Thanks AC. That’s a lovely card.
Thanks, Victoria — though it’s not nearly as colorful as yours!
What counts is the good intention.
And a nice artistic touch, too, I think. ;-)
Thank you! And I hope you have a wonderful Easter, also!

Thanks for the bump! I gave a presentation on the Divine Mercy last night, to the woman’s society at our parish. This was the first they ever heard of it and they absolutely loved it.

Sixth Day
“Today bring to Me The Meek and Humble Souls and the Souls of Little Children and immerse them in My mercy. These souls most closely resemble My Heart. They strengthened Me during My bitter agony. I saw them as earthly Angels who will keep vigil at My altars. I pour out upon them whole torrents of grace. Only the humble soul is capable of receiving My grace I favor humble souls with My confidence.”
Most Merciful Jesus, You Yourself have said, “Learn from Me for I am meek and humble of heart.” Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart all meek and humble souls and the souls of little children. These souls send all heaven into ecstasy, and they are the heavenly Father’s favorites. They are a sweet-smelling bouquet before the throne of God; God Himself takes delight in their fragrance. These souls have a permanent abode in Your Most Compassionate Heart, O Jesus, and they unceasingly sing out a hymn of love and mercy.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon meek souls, upon humble souls and upon little children, who are enfolded in the abode of the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest resemblance to Your Son. Their fragrance rises from the earth and reaches Your very throne. Father of mercy and of all goodness, I beg You by the love You bear these souls and by the delight you take in them: Bless the whole world, that all souls together may sing out the praises of Your mercy for endless ages. Amen.
**emphasizing how powerful it was to pray this on the Feast .. that Heavens gate and all Jesus mercy is there for us for the forgiveness of all sin and and release from punishment.**
Especially when it is prayed at 3:00 pm — the hour of Christ’s death. No prayer prayed at that time goes unanswered.
