Gracious and Merciful

"The LORD is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in mercy. The LORD is good to all, compassionate toward all your works. All your works give you thanks, LORD and your faithful bless you. They speak of the glory of your reign and tell of your mighty works..." ~Psalm 145


Today I had the privilege of going on pilgrimage to the National Shrine of the Divine Mercy. Breathtakingly beautiful doesn't even begin to describe this experience. The mercy of the Lord is so incredible, in all seasons of life, but especially when we are suffering.


His mercy abounds in times when we are weak. His love is our strength. He is our peace and our home.


I'm praying for you and for all of your intentions ❤️ Know that you are infinitely loved by the God of Heaven and Earth. There is nothing- big or small- that you could ever do that would change His love for or willingness to forgive you. Jesus wants you to let Him love you. And He's such a gentleman- He'll never force His love. But please know that no matter what, He will be waiting for you to come home to Him. ❤️



Here are some pictures I took during the day! There are more on Instagram and Facebook if you'd like to check them out.
