EBB AND FLOW
EBB AND FLOW of GOD'S MERCY
The ebb of God’s mercy flows at His will and in His time. Pope Francis no doubt inspired by God declared this year the Jubilee Year of Mercy. This grace given to us Catholics who have the fullness of faith will see the fulfillment of His mercy on the many prayers we pray. The prayers for loved ones from children, grandchildren to immediate and extended members of our family’s and all whom we love will be answered through His mercy. His grace of mercy in all its awesomeness will reign down readily within the Jubilee Year of Mercy. The Ebb and Flow of God’s Mercy will gently wash over the souls in conflict, sin, bondages and set them free. This special time of His merciful grace should not be taken lightly it is time to move in this ebb and flow for the answer to our prayers are at hand.
This Ebb and Flow of God’s Mercy is given to the whole world for us to call on in the turmoil of the suffering and atrocities our lives are thrust into directly or indirectly. We whom have the fullness of faith must come to the conclusion within our own relationship with God all given to us is not to be horded only unto ourselves. Jesus shed His blood and was crucified so all can have eternal life; the salvation for all souls. We cannot expect the lost who have no true knowledge of faith and redemption to understand or know the destruction of their souls or the end result the eternal fires of hell. When the evil nature of satan is to destroy all souls for himself it is in the truthiness of our faith to see that does not happen for we move in concert to the cross of Christ and all that entails. We are to pick up the cross and follow Him. We are the continuation of the mandate of His crucifixion to set the captives free. We must in love of our enemies God’s words to us and let the final judgement be His where a soul will go our calling is to love, pray, suffer, sacrifice, and serve.
There are many lost souls in this modern world who have yet to be evangelized and some that without a very special grace from God would dare walk among however, this does not mean our calling ends here and our hatred spew judgement, fear and is merciless. Souls a breath away from the gates of hell where waiting is the devouring dragon of evil to lustily take them to the fires of damnation must be stopped. This is where we travail in love, prayer, suffering, sacrifice in service for these lost souls to the font of mercy Jesus Christ. Everything we say about these souls their cruelty and savageness the bottom line is that they are lost and are on the path to eternal suffering if not for the intervention of the faithful.
Our prayer must be a one of God’s mercy to beg on their behalf for Our Lord to pierce their hearts to conversion with the same lance that was thrusted into His side when he was on the cross. That the blood and water that came from His side of mercy wash over them.
Lastly, we should also pray for those who die unprepared and lost that our Lord especially in the Ebb and Flow of His Mercy to open His window of mercy for one last chance before their last breath to cry out in true conviction for His Mercy. It is here they receive the Sacrament of Baptism the breath of the Holy Spirit and they steal heaven as Mother Angelica would say. The rejoicing in heaven will be felt in our hearts for we were a part of the cross of salvation as we moved in the Ebb and Flow of God’s Mercy.
