Inexhaustible spring of mercy

Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace,
that we may receive mercy
and find grace to help in time of need. - Hebrews 4:16


 “You wanted to stay with us, and so you left us
yourself in the Sacrament of the Altar,
and you opened wide your mercy to us.
You opened an inexhaustible spring of mercy for us,
giving us your dearest possession, the Blood and Water,
that gushed forth from Your Heart” (Diary 1747).

"If we were to sit for an hour a few feet away from a radioactive
element, how much would that change effect us? The Lord is
infinitely more powerful than this and if we go to Him seeking grace
and mercy, how much more can we hope to be changed?" ~ St Faustina

 
St Faustina, pray for us -
that we may earnestly say,
Jesus I trust in You!
