Analysis of The ballad of medugorje.



~~~
As Our Lady’s “Yes” to the Archangel
Gabriel brought us eternal salvation the flow
Of Grace within Medugorje confirms the
Authenticity of her apparitions not far
From the church of St.James.
~
Lourdes, Fatima, Knock, and many others
But it would appear that the Mother of Our
Saviour’s visits to Medugorje is of a higher
Importance arising from the accounts
Of the apparitions.
~
The visionaries are extremely blessed for
Their experiences of Mary are far beyond any
Comprehension which underlies the fact
That they are vehicles of salvation for
Each and every nation.
~
So let us respond to our Mother’s requests for
In accord with her wishes a final blow to the
Evil that humanity has endured since shortly
After the beginning of Creation is on its
Way from Our Father who is Love.
