“Sometimes in the time in which I lived, it was the same as the time in which you live. Tradition was important in our way of life. We clung to it, we honored it, and we grew to love it, for it gave us union of thought, unity in action, and a depth of care for each other.
When I walked away from my physical family, I walked into the tradition of a convent. It was difficult at first for I was willful, but I eventually found the tradition of solemnity, dignity, self-control and self-discipline, a help to my Spiritual growth and also a help for my Spiritual pain, plus the physical pain I endured many times all alone.
I call you My sons because of Where I am. I am Saint Bernadette. In the time you live men are trying desperately to destroy the backbone of your Faith by encouraging you, forcing you, tricking you to think differently, to act differently, to perform differently, and to accept differently, from what you know is soundness in tradition.
Each of you has a Soul. It is a Tradition of God, when a child is conceived, to immediately place within that child a Soul, a Guardian Angel, a will, plus the formation in which He decided man would be created.
Sometimes a difficult situation occurs where a child is malformed, a child is taken by God for many reasons, but there can be no question that at the moment of conception, the Soul, the Guardian Angel and the will were immediately instilled according to God’s Will. That is God’s Tradition.
Sometimes men, women, and even young people try to disrupt, destroy, what someone else has begun as a format for behavior, a formula to follow, because the individual who wants to change what is already there is insecure, doubtful, and lacks the mental capacity to understand the soundness that radiates from good tradition.
During much of my illness I would see Light and I would wonder what was in the Light. Was it God telling me something good, or something that I would have to endure to erase the sins of my thoughts, my words and my deeds?
The Light sometimes would shine brightly. Other times it appeared dim. Sometimes, when I would see the Light, I would be encouraged to forget what was wrong with me because I would feel a strength from the Light.
The Heavenly Father has given This Great Miracle to the world to enlighten the world with what is right, what is good, and to give strength to mankind to follow what God Wills for the Soul to reach out for, and that is to one day return to Him a Glowing Light of Love, Purity, bearing the name of a child ready to be called by another Name, ‘Saint’. This is not farfetched, this is reality. This, My beloved sons, is Heavenly Tradition. So be it.”
