    Mercy is the love we need the most and deserve the least.
    We all want to get what we deserve. We want justice, and God is Just. But there are times when we need something more than justice...there are times when we might deserve justice, but need mercy.

    Thank you to Ascension and Fr. Mike for providing these homilies and online Masses. One huge footnote to add to this story is that when Rudolf Höss was young he was discerning whether or not to enter the Seminary. A priest broke the sacred confessional seal and ratted him out to his father. This ghastly betrayal led to Höss's utter disdain for the cloth and so he entered the military and went on to become an infamous Nazi. This loose-lipped priest had been under no pressure to break the seal-now contrast that to Fr. Walter J. Ciszek, a priest who was under enormous pressure to rat out his fellow inmates in the gulag. Divine Mercy is an incredible message-perhaps our last great hope-but we must also remember what happens when priests break their solemn vows. Let us all pray for priests around the world.

    Fr. Mike, thank you for this powerful, incredibly moving homily. God has blessed you with so many profound gifts of sharing His message. I am so thankful for your continual yes, as I can imagine your life is incredible demanding. Last year I went through the Bible in a year with you and this year the Catechism. I pray for you daily that God will protect and sustain you as you bless so many lives with your ministry. I am one, that has been blessed over and over by the words you share and just who you are in Christ. My faith has been enriched and strengthened. God bless you always.

    I received a card from the Marian helpers 3 years ago (Prayer for our enemies). It begins with: God our Father, Your Son commanded us,”love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you”. (Mt 5:44)
    When we were finally able to go to confession a young priest told me to find a book from father Chisik called He leadith
    me, since I said I don’t want to hate anyone.
    I pray each morning the Marian prayer and it keeps me focused on Gods love and Jesus’ yes.
    Thank you father Mike for explaining even more of Gods mercy and my trust! Blessings to you this Easter season.
