When We Need Healing
"We can learn to recognize the signs of needing God's direct healing.... if certain memories of events from even twenty years ago could still make my stomach turn or cause tears to flood my eyes... pains that didn't go away, no matter how much I wanted them to, or how much I analyzed or understood them or sought counsel.... For really, these weren't just scars; memories of experiences that are still fresh with emotion are in reality open wounds..."
Holly Pierlot, "A Mother's Rule of Life", New Hampshire: Sophia Institute Press, 2004, p62
"The Lord says: my plans for you are peace and not disaster; when you call to me, I will listen to you, and I will bring you back to the place from which I exiled you." (Jeremiah 29:11, 12, 14)

Sometimes memories, sin and vivid experiences in our pasts can influence our lives in the here and now - and not always in a beneficial way. Many women live with pain and suffer greatly, but I know God wants to heal this. He wants us healthy and happy, not burdened and struggling.
If this is happening in your life, consecrate yourself to the Blessed Mother and pray the rosary. Her whole job is to give birth to Jesus in our hearts and lives. As Jesus commended himself to her and trusted her with his own upbringing, he asks us to entrust ourselves to her too -- as he said at the Cross, "Behold your Mother."
Ask Mary to put someone in your path who can help bring God's direct healing into your life. Remember the promise: "You shall receive all that you ask through the recitation of the rosary". And then, be open and willing to "Do whatever He asks of you".
