TERESA OF CALCUTTA
God will
fully satisfy every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ
Jesus.”-Phil 4:19
Psalm 33, verse 18-19
18 Behold, the eye
of the LORD is upon those who fear him, upon those who count on his
mercy, 19To deliver their
soul from death, and to keep them alive through famine.
You
cannot receive if you do not ask. Let us ask for God’s mercy and count on it,
to deliver our soul from death and keep us alive through this earthly famine
for ourselves and others. In fact one pious work we could do this week is a
Novena to the Divine Mercy. In the novena Christ asks us to pray each day for a
certain groups of people.
1.
All
Sinners
2.
Priests
and Religious
3.
Devout
Souls
4.
Unbelievers
5.
Departed
brethren
6.
Children
7.
Saints
8.
Those
in purgatory
9.
And
the Lukewarm
A
good time to pray the novena is the hour of Christ’s death. “At three
o’clock, implore My mercy, especially for sinners; and, if only for a brief
moment, immerse yourself in My Passion, particularly in My abandonment at the
moment of agony. This is the hour of great mercy…”
Today
if you have time would be a good day to read Saint John Paul II’s encyclical[1]
letter-Rich in Mercy.
Today
is my first born son Christopher Gabriel’s 41st birthday please pray
for his intentions. (His name means Bearer of Christ with the strength of God)
