''Today I would like to solemnly entrust the world to Divine Mercy. I do this with the ardent desire that the message of God's merciful love proclaimed through Saint Faustina might reach all the earth's inhabitants and fill their hearts with hope''. John Paul II 17th August 2002 ''God is love he who abides in love abides in God and God in him'' (1 John 4 16). Given that God loved us first (1 John 4 10) now love is no longer only a ''commandment'' but it is the answer to the gift of love with which God meets us. In a world where God's name is occasionally associated with revenge or even the duty to hate and commit violent acts this is a very contemporary message and it has a very significant meaning... Those who go towards God do not distance themselves from men but rather they remain truly near them in the saints this becomes obvious''. Benedict XVI. Apart from presenting the content and the forms of the message and cult of Divine Mercy the particularity and uniqueness of this book is that it offers Saint Faustina's prayers to readers while at the same time giving us all the opportunity to turn towards the Lord with the same warmth intimacy and love with which she herself a heart that was in love with Jesus spoke to Him.
