“Rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when His glory is revealed” 1 Pt 4:13

793 I am reliving these moments with Our Lady.  With great longing, I am waiting for the Lord’s coming…I desire that all humankind come to know the Lord.  I would like to prepare all nations for the coming of the Word Incarnate.  O Jesus, make the fount of Your mercy gush forth more abundantly, for humankind…has more need than ever of Your compassion.  You are a bottomless sea of mercy for us sinners; and the greater the misery, the more right we have to Your mercy.  You are a fount which makes all creatures happy by Your infinite mercy.  -St. Faustina Kowalska

To understand what we do as a Church…to just have Faith (in the times of when we question is Faith enough?)  Remember we are a people of Hope!  To listen to two responses regarding the recent Supreme Court Ruling click on the links below (Speak Life & An Open Letter!)

It’s another Wednesday for Saint Maria Faustina KoWalska (what else,) with a brief reflection on the Divine Mercy of God:

(144)  I have noticed that, from the very moment I entered the convent, I have been charged with one thing; namely, that I am a saint.  But this word was always used scoffingly.  At first, this hurt me very much, but when I had risen above it, I paid no attention to it.  However, when on one occasion a certain person (perhaps Father Sopocko) suffered because of my sanctity, I was very pained that, because of me, others can experience some unpleasantness.  And I began to complain to the Lord Jesus, asking why this should be so, and the Lord answered me,  Are you sad because of this?  Of course you are a saint.  Soon I Myself will make this manifest in you, and they will pronounce the same word, saint, only this time it will be with love.
