There’s no mercy for those who don’t show mercy.

“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.

- Galatians 6:7-9

I saw water flowing from the right side of the temple, alleluia; and all they to whom that water came were saved, and they shall say, alleluia, alleluia.

Praise the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy endureth forever.

May the balm of mercy reach everyone...

Do you know anyone else who talks like this? I don't. Jesus Christ never did.

Pope Francis also chose today, the feast of the Divine Mercy of Jesus to proclaim this special holy year.

I’m with Pope Francis. I think mercy is marvelous.

The Year of Mercy, Pope Francis wrote, is also a way to keep the Second Vatican Council alive. “The walls which too long had made the Church a kind of fortress were torn down and the time had come to proclaim the Gospel in a new way,” he said. The council recognised “a responsibility to be a living sign of the Father’s love in the world”.

While the Novus Ordo Mass was not supposed to turn into what it is today [at some parishes], the original rules were not strict enough to keep it in check (or whatever). Last week for five weekdays in a row, for example, ONLY Eucharistic ministers handed out Communion at our parish, because the priest said he had a cold and he didn't want to pass it to the parishioners. Imagine that?!? It's not something you'd ever see a Traditional Latin Mass priest do.

You put the balm on?

Who told you to put the balm on?

I didn't tell you to put the balm on.

Why'd you put the balm on?
