God Is Doing Something New

Click for More

In today’s Gospel, we see the profound blessing of hearing and observing the Word of God—and no one exemplifies this more perfectly than our Blessed Mother Mary. She devoured the Scriptures, rejoiced in the Word made flesh, and prepared the way for Christ. As John the Baptist said, “He must increase; I must decrease.”

Our world today is filled with confusion and moral collapse, yet we can trust in the Gospel and the traditions of the Church. Prophets like Joel, and apparitions of Our Lady—La Salette, Lourdes, Fatima, Akita—call us to repentance, but also offer hope. Joel speaks of the harvest, and Our Lady promises triumph and peace through her Immaculate Heart.

We are living at the close of an age, a time for the faithful to witness God doing something new. Just as new wine requires fresh wineskins, God is bringing a renewal in the Spirit. The harvest is ripe, and the reapers are angels sent by God. We can rejoice in this promise, trusting in the triumph of Our Lady and the blessings awaiting the faithful.

Explore the depth of this triumph in our video series Days of Elijah and the Coming Triumph, available on DivineMercyPlus.org. God is doing something new—let us be hopeful and prepared.

The War the World Refuses to Name

As headlines stir anxiety about the possibility of global conflict, Fr. Matthew Tomeny, MIC, turns our attention to a war already raging — one that has claimed more innocent lives than any battlefield in history. While nations prepare for external enemies, the Church is called to confront a deeper crisis: the systematic destruction of human life in the womb.

Living a Purpose-Filled Advent

Fr. Mark reminds us that Advent is not Christmas—it is a penitential season meant to awaken our souls, sharpen our spiritual vision, and prepare us to stand before the Lord. Across the 24 Churches that make up the Catholic Church, Advent (or its equivalent) is lived with deep seriousness: 40-day fasts, vegan disciplines, weeks of total abstinence, and long seasons of preparation. Their witness challenges us in the Roman Rite to rediscover what this season truly is: a call to repentance, renewal, and readiness.

Embracing God’s Mercy

Fr. Anthony teaches about the importance of receiving God’s mercy through repentance and renouncing any spiritual obstacles, reminding us that God’s grace is always available if we open our hearts to it.
