If we choose to be merciful to others, then God will be merciful with us. Weve arrived at the moment when we see how great, how heroic is Marys faith, the moment when we see how completely she abandons her self to God without reserve. Weve arrived at the moment when Elizabeths words of blessing, as John Paul puts it, seem to re-echo with supreme eloquence, and the power contained within them becomes something penetrating.23 And its prob ably becoming clear now as to why that blessing penetrates. 175 The last clause, and those of the Blessed Mother, is particularly appropriate for those who have consecrated themselves totally to Jesus through Mary.

Therese got to know Sr. Maries tormented soul more than anyone and once shared with her sister Pauline (Mother Agnes): If you knew her as well as I do, you would see that she is not responsible for all of the things that seem so awful to us. Why care about mercy if we dont feel were in need of it? Amen. Also, dont worry if your family is not perfect. Were just outside the walls of Jerusalem at Calvary, and Jesus is dying on the Cross.

Among other things, die book asserts that every Carmelite should offer herself as a victim soul to Gods justice, and several nuns from the Lisieux convent did just that.84 Alright, so what did that offering mean?

[Y]ou can see that I am a very little soul and that I can offer God only very little things (Ibid., p. 250). 33 Days to Merciful Love is the stirring sequel to the international sensation, 33 Days to Morning Glory. The Divine Mercy Image goes perfectly with the Family Offering to Merciful Love. Jesus doesn't just want good people he wants saints. And when we dont fully believe that God is good, then we dont fully trust in him and thats a problem. But heres something we didnt cover earlier, something that pushes us forward along the Littie Way as a way of life, something that also forms our conscience: The choice to see through the lens of mercy." He had something, he had intuited that this was a need in our time (Vatican translation). This is the out moment of breathing. The Member Pack and Coordinator Kit available with and without the main book 33 Days of Merciful Love Party Pack contains:-Retreat Companion (working book with daily and weekly questions, written by O. Michael Gately) - Dedication to the Merciful Love Certificate - Prayer consecration of the Merciful Love Prayer Card -St. Thats why St. Therese, who never left the convent, was declared Patron Saint of Missionaries and the Missions, along with St. Francis Xavier. The Catechism says its die revelation in Jesus WEEK TWO: The Little Way 53 Christ of Gods mercy to sinners.06 Now, in Therese's day, which was during the terrible time of Jansenism, this truly would have seemed like a totally new and joyful revelation. (Actually, I did put it myself because I just para phrased her thoughts, but you get the idea.) You should not fear purgatory 80 33 DAYS TO MERCIFUL LOVE because of the suffering there, but should instead ask that you not deserve to go there in order to please God, Who so reluctantly imposes this punishment.

For those on the Little Way, the success part isnt whats most important. A little earlier I believe it would have plunged me into a state of discouragement.161 Okay, but what, specifically, was this trial that the Lord sent to Therese?

May the blood and water that flows forth from your Heart always be upon us! Therese does, however, recognize that the practice of familiarity with Jesus isnt easy, acknowledging that we dont get to this in a single day (cited in Ahern, p. 167). This book, on the other hand, is about drinking from that fountain. Thats the name I gave to the people Id meet who would present Thereses teaching not as the Little Way for souls like me but as the big way for spiritual elites. Its about accepting diat we are to put up with ourselves with all the darkness of our weakness, brokenness, and sin widiout getting discouraged. After our fiat, after weve experienced the power of Gods Merciful Love, we, too, will want to give praise to God.

It helps us appreciate that, by consecrating ourselves to Divine Mercy were letting ourselves be carried into a greater work of the Spirit thats going on right now, in our day. Simply recall the case of Sr. Marie of the Trinity, one of St. Thereses novices who feared purgatory and wondered if someone as weak as she could hope to avoid it.

