DIVINE MERCY REFLECTION: Rejoicing In The Goodness Of Others

Source: https://mycatholic.life

When others do well, how do you react?  Most likely when a child does well it brings delight to your soul.  But what about others?  A sure sign of a merciful heart is the ability to sincerely find joy in the good that others do.  Too often jealousy and envy get in the way of this form of Mercy.  But when we delight in the goodness of another and rejoice when God is at work in someone’s life, this is a sign that we have a merciful heart (See Diary #241).

Think about the person that you may find it difficult to offer praise and honor.  Who is it that is difficult to compliment and encourage?  Why is it this way?  We often point out their sin as the reason but the true reason is our own sin.  It may be anger, envy, jealousy or pride.  But the bottom line is that we must foster a spirit of joy in the good works of others.  Reflect upon at least one person you find it difficult to love in this way and pray for that person today.  Ask our Lord to give you a merciful heart so that you can rejoice as He works through others. 

"Lord, help me to see Your presence in others.  Help me to let go of all pride, jealousy and envy and to love with Your merciful Heart.  I thank You for working in many ways through the lives of others.  Help me to see You at work even in the greatest of sinners.  And as I discover Your presence, please fill me with a joy that expresses itself with authentic gratitude.  Jesus, I trust in You."
