"Arm yourself with prayer rather than a sword; wear humility rather than fine clothes." St. Dominic
Today's Meditation
“I desire that you know more profoundly the love that burns in My Heart for souls, and you will understand this when you meditate upon My Passion. Call upon My mercy on behalf of sinners; I desire their salvation. When you say this prayer, with a contrite heart and with faith on behalf of some sinner, I will give him the grace of conversion. This is the prayer: ‘O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of Mercy for us, I trust in You.’ ”
—Jesus to St. Faustina Kowalska, 186-187
Daily Verse
"For it is written: 'As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bend before me, and every tongue shall give praise to God.' So [then] each of us shall give an account of himself [to God]." Romans 14:11-12
