Here is another of the same sort, Our Lord to St. Faustina, from the Divine Mercy Diary. It is time for us to implore Our Lord for his unfathomable Mercy.

Remember that Our Lady and our Lord Himself told St. Faustina that her revelations and mission would have a special role in preparing the way for Christ’s final coming. Consider the following passages from the Diary of St. Faustina:

Secretary of My mercy, write, tell souls about this great mercy of Mine, because the awful day, the day of My justice is near (965).

Then I saw the Mother of God, who said to me ... “I gave the Savior to the world; as for you, you have to speak to the world about His great mercy and prepare the world for the Second Coming...” (635).

Write down these words, my daughter. Speak to the world about My mercy; let all mankind recognize My unfathomable mercy. It is a sign for the end times; after it will come the day of justice. While there is still time let them have recourse to the fount of My mercy ... (848).

Write: before I come as just Judge, I first open wide the door of My mercy (1146).

Today I am sending you with My mercy to the people of the whole world. I do not want to punish aching mankind, but I desire to heal it, pressing it to My Merciful Heart. I use punishment when they themselves force Me to do so; My hand is reluctant to take hold of the sword of justice. Before the Day of Justice I am sending the Day of Mercy (1588).

"Write: before I come as a just Judge, I first open wide the door of my Mercy"

I have been trying to keep to prayer over what's happening in the world and not give in to anger and despair. It's all I can do to resist wanting those responsible for these attacks on our nation to be struck down-But when I began to pray and turn to the One who can heal us (instead of letting myself go into dark places), the strongest thought that came to me was "Mercy-Pray for My Mercy for everyone."

(I can tell you that this thought did not come from me - I was thinking about lightning and punishments for those directly attacking Christianity and tearing down our traditions -causing massive confusion the world over.)

The more I prayed the more the concept of mercy occurred to me. It wasn't easy at first but this is what I will be praying for from now on-along with the prayers for clergy and other intentions asked for by Our Lady of Good Success.

As much as we might complain about all the confusion, scandals, and general madness in the world,-It must be even worse for priests and nuns who have dedicated their whole lives to our Lord- they are under constant attack-I hope they know that they do matter-Even if it's just people who see them in everyday activities out in public-like shopping at grocery store exc- They are a sign of God's presence in our world. God Bless them.

A final thought- I don't believe it is a coincidence that Mercy is what is needed and that -Thanks be to God for the simple , yet profound, Grace given to the pious families of the victims in the S.C. shootings-That let them be able to pray for God to have His Mercy on the soul of the murderer-It is not coincidence that this happened and that Mercy is what is called for now for all of us.

I got into saying The Divine Mercy prayers after my mother died. I say it every day at various times . In the 2000's I started having accurate dreams that became true. They were personal . All died. People I knew friends or family. One was a friend of mine's daughter. I saw the channel 12 long Island newscast of her death being reported in my dream before it happen then saw the same when it was reported several months later. It was the same town , same anchor , same girl and same way she died. She died from a drive by shooting. It happens after I say my Divine Mercy prayers then go to sleep usually. I only get a rare few a year.

I had two about the nation. One has Obama in a grass field all alone as he gets out of the limo with a handful of secret service. He looks up at an invading army parachute men coming down out of the sky. I have it on my profile near the bottom. Remember the Divine Mercy prayers are for the last moments of a persons life for total forgiveness. I am also thinking for our nation of people's souls since we pray for many in the pray chaplet words. I do believe It is for the end times by Christ. But I believe USA is going to be knocked out as a super power for the more exact events of the book of Revelation.
