Summary
"Paint an image according to the pattern you see, with the signature: Jesus, I trust in You," St. Faustina writes. Listen in as Fr. Joseph Roesch, MIC, reads from this modern spiritual classic.
The Lord’s “Secretary of Divine Mercy,” St. Faustina, wrote what has become a modern-day spiritual classic — a blueprint for living a sacramental life in union with Jesus Christ. For anyone who may think the Diary is too thick and formidable, Fr. Joseph Roesch, MIC, has the solution. Join him for a few minutes each day as he reads from the Diary and offers commentary. Over the span of one year, you will have “read" the Diary, beginning to end, and absorbed its rich teachings.

| 1:01.0 | Paint an image according to the pattern you see, with the signature, Jesus, I trust in you. |
| 1:08.0 | I desire that this image be venerated, first in your chapel, and then throughout the |
| 1:15.1 | world. I promise that the soul that will venerate this image will not perish. I also promise victory |

| 1:31.3 | own glory. When I told this to my confessor, I received this for a reply. That refers to your soul. |
| 1:40.7 | He told me, certainly, paint God's image in your soul. When I came out of the confessional, I again heard words such as these. |
