Chaplet of Mercy

I am the little Pig that Follow Behind Jesus
I am an Instrument of God
Jesus Came to my house. I heard him, Clara saw him, our door bell rang, the Sacred Heart moved and the special giant Bryophyllum that grown mysteriously. These are all miracles of the Sacred Heart, Jesus, who wanted me to follow him.
How I follow him? My daily life, he is with me, the dreams I had, the things I hear and see in everyday’s life…
When I was young, my sister, friends and cousins always like to play with ’spirit plate’ or ’spirit money’ — those kind of game where we placed our middle finger on a plate or coin and chant the spirit to ‘come out’. Then we would ask the spirits many questions, and the spirits would use the ‘white plate/dish’ or coin to move to the words written on the paper.
The spirit game is very scary. One day, a rainy and stormy day, my sister and I was playing the game. It was a large piece of yellow paper with many words written in circular manner. The white dish is the instrument used. We asked many questions but the spirit refused to answer, but keep moving in circle, stopping at his/her own like. It states the chinese words “chop”,
“kill”, “spirit”, and so on. We were so scared, and we asked the spirit to go home. But the spirit refused to go home. We tried to push it home, using our force, but it had so much resistance. We just could not push it home. Luckily, just then, something happened at home. It was the cries of Eddy. His cries were so loud that the spirit was scared and it gone home finally. We heaved a sign of relief. That was perhaps the last time we played the game.
This was one out of another dangerous game we had….. there was one more….mention again another time…
Now back to this Leaflet about Sacred Heart, which Jesus had ‘turned to’:

Mercy of God Devotion
By Peace | July 5, 2008
This piece of Leaflet was what I had ‘picked’ and what I had found to have some ‘connection’ to my dream.
Since the body is dead, but the spirits still live, and the spirits need our help. The spirits appeared to people, and that is how the truth is passed on….
Mercy of God Devotion
Between 1930 and 1938 Christ, Our Lord, appeared to Sister Faustina, a Sister of Mercy in Poland.
On 22nd February 1931, as Sister Faustina relates the experience,”I saw Jesus dressed in a white garment. He held a hand raised in blessing and with the other, He was touching the garment at the breast. From under the garment came two rays of light, one red, the other pale.” As she knelt motionless, immersed in cross currents of joy and fear, Our Lord spoke,”Paint a picture according to the vision you see and with the inscription “Jesus I Trust In Thee”. I desire that this picture be venerated first in your chapel and then throughout the whole world. The rays on the picture represent the blood and water which gushed forth from the depths of My Mercy when My agonising Heart was opened on the Cross. The pale rays symbolize the water, which justifies the soul; the red rays represent the blood, which is the life of the soul. These rays shield the soul before the wrath of My Father. Fortunate is he who lives in their shelter for the just Hand of God will never reach Him.”
He then gave her a short prayer and told her to recite it often,”O Blood and Water, which has gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of Mercy for us, I trust in Thee.”
Our Lord asked Sister Faustina to pray and to promote the praying of a Chaplet of Mercy, using the Rosary beads for it. Our Lord, asked especially for a Novena, using the Chaplet, to start on Good Friday, the day of mercy, and to end on the first Sunday of Easter: a feast in honour of His Mercy. This novena could be said at other times.
He gave the intentions for the Novena:
1st day — sinners;
2nd day — souls of priests and nuns;
3rd day — faithful and pious;
4th day — pagans and others ignorant of Him
5th day — separated brethen;
6th day — the humble, meek and children
7th day — those who adore and honour His Mercy;
8th day — souls in Purgatory
9th day — the lukewarm and indifferent
Sister Faustina died on 5th October 1938.
From 1940-1959 the Mercy of God Devotion, based on her reported revelations, spread around the world. The Sacred Congregation of the Holy Office ordered it to cease in 1959. But on 15th April 1978, the Sacred Congregation lifted the prohibition — “being now in possession of many original documents, with vastly different circumstances, and on the petition of many of the Polish Bishops.”
The devotion has a powerful meaning for our times.
