March 18, 2001“Dear children! Today I call you to love and mercy. Give love to each other as your Father gives it to you. Be merciful (pause) – with the heart… Do good works, not permitting them to wait for you too long. Every mercy that comes from the heart brings you closer to my Son.”

Resolution:

To have a merciful heart.

Mary calls us her apostles of light, sent to spread love and mercy throughout the world. She says: “Your life is only a moment before eternal life. And when you come to My Son, He will see in your hearts how much love you have had.” She reminds us: “I need you to be open and sensitive to goodness and mercy. Apostles of My love, have an open heart, always ready for love and mercy. In this way, you can help all those who do not realize they are choosing darkness over light.”

Prayer:
Mary, help us to be like Jesus in mercy—He who did good wherever He went. He was merciful, kind, gentle, patient, comforting, and generous to the poor.

Come, Holy Spirit, fill us with mercy and deepen our sensitivity to the needs of our neighbors.

Come, Holy Spirit, come by means of the powerful intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, your well-beloved spouse! (3x)

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
