Divine Mercy Daily
Reflections from the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska
Monday, March 21 Do Not Fear; I Am with You Go in Great Peace My daughter, tell souls that I am giving them My mercy as a defense. I Myself am fighting for them and am bearing the just anger of My Father (Diary, 1516).
April 20, [1938]. Departure for Pradnik. I was very worried that I would be put in bed in a ward and be exposed to all sorts of things. If it were to be for only a week or two ... but it is for such a long time, two months or perhaps more. In the evening, I went in for a long talk with the Lord Jesus. When I saw the Lord Jesus, I poured out my whole heart before Him, all my troubles, fears, and apprehensions. Jesus lovingly listened to me and then said, Be at peace, My child, I am with you. Go in great peace. All is ready; I have ordered, in My own special way, a private room to be prepared for you. Reassured and overwhelmed with gratitude, I went to bed (Diary, 1674).
My Prayer Response:
Thank You, Lord Jesus, for teaching us to trust in Your mercy. Your mercy is our defense in battle and our peace in anxiety.
