In praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet, I have come to an astonishing realization: just as a mother’s love, patience, and compassion toward her child is positively boundless, so are the Mercies of God. In spite of our own wickedness and sin, he is there, ready and willing to dispense Grace and mercy toward those who will only come to Him and ask; for we are His Children, made righteous by the Mercy and the Grace of Jesus Christ. We abort babies, partake in same-sex intercourse, blaspheme the very name of God; yet he is still there, being Love, being God; so that all who Ask for his mercy, Seek His face, come to Him and Knock on His door --all those who he has called as his children-- may partake in the goodness and mercy of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. What of the heathens though? What does God have for them? “Come to Me, all those who labor and are heavy burdened, and I will give you rest.”
 
My Jesus I love you, you are my Lord and Saviour. You are the King of Kings, and the Lord of Lords. Thank You for being so kind and merciful.
 
And you know the weird thing? When I have these “mystical” experiences with Jesus; I don’t necessarily feel like I’m being led to the Catholic Church, or any other church for that matter, but directly to Jesus Christ… It feels positively pure and untainted… I don’t know what to make of that 🤷
 
The point of the church is to point to Jesus, not replace him. You notice you had this experience while praying a Divine Mercy Chaplet. That’s what the faith is supposed to do. Draw you closer to Jesus. Each part of the Catholic faith points directly to him. Whether it be something as simple as the sign of the cross, or the source and summit of our faith, the Eucharist itself… all of it is to draw closer to Jesus.

For me, the realization that the Catholic church as pulling me closer to Jesus brought me closer to the church, because I wanted to get even closer to Jesus. How better to do so than to follow the methods that he himself laid out in the Holy Scriptures?
