For all the devotion and uplifting posts and especially for the Chaplet of Divine Mercy thread. I read through the threads along with this one and have been really encouraged (in my faith).
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Behold the handmaid of the Lord: Be it done unto me according to Thy word.

“The heart of Christ is divine and human,” the Holy Father said. “In Christ, God and Man are perfectly one, without separation and without confusion. He is the image, in fact, the incarnation of God who is love, mercy, paternal and maternal tenderness; of God, who is Life.”
The Holy Father added that just as Jesus asked Martha if she believes that he is the “resurrection and the life,” Jesus addresses to each of us this same question that in fact exceeds our ability to understand.
Jesus asks us to trust him, as he has been entrusted to the Father. And, the Holy Father said, despite our doubts and our darkness, we are invited to follow Martha’s example and say to Jesus, “We believe in you, because you have the words of eternal life. We believe in you, we hope in the gift of life after life, an authentic and full life in your kingdom of light and peace.”
