Rosaries SAINT FAUSTINA KOWALSKA The Woman Behind The Vision During the dark and turbulent years preceding World War II, an unknown and largely unschooled Polish nun received an amazing revelation of the boundless mercy of God. Since then, this message about the Divine Mercy has swept the entire world. Despite great opposition, this frail sister never failed to keep her eye on God and her heart attuned to His message for all humanity. Among her many admirers is Pope John Paul II, who has made many pilgrimages to her tomb in Lagiewniki, Poland, near Krakow. She is Saint Faustina, the Apostle of Divine Mercy. From her impoverished childhood through the challenges of religious life to her final fatal illness and death at age thirty-three, Saint Faustina's piety and personality are presented as the backdrop against which God chose to display His love for all. The Divine MercyThe message of The Divine Mercy is simple. It is that God loves us — all of us. And, he wants us to recognize that His mercy is greater than our sins, so that we will call upon Him with trust, receive His mercy, and let it flow through us to others. Thus, all will come to share His joy.
The Divine Mercy message is one we can call to mind simply by
remembering ABC:
A - Ask for His Mercy. God wants us to approach Him in prayer constantly, repenting of our sins and asking Him to pour His mercy out upon us and upon the whole world. B - Be merciful. God wants us to receive His mercy and let it flow through us to others. He wants us to extend love and forgiveness to others just as He does to us. C - Completely trust in Jesus. God wants us to know that the graces of His mercy are dependent upon our trust. The more we trust in Jesus, the more we will receive. This message and the devotion to Jesus as The Divine Mercy is based on the writings of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska, an uneducated Polish nun who, in obedience to her spiritual director, wrote a diary of about 600 pages recording the revelations she received about God's mercy. Even before her death in 1938, the devotion to The Divine Mercy had begun to spread. The message and devotional practices proposed in the Diary of Saint Faustina and in the other publications of the Marians of the Immaculate Conception are completely in accordance with the teachings of Church and are firmly rooted in the Gospel message of our Merciful Savior. Properly understood and implemented, they will help us grow as genuine followers of Christ. Spend time to learn more about the mercy of God, learn to trust in Jesus, and live your life as merciful to others, as Christ is merciful to you. - from the National Shrine of the Divine Mercy and
the Marian Helpers.
