On this Feast of St. Faustina, Fr. Chris Alar offers a powerful reflection on the saint chosen by Christ to prepare the world for His final coming. In this complete summary, he reminds us that Divine Mercy is not just another devotion—it is the very heart of the Gospel, the nucleus of our faith, and mankind’s last hope of salvation.

Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, takes us deep into the heart of the Church’s great mystery — the inseparable link between the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the message of Divine Mercy. Long before St. Faustina received the vision of Christ’s mercy, St. Margaret Mary Alacoque revealed the burning love of His Heart. Both messages — separated by centuries — form one divine revelation of the same truth: God is Love, and His love takes action through mercy.

Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, asks the question that every soul must face: Will I be saved? In a world where nearly every funeral assumes heaven, the Scriptures — and the saints — give us a sobering reminder: “Narrow is the road that leads to life, and few find it.” (Mt 7:14)
