Revolution of Mercy: how kindness changes everything

Pope Saint John Paul II calls us! "Family, become what you are!" We desire an ideal, but so often it seems beyond our grasp. You can draw closer to that ideal daily. You can be awesome. You can be the family you want to be. When you started a family, were you thinking this? "I hope that each morning, I can wake up to the sound of bickering. It is my desire to yell at my children, and that we barely speak a civil word to each other. I want deep resentment for my vocation and to be irritable most of the time. My goal is to have my sanity hanging by a thread. I think wheedling, bargaining and threatening my kids is an effective means of gaining their cooperation." I didn't think so. This book will encourage you in your vocation, lift your spirits and help you to be the family you want to be. This book will help you and your children get to heaven. We all intend to be thoughtful, reasonable parents when we set out on the journey. We don't know how low we can sink sometimes, in the business of raising children. Often we are left wondering how on earth we got off that track, full of idealism and good intentions. It's a tough job, and you're tired. Exhausted. Physically and emotionally. How can we get out of the rut? Stop spinning our wheels? Get back on track? Parents are primarily concerned with the kind of people their children will grow up to be. Here's the good news: Raising good kids is less about technique and more about how you choose to live your life. Mercy is an outpouring of kindness - a generosity of spirit. Mercy is contagious, infectious...start an epidemic in your own home. Better yet, start a revolution. A Revolution of Mercy.