In other words, its all about loving Jesus with perfect love, the kind of love where we dont seek to console ourselves but, rather, seek to console him. After all, the very definition of compassion is to suffer with. But this kind of suffering is not so scary. Here, we see that Therese docs not want to rely on her own merits but, rather, on those of Jesus. Book Notes: 33 Days to Merciful Love. If this bilateral and reciprocal quality' is absent, our actions are not yet true acts of mercy, nor has there yet been fully completed in us that conversion to which Christ has shown us the way by His words and example, even to the Cross, nor are we yet sharing fully in the magnificent source of merciful love that has been revealed to us by Him (14).

In fact, you might say that, in a sense, its the most powerfill prayer there is. Anyway, Therese responds to Marie with her glorious Letter 197. Rather, its a self-offering to God (a setting of oneself apart for God) dtat anyone can make whether the person is a member of die clergy, consecrated religious, or laity and they do it for the specific purpose ofglorifying Gods mercy. So, this book truly is a consecration to Divine Mercy but in the style of St. Therese of Lisieux. Maximilian Kolbe, OFM Conv., cd. 2, s.c. and ad. The Letter to the Hebrews expresses it best: By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was ready to offer up his only-begotten son, of whom it was said, Through Isaac shall your descendants be named. He considered that God was able to raise men even from the dead (Heb 11:17-19). Second, I recommend the spiritual journal of St. Faustina, Divine Mercy in My Soul: Diary ofSaint Maria Faustina Kowalska. Bless us with your mercy when we leave our home and bless us again when we return. Make my heart like the tender Heart ofJesus, full of mercy and compassion.

But before I get into what her Offering is all about, I should first say something about what a Divine Mercy consecration is. Your great trust in Me forces Me to continuously grant you graces. But if all that isnt enough to convince us to choose to make the Offering to Merciful Love, then maybe this will: If we make and live the Offering, we need not fear purgatory. The book is called True Devotion to Mary by St. Louis de Montfort, and it describes a path to holiness called Marian consecration or a total consecration to Jesus through Mary. 16 33 DAYS TO MERCIFUL LOVE Most important for me, de Montfort basically claimed that such a consecration is the quickest and easiest way to become a saint. She knew that, compared to God, shed always be a weak, pitiful lover. How to Live in "One Single Act of Perfect Love" What does St. Therese mean when she says she wants to live in one single act of perfect love? Before her profession of religious vows, her wedding day, Therese made a retreat. No. Actually, a lot. 1 mean, here it seems as if nobody believes in God, and living by faith is hard. But now we know that Therese also suffered the temptation to wonder whether 110 33 DAYS TO MERCIFUL LOVE there even is a God and a heaven. It means trying to remember and keep before our eyes the infinite mercy of God who never tires of forgiving. I desire, in a word, to be a saint, but I feel my helplessness and I beg You, O my God! So what did I find? How do we do it? Infinite justice? since the happy day, it seems to me that Love penetrates and surrounds me, that at each moment this Merciful Love renews me, purifying my soul and leaving no trace of sin within it, and I need have no fear of purgatory. God promised Abram, who was now Abraham, that through that son, Isaac, he would establish an everlasting covenant with him and his descendants, blessing them with his saving presence and protection (see Gen 17:1-21). When Mary said, Let it be done to me, she was allowing the Incar nation of the Word to take place in her immaculate soul. 207-8. Now, notice that after exhaling (out), for a brief moment, before the next inhale (in), your lungs are empty: empty/in/out empty/in/out empty/in/out. In this way you will console My Heart. 17 Ibid. 50 See With Empty Hands, pp. Help me to participatefully, consciously, and actively in the borrowed divine love ofliturgical worship. I choose air that You will!49 Later, Therese would express her bold desires for holiness in an even more audacious way, saying that she wanted to love God even more than Teresa ofAvila, the great Carmelite Doctor of the Church!50 However, she also realized her weakness and littleness.

Michael Gaitley, MIC, this 33 Days to Merciful Love Retreat Companion goes even deeper than the book alone and explores new material on the heart of St. Thrse of Lisieux's Little Way, uncovering the power of trust in the face of personal darkness, inspiring participants to become great saints amid ordinary circumstances, and laying the .
