Recall the Divine Mercy Novena and our Lord's specific request for Day 9 - the final day of the Novena.

"Today bring to Me SOULS WHO HAVE BECOME LUKEWARM,* and immerse them in the abyss of My mercy. These souls wound My Heart most painfully. My soul suffered the most dreadful loathing in the Garden of Olives because of lukewarm souls. They were the reason I cried out: 'Father, take this cup away from Me, if it be Your will.' For them, the last hope of salvation is to run to My mercy."

Consider including this vast group of souls in your daily prayers.

Catholic ping!

For me, I’ve been able to identify with this description, and its corresponding admonition in Scripture (cf Rev 3:16). I often fear I fit into this category much to easily, without much resistance or thought on my part. I can only rely on His Mercy, for the more I examine my conscience daily the more I realize how much I fall short.

My God, have mercy on me a sinner.

.
When you are unemployed and you have prayed your heart out for a job, and there is no answer, it’s hard to believe in the abyss God’s mercy.

Lack of catechesis has brought us the lukewarm Catholics.

All pastors need to have an Adult Education program at the top of their priorities.
