Reflection for Today
Today we pray for hope in the triumph of Mary's Immaculate Heart and the conversion of sinners. Hope is the virtue that sustains us in difficult times and keeps us focused on God's promises.
At Fatima, Mary gave us a message of hope. She promised that her Immaculate Heart would triumph, bringing peace to the world and conversion to sinners. This promise gives us hope that no matter how dark the world may seem, good will ultimately triumph over evil.
Mary's promise at Fatima is not just for the future, but for our present needs as well. She wants us to hope in her intercession for our daily struggles and difficulties. She wants us to trust that she will help us in all our needs.
The three children at Fatima showed great hope in Mary's promises. Even when they faced persecution and doubt from others, they continued to hope in Mary's message and to trust in her care for them.
As we pray today, let us ask Mary to increase our hope. Let us ask her to help us trust in her promise that her Immaculate Heart will triumph. Let us hope that through her intercession, our world will find peace and that all sinners will be converted and return to God.
