Darryl Friesen’s Reviews > Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska: Divine Mercy in My Soul > Status Update

“I know now that nothing can put a stop to my love for You, Jesus, neither suffering, nor adversity, nor fire nor the sword, nor death itself. I feel stronger than all these things. Nothing can compare with love. I see that the smallest things done by a soul that loves God sincerely have an enormous value in His Holy eyes.”

“I feel immensely happy at the greatness of God. Seeing God’s greatness is more than enough to make me happy throughout all eternity!”

“O my God, my only hope, I have placed all my trust in You, and I know I shall not be disappointed.”

“Even when I am dealing with very important matters which require attention, I do not lose the presence of God in my soul, and I am closely united with Him. With Him I go to work, with Him I go for recreation, with Him I suffer, with Him I rejoice; I live in Him and He in me. I am never alone…”

“Great love can change small things into great ones, and it is only love which lends value to our actions.”

The words of Jesus to St Faustina:

“Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy.

Oh, how much I am hurt by a soul‘s distrust! Such a soul professes that I am Holy and Just, but does not believe that I am Mercy and does not trust in My Goodness. Even the devils glorify My Justice but do not believe in My Goodness.”

“Let no soul, even the most miserable, fall prey to doubt; for, as long as one is alive, each one can become a great saint, so great is the power of God‘s grace. It remains only for us not to oppose God‘s action.”

“Love is heaven given us already here on earth…Love tears away the veil. There is no veil before the eye of my soul, for You Yourself have drawn me into the bosom of secret love forever. Praise and glory be to You, O Indivisible Trinity, One God, until ages of ages!”

“Jesus, I ask You with all my heart, let me know what there is in me that displeases You and also let me know what I should do to become more pleasing to You…I know that without You, Lord, all my efforts will not amount to much. Oh, how I rejoice at Your greatness, O Lord!”
