An article published by One Minute with Mary spoke about a certain mystic Maria Valtorta. I wanted to know more and I decided to read the 10 volumes from Christmas to Easter.
Finally, it's as if I wanted to know a Friend better...
I have decided to return to attending mass after 2 confessions where I cried a lot.
Let him not be afraid to want to know the Love of Jesus because everything is truth. That this reading is a true Film of the Life of Christ. That it's easy to read Moving.

During this period of Covid when I had more time to myself, I discovered the site JESUS TODAY... there, I heard about MARIA VALTORTA for the first time... From then on, it was an unparalleled joy to discover more about the Life and Work of JESUS... about MARY and her unparalleled tenderness for her son, but also her youth and this wonderful husband that was St JOSEPH... such endearing facts... I had the 10 volumes, plus the Notebooks given to me for my celebrations and birthdays, my husband was also delighted and read them all as well.
One truly feels that the Gospel we have always known is clearer, more precise, we discover the life and surroundings of JESUS by becoming even more attached to each of the characters. I cannot let a day go by without delving into the so captivating version of JESUS which tells us so much more and which is so sad to see the complications brought about for the general dissemination of his thought... MARIE cried about it...
I have always been a believer and practitioner, but I so wish that many more people were convinced of the importance of these EXTRAORDINARY messages of precision and infinite Love from GOD for each of his children. I pray even more and go to mass during the week. I have understood that the souls in Purgatory need prayers and masses. I read more testimonials and lives of Saints. I thank the Internet for allowing me these readings that uplift me morally.
I would tell people who are hesitant to start with number 1 and then, they will not be able to detach themselves from this fascinating work.

A friend gave me volume 1, I then bought the other 9 which I reread in a loop.
It's a constant wonder. These writings illuminate the Gospel and help me broaden my understanding and deepen my Faith.
I have "grown up", I live my Faith more by conscious choice and I try to put into practice the enlightenment received.
What a grace it is that Jesus grants us to reveal Himself to us in person, to teach us Himself.

Thanks to the daily publication of JESUS TODAY by the Association Mary of Nazareth.
This allowed me to better understand the Gospel and thus realize the immensity of Jesus' love.
A deeper prayer, a greater attendance at mass.
This work will help him deepen his faith and his knowledge of the Word of God.

My mother had been subscribed to the Stella Maris magazine since its inception, which I read with interest. That's where I learned about this work. I started with volume 9 which overwhelmed me. I then bought all the others. My mother did too. We talked about it together, sharing our wonder.
The too fragmented passages of the Gospel, poorly contextualized or misinterpreted, find a remarkable clarification with Maria Valtorta. The homilies, as beautiful as they may be, cannot compare to the teachings of Jesus. The explanations on certain points that did not seem clear to me have met all my expectations.
Jesus is both very close there, revealing himself as a living and real person and shining with the glory of the Son of God. The apostles, with their own character, their misunderstandings or their mistakes, encourage us to get up and continue to move forward. Finally, the life of Mary, her countless sufferings, her role as Co-Redemptrix have made me discover her more intimately and increased my love for her. Stronger prayer life, strengthened faith, more conscious participation in the sacraments.
Splendid work. Spiritual adventure, discovery of so many things. Everyone will find what they are looking for. It is difficult to talk about it properly. You must read this work!!
Charles
Through the book "Maria Valtorta who are you?" by Jean Aulagnier, Resiac editions, then through the Internet.
Jesus deeply dazzled and touched me. Such light shines in each of his words, each of his actions. My love for him has been rekindled. I am now convinced (despite what I unfortunately heard in my life) that the Gospel is reliable and true in all respects.
- Deeper, more intimate faith - Desire to more frequently partake in the sacraments (Eucharist, confession); and with more love and heart. - Better understanding of these. - More fervent prayer - Respect and love for the Church, Tradition, and the Word of God - Better knowledge and understanding of the historical context, the meaning of certain passages in the bible, the catechism of the Church - Desire for holiness - Desire for Heaven
Read and you will see.

I discovered the work of Maria Valtorta through a friend from my mothers' prayer group and through Jesus Today, which I receive every day.
It is primarily the teachings of Jesus that help me deepen my faith.
Return to the sacrament of reconciliation every month, rosary every day and above all, help to become better.
Simply read the work of Maria Valtorta. The volumes being very numerous, register on Jesus Today and read the teachings of Jesus.
Daniel
I discovered the work of Maria Valtorta thanks to the Marie de Nazareth association.
This reading allowed me to better understand the sometimes abstract Gospel, thanks to the many details reported by Maria Valtorta, one can wonder how she could have described them with such clarity without actually having really seen them.
Return to a deeper life of faith where teachings take on even more of their full meaning.
Do not hesitate because everything is so beautiful and well described, despite sometimes difficult passages, which question our way of living, daily, our faith...

On the occasion of a pilgrimage to Medjugorje, the group often spoke of this mystic and my curiosity piqued, led me to the works of Maria Valtorta.
The impact was visible in the form of an emotion that made me cry every 2 pages (there are 6000 in the 10 volumes). I was overwhelmed (in the literal sense of the word) by the Love that emanated from these writings.
I started attending Church again without taking communion, and I would always cry during the latter. Without explanation, a great uncontrollable emotion. Then, after confession, I took communion again, still with these uncontrollable tears.
It is a Gift from Heaven on Earth. Everything exudes Holiness and these Writings are contagious with the Divine Love that is imbued in them. In a word: SUPERNATURAL.

By subscribing to Jesus today.
Jesus became a real, living character, who made me feel emotions of faith and love.
I have regained a taste for prayer. I have put Jesus before me, guiding me in all my actions.
It's rediscovering Jesus and Mary with added emotions. They become alive, so close, so real. My faith has been rekindled. I have regained the taste for reading the gospels.
