Divine
Mercy Picture
The
focus of this picture is Jesus, the Divine Mercy. His right hand
is raised in blessing, while His left hand points to His Heart
from where two rays come forth. The rays represent the blood and
water that flowed from Christ's side when His Heart was was pierced
with the lance. The red ray stands for the Blood which is the
life of souls and the pale ray stands for the Water which makes
souls righteous.
Jesus appeared to Saint Faustina in this manner and instructed
her to have a painting created as she saw Him. He also told Saint
Faustina that under the picture was to appear the words: "Jesus,
I Trust in You". He told her that this was because of the
lack of trust man has in Him. He told her, "How painfully
distrust of My Goodness wounds Me!"
The
original painting of Divine Mercy was a disappointment to Saint
Faustina, but Jesus told her: "Not in the beauty of the colour,
nor of the brush lies the greatness of this image, but in My Grace."
He also told her: "My Gaze from this image is like My Gaze
from the Cross."
