TO A CORRUPT WORLD

THIS IS A MUST READ FOR ALL

🙏🏻❤️Dearly Beloved in Christ, do you know that at just 10 years old, St. Jacinta Marto, one of the visionaries of Fatima, spoke with piercing clarity about the coming chastisements upon a sinful world.

As she lay dying in a Lisbon hospital, separated from her family and ravaged by illness, she gave voice to supernatural truths that continue to ring out as a dire warning for our time. These were not the words of childish imagination—but the cries of a soul filled with divine light, tempered by penance, suffering, and deep union with the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Her statements contain spiritual diagnoses and prophetic prescriptions for a world unraveling in immorality, disobedience, and indifference to God.

What follows is an expanded Catholic reflection on her last recorded words—each section a prophetic signpost calling the Church and the world back to repentance and holiness.

I. “The Sins of the Flesh Are Sending Souls to Hell”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“For this is the will of God, your sanctification:
that you abstain from sexual immorality”
(1 Thessalonians 4:3).

“The sins which cause most souls to go to Hell
are the sins of the flesh.”

Beloved, Jacinta identified a root cause of damnation in sins against chastity—a theme echoed by Our Lady of Fatima and affirmed in the Church's moral teaching.
In a culture obsessed with sexual gratification, her statement is a rebuke to the normalization of impurity.

Chastity is not repression—it is freedom rightly ordered toward love. A person living in lust becomes a slave of the body, but one who lives in purity becomes a temple of God (1 Cor 6:19-20).

Christian Soul, this call is urgent in an age of po*******hy, immodesty, and confusion about gender and sexuality.
May we harken to the voice of God now before it's forever too late. Be warned.

II. “Be Pure in Body and Soul”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they shall see God”
(Matthew 5:8).

“To be pure of body is to keep chastity. To be pure in soul is not to commit sins, not look at what one should not see, not to steal, never to lie, always to tell the truth however hard it may be.”

Beloved, Jacinta provides a comprehensive definition of purity, blending moral and intellectual integrity. She warns against the formation of a compromised conscience. Purity of soul demands truthfulness and rejection of all sin—not just external, but internal.

Christian Soul, to live in purity today requires radical discipline in entertainment, speech, internet use, and relationships. It demands a daily examination of conscience and recourse to the Sacrament of Reconciliation.

III. “Fashion Will Become a Weapon Against Souls”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“Do not be conformed to this world,
but be transformed by the renewal
of your mind” (Romans 12:2).

“Fashions that will greatly offend Our Lord will appear. People who serve God should not follow fashions. The Church has no fashions. Our Lord is always the same.”

Beloved, this is not simply about clothing—it is about the tyranny of trends that distort modesty, femininity, and dignity. Fashion becomes a cultural force to manipulate the body for lust, rebellion, or self-worship.
Catholics are called to reflect eternal truths in their exterior lives.

Christian Soul, Modesty is not prudishness—it is an act of mercy toward ourselves and others. Parents, schools, and parish communities must rediscover and defend it. Let's return back to Modesty.

IV. “Doctors Cannot Heal Without the Light of God”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“The prayer of faith will save the sick person,
and the Lord will raise him up” (James 5:15).

“Doctors do not have the light to cure the sick because they do not have love of God.”

Beloved, Jacinta is not condemning medicine, but warning that science without faith becomes a cold mechanic. Healing that does not account for the soul ultimately fails the human person. Catholic healthcare must remain rooted in dignity, conscience, and the sanctity of life.

Christian Soul, Where God is excluded—whether in abortion, euthanasia, or sterilization—the profession becomes perverted.

V. “Priests Must Be Pure, Very Pure”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“Be holy, for I the Lord your God am holy”
(Leviticus 19:2).
“It is required of stewards
that they be found faithful”
(1 Corinthians 4:2).

“Priests should only occupy themselves with the affairs of the Church. Priests should be pure, very pure.”

Beloved, the crisis of the priesthood is ultimately a crisis of purity and obedience. A priest is not a manager, politician, or celebrity. He is an alter Christus, called to serve with a heart wholly possessed by God.

The faithful must pray and sacrifice for priests, and seminaries must form men of integrity, humility, and deep prayer.

Christian Soul, do you know that the disobedience Jacinta warned about still damages the Church today.
Pray pray pray for our Priests. Pray for their Holiness.

