Blood flowed profusely as Jesus was fastened to the wood that He had carried. Nails were driven completely through Him. It was even more acute because of His highly sensitive nature. The perfection of God's mercy to us here cannot be articulated or imagined.

Brothers and sisters in Christ. Mercy is something that we are called to. We have received it from the Lord but it is perfected in us by our own willingness to "pour ourselves out for others." Remember Mary Magdalene as she washed the feet of Jesus with her tears. The Lord said: "I tell you, her sins, many as they are will be forgiven her because she has loved much."

Our Father
Our Father, who art in heaven,hallowed be thy name.Thy kingdom come,Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven,Give us today our daily bread;and forgive us our trespasses aswe forgive those who trespass against us.Do not lead us to the test, but deliver us from all evil - Amen
