Reflections from the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska
Monday, March 6 Do Not Fear;I Am with YouAs a Little Child
Once, when I was deeply moved by the thought of eternity and its mysteries, my soul became fearful; and when I pondered about these a little longer, I started to be troubled by various doubts. Then Jesus said to me, My child, do not be afraid of the house of your Father. Leave these vain inquiries to the wise of this world. I want to see you always as a little child. Ask your confessor about everything with simplicity, and I will answer you through his lips (Diary, 290).
My daughter, have fear of nothing; I am always with you. All your adversaries will harm you only to the degree that I permit them to do so. You are my dwelling place and my constant repose. For your sake I will withhold the hand which punishes; for your sake I bless the earth (Diary, 431). My Prayer Response: Lord Jesus, with childlike simplicity, may I always trust in You. I will then watch with delight to see how You work things out in Your providence.
