 A New Focus on Mercy:
"Be merciful even as your Father is merciful" Luke 6:36 From the diary of a young Polish nun, named Sr. Faustina Kowalska, a special devotion to the mercy of God is spreading throughout the world. The message is nothing new, just a reminder of what the Church has always taught: that God is merciful and forgiving and that we, too, must show mercy and forgiveness.
But, in the Divine Mercy devotion, the message takes on powerful new focus, calling people to a deeper understanding that God's love is unlimited and available to everyone ~ especially the greatest sinners: The greater the sinner, the greater the right he has to My mercy.
Some of the elements of this new focus include a sacred image of the merciful Savior, several new prayers, and a cornucopia of promises. But the main elements are trust and deeds of mercy.
Devotion to The Divine Mercy involves a total commitment to God as Mercy. It is a decision to accept His mercy with thanksgiving, to trust completely in Him, and to be merciful as He is merciful.
The devotional practices proposed in the Diary of St. Faustina are completely in accordance with the teachings of the Church and are firmly rooted in the Gospel message of our Merciful Savior. Properly understood and implemented, they will help us grow as genuine followers of Christ.
