother, Who connects heaven and earth, and by praying, sacrificing, making penances, and living a life of Offering up, we can improve our lives with a heart of self-denial and poverty, If we fully arm ourselves with the Five Spiritualities and practice them, we’ll go straight to Heaven. Amen! Let us all, by practicing the Five Spiritualities, be ready to enter Heaven. What do we need the most, then? (The Five Spiritualities!) Yes, we need the Five Spiritualities, but it is love that makes it all possible.

Now, let us meditate well on the Messages that Jesus and the Blessed Mother have given us today.

This is the Message of Love from Jesus on November 4, 2006.

“All My beloved children in the world!
I, Who love you so much, in order to thoroughly wash away your sordid stains, by transfusing into you the Blood that I shed while hanging on the cross like this, intend to save you with the eternal life earned through the immeasurable and boundless love and the salvation of the cross. You should never forget this.

Without looking back regardless of the situation you are in, You who rush to Me through My Mother, who is the Helper in My Work of Salvation, the Mediatrix of Graces, and the Co-Redemptrix, will be recognized as good grains at the time of the Last Judgment. At My Table in My Kingdom, You will be escorted by the angels and blessed with eternal happiness together with My Mother. I bless you so that boundless blessing, love, and peace may be with you always.” Amen!

This is the Message of Love from the Blessed Mother on November 9, 2001.

“My beloved children who have been called! Bear in mind that this world has already fallen into the crisis of turning into ashes because of extreme sins, but thanks to the fervent prayers, sacrifices and reparations by you, the little souls, my Son Jesus gave you one more chance. At least you should become completely dissolved in the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Who has become the sacrificial victim for reconciliation, and my Immaculate Heart; and, by turning your lives into prayers, bind up the Lord’s bleeding wounds, stitch them up, and clean them.

Do not hesitate or delay but tightly hold My hands, who am the string that ties Heaven and earth together, put the Messages of Love into practice, and thus participate in the work of saving this world. By doing this, join in the eternal heavenly banquet in the midst of the cheers of the angels and Saints in Heaven, where there is no death, starvation, thirst, sadness, suffering, or sighs any longer but where there is only filled with love. Participate in the glory.” 

Amen. May the Messages of Love from Jesus and the Blessed Mother be realized to all of you as proclaimed!

Now, let us place our hands on our hearts and confess to the Lord and the Blessed Mother. Let us reflect on the wrongs we have committed up to this point. Have we accepted and acted on the words Jesus speaks for our sake, building our houses on rock or on sand? If we have built on sand, let us renew ourselves and build on rock, so that no matter what storms or tsunamis come our way, we can stand firm and remain unshaken. Let us become wise people.

If we know what time a thief will come, we can be on guard and catch him. However, if we don’t know when the thief will strike, regretting it afterward is useless. The saying goes, “It’s too late to fix the barn after losing the cow.” When God punishes the world, we must make sure we are not left unsaved. We don’t know when or what might happen.

Dear ones, we should wake up. We should arm ourselves with the Five Spiritualities and practice them. This is a time for separating the good grains from the chaff. I believe, if we make an effort to the point of weeping tears of blood, beyond our bleeding struggles, we can offer it up.

Let’s not overlook anything, nor blow away even a speck of dust without prayer. If we offer up everything in our daily lives as prayers of life, we will surely be escorted by angels on the last day and enjoy eternal bliss beside the Lord and the Blessed Mother in Heaven, where we will live the life of resurrection, filled with love, joy and peace—where there is no hunger, no hatred, and no conflict.

Dear ones, please don't be complacent. As I mentioned before, we must not allow complacent thoughts. We don’t know when and what might happen. Even if we experience injustice, let’s offer it up graciously. We should also resolve our issues—not harbor bitter feelings or misunderstandings, but clear them up. And we need to be considerate of others.

Let’s place our hands on our hearts and fully confess ourselves to the Lord. Let’s reflect on how we have lived up until now, whether we have justified, made excuses, or rationalized our actions. Looking at others’ faults, instead of understanding their weakness, if we judged or criticized them… When needed, we should resolve any misunderstandings with them.

