Easter Friday
Divine Mercy Novena - Day Eight
Dear Family of Mary!
Today
we pray for the Souls in Purgatory. Jesus told St. Faustina that
between Him and all souls there is a bottomless abyss that separates us
from Him. But He told her this abyss is filled with His Mercy which
lifts us to Himself. May the Souls be lifted up to Jesus on this Feast
of Divine Mercy!
"Dear children, give the gift of your life to me and completely surrender to me so that I may help you to comprehend my motherly love and the love of my Son for you. My children, I love you immeasurably and today, in a special way, on the day of the birth of my Son, I desire to receive each of you into my heart and to give a gift of your lives to my Son. My children, Jesus loves you and gives you the grace to live in His mercy, but sin has overtaken many of your hearts and you live in darkness. Therefore, my children, do not wait, say 'no' to sin and surrender your hearts to my Son, because only in this way will you be able to live God's mercy and, with Jesus in your hearts, set out on the way of salvation." (December 25, 2012. Jakov)
Jesus speaks to with St. Faustina:
+
Hail to You, Eternal Love, my Sweet Jesus, who have condescended to
dwell in my heart! I salute You, O glorious Godhead who have deigned to
stoop to me, and out of love for me have so emptied Yourself as to
assume the insignificant form of bread. I salute You, Jesus,
never-fading flower of humanity. You are all there is for my soul. Your
love is purer than a lily, and Your presence is more pleasing to me than
the fragrance of a hyacinth. Your friendship is more tender and subtle
than the scent of a rose, and yet it is stronger than death. O Jesus,
incomprehensible beauty, it is with pure souls that You communicate
best, because they alone are capable of heroism and sacrifice. O sweet,
rose-red blood of Jesus, ennoble my blood and change it into Your own
blood, and let this be done to me according to Your good pleasure.
Know,
My daughter, that between Me and you there is a bottomless abyss, an
abyss which separates the Creator from the creature. But this abyss is
filled with My mercy. I raise you up to Myself, not that I have need of
you, but it is solely out of mercy that I grant you the grace of union
with Myself.
Tell
souls not to place within their own hearts obstacles to My mercy, which
so greatly wants to act within them. My mercy works in all those hearts
which open their doors to it. Both the sinner and the righteous person
have need of My mercy. Conversion, as well as perseverance, is a grace
of My mercy.
Let
souls who are striving for perfection particularly adore My mercy,
because the abundance of graces which I grant them flows from My mercy. I
desire that these souls distinguish themselves by boundless trust in My
mercy. I myself will attend to the sanctification of such souls. I will
provide them with everything they will need to attain sanctity. The
graces of My mercy are drawn by means of one vessel only, and that is -
trust. The more a soul trusts, the more it will receive. Souls that
trust boundlessly are a great comfort to Me, because I pour all the
treasures of My graces into them. I rejoice that they ask for much,
because it is My desire to give much, very much. On the other hand, I am
sad when souls ask for little, when they narrow their hearts. (1575 - 1578 Diary)
Divine Mercy Novena Day Eight:
Today
bring to Me THE SOULS WHO ARE DETAINED IN PURGATORY, and immerse them
in the abyss of My mercy. Let the torrents of My Blood cool down their
scorching flames. All these souls are greatly loved by Me. They are
making retribution to My justice. It is in your power to bring them
relief. Draw all the indulgences from the treasury of My Church and
offer them on their behalf. Oh, if you only knew the torments they
suffer, you would continually offer for them the alms of the spirit and
pay off their debt to My justice.
Most Merciful Jesus, You Yourself have said that You desire mercy; so I bring into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls in Purgatory, souls who are very dear to You, and yet, who must make retribution to Your justice. May the streams of Blood and Water which gushed forth from Your Heart put out the flames of Purgatory, that there, too, the power of Your mercy may be celebrated.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls suffering in Purgatory, who are enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. I beg You, by the sorrowful Passion of Jesus Your Son, and by all the bitterness with which His most sacred Soul was flooded: Manifest Your mercy to the souls who are under Your just scrutiny. Look upon them in no other way but only through the Wounds of Jesus, Your dearly beloved Son; for we firmly believe that there is no limit to Your goodness and compassion. Amen.
