Friday-The Day of Mercy


Eucharist: The Presence of Mercy

In His great love for us, the Lord Jesus gave us a great miracle of mercy: the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist.
Several times in her Diary, St. Faustina writes of seeing the red and pale rays coming, not from the Image, but from the Sacred Host; and once, as the priest exposed the Blessed Sacrament, she saw the
rays from the Image pierce the Host and spread out from it all over the world. So too, with the eyes of faith, we should see in every Host the merciful Savior pouring Himself out as a fountain of mercy for us.
Excerpt from The Divine Mercy, Message and Devotion

Prayer to St. Faustina
Saint Faustina, you told us that your mission would continue after your death and that you would not forget us.
Our Lord also granted you a great privilege, telling you to distribute graces as you will, to whom you will, and when you will.
Relying on this, I ask your intercession for the graces I need, especially
(mention your intention)
Help me, above all, to trust in Jesus as you did and thus to glorify His mercy every moment of my life.
Amen.

May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.



Peace be with you!
Rosemarie
