the following one day in his church there in his parish where he was
a woman approached him a simple woman and said to him father I want to ask you a great
favor in a few days the next week, specifically, a young man will come
and ask you to marry him, arrange his wedding, I want
this wedding to take place and all the expenses of this wedding to be covered by me, but you won't
tell him, I want you to have the best wedding what have you ever done to yourself when
the marriage is over I want you to give it to him and a gift you will get this image he takes out of a
bag an image of the Virgin Mary very old of great value beautiful when
the priest himself who says it saw it he stayed like that with his eyes open this picture
I want my father to give as a wedding present to the young man, you will not tell him that
it is from me, I want to do everything myself and not even to reveal it and the
woman left indeed after some days the young man went this I appeared a
young man and He says to him, I wanted my father to do my wedding, etc. He understood, the
father arranged it, he didn't say anything to him and the wedding day came, the
wedding day wasn't too far away and I started to do it, this is the mystery of the wedding
and as he says later the father himself, nor did I do such a wedding again in
my priestly course, nor in our church did such a wedding take place, so
beautiful, so majestic, very beautiful, everything went very well and
after it was over, and then the young man had to sign the papers and
all that and he met with the father, he prepared for the father to give him the
icon, but at that time he was very much in a dilemma and
his conscience could not rise up to say to him, take an icon like this, but no,
this icon was not so valuable which was a gift from the father and he revealed
the truth to the lad but when he took out the image and told him this
image is a gift from the beautiful woman when the lad takes the image from
the father and sees it he sees this thing and hears her name of a woman
changes, his whole form is filled with tears, he falls to his knees,
he grabs his knees, his father's feet, and begins to cry so
sweetly, so much that he says no, no father, I didn't know what to do in front of this
sight, no, he says no, how is this possible no this is not possible said the boy
I can't believe it oh my god how did this happen boy tell me
what happened what's going on come tell me he took him aside and they sat down and
the boy says to him my father you won't believe this I will tell you what happened, my child
, why are all these things happening, my father tells the young man in an
unsolicited manner, did you know that this woman did a great harm to her when
I was 25 years old, I killed her son, I am the murderer
of her son and she woman, she never came back to show me, to surrender me
, nor to harm me, what can I say, says the father, his mouth open, his
eyes wide open in front of what he heard and what he experienced, that is, what
he lived, and the boy says no can I believe that this woman would be
so good to me while I killed her, her child was divorced, the boy left,
the church was empty, and the father was left alone in the church,
trying to digest and process in his heart and mind all
this which he had experienced and after about a year he succeeded her in the
church and caught her approached her caught up with her and says come here please
I learned the truth I learned that this boy the fuck you paid for this
old boy this old this the boy killed your boy
your son please tell me how you could and did this how you could
and overcome this this great distress this pain how could you
do it please tell me that thing so much says what was the
woman crying that I can't say, there are not enough words to say about this
woman's crying and she turns around with her friendly kisses and she cries
and says to him father she tells him she told him it was fine when I I was killing the children
my children in my womb how can I how could I take revenge on
this child who killed my child when I previously had
killed so many in my belly how could god tolerate me and I thought I would
do him good as if I would do good to my son and also good to my soul
because to me god would accept what he did how could I do
bad to this child that's why I decided to do him good by
marrying him as if he were my own child and from now on everything I can do is
out of my hand without him knowing to do him good to benefit
my son who he is gone and my soul, this father was the reason for me to know Christ,
because if it wasn't for this, I would never have known Christ, that's why
I owe him everything and I decided to do this thing, the father, as
he himself tells so much he was so shocked he was
impressed by this whole story after now he slept this woman left for the
heavenly scenes that's why she said on TV I can and I reveal because it was
a matter of confession I can and I reveal this story otherwise I expected I
couldn't reveal before her death something and indeed when they were meeting
me before death they met again I asked her she says once well she tells her among
so many priests how did you come and choose me and she said the following
shocking because you look like
my child you understood it is a true story very beneficial I can't get enough of
thinking about her and with much longing I dedicate her
to you and to you a woman of our time now she is not old this woman
did what she says when we say repentance don't think when we say sorry
we mean it we always say it but inside we can to hold anger for the other
person is not only anger what can we say now a mother yes she has so
much love a mother for her children such a test there is no how
could this one mother kill her child and manage to forgive
that it is repentance, this is repentance, what did she do, she was troubled,
she wanted to put her good will into action, and God came and cooperated with
her, because God gives us the strength to do repentance and everything so that
this breaking that the cruelty that exists in
our heart, in order to break this rock, we do not succeed alone, but for
God to come and break it, to put his little hand into the holy and mix
and break these rocks, these rocks within us we have to
open the door to cooperate with God otherwise she can't come she
cooperated she watched the fight there would definitely be a conflict calculations
war incredible war we our husband doesn't talk to us sometimes
our child looks at us suddenly he doesn't listen to us and how let's think about you, that is,
I don't have children in the flesh, but I also have some f, I have single daughters, and a,
I worry about him, I think about him at night and I think again and I have a dialogue, this I will
say that I will do the first thing, the anger may come because the other person has ego,
but she had this too, she definitely had this war, but
god saw that her degree counted more, the good heart didn't
have the strength, maybe completely, god came inside, he gave her a scuttle and she did
this thing and this is the an act of repentance she was troubled
she searched she wanted she cried out to god she pulled her hair she succeeded
but it was also her cooperation you understand how it goes I kiss you
once for confession and you go and tell the truth
you start telling it oh and come and your god broyer and you can and
this is completed what is humanly possible to forgive I called you
a bad talk we can't get up no I called my virus
the pain is incredible and that's how he managed that's all that's all the
lesson you understand me you know and it is very important that the memory
is a woman of our time she was not the woman with the long
dresses in the past when the world was different so more faithful
more women were more obedient more humble all these things you know
now she is a woman of the time and a woman who had committed too
many sins had given rights to the outsider with so many abortions she
had done but she sat down and philosophized you understand what it means she thought about it
she understood that this was sent to her by god how she understood it she willed it and understood it
she understood me she was helped by her guardian angel who is now here
watching us he sees her thoughts her thoughts he understands god knows he
is a cardiograph
he speaks to the angel he gives orders to the angel the angel comes with
his wings like a fairy tale I tell you but that's how it is, but it comes and
covers us when the angel covers us, it's true, the bad
power goes away, the outside of here goes away, and when the angel covers us, then
we start and get strength for good thoughts, good feelings,
good deeds, and that's how we move forward we were so shocked here at
the monastery that we decided to dedicate it to you and try to win
something yes we can and we can if this
simple woman could do it a simple woman was if she could achieve something like this
why can't we and we what are we only for the bad only for the
for them to open our tongue only we can and we can for
the good the good has so much power it is so beautiful our soul will rest we will
live we will have joy within us let's take the step for
repentance hand in hand let's give why not give joy to Christ let's give joy to
Christ it hasn't happened to you I think more or less when you do
good many people are like that when they do so much good that
they get enough of it And I'm happy with this thing when I see that the other person
was happy with what I did to him, told him, gave him, etc. I'm
even more happy and many of you have it, don't tell you and you all understood, so
why don't we do it forward all together cheers cheers God so
God let us achieve something too
