(A Daily Reflection on Divine Mercy)
All of creation is capable of reflecting the glory and
workings of God. God is the wisdom
behind the Universe, setting all its laws in order and guiding all things
perfectly. We only need to spend time
meditating upon the laws of nature to perceive the laws of grace which they
reflect. For example, take the morning
dew. It arrives silently and without
notice of its coming. It sinks in and
soaks the earth leaving all things covered by its presence. So it is with the countless graces of God’s
Mercy. It’s as if every grace God gives
us is like one drop of the morning dew.
He bestows it in abundance, and we often do not see it coming. It is given to soak in and to nourish our
souls. Let the message of the morning
dew speak to you this day and allow it to reveal the outpouring of the Mercy of
God (See Diary #1449).
Do you ever spend time reflecting upon creation? There are so many lessons to learn about God
through that which He created. Ponder
the morning dew this day. Spend time on
it and seek the countless messages that God can reveal through it. Consider, also, the many other messages that
reveal the wisdom and Mercy of God within creation. We can grow in our faith and knowledge of God
by pondering the birds, the grass, the fish, or any other creature God made. Reflect upon creation this day and you will
find that you are reflecting upon the Mercy of God.
Lord, I thank You for the
gift of creation and the countless ways that You speak through that which You
created. May my life be like the soil
that soaks in the morning dew each day, being covered with Your grace. I love You, dear Lord. Help me to be more open to Your love each new
day, and to see Your hand at work in all things You have Made. Jesus, I trust in You.
