Jesus to St. M. Faustina Kowalska;
“Poor soul, I see that
you suffer much and that you do not have even the strength to converse with me.
So I will speak to you. Even though your sufferings were very great, do not
lose heart or give in to despondency. But tell Me, my child, who has dared to
wound your heart? Tell Me about everything, be sincere in dealing with Me,
reveal all the wounds of your heart. I will heal them and your suffering will
become a source of your sanctification…
My child do not be
discouraged. I know your boundless trust in Me; I know that you are aware of My
goodness and mercy. Let us talk in detail about everything that weighs so
heavily upon your heart…
Talk to me simply, as a
friend to a friend. Tell Me now, my child, what hinders you from advancing in holiness?…
My child make the
resolution never to rely on people. Entrust yourself completely to My will
saying ‘Not as I want, but according to Your Will, O God, let it be done unto
me.’ These words, spoken from the depths
of one's heart, can raise a soul to the summit of sanctity in a short time. In
such a soul I delight. Such a soul gives Me glory. Such a soul fills heaven
with the fragrance of her virtue. But understand that the strength by which you
bear sufferings comes from frequent Communions. So, approach this fountain of
mercy often, to draw with the vessel of trust whatever you need.
