SO MANY things to be picked up from ghost-seeing mystic Maria Simma (died 2004 in Austria) who got so much information about the afterlife from souls from Purgatory. Such souls had been her regular visitors since she was aged 25 (she was born 1915).
What makes her, nay, all the information she had handed down to us, credible is that she is now up for beatification and is likely to be beatified. Here are some of the things she said.
– When a person dies and leaves his earthly body, the person will fi nd himself having a “transfi gured body”
– a person is given a few minutes to finally choose between good and evil at the moment of death;
– when a ghost appears to you, don’t ask for his identity, but rather for what he wants and there are better chances a reply will follow;
– you can seek the assistance of persons in Purgatory by virtually bribing them with a rosary or a Mass in return;
– if you have to seek assistance from a specific soul in Purgatory over a conked out car, it’s better to seek one who had skills in mechanics when he was still on earth, as persons bring with them knowledge of their skills in the next life.
These, among many other most interesting information. Now, to go on with the freshest message from the Blessed Mother in her latest apparition in Medjugorje where she has been appearing with messages for mankind since 1981.
The following was our Blessed Mother’s message as conveyed to visionary Mirjana last Dec. 2:
“Dear children, with a motherly love and a motherly patience I am looking at your ceaseless wandering and how lost you are. That is why I am with you. “I desire to help you to first find and come to know yourself, so that, then, you would be able to recognize and to admit everything that does not permit you to get to know the love of the Heavenly Father, honestly and wholeheartedly.
“My children, the Father comes to be known through the cross. Therefore, do not reject the cross. Strive to comprehend and accept it with my help. When you will be able to accept the cross you will also understand the love of the Heavenly Father; you will walk with my Son and with me; you will differ from those who have not come to know the love of the Heavenly Father, those who listen to Him but do not understand Him, those who do not walk with Him – who have not come to know Him.
“I desire for you to come to know the truth of my Son and to be my apostles; that, as children of God, you may rise above the human way of thinking and always, and in everything, seek God’s way of thinking, anew.
“My children, pray and fast that you may be able to recognize all of this which I am seeking of you. Pray for your shepherds and long to come to know the love of your Heavenly Father, in union with them. Thank you.”
