Deepertruth: The Divine Mercy made personal, Jesus I Trust in You

The Divine Mercy made personal, Jesus I Trust in You.  While serving in the Army deployed to Iraq, it was a daily routine in a war zone to handle the dead and wounded. We had to be prepared at any moments notice 24/7. Sometimes it can happen multiple times a day with many casualties. A good day would be when we lost no one. Sometimes the only thing I can do for someone is pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet! There may not be anything we can do as the wounds were just too catastrophic. Sometimes, actually most of the time, there is no priest available on the battlefield nor in most of the frontline Aid Stations. When we recieved causalties, there are so many things happening at once, I might be involved with CPR trying to keep someone alive until the Doc calls it. I would silently pray: Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity, of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world I would be looking around ensuring that all can be done, making sure that the Casualties are packaged and ready for air transport Medevac if the sky is green. If the sky is red that presents problems getting a ground convoy. Continuing in my mind I would pray: For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world. I remember the promise Our Good Lord made to St. Faustina consoling her that for the dying, if someone prays the Divine Mercy Chaplet the soul would find peace. This hits home for me literally as my Mother would be told she had two days to live. She developed a massive blood clot that lodged in her right lower leg causing it to turn blue.
