No need for the Church to take the rough terrain when a more gentle path calls. No need to walk in human darkness when divine light can flood the Church. As a child, Mary was presented in the temple. She was saved from much worldly darkness and preserved in the most precious light. She will do this same favor for her Church. These past years of her darkness need not have happened. These years of confusion, division, and disruption should have taken place. They were supposed to be years of triumph, the glory of Fatima coming to its full noonday sun. Instead, that sun is setting and darkness covers the earth as mankind trembles at the forces released by that darkness. Satan will use this coming year as a mockery of Fatima. He wants to eclipse the 100th anniversary of her apparitions by pouring forth new darkness. He wants to turn Mary’s triumph into his victory. However, as Satan takes the stage, she will be working in the wings, bringing about a hidden work which will come forth later.
