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 1530. I am keeping myself a bit in the background, as though this work of God did not

interest me. I am not speaking about it at present, but my whole soul is steeped in prayer, and I am entreating

God to be so good as to hasten this great gift, that is to say, the feast of mercy.

And I see that Jesus is acting, and is himself giving the directives as to how this is to be carried out. Nothing happens by accident.

Today I said to the Lord Jesus, do you see how many difficulties there are to be overcome before

they will believe that you yourself are the author of this work. And even now,

not everyone believes in it. Be at peace, my child. Nothing can oppose my will. In spite of the

murmuring and hostility of the sisters, my will shall be done in you and in all its fullness, down to the last detail

of my wishes and my designs.

Do not become sad about this.

I too was a stumbling stone for some souls.

Jesus complained to me of how painful to him is the unfaithfulness of chosen souls. Jesus complained to me of how painful to him is the unfaithfulness of chosen souls.
