My fiends on this Divine Mercy Sunday, when did you experience Jesus’ Mercy in your own life and how does that Mercy impact on you and all you do as you reflect on the points below?
The personal question/action for today:
• How is my faith relationship with God on this Second Sunday of Easter?
• How has my faith been tested by trials?
• How have I experienced the gift of faith by others’ sharing their faith with me?
• In what ways have I built up the community of faith by my sharing my faith with others and celebrating with them the presence of the Risen Lord Jesus?
• What further steps can I take to live out my call to be an ambassador of Peace to others today? This week?
