"What I started in Fatima, I will complete in Medjugorje. my heart will Triumph."
When Our Lady said these words, all I knew about Fatima was that it was vaguely similar to Medjugorje - the Blessed Mother had appeared to three children there. But, after this message, I became curious about it, and the more I learned, the more I began to see deeper connections between Fatima and Medjugorje.
Just like in Fatima, the first words Our Lady said to us in Medjugorje were "Be not Afraid. " We were certainly frightened on June 25, 1981, when we stood in front of Our Lady for the first time.
One day, during an apparition, I asked Our Lady, "How can God be so unmerciful as to condemn people to hell for eternity? "
"Souls who go to hell have ceased thinking favourably of God. " Our Lady told me. In life, they cursed Him, and in death they will continue to do the same in essence, they have already become part of hell. God does not send people to hell. They choose to be there.. " She explained.
