Revisiting the Fatima Message

With the recent mainstream release of the movie, "Fatima", this past August 28th, there seems to be a providential reemphasis on the 1917 Marian apparitions in Fatima, Portugal.  I must admit that I didn't wholeheartedly enjoy the movie because of how the Blessed Virgin's apparitions were inaccurately portrayed, but I was happy that the movie could at least serve to potentially lead those new to Fatima to want to know more; to want to learn the message in detail, which continues to be important and relevant even in our own times.  Click here for more info on the Fatima movie.

With the above being stated, I'm sharing another usual experience I recently had that I believe has a direct connection to the Fatima Message.  In short, on the morning of Wednesday, 9/16/2020, during a time of intermittent personal prayer and spiritual reflection, I was surprised by another visual manifestation of our Holy Mother in the sky above my home - I immediately recognized her as Our Lady of Fatima!

After observing the image for several moments, I fumbled through unlocking my cellphone and managed to snap a photo before Our Lady faded from view - see below.

I then prayed for discernment concerning this occurrence and was later enlightened that Our Lady was silently drawing attention to the message she delivered at Fatima - that we live her words.  In essence, if we aren't already doing so, she is encouraging all of us to start ⁰ these now...

• personally convert our lives over to God's will

• pray the Rosary daily for others to convert

• pray against against Communism and Socialism, which our Lady once referred to as the "errors" of Russia that has now infected the entire world

• have a devotion to Mary's Immaculate Heart, which is our shelter and comfort during turbulent times, such as now

For Our Lady to manifest herself in such an extraordinary manner, to someone as unworthy as me, just goes to show that there's a sense of urgency to it all.  This is why I decided to act and post about this experience; about the Message of Fatima... and if I failed to say something about it, I'd be disobedient and irresponsible, especially since the Virgin of Fatima also prophesied dire consequences for the world if we failed to act on her words.

So I share and let the readers discern, but my hope is that more people will respond positively to the message of Fatima.  Research the message online, if needed... or watch the new Fatima movie (or see "The 13th Day" movie instead) - one may just realize how important and critical Fatima is for the times we live in now.

Our Lady of Fatima,

pray for us!