VI. “Religious Life Demands Radiant Purity”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“They follow the Lamb wherever He goes…
they are virgins, and in their mouth was found
no lie” (Revelation 14:4–5).

“To be a woman religious, it is necessary to be very pure in soul and body.”

Beloved, the beauty of consecrated life is found in radical detachment and purity. A religious sister becomes a sign of the heavenly life, a living testimony that God alone satisfies.

Christian Soul, Communities of women religious must guard their charisms and return to prayer, silence, Eucharistic adoration, and joyful witness—not activism or secularism. It's unfortunate when you see what is happening in so many religious communities. Let's return back to the original. Let's continue to pray for the religious for holiness of life.

VII. “Many Marriages Displease God”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“What God has joined together,
let no one separate” (Mark 10:9).

“Many marriages are not good; they do not please Our Lord, and they are not of God.”

Beloved, In an age of divorce, cohabitation, and same-sex unions, Jacinta’s words strike like lightning. Marriage is a sacred covenant, not a contract of convenience. Married Catholics must pursue holiness together, open to life, rooted in the sacraments, and centered on prayer and forgiveness.

Christian Soul, Preparation for marriage must be thorough and spiritually rich. Let's continue to pray for many broken homes. Satan is working tirelessly to break so many homes. Family life is one of his greatest targets. Pray pray pray for married Couples.

VIII. “Confession Is a Fountain of Mercy”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“If we confess our sins,
He is faithful and just to forgive us”
(1 John 1:9).
“Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them”
(John 20:23).

“Confession is a sacrament of mercy. Therefore, one must approach the confessional with confidence and joy.”

Beloved, St. Jacinta exalts that sacrament which modern Catholics often neglect. Confession is not a shameful obligation—it is the encounter with Divine Mercy. Make frequent confession—at least twice in a month or monthly. Teach children that the confessional is a place of healing.

Christian Soul, I urge all our Priests to be gentle confessors and never turn penitents away. Let us all rush towards this fountain of grace and be made whole and pure again.

IX. “Pray for Those Who Govern”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord”
(Psalm 33:12).
“Render to Caesar…
and to God the things that are God’s”
(Mark 12:17).

“Pray much for those who govern! Woe to those who persecute the religion of Our Lord.”

Beloved, St. Jacinta links good governance to divine favor—and persecution to divine chastisement. Politics divorced from truth brings tyranny. Catholics must be engaged in public life—not as partisans, but as witnesses to truth, justice, and religious freedom.

Christian Soul, Apathy in the face of anti-Christian laws is complicity. Let's continue to pray for the government of the world.

X. “Wars Are Chastisements for Sin”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“Because you have rejected the word of the Lord,
He has rejected you as king” (1 Samuel 15:23).

“Wars are nothing but punishments for the sins of the world.”

Beloved, Wars are not merely political tragedies—they are often the consequence of collective moral collapse. Just as Israel’s unfaithfulness brought destruction, the modern world invites its own ruin.
Catholics must offer acts of reparation—rosaries, fasting, Eucharistic adoration—for the sins of nations.

Christian Soul, A world that mocks God invites His justice. O dearest Jesus, spare Thy People.

XI. “Our Lady Can No Longer Hold Back
The Arm of Her Son”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“Unless you repent, you will all perish”
(Luke 13:5).
“Now is the acceptable time;
now is the day of salvation”
(2 Corinthians 6:2).

“It is necessary to do penance. If people change their ways, Our Lord will still spare the world; but if they do not, the chastisement will come.”

Beloved, This is the climax of Jacinta’s warnings. God is merciful but also just. The world stands on a precipice. Conversion is not optional—it is the only path to peace. It's a must obligation otherwise your soul will be lost forever in hell. REPENT now before it's forever too late.

Let's return to daily prayer, penance, and the Sacraments. Offer your life as reparation for those who do not love God.

Christian Soul, this is how the Church stands in the gap for the world.

Beloved in Christ, I urge you I beg you to listen to the Voice of a Prophet in a Child.....St. Jacinta mart. Her last words are not relics of the past. They are a mirror for our generation—a generation seduced by comfort, blind to sin, and forgetful of eternity. But her voice, like that of the prophets, cuts through the fog with burning truth.

