So much Grace flows from the mail!
Thomas F. Ulisse sent us the photo above, which seems to symbolize such anointing. God shines through His Creation.
That’s one reason the devil seeks to destroy nature. (Another is that he can’t create anything himself.)
Some have found Grace, of late, with a new very unofficial devotion they are calling, “Our Lady Tear of Joy.” Take it to discernment.
For example:
“On October 30, 2019, my husband went to the hospital with severe abdominal pain,” writes a viewer named Joanne Rowlett from Macomb, Michigan. “The emergency room doctor diagnosed him as having a ‘large duodenal diverticulum’ near the small bowel. Upon discharge, they instructed him to see a surgeon or a gastroenterologist.
+
“Several weeks later he saw his gastroenterologist. Being concerned over the hospitals findings, his doctor scheduled a colonoscopy on December 2, 2019.
+
“On November 30, 2019, we met with Father Joseph Esper for blessings for my husband and myself. As we were walking out of the church there stood this women in a tiny vestibule with ‘Our Lady Tear of Joy’ prayer card in her hand.
+
“She handed us the prayer card and said ‘I think you need this.’ I began to cry because she had no idea what we were both going through emotionally and healthwise. Her gesture touched our hearts.
+
“On the drive home I kept on feeling that God sent this angel to us to share the word about Our Lady Tear of Joy. Having no knowledge about Our Lady Tear of Joy, I went on the website to read the beautiful story behind the photograph. For the next two nights we both said the Memorare prayer and placed the holy card with Our Lady’s picture on my husband abdomen.
+
“On December 2, 2019, my husband had his colonoscopy. The doctor came out and told us that he didn’t find anything. He said whatever they imaged at the hospital was no longer there. Praise God and Our Lady! Between the prayers of Father Esper and Our Lady Tear of Joy’s intervention a miracle had occurred!”

Arrow Osborne, who sent the photo, told us that Mary somehow materialized on a photo taken with an “instamatic” camera. It occurred near Cincinnati as someone she met was taking pictures of balloons released at the home of a woman in the area to celebrate Mary’s official birthday last year, in connection with a visit from another mystic, Carmelo Cortez, of the Philippines.
+
“When all of this was happening, the sun was spinning and some people were saying, ‘Look at the sun!’” explains Arrow [see her full account]. “I went into the house and went up stairs, walked in the bedroom where [my friend] Neil was. Neil just took a picture using a Instamatic camera as the balloons were still going up, then turned to me and said, ‘This is yours.’ I watched the image appear of ‘Our Lady of the Tear of Joy’ in the photo. There were no images of Our Blessed Mother on any of the balloons, nor in the trees, nor anywhere! Our Lady has said we are to say the Memorare when we look upon this image of her. Our Blessed Mother has said that when we say the Memorare prayer, we are fleeing to her and all those who flee to Our Lady will be led to her Son.”++
Now Arrow Osbourne tells us: “The following message was allegedly given by Our Lady to an anonymous locutionist on January 2nd, 2020 on the miracle image of ‘Our Lady of the Tear of Joy.’ This message has been approved to be posted by the spiritual director of Our Lady of the Tear of Joy.
++
“[Alleged] message: ‘My precious little ones, as you start a new year, flee to me more in prayer and I will lead you closer to my Son. Have no fear my little ones, for my mantle of love and protection is always wrapped around you. I shed tears of joy when you flee to me and these tears of joy which are filled with graces from me will gently come upon you. I love you My precious little ones and bless you in My Son’s Name.’ A tear of joy rolled down her face on the picture.”
++
However one wishes to discern, let’s take this from it: when we flee to the Blessed Mother with our whole hearts — not just a quick-said prayer, but a felt one — she always responds.
+
Whatever the devotion or image, go to her daily; start your day with Jesus and His mother. Worship God.
+
Worship, worship, worship: when you do that, evil residue and attachments and oppressions fall away.
