“I am mercy itself for the contrite soul. (…) Souls that make an appeal to My mercy delight Me. To such souls I grant even more graces than they ask. I cannot punish even the greatest sinner if he makes an appeal to My compassion, but on the contrary, I justify him in My unfathomable and inscrutable mercy.”
(Diary, 1739, 1146)
God invites each one of us to a unique relationship with Himself.
Therefore, we must endeavour to grow in this intimate friendship with our Lord through the spiritual and intellectual formation of the members of our Apostolate.
It is no accident that the first and fundamental form of growing in grace is daily prayer, for example, during the Hour of Mercy, especially the Eucharist, which we celebrate every weekday in the chapel of our Apostolate in London.
If we wish to be zealous Apostles of Divine Mercy, we must first immerse ourselves in this mystery of God’s Heart, which is wide open to each one of us! It is worth remembering here that in the spiritual life
“A small step, in the midst of great human limitations, can be more pleasing to God than a life which appears outwardly in order but moves throughout the day without confronting great difficulties. Everyone needs to be touched by the comfort and
attraction of God’s saving love, which is mysteriously at work in each person, above and beyond their faults and failings”.
(Francis, Evangelii Gaudium, 44)