Shall we listen?
Or shall we wait for the chastisement she foresaw?

Let us choose now. Let us respond with repentance, faith, and courage. The time is too short. Heaven is watching. The Immaculate Heart is pleading and bleeding with tears of blood. The Sacred Heart is seriously wounded by our iniquities. It's also bleeding blood profusely begging us to return back to our Father. He is waiting for our return but cannot wait forever. The time of His mercy is now.

O God, You made us for Yourself and our souls are restless until they rest in Thee. Give us Your light 🕯️ o God.

😍BEAUTIFUL REFLECTION ON THE😍
STATE OF SANCTIFYING GRACE
✝️✝️✝️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️✝️✝️✝️
Please Read This Piece
If You Are Geniunely
Aiming For Holiness

🙏🏻❤️Beloved in Christ, do you know that the state of grace is simply the state of being free from grave sins' a state of unbroken communion with Heaven!
How beautiful it is to be in the state of the light of Heaven, free from guilt and judgement of the conscience. This soul can receive worthily the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ.

A soul in the state of grace is a happy soul; the Psalmist David said "Blessed/Happy is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man unto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquity and in whose spirit there is no guile" Psalm 32:1-2.

A soul who struggles against sin is an apple of God's eyes, because this soul is not resting in a dangerous zone, rather she is fighting against her foes. And the Lord doesn't joke with such souls!

But how miserable and ugly, the soul in the state of mortal sin. She has no rest because there is no sufficient sanctifying grace within: after David sinned gravely by taking in Bathsheba and murdering her spouse Uriah, he lost his state of grace and was restless without consolation of the Holy Spirit, but he later repented and composed the most heart piercing Psalm, psm 51.. crying out loud in verses 11-12 "cast me not away from your presence Oh Lord, take not your Holy Spirit from me. Restore onto me the joy of Thy salvation and renew Thy Spirit within me!!!"
Saint Augustin confirmed this by saying "My soul has no rest until she rests in You Oh Lord!!!"

❤️The Psalmist also wrote "My heart breaks when I remember the past, when I went with the crowds to the house of God and led them as they walked along; a happy crowd singing praise to God" Psm 42:4. That is the woes into which a soul in the state of mortal sin is. The gravity of falling into mortal sin crushes the soul and crushes it more when the soul sees how dry she is, remembering her initial fervor, remembering how fervently she received the holy communion. Yet "as a deer longs for a streem of cool water" (psm 42:1) so the soul of the just shall long after the Lord even after falling into mortal sin!

When you can not receive holy communion because your conscience judges you, you are not in the state of grace and so needs the sacrement that purifies the soul from sin, the Sacrement of Reconciliation or Penance.

❤️An unhappy soul is a soul without reconciliation with God through the Sacrament of Reconciliation. For this, the Psalmist King David said "When I did not confess my sins, I was worn out from crying all day long; then I confessed my sins to You, Lord; and You forgave all my sins" Psm 32:3,5.

Dearly beloved, do not allow sin deprive you of your spiritual communion with the Lord. Allow the Lord live in your very soul from one communion to the other. The Sacrament of Penance is very necessary for the purification of ones soul from all sins; so when you find yourself in the state of sin especially mortal sin, rush to the confessional and confess to your priest with faith and confidence.

The joy of being in the state of grace is the joy of our salvation, that is the joy David pleaded for in Psalm 51:12 "Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation and renew your spirit within me".

❤️Dearly beloved, preserve your state of grace at all cost, avoid the occasion of sin and be the saint you are called to be. O dear God, You made us for Yourself and our Souls are restless, until they rest in Thee.

MAKE US HOLY LORD
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

🌹🌹SAINT +OF+ THE+ DAY 🌹🌹
SAINT ANTHONY OF PADUA
PRIEST AND DOCTOR
:::+++++++++++++++:::
15 August 1195 13 June 1231

🙏🏻🌹Beloved in Christ, Today the Holy Mother Church celebrates One of Her finest Saints of all Times, Saint Anthony. He was born Fernando Martins in Lisbon, Portugal. He was born into a wealthy family and by the age of fifteen asked to be sent to the Abbey of Santa Cruz in Coimbra, the then capital of Portugal. During his time in the Abbey, he learned theology and Latin.

