I am the Mother of Holy Hope and anyone who enters my heart finds themselves filled with hope. They can give no reason for this hope because all the signs point to despair and ruin. Yet, this great feeling, that no matter what happens I will guide them through, permeates their being. They cannot account for this gift, nor even know how to bring it about but they are clothed in a hope that overcomes all despair.

Right now, people place their hopes in all that they have stored up. They watch their financial investments very closely and keep an eye on their assets. They calculate their income and weigh it against their debts. This is the normal course of human hope. But when the financial markets collapse, when fortunes are wiped away, when currency is devalued, when the foundations of the American economy are shaken and topple, where will be their hope?

Because of these problems, I speak now and say prepare! Yes, steps must be taken, but what steps. Without divine hope, you take the wrong steps. Let me teach you what to do.

First, stop putting your trust in material wealth. Jesus says that it is easily stolen away. Go to a church dedicated to me. I will be waiting for you. Present to me all of your financial responsibilities and I will give you very simple wisdom. Slowly, your attitude toward material wealth will change. You will place more emphasis on love for others and strong personal relationships. You will see where you have neglected these important foundations of security.

You will see that you and your loved ones need a much deeper practice of your faith. I will rekindle the religious spirit that alone can truly bind a family. You will dedicate less time to storing up material wealth and more time in seeking first the kingdom of God. Only then, will you be walking my path of true hope.
