MEDITATION ON DIVINE MERCY IN THE DARK NIGHT OF UNKNOWING / by Joe Castorino

Inspired by the Saints

St. Francis de Sales:

Dearest Jesus,

King of Divine Mercy,

I place myself in your holy presence,

And I beseech you to inspire me

By the power of the Holy Spirit

For the glory of God the Father.

Vive Jésus!

St. Paul the Apostle:

Be filled with the Spirit,

Singing to the Lord,

And giving thanks always.

San Padre Pio:

Prega e spera:

Non agitarti.

L’agitazione

Non giova a nulla.

Iddio è misericordioso,

E ascolterà

La tua preghiera.

San Giovanni Paolo II:

Non abbiate paura.

Non abbiate paura!

St. John Paul II:

I love you! I love you!

I love you! I love you!

La Madonnina d’Amore:

Fate quello que vi dirà.

Our Lord of Love:

Approach this Sea of Mercy

With great trust.

St. Augustine:

Patience is the companion of wisdom.

Venerable Fulton J. Sheen:

When Our Blessed Lord came to this earth,

He had the divine sense of humor.

St. Francis of Assisi:

True joy is divine mercy in the dark night.

St. Louis de Montfort:

Tuus totus ego sum,

Et omnia mea tua sunt.

I am all yours, O my Jesus,

And all that I have is yours,

Through Santa Maria,

Your most holy mother.

The Mystical Rose:

Be courageous.

Do not fear apparent obstacles,

But fix your gaze on the Passion of my Son,

And in this way you will be victorious.

Jesus, The Divine Mercy:

Come to me, all you who are weary

And find life burdensome,

And I will refresh you.

Take my yoke upon your shoulders

And learn from me,

For I am gentle and humble of heart.

Your souls shall find rest,

For my yoke is easy,

And my burden light.

Amen.
