This is a time for struggle

Post by Denise » Tue Oct 20, 2015 7:51 am

My Jesus, despite Your graces, I see and feel all my misery.

I begin my day with battle and end it with battle.

As soon as I conquer one obstacle, ten more appear to take its place. But I am not worried,

because I know that this is the time of struggle, not peace.

When the burden of the battle becomes too much for me,

I throw myself like a child into the arms of the heavenly Father

and trust I will not perish.

O my Jesus, how prone I am to evil,

and this forces me to be constantly vigilant.

But I do not lose heart.

I trust God's grace, which abounds in the worst misery.
In the midst of the worst difficulties and adversities,

I do not lose inner peace or exterior balance,

and this discourages my adversaries.

Patience in adversity gives power to the soul.



(#606-607)


Words of t St. Faustina

from Divine Mercy in My Soul
Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales
