Reflections from the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska

Graces of Retreats
This Grace Is Being Given

A few weeks before I was told about the probation, I entered the chapel for a moment and Jesus said to me, At this very moment the superiors are deciding which sisters are going to take perpetual vows. Not all of them will be granted this grace, but this is their own fault. He who does not take advantage of small graces will not receive great ones. But to you, My child, this grace is being given (Diary, 165).

My Prayer Response:
Lord Jesus, may we, like St. Faustina, take advantage of small graces. Help us to be faithful in receiving Your graces with thanksgiving and sharing them with others.

"Many people [in authority] oppose us, persecute us, and would like even to destroy us, but we must be patient. As long as their commands are not against our conscience, let us obey them, but when the case is otherwise, let us uphold the rights of God and of the Church, for those are superior to all earthly authority."
— St. John Bosco
