The indulgences in the Sanctuary of Divine Mercy in Płock gathered many pilgrims. The Eucharist was presided over by Bishop Adam Bab from Lublin, who at the beginning of the homily paid attention to the uniqueness of the place.
– It is simply a large grace to experience this vacation right here, where St.Faustine experienced the presence of Jesus and gave the planet a message about His mercy," he said.
He recalled that thanks to p. Faustina, the image of Jesus the Beneficent became a designation mark throughout the world. But the central motive of the homily was the wounds of Christ, present in both the Gospel of St. Thomas and in the image of Jesus the Merciful. Jesus wants to be recognized after the wounds. Not on the face, not on the external signs, but on them," Fr.
As he explained, these wounds confirm that the resurrected Jesus is the same 1 who was crucified. But their meaning goes much deeper.
– They're not just signs of suffering. These are signs of love that went through death and remained. "In His wounds is our health," he recalled.
The bishop pointed out that through these wounds man can find hope, even after experiencing sin and weakness.
In the homily there was besides the thought that mercy is not an occasional thing, but something that sustains human life. – It is not an addition to the life of faith, but its foundation. Like an IV we live through, we should draw from it all day," said Fr.
