The World Faces a Food Crisis
The cost of food.
Have you noticed the trips to the grocery store are costing you a lot more these days? I assumed it was just our economy and inflation causing it - although it appears the causes are far more complex and varied. One reason is that farm lands once planted for food are now used to harvest corn for fuel, among other things. This evening, ABC News aired a spot on the emerging world-wide food crises. If it continues, it may not just affect the poor of other countries either.
News such as this causes me to wonder if the Third Secret of Fatima doesn’t in the end, refer to our times. Blessed Jacinta of Fatima had a vision of a “little Holy Father”, praying with tears as great numbers of people were outside - hurling insults and curses against him, while at the same time, she observed, “highways and roads and fields full of people who are crying with hunger and have nothing to eat.”
Lucia cautioned Jacinta not to speak of her vision since it concerned the Third Secret of Our Lady. After the beatification of Jacinta and Francisco, Cardinal Ratzinger later affirmed - with the interpretation of the Third Secret of Fatima by the CDF - that the secret had finally been fully revealed. Although it could be said he left open the possibilty that the contents of the secret may not have been fully realized when he stated, ”it seems” these things have already been fulfilled. I wonder?

Personally, I think Pope Benedict is the pope of the prophecies, not just of Fatima, but Don Bosco, and St. Pius X as well.

Didn’t Bosco have a dream about the pope on a ship? Why do you think Benedict is the pope of the prophecies?

Because Don Bosco had that dream of a pope on a ship and Benedict was on a ship in Cologne and most likely will be in Australia too. What if that was my reason - LOL!
Seriously, if you are familiar with the prophecy of Pius X, compare it to the 3rd secret and then consider Don Bosco’s dream - it seems to me that both JPII and Benedict are the popes of those prophecies - although it seems Benedict plays the definitive role. But what do I know?
Just the image of a pope praying at the site of 9/11 is enough to reccall the 3rd secret and the vision of Pius X. And considering the martyrdom of clergy, religious and lay people around the world suggests to me these things may be unfolding now.
It is just my personal opinion however - what do I know.

Very interesting you would wonder if the prophecies were already fullfilled–I’ve wondered the same thing, but since, “After the beatification of Jacinta and Francisco, Cardinal Ratzinger later affirmed - with the interpretation of the Third Secret of Fatima by the CDF - that the secret had finally been fully revealed.” I guess I would have to go with our now Pope.

I’m not familiar with the vision of St. Pius X. A quick internet search came up empty? Can you tell me what the vision was? Thanks

I am so sad about this.
Not being able to eat, to feed your kids - my God, what a horrid end.
I am heartbroken for the world.

Ma - somehow I don’t think you are as sad about this as you say… LOL!
