The Great Awakening
Soon we will be celebrating, "Our Lady of Fatima". During those visits, a sweet Guardian Angel appeared to the precious Shepherd children, Jacinta, Lucia and Francesco. Appearing with a beautiful prayer that we recall after each decade of the Rosary. " Oh my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell and lead All Souls into Heaven, especially those who have most need of Thy mercy". In reciting this little powerful extra, we are including all of humanity. Those that have died. Those who have strayed. Those who need extra Mercy.
Everything about God is wonderful! He and our beloved Mother Mary, leaves no one out. Conversions are happening every day. Maybe it's with the help of our saying this extra little prayer.
The Rosary, in itself is quite powerful. But including the Angels prayer after each decade, is like the cherry on top, as we faithfully think and plead for all who do not yet know our God. For all of those that are in need of a little more of a push towards Heaven's Gates.
No one can be lost if we pray for them. Our humanity, yes, has been given free will. But the power of prayer can help change that will into benefits for that soul. Many calling it unexplainable, but us knowing that God listens to those who pray with Faith. Being part of someone's conversion, is what I truly think we were all meant to do, including ourselves. That is loving our neighbor. That is love.
That Holy prayer may help the mother who is thinking of having an abortion. The person standing on the corner with a "help me" sign. The teenager who is struggling to understand life. The soul who has died and is relying on our prayers to help them attain Heavenly Glory.
Pray the Rosary daily and when ending the decade, recite the Holy prayer given at Fatima by the Angel. Pray it, and mean it, with all of your heart. In return, that Mercy will be yours someday.
