The Means to Mercy

Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

“Let's call to mind all those. We've promised to pray for. I believe in God the Father”

Almighty Creator of Heaven and Earth. I believe in Jesus Christ His only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate. It was crucified died and was buried. He descended into hell.

On the third day He rose again. He ascended into heaven and He seated at the right hand of the

Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting. Amen. Our Father, Wharton heaven, hollowed be your name. I kingdom come by. We'll be done on Earth as it is and heaven.

“Give us a stair, daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses. As we forgive those who”

trespass against us and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil amen. Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed are Thou among women. Blessed is a fruit of thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us and earn us now in the hour of our death. Amen. Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee.

“Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the”

beginning as noun of our shall be, world without end amen. Our first mystery, I was recently in

Medjugorje. The Vatican through the dichastory for the doctrine of the faith has given Medjugorje a kneel obstant, the highest positive evaluation possible under the new guidelines. Law is there. Maryana, one of the visionaries, related what she experiences when she's given a vision of the Blessed Virgin Mary or heaven. She said she is so totally captivated by God that every good desire in her being is perfectly satisfied and she experiences a complete trust

that God will take care of her loved ones. So in the presence of God, she experiences perfect love, joy and peace. Well, that's exactly what Jesus wants to give. All of us

and he wants that to begin here and that is the whole point of divine mercy.

Jesus wants to give you His mercy. He wants to give you Himself so that you can experience total happiness, joy and peace. Our Father, who art in heaven, hollowed be your name. Thy kingdom come thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven. Give us a stay or a dearly bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation, deliver us from evil amen. Hail Mary, full of

grace, the Lord is with thee blessed, our Thou among women blessed is the fruit of thy will, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us in our hands now and in the hour of our death amen.

As it was in the beginning as nouned for shall be, world without end amen. All my Jesus.

Forgive us, our sins, save us from the fires of hell. Lead all souls to have an especially

those most need of thy mercy. Our second mystery, Jesus gave us many ways to receive His mercy.

“Today we reflect on three, the image of divine mercy, confession and the Eucharist.”

On February 22nd, 1931, Jesus appeared to Faustina. In her diary, she relates in the evening when I was in my cell. That's kind of weird for people. In her room, they used to call their rooms a cell. She said, I saw the Lord Jesus clothed in a white garment. One hand was raised in the gesture of blessing. The other was touching the garment at the breast. From beneath the garment, slightly drawn aside at the breast, there were emanated two large rays. One red, the other pale.

In silence, I kept my gaze fixed on the Lord. My soul was struck with awe, but also with great joy. After a while, Jesus said to me, paint an image according to the pattern you see.

“With the signature, Jesus, I trust in you. Later, Jesus said, by means of this image,”

I shall be granting many graces to souls so that every soul have access to it. I encourage you to place an image of divine mercy in a prominent or central place in your home. In fact, Theresa and I pray the rosary before a large, very beautiful image of the divine mercy every day. Now, Jesus explained to Faustina that the white ray stands for the two sacraments that cleanse and give life to the soul, baptism in confession, and the red ray stands for the body

and blood of Jesus that comes to us in the Eucharist, which is the life of souls.

The image of divine mercy is a powerful reminder that if we want mercy, healing and the

divine life that flows from the heart of Jesus, all we need to do is come to Him in reconciliation and the Eucharist. Or Father who art in heaven, hollowed be your name, that kingdom come, that will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us a stare, daily bread, and for you, best our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil amen. Hail Mary, full of grace to Lord is with thee, blessed art,

all among women, blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us in our ensnown at the hour of our death, amen. Hail Mary, full of grace to Lord is with thee, blessed art, all among women, blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

“pray for us in our ensnown at the hour of our death, amen. Hail Mary, full of grace to Lord is with”

Mother of God, pray for us in our ensnown at the hour of our death, amen. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, as now and for shall be,

“world without end, amen. Oh, my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell,”

lead all souls to have an especially those most in need of thy mercy. Our third mystery,

Jesus wants to pour His mercy into our soul by means of the sacrament of reconciliation. He said to Faustina, "Right, speak of my mercy. Tell souls where they are to look for solace. That is in the tribunal of mercy. The sacrament of reconciliation. They are the greatest miracles take place and are insessantly repeated. To avail oneself of this miracle, it's not necessary to go on a great pilgrimage or to carry out some external ceremony.

It's suffices to come with faith to the feet of my representative and to reveal to him one's misery and the miracle of divine mercy will be fully demonstrated. We're a soul like a decaying corpse, so that from a human standpoint, there would be no hope of restoration and everything would be already lost. It's not so with God. The miracle of divine mercy restores that soul in full.

“Oh, how miserable are those who do not take advantage of the miracle of divine mercy?”

