At three o'clock, implore My mercy, especially for sinners; and, if
only for a brief moment, immerse yourself in My Passion, particularly in
My abandonment at the moment of agony. This is the hour of great mercy
... In this hour I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request
of Me in virtue of My Passion. (Diary 1320).
As often as you hear the clock strike the third hour immerse yourself
completely in My mercy, adoring and glorifying it, invoke it's
omnipotence for the whole world, and particularly for poor sinners, for
at that moment mercy was opened wide for every soul. In this hour you
can obtain everything for yourself and for others for the asking; it was
the hour of grace for the whole world - mercy triumphed over justice.
Try your best to make the Stations of the Cross in this hour,
provided that your duties permit it; and if you are not able to make the
Stations of the Cross, then at least step into the chapel for a moment
and adore, in the Most Blessed Sacrament. My Heart, which is full of
mercy: and should you be unable to step into chapel. immerse yourself in
prayer there where you happen to be, if only for a very brief instant. (Diary
1572)
