When I hear the word “magnify,” two things come to mind. One is a magnifying glass. The second thing that comes to mind is Mary’s Magnificat. So let’s look into both today. 

So here we have talked about all the different ways we can see his Mercy and receive it. We have gone through how we can get mercy to be so abundant. But one thing that we haven’t gone over is... his mercy should be rejoiced in. Well, why wouldn’t it be?!

Back in my college days, I had a friend who I thought was the best friend I could ever ask for. But a while after I finished college, things started to change. They were calling me a lot, started saying things that didn’t make a lot of sense, and wanted to isolate me from my family, my friends, and things that I loved.

If there’s one word that summarizes St. Faustina, it’s “trust.” Keep in mind that private revelations are mostly a “take it or leave it” case and that not many saints receive visions. Many of Faustina’s sisters doubted her visions or belittled her as not being worthy of having them

I had a conversation with my co-workers on how some Christians and entire societies lived in a constant state of fear. For some reason or another, some people believed that the world was a horrible place and that all that mattered was stuff relating to the mind or soul. But this idea is completely and emphatically wrong. A certain level of fear is healthy. We need to be cautious and to always fear the Lord. But to fear God doesn’t mean constantly double-checking your every move.

Can you imagine loving someone so unceasingly, and they aren't always 100% in it for you? We are the partner in this relationship that is not necessarily always 100%. You know, our hearts may say that we are 100% in it for the Lord, but the reality is, not everything else is.