Teresa, a pilgrim with me in Medjugorje was so afraid to go to confession, but finally,

after she watched people over and over come out of the confessionals with such joy, she finally got up the courage to go and when she came out, she had tears of joy and she said to me, "Why did I wait so long to be set free from this weight of guilt?" But even Faustina, this great saint, even she struggled with telling her sins to a man in confession. But then Jesus reassured her saying, "Daughter, when you go to confession to this fountain of

my mercy, the blood and water which came forth from my heart always flows down upon the soul

and enobles it. When you approach the confessional, know this, that I myself am waiting there for you. I am only hidden by the priest, but I myself act in the soul. Our father, Wharton Heaven, hallowed be your name, that kingdom come, that will be done on earth as it is in Heaven." Give us a stare, daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, Amen.

As it was in the meeting, as now in the first shall be, world without end, amen.

Oh, my Jesus? Revis our sins, service from the fires of hell, lead all souls to have an especially those most in need of thy mercy. Our fourth mystery. Jesus desires to pour an ocean of mercy into our soul by means of the Eucharist. In the diary, Jesus said to Faustina, "My great delight is to unite myself with souls."

“That is such an important line because that tells us right there what mercy is.”

Mercy is Jesus. He wants to give Himself to you. Then he said to her, "No, my daughter, that when I come to a human heart in Holy Communion, my hands are full of all kinds of graces which I want to give to the soul." But then Jesus, I won't say He complained, but He lamented. Can I say lamented to Faustina? They have time for everything, but they have no time to come to

me for graces. He said, "It's amazing. The true remedy for our wounds is Jesus Himself

received frequently in the Eucharist and sought humbly in regular confession, at least once a month, and welcomed daily through meditation that opens our soul to Jesus. But we resist.

“I think it's because we want a quick fix without any effort. We don't want to do the work”

and we're not patient. So we avoid the path He gave us and we look for healing in all the wrong places. Remaining stuck with the very wounds that only He can heal. Our father Wharton Heaven, howl it would be your name, by kingdom come by will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us a stay, our daily bread and forgive us, our trespasses, as we forgive those who

trespass against us and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil amen. Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed our Thou among women blessed is a fruit of thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us in our ensnown at the hour of our death, amen. Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed our Thou among women blessed is a fruit of thy womb Jesus.

As it was in the beginning, as now and to for shall be, world without end, amen.

“Oh, my Jesus. For give us our sins, save us from the fires of hell.”

Lead all souls to have and especially those most in need of thy mercy. Our fifth mystery. This is Day 7 of the Novina to Divine Mercy. Jesus said, "Today bring to me the souls who especially venerate and glorify my mercy and immerse them in my mercy. These souls sorrowed most over my passion and entered most deeply into my spirit. They are living images of my compassion at heart. These souls will shine with a special

brightness in the next life. Not one of them will go into the fire of hell. I shall particularly defend each one of them at the hour of death. Most merciful Jesus whose heart is love itself receive into the abode of your most

“compassionate heart. The souls of those who particularly stall and venerate the greatness of”

your mercy. These souls are mighty with the very power of God Himself. In the midst of all afflictions and adversities, they go forward confident of your mercy. These souls are united to Jesus and carry all mankind on their shoulders. These souls will not be severely judged. But your mercy will embrace them as they depart from this life. A soul who praises the goodness of her Lord is especially loved by him.

She is always close to the living fountain and draws graces from divine mercy.

Eternal Father, turn your merciful gaze upon the souls who glorify and venerate your greatest attribute, that of your fathomless mercy and who are enclosed in the most compassionate heart of Jesus. These souls are a living gospel. Their hands are full of deeds of mercy and their spirit overflowing with joy, sing a canticle of mercy to you. Almost high, I beg you, O God, show them your mercy according to the hope and trust they

have placed in you. Let there be accomplished in them the promise of Jesus who said to them, "I myself will defend as my own glory during their lifetime and especially at the hour of their death, those souls who will venerate my fathomless mercy." Our Father, who art in heaven, hollowed be your name, thy kingdom come thy will be down on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us a stay, our daily bread and forgive us, our trespasses. As we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation, deliver us from evil amen.

Same Michael, the archangel, Defendos, in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and

snares of the devil. Make God review, Kim, we humbly pray, and do thou, oh Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell, Satan, and all the evil spirits who proud throughout the world seeking the root of souls in the name of the Father and the Son, the Holy Spirit. Amen. Trees, I got a fantastic message from one of the people who praise with us every day. Let me

share it with you. Here's what they wrote. I had experienced a break in my relationship with my mother

“because of decisions she made that left me hurt and upset. But in early February, I think on the”

fifth and sixth, the Meditations focused on resentment and anger. I could feel that the message was meant for me. So I booked a trip to visitor, intending to make a men's. During the visit, we actually shared good meals in meaningful conversation, and I spoke openly about what had caused the separation. But because of her mental state, she had no recollection of those events, and it became clear that the anger and resentment I carried were only hurting me.

