The Damned Being Cast into Hell - Abandon All Hope ye who enter here.
Day 7
The Vision of Hell
“Our Lady showed us a great sea of fire which seemed to be under the
earth.
Plunged in this fire were demons and souls in human form, like
transparent burning embers, all blackened or burnished bronze, floating about
in the conflagration, now raised into the air by the flames that issued from
within themselves together with great clouds of smoke, now falling back on
every side like sparks in a huge fire, without weight or equilibrium, and amid
shrieks and groans of pain and despair, which horrified us and made us tremble
with fear.
The demons could be distinguished by their terrifying and repulsive
likeness to frightful and unknown animals, all black and transparent.” – Lucia
Prayer
O Mary Immaculate, who at Fatima showed Lucia, Francisco, and Jacinta a
brief – but terrifying – glimpse of Hell, preserve us from its ravishing
flames, ”O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell.”
How generous was their response to thy maternal plea to “'Pray, pray
much, and sacrifice for sinners, for many souls go to Hell because there is no
one to offer sacrifices and pray for them.”
O Mother of Mercy, in thee God clothed Himself in our humanity that He
might redeem us from sin and open for us the gates of Paradise. The
immeasurable suffering of His Passion and Death should evince from our souls a
love commensurate with the abandon with which He shed His Precious Blood, and
yet we persist in our sins. Shake us from our spiritual lethargy by this vision
of Hell and move us to heed thy motherly plea to amend our own lives and pray
for sinners.
(Here mention your request)
Our Father
Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily
bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against
us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; Blessed art thou amongst
women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of death. Amen.
Glory Be
Glory be, to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it
was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
Our Lady of the Rosary of Fatima, pray for
us.
