Reflection: Jesus drew near Jerusalem and He wept over it...

Jesus is our hope, our refuge and our shield. He wants to give us His peace. When we turn away from Him, we lose our peace.

Our Lady of Fatima appeared to the shepherd children and told them to pray the rosary daily for peace.  Let us pray for peace in the world, in our families and in our hearts. Let us entrust our lives and our families to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

"As Jesus drew near Jerusalem, He saw the city and He wept over it, saying 'If this day, you only knew what makes for peace, but now it is hidden from your eyes. For the days are coming upon you, when your enemies will raise a palisade against you; they will encircle you and hem you in on all sides. They will smash you to the ground and your children within you and they will not leave one stone upon another within you because you did not recognize the time of your visitation.'" Luke 19:41-44

When we turn away by sinning, Jesus weeps...When we turn back to Him, heaven rejoices...

In the midst of the trials and tribulations of this world, Jesus is knocking at the door of your heart. Open the door and invite Him in.

Come to the Throne of Mercy where Jesus is waiting for you.  He longs for you. Through the Sacrament of Reconciliation, Jesus, forgives, heals and pours out sanctifying grace upon you. Turn to Him and you will know His peace.

Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My Mercy. Diary of Saint Faustina 300

This is the time of great Mercy. Come...
