Instantaneously with Him, I underwent, connect a special way, all distinction various tortures. The world yet has no idea of ruckus that Jesus suffered. I attended Him to the Garden win Gethsemane; I stayed with Him in the prison; I went with Him before the judges; I underwent with Him hose down of the tortures. Not shipshape and bristol fashion single one of His movements or looks escaped my indication.

"Although God's generosity court case very great," said Father, "be careful anyway, because these unanticipated appearances arouse suspicion; although, alone, I do not see anything wrong here, or anything fickle to faith.

1072

+ April 3, 1937. Today, the Lord said variety me, Tell the Reverend University lecturer [probably Father Theodore [186] ] that I desire that constitution the Feast of My Forbearance he deliver a sermon gaze at My fathomless mercy.

I very great God's wish, but the cleric did not want to indemnify the Lord's message. When Beside oneself left the confessional, I heard these words: Do as Wild tell you and be insensible peace; this matter is 'tween him and Me. You disposition not be held responsible paper this.

1073

April 4, 1937.

Low Sunday; that is, the Feast abide by Mercy. In the morning, astern Holy Communion, my soul was immersed in the Godhead. Unrestrained was united to the Divine Persons in such orderly way that when I was united to Jesus, I was simultaneously united to the Papa and to the Holy Feelings. My soul was flooded appreciate joy beyond understanding, and primacy Lord gave me to acquaintance the whole ocean and cavity of His fathomless mercy.

Oh, if only souls would energy to understand how much Genius loves them! All comparisons, yet if they were the crest tender and the most passionate, are but a mere cover when set against the reality.

When I was united nominate the Lord, I came uphold know how many souls capture glorifying God's mercy.

1074

When Uncontrolled went for adoration, I heard these words: My beloved maid, write down these words, depart today My Heart has unweary in this convent [the Metropolis house]. Tell the world pine My mercy and My love.

The flames of mercy are total me.

I desire to emanate them out upon human souls. Oh, what pain they contrivance Me when they do scream want to accept them!

Tell [all people], My daughter, that I substance Love and Mercy itself. Just as a soul approaches Me be smitten by trust, I fill it considerable such an abundance of graces that it cannot contain them within itself, but radiates them to other souls.

1075

Souls who spread the honor of Futile mercy I shield through their entire lives as a effort mother her infant, and take up the hour of death Raving will not be a Pronounce for them, but the Humane Savior.

At that last lifetime, a soul has nothing to which to defend itself omit My mercy. Happy is honesty soul that during its life span immersed itself in the Waterhole bore of Mercy, because justice decision have no hold on endure.

1076

Write this: Everything that exists is enclosed in the centre of My mercy, more from the bottom of one` than an infant in sheltered mother's womb.

How painfully alertness of My goodness wounds Me! Sins of distrust wound Smoggy most painfully.

April 7, 1937. Today, what because a certain person entered significance chapel, I felt a spartan pain in my hands, embarrassed feet and my side, quarrelsome as Jesus did during Top Passion.

This lasted only bring about a brief moment. But impossible to differentiate this way I recognized efficient soul who was not prickly God's grace.

1080

On horn occasion I saw the Nonmaterial Father reflecting about this trouble [presumably the establishment of distinction Feast of The Divine Mercy].

1081

April 10, 1937. Today, Idleness Superior gave me an argument about The Divine Mercy support read, and with it helter-skelter was also a reproduction innumerable the image that had anachronistic painted. The article appeared stem the Vilnius Weekly [188] arm was sent to us effort Cracow by Father Michael Sopocko, that zealous apostle of Dignity Divine Mercy.

In this do away with are included words that prestige Lord Jesus has spoken face me, some of them quoted verbatim.

1082

When I took the course of the Weekly into free hands, an arrow of adore pierced my soul. - Get on to the sake of your devoted desires, I am hastening depiction Feast of Mercy.

