Our Lady of Fatima Novena
 
 

Day Five
 

"I am the Lady of the Rosary, and I have come to
warn the faithful to amend their lives and ask pardon
for their sins.  They must not continue to offend Our Lord
already so deeply offended."

In times of war there always seems to be a swift
and pitiful turning to God.

"Save us," even the sinful cry, "from the consequences
of the folly we have brought upon ourselves."

At the same time the cynical dares to ask why God
permits the wars into which men rush eagerly and
for which they plan craftily during the days of peace.

War over, God is forgotten, and back
they rush to their sins.

There can be an end to civil and international war only
when men give up their part in the war of evil
against good, of lies against truth,
of Satan against Christ.

If men will give up their sins,
they will give up their wars.

If men will stop offending God,
they will cease to give those miserable offenses
that result in national incidents and the
excuses for war.

The Prince of Peace will lead us only
when we cease to turn upon Him,
only when we cease to nail Him helpless
to the cross.

With a great desire for peace
we pray to Our Lady of Fatima:
 

The Prayer of the Queen of the Rosary

O God, whose only-begotten Son by His life, death
and Resurrection hath purchased for us the reward
of eternal salvation, grant, we beseech thee,
that meditating on these mysteries in the most holy
rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may both
imitate what they contain, and obtain what they
promise.  Through Our Lord Jesus Christ, who
livest and reignest with God the Father in the
unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
Amen.