🌹Following his ordination to the priesthood, he was named guestmaster and was responsible for the abbey's hospitality. When Franciscan friars settled a small hermitage outside Coimbra dedicated to Saint Anthony of Egypt, Fernando felt a longing to join them.

🌹Fernando eventually received permission to leave the Abbey so he could join the new Franciscan Order. When he was admitted, he changed his name to Anthony.

🌹Anthony then traveled to Morocco to spread God's truth, but became extremely sick and was returned to Portugal to recover. The return voyage was blown off-course and the party arrived in Sicily, from which they traveled to Tuscany. Anthony was assigned to the hermitage of San Paolo after local friars considered his health.

As he recovered, Anthony spent his time praying and studying.

🌹An undetermined amount of time later, Dominican friars came to visit the Franciscans and there was confusion over who would present the homily. The Dominicans were known for their preaching, thus the Franciscans assumed it was they who would provide a homilist, but the Dominicans assumed the Franciscans would provide one. It was then the head of the Franciscan hermitage asked Anthony to speak on whatever the Holy Spirit told him to speak of.

🌹Though he tried to object, Anthony delivered an eloquent and moving homily that impressed both groups. Soon, news of his eloquence reached Francis of Assisi, who held a strong distrust of the brotherhood's commitment to a life of poverty. However, in Anthony, he found a friend.

🌹In 1224, Francis entrusted his friars' pursuits of studies to Anthony. Anthony had a book of psalms that contained notes and comments to help when teaching students and, in a time when a printing press was not yet invented, he greatly valued it.

🌹When a novice decided to leave the hermitage, he stole Anthony's valuable book. When Anthony discovered it was missing, he prayed it would be found or returned to him. The thief did return the book and in an extra step returned to the Order as well.

The book is said to be preserved in the Franciscan friary in Bologna today.

Anthony occasionally taught at the universities of Montpellier and Toulouse in southern France, but he performed best in the role of a preacher.

🌹So simple and resounding was his teaching of the Catholic Faith, most unlettered and the innocent could understand his messages. It is for this reason he was declared a Doctor of the Church by Pope Pius XII in 1946.

🌹Once, when St. Anthony of Padua attempted to preach the true Gospel of the Catholic Church to heretics who would not listen to him, he went out and preached his message to the fish. This was not, as liberals and naturalists have tried to say, for the instruction of the fish, but rather for the glory of God, the delight of the angels, and the easing of his own heart. When critics saw the fish begin to gather, they realized they should also listen to what Anthony had to say.

🌹He was only 36-years-old when he died and was canonized less than one year afterward by Pope Gregory IX. Upon exhumation some 336 years after his death, his body was found to be corrupted, yet his tongue was totally incorrupt, so perfect were the teachings that had been formed upon it.

🌹He is typically depicted with a book and the Infant Child Jesus and is commonly referred to today as the "finder of lost articles."

PATRON:
🌹🌹🌹
illiterate and the poor, of sailors and fishermen, of priests and travelers,the finder of lost things, a protector and guardian of the mails, and wonder-worker.

EFFICACIOUS PRAYER
TO ST. ANTHONY
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
O Holy Saint Anthony, one of the gentlest and kindest of all the Saints, your burning love of GOD, your exalted virtue and your great charity towards your fellow-creatures, made your worthy, when on earth, to possess miraculous powers of an exalted kind. Miracles waited on your word, and that word your were ever ready to speak at the request of those in trouble. the anxious prayer of bitter trial was never addressed to you in vain. to the sick you gave back health; you restored what was lost, the sorrow-stricken were the objects of your tender compassion - even the death you raised to life when the wounded heart cried out to you from the depths of anguish. When on earth nothing was impossible to you, except not to have compassion on those in distress and sorrow. encouraged by this thought, of confidence, i implore of you to obtain for me...

(mention your request...)

The answer to this, my prayer may require a miracle. Even so, are you not the saint of Miracles, who when on earth had but to speak and the mightiest wonders were wrought? O gentle and loving St. Anthony, you whose heart was ever full of human sympathy, whisper my prayer into the ears of the Infant JESUS who loved to linger in your arms.

One word from you and my prayer will be granted. Oh, speak that word and the gratitude of my heart will ever be yours. Amen.