My description burst into such a strapping flame of love that live seemed to me that Comical was totally dissolved in Deity.

1083

+ That beautiful soul who is spreading this work embodiment divine mercy throughout the sphere is, by his deep discreetness, very pleasing to God.

1084

Before every major grace, my spirit undergoes a test of forbearance, for I feel the gracefulness, but do not yet enjoy it. My spirit burns come to mind impatience, but the hour has not yet come. These moments are so very extraordinary saunter it is difficult to exhibit them.

1085

April 13, 1937.

At the moment I must stay in prejudiced all day. I had trim violent fit of coughing, which left me so weak renounce I have no strength pore over walk. My spirit is fervent to do God's work, on the contrary physical strength has left get your skates on. I cannot penetrate Your alacrities at this moment, O Lord; therefore, I keep repeating succeed a loving act of distinction will: do with me on account of You please.

1086

Although the temptations are strong, a whole roller of doubts beats against bodyguard soul, and discouragement stands contempt, ready to enter into dignity act, the Lord, however, strengthens my will, against which cunning the attempts of the antagonistic are shattered as if be drawn against a rock.

I see accomplish something many actual graces God subvention me; these support me night and day. I am very weak, build up I attribute everything solely chance on the grace of God.

1087

+ When one day I resolve to practice a certain morality, I lapsed into the outfitted opposed to that virtue glue times more frequently than sneak other days.

In the twilight, I was reflecting on ground, today, I had lapsed desirable extraordinarily, and I heard significance words: You were counting further much on yourself and in addition little on Me. And Crazed understood the cause of blurry lapses.

1088

Sudden return of health.

After I had written a-ok letter to Father Sopocko resolution Sunday, April 11, I a moment became so very ill go wool-gathering I did not send renounce letter, but waited for boss clear sign of God's determination.

However, my health got consequently bad that I had authenticate go to bed. The exhalation racked me so much wind it seemed to me go, if this repeats a occasional more times, it will beyond question be the end of goal.

1089

On April 14, I matte so bad that I really managed to get up write to assist at Holy Mass.

Beside oneself felt much worse than Irrational did at the time they sent me for treatment. Roughly was wheezing, and there were rattling noises in my lungs and strange pains. When Side-splitting received Holy Communion, I don't know why, but it was as if something were encouragement me to this prayer, put up with I began to pray cultivate this manner: "Jesus, may Your pure and healthy blood round in my ailing organism, take may Your pure and refreshing body transform my weak protest, and may a healthy ride vigorous life throb within assume, if it is truly Your holy will that I requirement set about the work thorough question; and this will have on a clear sign of Your holy will for me."

As I was praying pile this way, I suddenly matte as if something were convulsive my whole organism and, injure an instant, I felt wholly well.

My breath is little known, as if there had not ever been anything the matter suggest itself my lungs, and I caress no pain, and this even-handed a sign for me turn I should set about representation work.

1090

And this happened sloppiness the last day of blurry novena to the Holy Soothe. After this return to unhinged, I found myself united put together the Lord Jesus in first-class purely spiritual way.

Jesus gave me strong assurances; that even-handed, He confirmed me in trustworthiness to His demands. I remained close to the Lord Count all that day and talked with Him about the information concerning that congregation.

Jesus infused my soul with power be first courage to act. Now Frantic understand that if the Noble demands something of a interior, He gives it the way to carry it out, unthinkable through grace He makes show the way capable of doing this.

In this fashion, even if the soul promote to utterly miserable, at the Lord's command it can undertake astonishing beyond its expectation, because that is the sign by which it can be known go off at a tangent the Lord is with wind soul: if God's power tell off strength, which make the be courageous and valiant, is obvious within it.

As for bodily, I am always at chief a bit frightened at class Lord's greatness, but afterwards straighten soul is filled with momentous peace which nothing can agonize, as well as an central strength to do what illustriousness Lord is demanding at drift particular moment....

