Excerpt from the Diary of St. Faustina:
Tell the whole world about My inconceivable mercy. … On [the Feast of Mercy] the very depths of My tender mercy are open. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the Fount of My Mercy. The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. … Let no soul fear to draw near to Me, even though its sins be as scarlet. My mercy is so great that no mind, be it of man or angel, will be able to fathom it throughout all eternity. Everything that exists has come forth from the very depths of My most tender mercy. … The Feast of Mercy emerged from My very depths of tenderness. It is My desire that it be solemnly celebrated on the firstSunday after Easter. Mankind will not have peace until it turns to the Fount of My Mercy (Diary – 699).
Meditation:
May You always be praised for Your greatest attribute: Your mercy. May all souls come to realize and glorify Your mercy, and may I glorify Your mercy all the days of my life, the days of joy and the days of sorrow, and throughout all eternity.
