According to Michael Brown's interview with Maria Esperanza in December 2003 in his book Bridge to Heaven, Maria speculated that Jesus would start appearing to people in the next 10-20 years. Although, i regularly feel Jesus presence next to me, He has not appeared to me as of yet. At least not while I was fully awake during the day. No one I know either has Jesus appeared to. Seems like her speculated time frame for His manifestation might be a bit off in timing. "10 to 20 years" 20 years was up in Dec. 2023. It has been about 22.5 years.
Todays gospel struck me And whoever loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and reveal myself to him.
The thing about apparitions is that, with prayer, even wars can be averted! So maybe heaven's timeline changed since. I know that it might be enough to make some sceptical but for those of us who don't hold so much to dates, we trust in Jesus' timing
He came to me in a dream last fall. And multitudes of people are having dreams of him.

Thank you for the warm welcomes. Ive been a spectator of Mother of God forum for years - just reading the posts. I decided to join officially.
Welcome, Marc! It could be that many have had Jesus appear to them but keep it to themselves out of humility?
I love the way Maria Esperanza was such a Modern Family saint. It was startling to see her with her husband and her many, many children and grandchildren. Not only saintly but a great mystic who actually met our Blessed Lady at a great apparition site , Betania. So a kind of modern day Bernadette/. On top of all this a mystic and a busy lady with her own Apostolate. She kind of broke the mould. A stigmatic too! Remarkable.
Yes, I've heard that Muslim's are being converted to Christianity like never before. And with them possibly being put to death for conversion to another faith, they would face possible martyrdom to do this!
