Reflections from the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska
Sunday, February 13 Spiritual Directors and Confessors A Priest after My Own Heart
[August 30,'37] Reverend Father Sopocko left this morning. When I was steeped in a prayer of thanksgiving for the great grace that I had received from God; namely, that of seeing Father, [ Jesus said to me,] He is a priest after My own Heart; his efforts are pleasing to Me. You see, My daughter, that My will must be done and that which I had promised you, I shall do. Through him I spread comfort to suffering and careworn souls. Through him it pleased Me to proclaim the worship of My mercy. And through this work of mercy more souls will come close to Me than otherwise would have, even if he had kept giving absolution day and night for the rest of his life, because by so doing, he would have labored only for as long as he lived; whereas, thanks to this work of mercy, he will be laboring till the end of the world (Diary, 1256).
My Prayer Response:
Lord Jesus, thank You for choosing Fr. Sopocko to proclaim the worship of Your mercy. Guide me in sharing with others about Your mercy.
