About Me

Hi everyone, All I do is love and take care of my family. I pray for divine Mercy for myself, family, enemies and for the world. I believe in prayer and find strength in obedience and faith. Only through suffering you will find waiting the test of your own faith. Trust in prayer, remember kiddos, Pure love is capable of great deeds, and it is not broken by difficult or great adversity. As it remains strong in the midst of great difficulties, so too it perseveres in the toilsome and drab life of each day. I believe in the words of Saint Faustina when she says it (love) knows that only one thing is need to please God: to do even the smallest things out of great love - love, and always love...
