That awake vision that I had with Mary the Holy Mother of God. Well she also talked to me too become a nun should I answer her prayer or calling for me am I a mystic and I dont know it? She said to me In a dream yesterday "Dear Daughter! Open your heart to God's mercy in this Lenten time. The Heavenly Father desires to deliver each of you from the slavery of sin. Therefore, little daughter, make good use of this time and through meeting with God in confession, leave sin and decide for holiness. Do this out of love for Jesus, who redeemed you all with His blood, that you may be happy and in peace. Do not forget, little daughter: your freedom is your weakness, therefore follow my messages with seriousness. Thank you for having responded to my call." She told me in a dream vision and showed me what the world was doing how it was sinninghorribly. Like the pagans! She said If you can help spread the true meaning of love to the people I will reward you in heaven she smiled and she told me If you help get my people back to my God they will be called righteous if they ignore the word of my son Jesus I will be forced to let go of him and for him to send wrath!She said that she wants me to help covert non christians atheist and people that are pagans heathens to the lord my God and she wants me to teach them the truth about the gospel of Jesus christ she said that she has found love in my soul and she told me that her son Jesus has founded favor with me My dream started with a gold large cross then it was glowing like a holy light I tested the dream to make sure satan didnt dwell with in the dream and he did it was really her She came to me as Our LADY in a beautiful white robe or gown to say and she had a pink belt around her waist then her skin was of the Jewish and she had long beautiful hair dark brown. And she had blue eyes. she wore a veil called the Matillas a chaple veil long and flowy. she had a cresent moon under her feet the coat that was over her blue like the sky she had twelve stars around her head and a golden crown she showed me her Immaculate heart again and she said that you are saved by my son. I ask her what if they dont believe me that I saw you and they laugh like they did to the prophets and your son? She said you are chosen to become a saint by God he will work wonders in your life go to the religious life and there you will find me. Should I go to become a Dominican Nun? I found the place that I want to stay at its in summit Nj its a convent and its the contemplative life style that SR.Marilyn Marie said for me to do and its easier and a whole lot better for me. I will be more happier they're then the non contemplative life. Do I follow Virgin Marys call or not? Is it better if I do and worst if I dont?
Answer Hi Jacqueline,
I really can't answer that for you. You need to decide this vey carefully. You can't name your children Biblical names and be a nun. One of the revelations must be wrong or misunderstood.
In becoming a nun "easier" should never enter into it. I personally think you should visit and check out several orders. I am kind of fond of the Benedictine and Carmelite orders myself. St. Teresa of Avila was such a saint of God.
But this choice is going to be yours. I believe that if you are called to be a nun, you will know which order you should go into once you visit.
May God lead and direct you in your pursuit of Him.
