What do you make of this?

[Fergal]

I feel that I must share something with all of you that until now I have not shared with anyone else bar my wife.

I have a little tradition that I follow after the birth of each of my children and that is that I always go to visit the Blessed Sacrament in the hospital chapel in thanksgiving.

This time, having entrusted the pregnancy and birth of our child, Karl, to the Immaculate Heart of Our Lady, I was very moved by what I witnessed in that same hospital chapel.

On the floor just under the left side of the Altar as we face it, was a perfect image of Our Lady of Fatima. I only had my mobile phone and asked our Lord in the Tabernacle for permission to take the pictures. I took two. Those of you familiar with her image will see it perfectly presented here.

For the first time ever and not without some embarrassment and slight discomfort, I present these pictures for your discernment.

Some of you will laugh, some will question, some will see the grace presented for what it is. May God forgive me if I am looking too deeply into this and seeing what he did not intend. The only thing I ask of you all is a prayer.

Hi Fergal. First, I wanted to tell you how touched I was… to hear of your special devotion to the Blessed Sacrament… in giving thanks to Him, following the births of your children. In this horrible age of legalized abortion… it’s always so encouraging… to hear about parents like you and your wife, who want children and give thanks to God for them.

Thanks also, for sharing the photographs which you took in the hospital chapel. I can see what appears to be the outline of a Lady, in a long robe. And it does resemble Our Lady of Fatima. I agree. I recently read that God is all around us. We have only to notice.

I think the important thing here… is that this is an experience which has deepened your faith… and your trust in Our Lord and His Mother. How wonderful. God bless… and congratulations to you and your wife on the birth of little Karl. :angel1:
