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 1685.

During Holy Hour today, I ask the Lord Jesus if He would deign to teach me about the spiritual

life.

Jesus answered me, My daughter, faithfully live up to the words which I speak to you. Do not value

any external thing too highly, even if it were to seem very precious to you. Let go of yourself

and abide with me continually, entrust everything to me and do nothing on your own.

And you will always have great freedom of spirit.

No circumstances or events will ever be able to upset you.

Set little store on what people say.

Let everyone judge you as they like do not make

excuses for yourself it will do you no harm give away everything at the first sign of a

demand even if they were the most necessary things do not ask for anything without consulting me.

Allow them to take away even what is due you. Respect, your good name. Let your spirit rise
