Hello, I'm Father Joe Roche of the Marianfathers of the Immaculate Conception.

Thank you for joining us as we continue with our year-long journey, reading the diary of

St. Maria Faustina Kavalska from beginning to end. Today we take up from where we left off, beginning

with diary entry number 1056. At 11 o'clock, Jesus said to me, my host, you are refreshment for my

tormented heart. I thought, after these words, that my heart would burn up,

and he brought me into such close intimacy with himself

that my heart was espoused to his heart in a loving union,

until I could feel the faintest stir of his heart and he of mine.

The fire of my created love was joined to the ardor of his eternal love.

This one grace surpasses all others in its immensity.

His trinitarian being enveloped me entirely, and I am totally immersed

in him. My littleness is, as it were, wrestling with this immortal, mighty one. I am immersed

in incomprehensible love, and incomprehensible torture, because of his passion,

all that concerns his being is imparted to me also. Up to now, Jesus has been bringing me to know about

and to have a presentiment of this grace, but today he granted it to me.
