We should aspire to the mercy of the Lord<\/h2>\n<\/hgroup>\n

The Lord wants Mercy to \u00a0happen to us. <\/span>Is beautiful as is inspired by the liturgical calendar. <\/span>Today is the day that the Lord is willing to pour out his His mercy, which is infinite, and He was the one who revealed this to Saint Faustina. <\/span>Pope John Paul II instituted the feast of mercy and died on the eve of one of these feasts. <\/span>The liturgical feasts are celebrated on the eve, then, from 6:oopm hours,the ceremony begins .<\/span><\/p>\n

Already into\u00a0the feast of mercy, the Lord took\u00a0Pope John Paul II. <\/span>God had a special choice. <\/span>Today, he [John Paul II] intercedes for all people, for them tobe\u00a0open to Mercy. <\/span>Saint Paul tells us in 1 Timothy 1, 12ss: <\/span>“Thanks to the one who gave me strength, Jesus Christ our Lord, because I judged worthy of trust and called me to the Ministry, who once was a blasphemer, persecutor and an insulter.<\/span>But reached for mercy, because I hadn’t received the faith and acted out of ignorance “<\/span><\/em>. Paul railed against the Christians and persecuted them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus tells him: <\/span>“Saul, Saul why are you persecuting me? <\/span>(Acts 9.4).<\/span><\/em> How many injuries did commit against Jesus. <\/span>You know your life and know everything you’ve done. <\/span>You know the wicked ways you are following, your\u00a0sins and hardness of your heart. <\/span>He knows your past and your present, and now He’s coming to save you. <\/span>There is the mercy of the Father to accomplish the salvation in Jesus. <\/span>You may say: “I walked the wrong paths, but the Lord was with me.” <\/span>Jesus is with you. <\/span>We believe that when we dropped\u00a0the ball ‘ he forgot us. <\/span>But no, instead, he’s pretty close. <\/span>If that’s ingrained in you, that you get that mentality.<\/span><\/p>\n

There is Mercy from him: the heart of Jesus is our misery. <\/span>You had the grace to have a personal encounter with Jesus, this unforgettable moment that the Lord gets in and changes the direction of your life, it comes with so much mercy and forgiveness, which we welcome. <\/span>If you haven’t had this grace, do it today. <\/span>He is working in your heart, don’t leave it for later, Jesus is taking your heart in his hands. <\/span>Mercy is the place of sinners.<\/span><\/p>\n

Saint Faustina says in paragraph 1146 of her diary: <\/span>“put your hope in my mercy the greatest sinners.<\/span>They are more right than others to trust in the abyss of my mercy. <\/span>My daughter, write about my mercy for busy souls. <\/span>Cause I enjoy the souls who turn to my mercy. <\/span>These souls I give graces\u00a0that exceed their requests. <\/span>I can’t punish, even the greatest of sinners, if he has recourse to my compassion, but the answer is in my unfathomable and inscrutable mercy. <\/span>Writes: before coming to the just judge, open wide the doors of my mercy. <\/span>Who doesn’t want to pass through the door of mercy, will have to pass through the door of my justice. “<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