On the final day, when I went to pick her up for lunch, she didn't answer her phone or the door. With the help of staff, I entered and found her still asleep.

“As I waited for her to wake, a sobering thought struck me. What if I had found her gone?”

That would have been a lost opportunity forever. In that moment, I knew how I had done the right thing. Even on the way home, the meditation on pulling out the roots of hate, confirmed it.

God and our lady are always speaking and guiding us if we are just willing to listen and act.

What a fantastic testimony. That's incredible. I mean, I think that it really moves me near to tears. That just takes such incredible courage, but really, really powerful, perspective. Yeah. I mean, I was so striking. I don't even know how to put it in the words. I want to leave this person anonymous, but they put it so perfectly that their mother didn't even remember what the problem was. What's that line about resentment? Resentments like drinking poison,

“hoping the other person dies? I think, yeah, we just hold on and we fester and we just feel constantly”

tortured by something. That's not bothering the other person. In hopes that it's hurting someone else. And really even like the desire to hurt someone else by that experience, just hurts us. Yeah.

Yeah. That's really beautiful. What a powerful, what a powerful witness of, sorry. I'm using

That's what it's all about. Thank you for sharing it. Yeah. So Ana, I want to get to your thoughts

“on this meditation with with with with Faustina and Divine Mercy. But before that, I I want”

all of the people that are praying with us. Everyone who's praying with us. I want everybody to either read the book or go to the movie Project Hail Mary. We've been talking about this all day. But we can't you and I can't talk about it until everybody goes. I see it. Everyone's either got to go to spoiler warning podcasts at some point. Yeah. I mean, I want to talk about this. You and I probably, what people don't know is that sometimes in these episodes, we don't really

edit. We don't edit the conversation or the meditations in post once you've recorded them. But sometimes we'll pause between each decade. And you and I will just talk about whatever we're thinking about or continue a conversation we were having before if it's really captivating. And we have not been able to stop talking about the themes of courage and friendship in Project Hail Mary. Yeah. It was perfect. Yeah. This this very popular movie out right now,

which is it comes from a book, Project Hail Mary. The as you just said, the two most important themes,

which are themes not themes. It is what it's what this is all about. This this rosary podcast. It's raining together. The mission, the community, our friendship, the desire to create friendship between others. Yeah. All of it, which is it's funny because you might immediately

“think, oh another movie that's talking about bravery and friendship. That's what half of the”

movies major themes are if you try to break it down. But it's beautiful how different things show them in very different lights and can highlight different elements or even just do it better than I've seen it ever done. Same with the book. So I read the book. You went to the movie. I haven't seen the movie yet. You haven't read the book yet. But it's all about friendship and courage. And what we're doing is not a podcast. It's not even just a rosary podcast. It's about friendship with

Jesus and friendship with others. And the book in the movie are not about friendship with Jesus, but it does get to the heart of friendship. At the end of the day, if you're genuinely breaking down, thinking about reflecting on humanity in a roundabout way without even knowing it, you're breaking down the image of God, reflecting on the image of God when it's rightly ordered. So movies like this are so good for us because they're almost scientifically breaking down and

getting wrapping all the way back around to virtue and to nearly religious themes. Even the movie can't fully stray from that and avoid it. It's even just good to be able to go to these kinds of movies with people or read these kinds of books with people and discuss it because there's so much shared information to break down. It really facilitates the conversation between people of different faces and backgrounds and ideas because you can boil it down to just its simplest forms.

So we're in a dangerous zone here because you and I desperately want to talk about parts of the the movie and the book. And we can't because you guys haven't seen it yet. We're assuming. So you got to read the book. There's a great audio book. I don't get any royalties from pushing this, but there's a great audio book. The book is fantastic.

The movie's amazing. So you've, in fact, the Rosary podcast has never had sponsorship in a

“paid ad format. True. That's what probably one of the few podcasts that's gone on this long”

and we don't have a affiliate link. We've never had a single Nike sponsorship. Can you believe that? They might not know it. Maybe we're currently wearing all out Nike. They don't know. We're not. I'll tell you what. No, we're wearing hockey gear. So you're actually wearing Medjugory. I'm actually wearing Medjugory gear. That's true. I'm wearing Medjugory gear.

can, so that we can talk about it together because that's what friends do. Well, thanks for the conversation, Trisa. Thank you. Let's be apostles of friendship, good conversation, and the Rosary. Share this with others.
