"Loving yourself allows you to connect to your own inner divinity and to know you will never again be alone". -- Gabriela Kortsch.

One of the most divine, solemn, and heavenly place I have ever been to. It was my third time to visit this place but there is no the same feeling every time I am here. I t always feels the first time. The solemnity of this place, the peacefulness it brings to the inner sense of me, is simply unexplainable. From the people who really are devotees of Divine Mercy, hearing a word from them, they all says closely the same thing that, "it is only when you pray faithfully, when you open thy heart, and receive God, that is when you will find total peace and feel His spirit". I honestly believe I felt His presence when I took the steps upward toward what the call the "Heart of Jesus". As you reach the top, you will find an altar where you can kneel down and pray. Given only a few seconds to pray, with only few words I prayed, it felt as if I have said everything that I wanted to say unto Him. Truly, God knows what your heart desires even before you speak. That was how I felt. Not everyone has experienced such feeling as I had. Thus, lucky are those who were able to find their inner peace. Yearly, I visit Divine Mercy and I have seen how this place has improved a lot. Hopefully, a lot of people will continue to patronize and help this place be preserved and enhanced even more.
