STARTING THE YEAR OF MERCY
Who would've thought that a Jubilee Year of Mercy would be so timely? Given the ongoing acts of terrorism, hate, and intolerance occurring with more frequency around the globe, there has never been a more important time to seek and share the loving mercy of our creator God.
As we learned from the Diary of Saint Faustina last week, Divine Mercy Devotion is a reminder of what the Church has always taught through scripture and tradition: that God is merciful and forgiving and that we, too, must show mercy and forgiveness. A deeper understanding is that God’s love is unlimited and available to everyone — especially the greatest sinners.
The Divine Mercy message is one we can call to mind simply by remembering ABC:
- A - Ask for His Mercy. God wants us to approach Him in prayer constantly, repenting of our sins and asking Him to pour His mercy out upon us and upon the whole world.
- B - Be Merciful. God wants us to receive His mercy and let it flow through us to others. He wants us to extend love and forgiveness to others just as He does to us.
- C - Completely Trust in Jesus. God wants us to know that the graces of His mercy are dependent upon our trust. The more we trust in Jesus, the more we will receive.
Devotion to The Divine Mercy involves a total commitment to God as Mercy. It is a decision to trust completely in Him, to accept His mercy with thanksgiving, and to be merciful as He is merciful. We hope you may come to trust completely in God and live each day immersed in His merciful love. "Lord Jesus Christ, you are the visible face of the invisible Father, of the God who manifests his power above all by forgiveness and mercy: let the Church be your visible face in the world, its Lord risen and glorified!"
