It is becoming more well known that the statues of Our Lady of Fatima do indeed show signs of change from sadness to joy, and even tears as is shown in the photos so kindly shared on this thread. The statue I borrowed to bring around the local parishes in my own area, was seen to change from joy to sadness, with the colour especially around the eyes so red, it was as if the image had been crying for a long time. I saw this myself. Others saw more signs, and I don't need to try and describe it all here. Those who believe will respond by increasing their love and devotion for our beloved Lord Who gave us this Heavenly Mother to school us in the ways of Heavenly life. Those who do not believe will not have a reason to make more effort to repent and change their lives before it is too late. Repent and believe the Gospel so you can be saved, that is all Blessed Mother wants. Whether you believe the holy images are showing signs or not. I do believe, and have come to the conclusion that when it says in the Gospel, if the Good News is not proclaimed, the very stones will cry out. Nowadays we witness so much silence from the pulpits, God is permitting holy images to weep and figuratively cry out, fulfilling the prophetic words of God through Jesus Christ in the Gospels. Repent and believe (the Gospel) before it is too late.
I don't think this is the same as the statue in Novia Scotia that I posted; but I was told this has happened in many places all over the world. I think the most famous, recognised in the Church was in Sicily back in the '50's. When you see what is going on in the Middle East at the moment it makes you think? A Warning? I sometimes think the statue crying in Sicily was a Warning of the Cuban Missile crisis shortly afterwards which was averted by a miracle.
I do not think it a coincidence that this morning while praying my Novena for Day 12 of The Virgin Mary in the Kingdom of the Divine Will, Our Lady tells us why She is crying (Her tears in so many of Her statues): "Oh, how much I have loved you my child! I wanted your acts in mine to make you happy and let you reign together with Me. And oh, how many times I called you and your acts; but to my greatest sorrow mine remained isolated; and I saw yours as lost in your human will, which - horrible to say - formed a kingdom, not divine, but human: the kingdom of passions, of sin of unhappiness and of misfortune. Your Mother wept over your misfortune and every act of human will that you do, knowing where the kingdom of unhappiness brings you. My tears STILL flow to make you understand the great evil you do." "My Mother, I love you. Love me too and give me a sip of the Will of God for my soul. Give me your blessing also, so that I might do all my actions under your maternal gaze." Let us offer the wretched rags of our human wills to Our Mother so that She can transform them into Divine Will.
