That s why Blessed Mother has asked that we pray for those lost souls in purgatory. Especially the ones who are not from families who believe in purgatory. These souls have no one to pray for them - so we must do this. Fasting, penance and reconciliation are very important to our pray and conversion make-up. We must give thanks, not only to graces we are given, but we must be thankful for the crosses God gives us well.
Nothing is coincidence.
God has a very special plan for each one of us and loves us abundantly and individually. The Blessed Mother has also given the children secrets for the world. These secrets contain future chastisements for the world. There are 10 secrets in total. The 7th secret has been, fortunately, mitigated due to the number of conversions that have taken place since 1981, but the ninth and tenth are much worst and Mirjana has told us that no amount of prayer will mitigate the tenth secret.
