Second, Pope Leo XIII, on July 21, 1899, recommended that all Bishops observe a feast in their respective diocese.

The Divine Mercy devotion, made popular by St. Faustina, reveals in the image of Jesus with a pierced heart. The pierced heart signifies the event when a centurion standing near the cross thrust his spear through Jesus’ side. Further pushing it into his heart, after Jesus died upon the cross. The Bible states that blood and water flowed out of this wound.
