| God's Mercy |
| |
|
God never disowns us, we are his people; the most evil of men, the most evil of women, the most evil of peoples are his children. And God is like this: he never, never, disowns us! He always says: “Son, come.” And this is our Father’s love; this is God’s mercy.

|
Jesus Christ is the face of the Father’s mercy. These words might well sum up the mystery of the Christian faith. Mercy has become living and visible in Jesus of Nazareth, reaching its culmination in him.

Mercy is the word that summarizes the Gospel; we might say that it is the 'face' of Christ, that face that he showed when he went towards everyone, when he healed the sick, when he shared a table with the sinners, and especially when, nailed to the cross, he forgave. There we find the face of divine mercy.

Mercy: the word reveals the very mystery of the Most Holy Trinity.
Mercy: the ultimate and supreme act by which God comes to meet us.
Mercy: the fundamental law that dwells in the heart of every person who looks sincerely into the eyes of his brothers and sisters on the path of life.
Mercy: the bridge that connects God and man, opening our hearts to a hope of being loved forever despite our sinfulness.

Notwithstanding the difficulties and the sufferings of life, the hope of salvation which Christ has sown in our hearts nonetheless, continues to grow. The mercy of God is poured out upon us, making us just, and giving us peace.

God alone, he alone can save us. Only God’s mercy can free humanity from the many forms of evil, at times monstrous evil, which selfishness spawns in our midst.
