It seems not. "134 Thus, in all the ways of the Church's life and ministry-through the evangelical poverty of her-ministers and stewards and of the whole people which bears witness to "the mighty works" of its Lord-the God who is "rich in mercy" has been made still more clearly manifest. This is why moral uneasiness is destined to become even more acute.

Death has justice done to it at the price of the death of the one who was without sin and who alone was able-by means of his own death-to inflict death upon death.83 In this way the cross of Christ, on which the Son, consubstantial with the Father, renders full justice to God, is also a radical revelation of mercy, or rather of the love that goes against what constitutes the very root of evil in the history of man: against sin and death. É tradição que a novena seja rezada, principalmente, antes da Festa da Misericórdia, iniciando na Sexta-feira da Paixão. This is due not so much to the terminology, as in the Old Testament books, as to the analogy that enables us to understand more fully the very mystery of mercy, as a profound drama played out between the father's love and the prodigality and sin of the son. These opinions see mercy as a unilateral act or process, presupposing and maintaining a certain distance between the one practicing mercy and the one benefitting from it, between the one who does good and the one who receives it. A little later, as she recalls the election of Israel, she proclaims the mercy which He who has chosen her holds "in remembrance" from all time.60 Afterwards, in the same house, when John the Baptist is born, his father Zechariah blesses the God of Israel and glorifies Him for performing the mercy promised to our fathers and for remembering His holy covenant.61. LA FESTA DELLA DIVINA MISERICORDIA: L'anima che la prima domenica dopo Pasqua si confesserà e riceverà degnamente la santa comunione, dopo aver fatto per 9 giorni a partire dal Venerdì Santo una novena usando la Coroncina alla Divina Misericordia, riceverà la grande grazia della remissione totale di tutte le pene e dei castighi. The cross is the most profound condescension of God to man and to what man-especially in difficult and painful moments-looks on as his unhappy destiny. It has been precisely historical experience that, among other things, has led to the formulation of the saying: summum ius, summa iniuria. Jesucristo de la Divina Misericordia, esta oración puede rezarse dentro de la novena o bien puede rezarse sola. John 14:9), It is "God, who is rich in mercy" 1 whom Jesus Christ has revealed to us as Father: it is His very Son who, in Himself, has manifested Him and made Him known to us.2 Memorable in this regard is the moment when Philip, one of the twelve Apostles, turned to Christ and said: "Lord, show us the Father, and we shall be satisfied"; and Jesus replied: "Have I been with you so long, and yet you do not know me...? Today I wish to say that openness to Christ, who as the Redeemer of the world fully reveals man himself," can only be achieved through an ever more mature reference to the Father and His love. In the span of the fifteen years since the end of the Second Vatican Council, has this picture of tensions and threats that mark our epoch become less disquieting? This kind of abuse of the idea of justice and the practical distortion of it show how far human action can deviate from justice itself, even when it is being undertaken in the name of justice. Those who come to know God in this way, who "see" Him in this way, can live only in a state of being continually converted to Him. It is precisely then that the words pronounced in the Upper Room are completely fulfilled: "He who has seen me has seen the Father. The messianic message of Christ and His activity among people end with the cross and resurrection.

This is, therefore, love of God, the insulting rejection of whom by modern man we feel profoundly, and we are ready to cry out with Christ on the cross: "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. Precisely this is the fundamental right and duty of the Church in Christ Jesus, her right and duty towards God and towards humanity. Suor Faustina Kowalska, proclamata santa da Giovanni Paolo II il 30 aprile del 2000, fu una suora appartenente alla Congregazione delle Suore della Beata Vergine Maria della Misericordia che ebbe un’intensa vita mistica.

