Diary: Divine Mercy in My Soul

Shortly before the outbreak of World War II, a simple, uneducated, young Polish nun receives a special call. Jesus tells her "I am sending you with My mercy to the people of the whole world. I do not want to punish mankind, but I desire the heal it, pressing it to My merciful heart." Jesus also tells her to record His message of mercy in a diary: "You are the secretary of My mercy. I have chosen you for that office in this and the next life." These words of Jes us are found in the Diary of St. Maria Faustina Kowalska, which chronicles Sr. Faustina's great experience of Divine Mercy in her soul and her mission to share that mercy with the world. In the Diary this woman mystic's childlike trust, simplicity, and intimacy with Jesus will stir your heart and soul. Her spiritual insights will surprise and reward you. "Only love has meaning," she writes. "It raises up our smallest actions into infinity."
