Thank God, the political situation is becoming more stable. Some refugees are returning, and we hope that especially next Spring many more will be able to do so, in order to again begin with a normal life. Complete reconciliation is not so easy, yet we still hope that it is possible to heal all wounds and then to live in peace along-side one another. This month's message is the message with which Mary wishes to prepare us for Christmas. Regarding prayer we all know that in nearly every message Mary kept urging us to do so.
Prayer is the first condition so that anything at all can happen.
But we may not forget that when it comes to prayer that there are two levels of conversion. First, when someone who does not pray decides to start, then one can say that it is a conversion toward prayer, but the second conversion ought then to occur in prayer, and this means that we slowly change the reason for praying. People pray easily when there are problems to face and when they themselves need something, and this too is good. BUT one day it must also happen that we begin to pray out of our love for God. Then prayer will always be possible, and prayer will become free of any conditions that we may have within us.
