PREPARATORY PRAYER FOR DAYS 1-9 of this NOVENA with extra video of Padre Nuno, Fr. Anthony Gramlich, Fr. Elias Mary Mills, teaching the MEU DEUS together as the SANCTUARY OF OUR LADY OF FÁTIMA CELEBRATES today the apparition of the Angel in Valinhos.
MAKE THE SIGN OF THE CROSS.
MY QUEEN, and my Mother, remember I am thine own. Keep me, guard me, as thy property and possession!
Indulgence.
DAY 6: MEDITATION
WE ADMIRE the creative word of God, by which heaven and earth were called into existence.
But Mary's word, "Be it done to me according to thy word," is even mightier and more efficacious; for it commands the obedience even of the almighty Creator.
Without this word of humility and obedience, the incarnation of our divine Saviour would not have been accomplished.
Mary does not say, "I accept the proposal, I agree to the proposition," nor does she use other words of similar import.
She simply says, "Be it done to me according to thy word."
It was not her own choice, nor her own decision, but a voluntary, full, and complete surrender to the will of God that the message found in Mary's soul, which was expressed in these words.
What a source of consolation to her in the subsequent sorrowful and afflicted stages of her life was this complete surrender to God's will!
It comprised the tranquilizing assurance that He to whose designs she submitted, would endow her with the fortitude and strength necessary to co-operate with them.
PRACTICE
JUST as our divine Lord Himself became obedient unto death, thus also His incarnation and the motherhood of Mary were the result of obedience.
Again, in contemplating the works that in the course of time were undertaken in the Church for the glory of God and the salvation of man, we find that only those were really great, effective, and enduring, which had their beginning, continuation, and consummation in obedience.
Rejoice, then, if it is your happy lot to walk in the safe path of obedience. Avail yourself of every opportunity to submit your will to the will of your Superiors. They are the representatives of God. By obeying them we fulfil His will, not the will of men. St. Bonaventure calls obedience the key of heaven.

R. And she conceived of the Holy Spirit.

LEADER: Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God,
R. that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
ALL: POUR forth, we beseech Thee, O Lord, Thy grace into our hearts, that we unto whom the Incarnation of Christ Thy Son was made known by the message of an angel, may, by His passion and cross, be brought to the glory of His resurrection. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

Prayer for Day 6
HOLIEST Mary, if through thy modesty thou wert troubled at the appearance of the archangel Gabriel in thy dwelling, I am terrified at the sight of my monstrous pride. By thy incomparable humility, which brought forth God for men, reopened paradise and let the captive souls go free from their prison, draw me, I pray thee, out of the deep pit into which my sins have cast me, and make me save my soul.
Hail Mary…
