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 1632. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, The desires of my heart are so great and

incomprehensible that nothing can fill the abyss of my heart. Even the most beautiful

things gathered from all over the world would not for a moment fill your place for me, O God.

With one glance I penetrated the whole world, and I found no other love like the love of my heart.

Therefore, I looked into the world of eternity because this one is too small for me.

My heart has desired the love of the immortal one.

My heart has sensed that I am a royal child, that I have found myself in exile in a foreign

land. I see that the heavenly palace is my home. Only there will I feel as in my own fatherland.

You yourself have drawn my soul to you, O Lord, O eternal word. You

yourself have stooped to me, giving my soul a deeper knowledge of yourself. Behold the

mystery of love for which you have created me.

Pure love has made me strong and brave.
