Live God's Mercy

Dear Family of Mary!

This is Day 9 of our Novena for our countries and the world. One more time let us remember what Our Lady told St. Faustina:
 
Our Lady told St. Faustina: On the day of the Assumption of the Mother of God, I did not assist at Holy Mass. The woman doctor did not allow me; but I prayed fervently in my cell. After a short time, I saw the Mother of God, unspeakably beautiful. She said to me, My daughter, what I demand from you is prayer, prayer, and once again prayer, for the world and especially for your country. For nine days receive Holy Communion in atonement and unite yourself closely to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. During these nine days you will stand before God as an offering; always and everywhere, at all times and places, day or night, whenever you wake up, pray in the spirit. In spirit, one can always remain in prayer. (Diary 325)

Our Lady called us to

December 25, 2012 (Jakov) "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."

Our Lady wants her children to “live God’s mercy”. She calls us to say “no” to sin and surrender our heart to her Son, Jesus. This is what we can do each day, and also how we can pray for others. If we only knew the complete joy and peace that await us in the Mercy of God, we would drop everything else and run to prayer and conversion with all our hearts. 

As we convert ourselves, let us pray for the millions of souls that stand in need of God’s Mercy:
