Jesus the Teacher
The Spiritual Guide of Souls
The very inner depths of My being are filled to overflowing with mercy, and it is being poured out upon all I have created. My delight is to act in a human soul and to fill it with My mercy and to justify it. My kingdom on earth is My life in the human soul. Write, My secretary, that I Myself am the spiritual guide of souls — and I guide them indirectly through the priest, and lead each one to sanctity by a road known to Me alone (Diary, 1784).
My Prayer Response:
Lord Jesus, fulfill Your delight and fill souls that trust in You with Your mercy. Guide each one of us to sanctity by a road known to You alone. You are the spiritual guide of my soul.
Everything passes in time
I must never judge anyone, but look at others with leniency and at myself with severity. I must refer everything to God and, in my own eyes, recognize myself for what I am: utter misery and nothingness. In suffering, I must be patient and quiet, knowing that everything passes in time.
(Diary 253)
