Today, being divine mercy Sunday I am overwhelmed with God's infinite mercy and love. I was thinking about how we forgive others today...is it heartfelt? Do we let it go once we forgive or are we holding onto the pain? I was thinking about this and one of my favorite authors came to mind, Immaculée Ilibagiza. Immaculée shares her miraculous story of how she survived during the Rwanda genocide in 1994 when she and seven other women huddled silently together in the cramped bathroom of a local pastor’s house for 91 days! In this captivating and inspiring book, Immaculée shows us how to embrace the power of prayer, forge a profound and lasting relationship with God, and discover the importance of forgiveness and the meaning of truly unconditional love and understanding—through our darkest hours. I am reminded of how we are all capable, even thru the most horrific circumstances, to offer our forgiveness to others. And it is Jesus' immaculate heart that teaches us this!
