My beloved children, I thank you for heeding My call in your hearts and for kneeling in prayer.
I see so much pride in the hearts of men, My children. I am here to save you.
When I speak to you of humility and pride, I remind you that Lucifer was the most beautiful angel of all. But because of his pride, he thought he could be like God; he lacked the humility to understand that no one can be like God.
I want to tell you this: no one can be like God. You, with your free will, can choose: to take the path of Lucifer, or to choose humility, to kneel before God, and to follow His laws.
Pray also for our leaders and for the Church, that they may make the right choices and walk in God’s way.
Now I bless you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Reflection on the message:
Our Lady once again warns us about the dangers of pride, because all sins stem from it. Pride is the rejection of our condition as creatures and of the subordinate status that naturally follows; it is the rejection of our fragility. Those who are proud think they are self-sufficient; they believe that only their own thoughts correspond to the truth; they trust only in themselves.
The proud person is arrogant; they tend to assert themselves, but in reality they do so only to fill the great void in their heart. Pride is the path that leads to isolation; it causes us to neglect our neighbor and creates a breakdown in communication with those around us. Our Lady, in fact, tells us that it is the sin of Satan, who did not accept the subordinate role of a creature (see Isaiah 14 on this subject).
Those who reject their own limitations are heading toward the greatest human tragedy. We must accept God’s will for us and decide whether to love ourselves or the truth. When we say, “No one understands me,” when we feel strongly about our rights and are convinced they are not being respected, when we fail to connect with the feelings of others—we are on the wrong path. Only humility will save us from pride and arrogance.
