Love and Mercy

Love and Mercy

Few days ago I was in Cinema with my family. We were watching „Love and Mercy” movie directed by Michał Kondrat. I really wanted to see it because of thriller. I’m a catholic but i don’t like the movies about some people who f.ex. saw a God or someone saint at the movie wants to show this adventure in the way they’ve told them how it was, because it usually looks so artificial. Example of this projection is “Heaven is for real”

This movie in contrary was half documentary and made me really satisfied at the end. It tells a story of saint Faustina from her teenage life to the end and after her’s death, when her confessor was trying to he would fulfill the instructions given to her by God. It shows the proofs that she’s seen a God for real. For example the thing that she “predicted” (God showed her) Second World War and the destroyed and demolished Warsaw at this time.

What was fascinating is  the picture of Jesus who wanted to be painted the way he was seen by her. She was working with the painter for half of a year by many hours to give it an identical look as she’s seen. The painter was exhausted and enormously annoyed by her tips. He was distracted  and angry at the moment of her entering his painting atelier. At the end she was satisfied by the painting.

After many years the scientists made a research and compared this painting to the Manopello image and Shroud of Turin. They observed that 8 points of a face in this two images was in identical place of face in Jesus misericordias painting.