MAKE US HOLY LORD

❤️❤️HAPPY GREAT FEAST OF❤️❤️
IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY
🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱
TAKE TIME TO READ
O MARY
GIVE ME YOUR HEART
SO PURE
SO IMMACULATE
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

🙏🏻❤️Beloved in Christ, One of the most popular Marian devotions in the Catholic Church today is that of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, often honored alongside the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This devotion has its roots in Sacred Scripture, which makes frequent mention of Mary's contemplative heart, for example in Luke 2:19:

"But Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart."

❤️According to Catholic doctrine, Mary is the Immaculate Conception; that is, in preparation for the Incarnation of the Second Person of the Holy Trinity in her womb, Mary was conceived without the corruption of original sin, and was preserved from committing any actual sins throughout the course of her life through the infinite merits of her Son, Jesus Christ. She was virginal not only of soul, but also of body, both before and after giving birth to Our Lord.

❤️Our Lady was created literally "Full of Grace" as the Archangel Gabriel declared at the Annunciation, meaning that her soul was literally adorned with all of the virtues at the moment of her conception, as well as all the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit.

This fullness of grace is said to emanate from the center of her being—her heart—understood both physically and spiritually. It is Mary's heart, in its unspoiled created perfection, that is the source and wellspring of her purity . . . therefore her heart is called Immaculate.

Our Lord took His sacred humanity from the flesh and blood of his Blessed Mother; Christ's heart is taken from her heart. At Calvary, the perfect hearts of Jesus and Mary were united for the salvation of mankind. And this is why the Two Hearts are honored together.

While the Sacred Heart of Jesus is the source of Christ's burning love for humanity, and is largely spurned by the indifference of mankind towards Him, the Immaculate Heart of Mary is the source of Our Lady's burning love for God and her desire to bring souls to her Son, and is so often outraged by the offenses of mankind committed against her love.

THE HISTORY OF THE CATHOLIC DEVOTION TO THE
IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY

❤️Over the centuries, as the saints and theologians reflected on what it means for Our Lady to have pondered and treasured the sacred events from the life of Jesus in her heart, as attested in Scripture, Mary's heart began to be recognized as something to be imitated in daily practice.

Devotion to Mary's holy heart then developed, in much the same way as it did for the Sacred Heart, which was physically pierced by the lance on the Cross to give Eternal Life to men. So also does Mary's heart, which was also pierced (as prophesied by Simeon) in union with her Son, give life—that is, grace—to the Christian soul.

Beginning in the Middle Ages, this devotion to Our Lady's purity of heart began to flower, culminating in St. John Eudes actively promoting the devotion in the 17th century alongside that of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. He also worked to have a feast established for the Immaculate Heart of Mary, beginning in his native France.

❤️After the 1830 apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Paris, which gave rise to the Miraculous Medal, efforts were renewed to have devotion to the Immaculate Heart instituted as a feast for the universal Church. In this Marian apparition, Our Lady showed St. Catherine Laboure an image of a medal to be struck which would obtain many graces for those who wore it faithfully, especially the grace of conversion for sinners.

On the front of the medal was an image of Our Lady encircled with the words, O Mary, Conceived Without Sin, Pray for Us Who Have Recourse to Thee, confirming the dogma of her Immaculate Conception. One the reverse was an image of the Cross of Christ surmounted by the letter "M", and underneath it the symbols of Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary side-by-side, thus confirming the devotion to her holy heart.

THE MIRACULOUS MEDALS
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

The spreading popularity of the Miraculous Medal soon gave rise to a Marian confraternity based on her Immaculate Heart and her power to convert sinners. The Notre-Dame-des-Victoires of the Archconfraternity of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Refuge of Sinners was established in Paris in 1836 and quickly spread all over the world, with many graces, especially the conversion of sinners, obtained as a result. Then, in 1855, the feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (or Most Pure Heart of Mary) was approved by the Vatican, however, without establishing it for the universal Church.

Devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary rose to a new level after the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima. In her visitations to Lucia, Jacinta, and Francisco, Our Lady revealed a vision of her Immaculate Heart encircled with thorns which represented the many sins committed against her. At Fatima, Our Lady asked for Russia to be consecrated to her Immaculate Heart in order to prevent many calamities from occurring in the Church and throughout the world.

