Trust In God's Mercy

O God, show me Your mercy
According to the compassion
of the Heart of Jesus.
Hear my sighs and entreaties,
And the tears of a contrite heart.
O Omnipotent, ever-merciful God.
Your compassion is never exhausted.
Although my misery is as vast as the sea,
I have complete trust in Your mercy,
O Lord,
O eternal Trinity, yet ever-gracious God,
Your compassion is without measure,
and so I trust in the sea of Your mercy,
and feel Your presence, Lord,
though a veil separates me from You.
May the omnipotence of Your mercy,
O Lord,
Be glorified all over the world.
May veneration of it never cease.
Proclaim, my soul, God's mercy with zeal!

(Diary of Saint Maria Faustina, 1298)

Your way is The Way, for whatever reason, it is the best. Unless, we will it otherwise, thus, you respect. But the moment our prayer is sent to You, You take charge.  That night, when my sister w
