Divine Mercy Quotes

“Act in such a way that all those who come in contact with you will go away joyful. Sow happiness about you because you have received much from God; give, then, generously to others. They should take leave of you with their hearts filled with joy, even if they have no more than touched the hem of your garment.”
― Maria Faustina Kowalska

“The Prodigal Son at least walked home on his own feet. But who can duly adore that Love which will open the high gates to a prodigal who is brought in kicking, struggling, resentful, and darting his eyes in every direction for a chance of escape? The words...'compel them to come in,' have been so abused by wicked men that we shudder at them; but properly understood, they plumb the depth of the Divine mercy. The hardness of God is kinder than the softness of men, and His compulsion is our liberation.”
― C.S. Lewis, Surprised by Joy: The Shape of My Early Life

“Reverence begins here, in humility. It begins when we remember that even our breath is borrowed, that each dawn is gifted, that our entire being is held in divine mercy. To live with reverence is to see traces of the Creator in everything.”
― Ajmal, from the book "Borders of the Inner World"