Que el imagen de tu Divina Misericordia proteja mi hogar, mi familia, de todos los poderes malos de hoy en el mundo. In fact, being assumed into heaven she has not laid aside this office of salvation but by her manifold intercession she continues to obtain for us the graces of eternal salvation. For this reason it is now fitting to reflect on this mystery. If this bilateral and reciprocal quality is absent, our actions are not yet true acts of mercy, nor has there yet been fully completed in us that conversion to which Christ has shown us the way by His words and example, even to the cross, nor are we yet sharing fully in the magnificent source of merciful love that has been revealed to us by Him. The father's fidelity to himself is totally concentrated upon the humanity of the lost son, upon his dignity. L'anima che esalta la bontà del Suo Signore, viene da Lui particolarmente amata, è sempre accanto alla sorgente viva, e attinge la grazia dalla Divina Misericordia. Precisely for this reason the divine justice revealed in the cross of Christ is "to God's measure," because it springs from love and is accomplished in love, producing fruits of salvation. The Church must bear witness to the mercy of God revealed in Christ, in the whole of His mission as Messiah, professing it in the first place as a salvific truth of faith and as necessary for a life in harmony with faith, and then seeking to introduce it and to make it incarnate in the lives both of her faithful and as far as possible in the lives of all people of good will. ", When one speaks of preaching, one encounters a problem of major importance with reference to the meaning of terms and the content of concepts, especially the content of the concept of "mercy" (in relationship to the concept of "love"). %PDF-1.5 Not only for the Church herself as the community of believers but also in a certain sense for all humanity, this mystery is the source of a life different from the life which can be built by man, who is exposed to the oppressive forces of the threefold concupiscence active within him.128 It is precisely in the name of this mystery that Christ teaches us to forgive always. Finally, there is the "desacralization" that often turns into "dehumanization": the individual and the society for whom nothing is "sacred" suffer moral decay, in spite of appearances. Padre nuestro, que estás en el This requirement forms part of the very essence of the messianic message, and constitutes the heart of the Gospel ethos. . Moreover, one cannot fail to be worried by the decline of many fundamental values, which constitute an unquestionable good not only for Christian morality but simply for human morality, for moral culture: these values include respect for human life from the moment of conception, respect for marriage in its indissoluble unity, and respect for the stability of the family. "56 "For the mountains may depart...my steadfast love shall not depart from you, and my covenant of peace shall not be removed. Se non hai Adobe Acrobat Reader ®, scarica qui la versione gratuita. At the root of this many-sided conviction, which is both communal and personal, and which is demonstrated by the whole of the Old Testament down the centuries, is the basic experience of the chosen people at the Exodus: the Lord saw the affliction of His people reduced to slavery, heard their cry, knew their sufferings and decided to deliver them.43 In this act of salvation by the Lord, the prophet perceived his love and compassion.44 This is precisely the grounds upon which the people and each of its members based their certainty of the mercy of God, which can be invoked whenever tragedy strikes. "30, In this way, the messianic message about mercy preserves a particular divine-human dimension. Indeed, it has been, in a way, found again. But the threat does not merely concern what human beings can do to human beings through the means provided by military technology; it also concerns many other dangers produced by a materialistic society which-in spite of "humanistic" declarations-accepts the primacy of things over persons. Moral permissiveness strikes especially at this most sensitive sphere of life and society. In this regard, the books of the Old Testament give us very many examples. "119, 14. The people of the Old Covenant experienced this misery from the time of the Exodus, when they set up the golden calf. Even those who are closest to Him cannot protect Him and snatch Him from the hands of His oppressors. And this is also one of the basic principles, perhaps the most important one, of the teaching of the last Council. While it is true that every individual human being is, as I said in my encyclical Redemptor hominis, the way for the Church, at the same time the Gospel and the whole of Tradition constantly show us that we must travel this day with every individual just as Christ traced it out by revealing in Himself the Father and His love.7 In Jesus Christ, every path to man, as it has been assigned once and for all to the Church in the changing context of the times, is simultaneously an approach to the Father and His love. Of great significance in this area is constant meditation on the Word of God, and above all conscious and mature participation in the Eucharist and in the sacrament of Penance or Reconciliation. "113 The Church professes the mercy of God, the Church lives by it in her wide experience of faith and also in her teaching, constantly contemplating Christ, concentrating on Him, on His life and on His Gospel, on His cross and resurrection, on His whole mystery. It would of course be difficult to give a list or summary of them all, since most of them are vividly inscribed in the depths of people's hearts and minds. Misericordiosísimo Jesús, que exclamaste ¡misericordia!, misericordia las almas del purgatorio, almas que tanto aprecias pero que, no obstante, han de pagar su culpa. endobj The Church rightly considers it her duty and the purpose of her mission to guard the authenticity of forgiveness, both in life and behavior and in educational and pastoral work.

The prodigal son is aware of this and it is precisely this awareness that shows him clearly the dignity which he has lost and which makes him honestly evaluate the position that he could still expect in his father's house. When we base ourselves on this disquieting model, we are able with all humility to show mercy to others, knowing that Christ accepts it as if it were shown to Himself.121 On the basis of this model, we must also continually purify all our actions and all our intentions in which mercy is understood and practiced in a unilateral way, as a good done to others. This fact is universally known. How often we repeat the words of the prayer which He Himself taught us, asking "forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us," which means those who are guilty of something in our regard129 It is indeed difficult to express the profound value of the attitude which these words describe and inculcate.
