Oblate Annual Gala
Divine Mercy Sunday Reflection by Fr. James Doran, OMV
St. John says; “God is love” and Jesus says: “ I Am Mercy”.
Jesus is the Incarnation of Mercy. Mercy is Love’s second
name, writes Pope St. John Paul!
What is mercy? Love that seeks to
alleviate suffering. That’s a good
definition if you just think about it.
Divine Mercy, in the person of Jesus,
gives us two commandments: First,
contemplate Mercy. Look at the
image and reflect how God has been
merciful to humanity in general.
How has He sought to alleviate
suffering in your life, in your
personal history.
Second, Jesus commands us to be
merciful. Practice works of mercy
daily. If you keep that in mind, you
will find plenty of opportunities.
