Our Lady of Fatima

Feast day: May 13

May 13th, 1917, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to 3 Portuguese children in the small town of Fatima. She appeared six times and identified Herself as “Our Lady of the Rosary”, asking that they pray the rosary daily for the conversion of sinners. Mary also spoke of observing first Saturdays, devotion to her Immaculate Heart and the conversion of Russia. During the final apparition, the dance of the sun took place in front of 70,000 people.

“For He shall give His angels charge over you,

To keep you in all your ways.”

—Psalms 91:11

“I will take you as My people, and I will be your God” (Exodus 6:7).

God desires that we know Him. He revealed and manifested Himself to His people through great deliverances, signs and wonders — and yet they did not know their God.

“For forty years I was grieved with that generation, and said, ‘It is a people who go astray in their hearts, and they do not know My ways’” (Psalm 95:10)

God is still looking for a people who will let Him be God to them. We are like Israel in that we have witnessed miracles, experienced manifestation of His presence and had our prayers answered. When troubles come we still doubt Him and we don't fully trust Him.

Rest in the knowledge that Jesus loves you dearly.

When the enemy comes in like a roaring lion, don't panic. When the floods overwhelm you, don't despair - just rest. Say, "God loves me — Jesus loves me. I know and believe in His love.” Let us be a people who know their God and know His ways.

Walk through the doors God opens, His plan for you is unstoppable.

Trust God’s timing
