Summary
"I heard a voice within me say, Do you believe Me now?" 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.

| 0:55.9 | off, beginning with Diary Entry Number 74. The Confession of One of Our Words. |
| 1:06.1 | One day I felt driven to take steps to see to it that the the feast of mercy be instituted, and the image of the |
| 1:14.3 | merciful Jesus be painted, and I could find no peace. Something was pervading my whole being, |

| 1:37.3 | at that time, told me that one can have, often have illusions, and I felt that he was somewhat afraid to hear my confession. |
| 1:48.4 | This was a torture for me, seeing that I was getting very little help from people. |
| 1:54.0 | I turned all the more to Jesus, the best of all teachers. |
| 1:59.0 | At one time, when I was filled with doubts as to whether the voice |