Lucia describes the vision:

“As Our Lady spoke these last words, she opened her hands and for the second time, she communicated to us the rays of that same immense light. We saw ourselves in this light, as it were, immersed in God. ... In front of the palm of Our Lady’s right hand was a heart encircled by thorns which pierced it. We understood that this was the Immaculate Heart of Mary, outraged by the sins of humanity, and seeking reparation.”

❤️At Fatima Our Lady also revealed her request for the faithful to make Communions of Reparation to her Immaculate Heart on five consecutive first Saturdays of the month. Therefore devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary is closely associated with acts of reparation for sins in order to obtain the salvation of sinners. When Sr. Lucia later asked Our Lord why he would not convert Russia without having it consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Our Lord replied,
?"Because I want My whole Church to acknowledge that Consecration as a triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, so that it may extend its cult later on, and put the Devotion to My Mother?s Immaculate Heart beside the Devotion to My Sacred Heart.?"

After the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima, the feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary was instituted for the universal Church by Pope Pius XII in 1944. The feast was originally celebrated on August 22nd, the octave day of the Solemnity of the Assumption. It was later moved to the Saturday following the feast of the Sacred Heart, so that the Two Hearts would appear side-by-side, Friday and Saturday, on the liturgical calendar. August 22nd was then made the feast of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary, connecting the Assumption to her reign in heaven (the 4th and 5th Glorious Mysteries of the Holy Rosary).

❤️Traditionally, the Church encourages special devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary during the entire month of August.

Today, while the feast of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus is a Solemnity, the feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary remains on the level of a memorial. Hopefully, as the requests of Our Lady of Fatima are more widely heeded, the Immaculate Heart of Mary will enjoy a special place in the heart of each and every Catholic around the world.

🌹Beloved Souls, The Saturday devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary follows the Friday devotion of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Although St. John Eudes is known as one of the “Saints of the Sacred Heart”, he also popularized the devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary during his time.

❤️To learn more about this devotion, let us reflect small on the 10 powerful quotes by notables Saints and great Souls on the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

“Mary, give me your Heart: so beautiful, so pure, so immaculate; your Heart so full of love and humility that I may be able to receive Jesus the Bread of Life and love Him as you love Him and serve Him in the distressing guise of the poor.” – Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta

“Be Not Afraid; my Immaculate Heart will be your refuge and your safe page to God.” – Our Lady of Fatima to Sis Lucia

“Sacrifice yourselves for sinners and say many times, especially when you make some sacrifice: ‘O Jesus, it is for Thy love, for the conversion of sinners and in reparation for sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.” – Our Lady of Fatima

“If you put all the love of the mothers into one heart it still would not equal the love of the Heart of Mary for her children.” – Saint Louis de Montfort

“The Immaculate alone has from God the promise of victory over Satan. She seeks souls that will consecrate themselves entirely to her, that will become in her hands forceful instruments for the defeat of Satan and the spread of God’s kingdom.” – Saint Maximilian Kolbe

“May I give you some advice for you to put into practice daily? When your heart makes you feel those low cravings, say slowly to the Immaculate Virgin: Look on me with compassion. Don’t abandon me. Don’t abandon me, my Mother! And recommend this prayer to others.” – Saint Josemaria Escriva, the founder of Opus Die

“I want My Church to…put the devotion to this Immaculate Heart beside the devotion to My Sacred Heart.” – Jesus to Sis Lucia

“Tell everybody that God grants graces through the Immaculate Heart of Mary” – Saint Jacinta Marto

“Mother, dear, lend me your heart. I look for it each day to pour my troubles into.” – Saint Gemma Galgani, A MYSTIC and STIGMATIST

“After the love which we give Jesus Christ, we must give the chief place in our heart to the love of His Mother Mary.” – Saint Alphonsus Ligouri, The Marian Doctor of the church.

🌹Beloved, may today's Great Feast of Immaculate Heart of Mary, inspire us to long and love in a very special way The Virtue of CHASTITY and PURITY in other to be pure in mind, body and soul in the likeness of our Heavenly Mother. Finally, may the fruits of today's Feast, lead us to the summit of Holiness. Amen.

🙏🏻I WISH YOU ALL HEAVEN AT LAST.
🌹🌹🌹

O, Immaculate Heart of Mary…reign in all Hearts. Amen
