PART 4
SAINT JACINTA MARTO
PASSIONATE FOR THE GOOD SHEPHERD
I am the good shepherd. A good shepherd lays down his life
for the sheep……I am the good shepherd and I know mine and mine know me…….and I
will lay down my lie for the sheep.
Jn
10, 11.14-15
Jacinta also loved to hold the little white lambs tightly in
her arms, sitting with them on her lap, fondling them, kissing them and
carrying them home at night on her shoulders, so that they wouldn’t get tired.
One day on her way back , she walked along in the middle of the flock.
-Jacinta- I asked her- what are you doing there,in the
middle of the sheep?
-I want to do the same as Our Lord, in that holy picture
they gave me He’s just like this, right in the middle of them all and He’s
holding one of them in His arm.
I don’t know how it is ! But I feel Our Lord within me. I
understand what He says to me, although I neither see Him nor hear Him, but it
is so good to be with Him!
JACINTA’S SECRET
SHE PASSIONATELY LOVED EVERYONE’S SALVATION
JACINTA’S love for
Jesus led her to a profound compassion for sinners. She worried about the
salvation of all people and took advantage of everything she could to offer in
sacrifice for the redemption of those who Jesus loved. Fatima is a call for
each one to assume their responsibility towards their salvation of others.
