Why Does Heaven Complain?

[Eliz28]

There are three aspects characteristic of apparitions, two of them being the expression of a complaint and an appeal. Why a complaint? Despite being given everything to be happy, man is indifferent and ungrateful.

This ties into what Mother Teresa calls “the greatest misery”, that man neither knows God nor how much he is loved.

What should our response be? We must first ask ourselves if we want Jesus to know our love in return. As in the parable of the Canaanite woman, Jesus is moved by the humble and beseeching heart. We are called to love Jesus with the fullness of our human capacity.

Jesus asks St. Margaret Mary: “Will you watch one hour with me in the Garden, as my apostles did not do?”

It is interesting that Mother Teresa says that the greatest misery is that man does not know how much he is loved by God. Then a book is written about her: Come Be My Light about how her spiritual darkness where God loves all but her.

God loves us, but has given us the free will to reject Him. He gives us every good thing, including the sacrifice of His own Son, yet so many turn away from Him. We can be our own worst enemy. Can’t put all the blame for doing evil onto Satan. We bring much of the evil and its consequences onto ourselves.
