That's shopmercy.org. God bless you. Hello, I'm Father Joe Roche of the

Marian Fathers 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 141.

But my torments are coming to an end. The Lord is giving me the promised help. I can see it

in two priests, namely Father Andrash and Father

Sopocho. During the retreat before my perpetual vows, I was set completely at peace for the first time

by Father Andrash, and afterwards I was led in the same direction by Father Sopociko.

This was the fulfillment of the Lord's promise.

When I was set at peace and taught how to follow God's paths, my spirit rejoiced in the

Lord and it seemed to me that I was running, not walking.

My wings were spread for flight.

I soared into the very heat of the sun, and I will

not descend until I rest in him, in whom my soul has lost itself forever, and I subjected myself

totally to the action of grace. God stoops very low to my soul. I do not draw back, nor do I resist him, but I lose myself in him as my only treasure.

I am one with the Lord. It is as if the gulf between us, creator and creature, disappears.
