Seeking Divine Mercy DAUGHTER OF THE KING - April 7, 2013 ... occurrence)There in that quiet chapel, alone with my Lord, I did not have to seek anywhere for Divine Mercy; He was right in front of me. So while the communal devotion may have been a little spiritually lackluster, my hour with Him was not.

What I also realized is that I don't have to search far and wide for Jesus ...http://hisdaughter02.blogspot.com/2013/04/seeking-divine-mercy.html
