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 Kovalska from beginning to end. Today we take up from where we left off, beginning with diary entry

number 1489, part two from My Beloved Child.

Jesus, my beloved child, delight of my heart, your words are dearer and more pleasing to me than the

angelic chorus. All the treasures of my heart are open to you. Take from this heart all that

you need for yourself and for the whole world. For the sake of your love, I withhold the just chastisements which mankind has deserved.

A single act of pure love pleases me more than a thousand imperfect prayers.

One of your sighs of love atones for many offenses with which the godless overwhelm me.

The smallest act of virtue has unlimited value in my eyes because of your great love for me.

In a soul that lives on my love alone, I reign as in heaven.

I watch over it day and night.

In it, I find my happiness.

My ear is attentive to each request of its heart.

Often I anticipate its requests.
