Divine Mercy Daily
Reflections from the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska
Wed., September 13Jesus the Teacher God's Mercy Time and Again
As I was meditating on the sin of the Angels and their immediate punishment, I asked Jesus why the Angels had been punished as soon as they had sinned. I heard a voice: Because of their profound knowledge of God. No person on earth, even though a great saint, has such knowledge of God as an Angel has. Nevertheless, to me who am so miserable, You have shown Your mercy, O God, and this, time and time again. You carry me in the bosom of Your mercy and forgive me every time that I ask Your forgiveness with a contrite heart (Diary, 1332).
My Prayer Response: Lord Jesus, please help me to know You and Your greatest attribute, Your mercy. Help me to tell Your people of Your compassion and love. As I do, also give me courage to ask Your forgiveness whenever I sin.
