Summary/Abstract: The present article shows in a synthetic form, how Mary lightens up our darkness; in what sense we may call Her the Morning Star announcing the dawn of Resurrection. First of all Her faith is shown that on Good Friday and on Holy Saturday became the faith of the whole arising Church. Until today we have been remembering Mary’s faith and we have been learning it from Her every Saturday. But Mary also prepares us for the Messiah’s Second Coming and for our Resurrection. As a loving Mother, seeing our sins, She descends to the earth and in Fatima calls us to come to our senses, so that we do not offend God. She again reveals Herself as the Morning Star announcing the Lord’s Coming. It is up to each of us if we reply to Her motherly pleas, and if we indicate God’s light to other people.
