The Gospel of John says: “No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is him-self God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known” (J 1, 18). In the scene where Philip asks Jesus: “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us”. Jesus answers: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father” (J 14, 8–9). The subject of this article Merciful face of God in the sign of the picture “Jesus, I trust in you” refers to those words “Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father”. Looking at the image of the merciful Christ we have unusual experience. Faustina says that it represents the Incarnated Word of God, which took a human body with its limitations.

Divine Mercy is for man the reality which is both mysterious and hopeful. Out of the richness of the Bible the author points out only selected data: he analyzes biblical vocabulary, which turns out to be the invitation to the participation in the mystery of the Divine Mercy, he focuses on the sense of the mercy as meeting spiritual and temporal needs. He points out to God who makes man an active protagonist of the Divine Mercy mystery. This mercy is presented as a gold thread, as the heart of the whole God’s activity, of the whole creation and salvation, giving life, coming with rescue and giving fullness of life.
