Spiritual Works of Mercy
Spiritual Works of Mercy
Performing works of mercy here on earth is essential to our eternal happiness but sometimes we make the excuses of not having the time, talent or resources to perform such works. But, Jesus told St. Faustina “for the many souls who are often worried because they do not have the material means with which to carry out and act of mercy. Yet spiritual mercy, which requires neither permissions nor storehouses, is much more meritorious and is within the grasp of of every soul.” In this episode, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, discusses the spiritual works of mercy and how we can best accomplish them.
