The Isolation Coming from Darkness

Mary

When night descends, all work must cease because people cannot see each other. Darkness divides and isolates. Each person is on his own. Light joins and people can share their talents, helping one another to build a city of God.

But what if man decides to build his own city, with monuments to his own skills? When he abandons God’s light, darkness comes. This is the present state of the world. Man builds for himself. I am not speaking of his physical buildings that tower to the sky, but of the human world that he has fashioned.

In the beginning darkness, he uses all his resources for himself and forgets his neighbor. As the darkness grows, he uses resources for himself which he does not have. People and nations accrue debts and become enslaved to their spending. The final stage of darkness is a collapse of the structures which held life together. Darkness has completed its task – the complete separation of man, total isolation, and the inability to help one another to build the city of God.

Then come the wars, the divisions, the breaking off. Parts of society are abandoned. Due to the darkness, mankind can only think of itself, and of survival. People do not see that all the problems arise because mankind has abandoned God’s light. It is like putting out the sun and covering over the moon.

What can reverse the darkness? Is there some other source of light? Can light suddenly break upon the world, reversing this darkness? This light has already been given at Fatima. It only waits to be released. It lies totally in the Catholic Church, the light of the nations. When released, the Catholic Church will rise to its greatest height and will remain as the light upon the lampstand for all to see. Many events will happen before that moment. I speak so all maintain their hope.

Comment: When deciding to set aside God’s light, mankind does not see all the consequences.
