Come

“Breathe in me, O Holy Spirit, that my thoughts may all be holy.
Act in me, O Holy Spirit, that my work, too, may be holy.
Draw my heart, O Holy Spirit, that I love but what is holy.
Strengthen me, O Holy Spirit, to defend all that is holy.
Guard me, then, O Holy Spirit, that I always may be holy. Amen.” St Augustine’s prayer to the Holy Spirit.

I pray for you brothers and sisters that together we see the mercy of Christ and through our life show the world to His Divine Mercy.
Be willing to be holy and open yourself to God’s vision of you. He made you for ONE purpose – to love and worship Him in this life and the next…to be a saint. He sees the saint in you because He made you. He sent His Son to set you on the path to holiness. You are on The Road of Faith by God’s design and under His constant, watchful eye.

Through Holy Week, we climb our Via Della Rossa, through the throngs of sin, upward toward the cross. Jesus is waiting there upon the cross. The world means this cross to be one of condemnation, but, Jesus cries out mercy.

Approach the crucifix without fear. Carry the cross of your sin and lay it upon Calvary for Divine Mercy to wipe it clean. Don’t look back down the hill toward the road you’ve walked. Your sin lies in the dust alongside the road. Before and above you hangs mercy.

“tell souls that I am giving them My mercy as a defense. I Myself am fighting for them and am bearing the just anger of My Father” Divine Mercy in my soul # 1516

Know that if you climb this hill with a truly contrite heart, nothing stands between you and mercy. Climb Calvary, go to the Sacrament of Confession and commit your future to Jesus, surrender to Divine Mercy.

“I am mercy itself for the contrite soul. A soul’s greatest wretchedness does not enkindle Me with wrath; but rather, My Heart is moved towards it with great mercy” Divine Mercy in my soul # 1739
