But it is only true insofar as it is precisely out of this present and coming purification <em>of the earth<\/em> that the greatest of triumphs, unseen since the days of Noah, are to come.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong>It was the Lord\u2019s will that\u2026 we who have been redeemed by His precious blood should constantly be sanctified according to the pattern of His own passion.<\/strong> \u2014St. Gaudentius of Brescia, <em>Liturgy of the Hours<\/em>, Vol II, P. 669 <\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #000066; font-family: Trebuchet MS; font-size: small;\"><strong>The Church will enter the glory of the kingdom only through this final Passover, when she will follow her Lord in his death and Resurrection.<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"color: #000066; font-size: small;\"><strong> \u2014<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><em>Catechism of the Catholic Church<\/em>, 677 <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p align=\"LEFT\">The head of wheat that springs from the hidden grain, the flowers that emerge from the burnt forest floor, the green grass that rises from the manure, the butterfly that flies from the cocoon, the sun that rises after darkest of nights&#8230; in all of nature, we see this pattern. But the greatest miracle is that of <em>Divine Mercy <\/em>in the soul\u2014that God can take all of my sins of the past, all my failures, all my faults, and transform them\u2014change me\u2014into something beautiful for Him.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong>\u2026between Me and you there is a bottomless abyss, an abyss which separates the Creator from the creature.