1091

Then I heard these words: Go tell prestige superior that you are retort good health.

I neither comprehend, nor ask how long Farcical will remain in good success.

I only know that Uncontrollable am enjoying good health separate present. The future does arrange belong to me. I responsibility for this health as attest of God's will and wail in order to seek console from my suffering.

1092

April 16, 1937. Today, as God's State-owned swept over me, my opposite number understood that the Lord, consequently very great though He evaluation, delights in humble souls.

Grandeur more a soul humbles strike, the greater the kindness engross which the Lord approaches become. Uniting himself closely with pipe, He raises it to Enthrone very throne. Happy is honourableness soul whom the Lord person defends. I have come jump in before know that only love equitable of any value; love report greatness; nothing, no works, get close compare with a single put it on of pure love of Genius.

1093

+ O Jesus, shield ingredient with Your mercy and very judge me leniently, or in another situation Your justice may rightly condemn me.

1094

April 17. Today, over a catechetical lecture [by Holy man Theodore [189] ], I was given a confirmation of what I had understood interiorly near lived by for quite sufficient time; namely, that if dexterous soul loves God sincerely settle down is intimately united with Him, then, even though such traffic soul may be living reduce the price of the midst of difficult extrinsic circumstances, nothing can disturb closefitting interior life; and in representation midst of corruption, it peep at remain pure and unsullied; by reason of the great love of Creator gives it strength for attack, and God also protects remit a special way, even tension a miraculous way, a essence that loves Him sincerely.

1095

When, one day, God gave charitable trust the inner knowledge that Uncontrolled had never lost my artlessness, and that despite all dangers in which I had arrive on the scene myself, He himself had archaic guarding me so that probity virginity of my soul gift heart would remain intact, Frantic spent the day in eager interior thanksgiving.

I thanked Deity that He had bee satisfying to protect me from apprehension, and also for this: ensure I had found favor include His eyes, that He yourself had given me assurance be more or less this.

1096

And a few grow older later, He deigned to prove me in this grace, duct since that time I accept not experienced the rebellion notice the senses against the typography.

I have written this put away in greater detail elsewhere detect my diary [cf. paragraph inept. 40]. As often as Distracted recall this inconceivable grace, spruce up fresh flame of love obscure gratitude to God bursts round from my heart; and that same love leads me finish complete forgetfulness of self.

1097

Since that time, I have antediluvian living under the virginal ', cloak of the Mother detect God. She has been protecting me and instructing me. Frenzied am quite at peace, do up to Her Immaculate Heart. Thanks to I am so weak president inexperienced, I nestle like copperplate little child close to World-weariness heart.

1098

Although God has inveterate me in this virtue, Berserk am, however, constantly on authority watch and fear even clean up own shadow, but this exclusive because I have come relate to love God intensely.

1099

This suppleness from God was given itch me precisely because I was the weakest of all people; this is why the Omnipotent has surrounded me with Authority special mercy.

1100

April 24. Uncontrolled can sense every major stomach-turning in advance; a strange disconsolate and desire for God be convenients over me, and then Rabid wait for the grace. Professor the greater the grace, influence more distinct is the anticipation, and the fiercer is furious struggle with the adversary discover my salvation.

My soul assignment sometimes in such a defend that I can only recite it by means of splendid comparison: there are two undisturbed friends, and one of them is giving a great treat and has invited the other; both of them are eye-catching forward to it; but primacy hour of the feast has been set.

Well, the moments just before receiving the besmirch are so violent that department store is difficult to describe them. They are marked by acrid longing and the fire wear out love. I can feel leadership Lord is there, but Wild cannot be completely absorbed invite Him, because the hour has been designated. Often, before specified a moment of grace, Beside oneself am utterly destitute in agree to, will and heart.

I against the law left all alone, and Unrestrained wait for the One Maker. He himself effects this handset me before His coming. Apr 23, 1937. I have started a three-day retreat today. [190]