However, many people tend to criticize. Seeking advice from a leader is not the same as criticizing. Yet, if we continue to speak negatively about others, we lead them into sin as well. If we have done something wrong, let’s make bloody tearful efforts to amend it. If we lack wisdom, let’s pray for wisdom; if we lack discernment, let’s pray for discernment. We should not torment or burden others.

We must live a life in which our gratitude never dries up. Saying, “My apologies” or “I’m sorry” should never be the end of our words. Like saying “My apologies,” should follow up with, “I won’t do it again.” Also like “I’m sorry,” we should follow up with, “I won’t do it again. I will start anew.” This is how we ought to be. As those who have met each other in the love of the Lord and the Blessed Mother, we should not end by just saying, “I’m sorry.”

We always need to make resolutions to do better next time. Many people simply say, “I was wrong,” but that alone is not enough. Making resolutions is always necessary. We shouldn’t fail to make resolutions. Let us resolve today to do them well, so that we can arm ourselves with the Five Spiritualities and practice them!

When we repent, God heals us. What is repentance? It is not just about crying and seeking God in regret. True repentance is living according to God's word.

Yet here, despite showing us countless times—over and over—the miracles of the sublimest and purest love that we cannot measure, many still fail to follow accordingly. If punishment were to be sent down right now, how many of us would be ready to go to Heaven directly? However, starting today, let us stay awake and pray by practicing the Five Spiritualities, so that no matter what happens, we can be ready to enter Heaven.

Truly live Jesus, Who is with us! Today, may You receive praise, gratitude, and glory from us, unworthy ones, forever and ever. Lord, nothing is impossible for You. You raised Lazarus from the dead, brought the widow's son back to life, and restored Jairus' daughter. Not only during the time you were on earth but also in this era, You have raised the dead and saved countless dying people. May the approval of the Blessed Mother of Naju come quickly, so that all Your children of the world may be saved. Let the miracles of love bestowed by Jesus and the Blessed Mother be realized throughout the world as they are.

We are now in the generation of separating the good grains from the chaff. May all these children chosen as good grains, without exception of a single soul, not turn back, nor glance aside, nor disembark from Mary’s Ark of Salvation, but always remain on board to ascend to Heaven. To do so, help us fully arm ourselves with the Five Spiritualities and practice them. Have mercy on us all, so we may reveal Your glory.

There is so much work to be done in Naju, but there are not enough workers. Jesus, please send workers who can serve in Naju. There are many talented individuals around the false prophets, but there are far too few who can work here, where immeasurable and countless miracles have been performed. Jesus, may You personally intervene. When the Holy Spirit works, we can accomplish countless tasks even with the few we have. Grant us the wisdom of the Holy Spirit, the knowledge of the Holy Spirit, and the discernment of the Holy Spirit, so that we may reveal Your glory. Please have mercy on us all.

Jesus, You know this well. There is so much work to be done in this pressing time, so please grant us all health in spirit and body. Since we are unable to repent on our own, please bestow upon us the grace of repentance first. Help us to reconcile, to forgive, and to love one another.

Please place your hands on your painful areas. Jesus, may every single soul gathered here without exception receive surgery through the Holy Spirit. Please perform an operation on every cell from head to toe through Your Holy Spirit without exception of single cell. There are many organs in the head; restore the head fully to normal. Heal our eyes, mouth, nose, ears, heart, and all our internal organs. Please heal any cancerous lumps.

First, please heal the cancerous lumps of our souls. Root out all our bad habits. Root out our pride. Heal our souls and bodies so that we may all be reborn in gentle love. Thus, may You receive glory, may the Blessed Mother be consoled, and may our gratitude never dry up.

🎼
Beloved brothers and sisters, why have you forgotten repentance?
Repentance with tears brings forth miracles.
Paul and Silas opened the prison doors of Philippi
with their songs of praise, with praise, with the songs of praise.

Who desires a loveless home?
In a barren home, we have lived.
All of my sorrows, I confess to the Lord.
And I will live with love, with love, with love.

Beloved brothers and sisters, we have all been called.
Mary’s Ark of Salvation, at the Blessed Mother’s Mountain, we’ve gathered.
May our barren souls be saved through repentance.
As the children who have been called, let us practice the Messages. Amen!
