Mercy, Mercy, Mercy!

12 Sunday Jun 2022

Posted by thetimman in the real, unto sanctification

The angels standing before the throne of God veil their faces and, filled with wonder and admiration at the sight of God’s infinite holiness, cry aloud without ceasing “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord.” For us poor sinners here below, our faith should produce the same effect, but differently. Gazing in spirit on this infinite sanctity, we should cry from the bottom of our hearts “Mercy, mercy, mercy!” This is our Sanctus, and the Church adopts this in her daily cry, Kyrie eleison, Christe eleison, Kyrie eleison. I found this thought of honoring God’s sanctity, by united with the angels as they cry Sanctus, in crying for mercy, very fruitful. As their cry is eternal, so should my cry for mercy never cease in this life.

This site is dedicated to our Blessed Mother, and I ask for her maternal help and protection.
Ego mater pulchrae dilectionis, et timoris, et agnitionis, et sanctae spei. In me gratia omnis viae et veritatis: in me omnis spes vitae et virtutis.

“YOU ARE THE ONES WHO ARE HAPPY; YOU WHO REMAIN WITHIN THE CHURCH BY YOUR FAITH, WHO HOLD FIRMLY TO THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE FAITH WHICH HAS COME DOWN TO YOU FROM APOSTOLIC TRADITION. AND IF AN EXECRABLE JEALOUSY HAS TRIED TO SHAKE IT ON A NUMBER OF OCCASIONS, IT HAS NOT SUCCEEDED. THEY ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE BROKEN AWAY FROM IT IN THE PRESENT CRISIS. NO ONE, EVER, WILL PREVAIL AGAINST YOUR FAITH, BELOVED BROTHERS. AND WE BELIEVE THAT GOD WILL GIVE US OUR CHURCHES BACK SOME DAY.”
