You can grab the free workbook at www.catholicmomcalm.com/lent2024 Full text of St. Faustina's Diary. Reflection question: There is power in the name of Jesus. When we feel doubt and darkness, we can say, “Jesus, I trust in you.” Faustina’s faith even when being Catholic didn’t “feel good” was so strong. How can you deepen your faith despite what you’re going through right now? How can you more fully trust in Jesus? Excerpt from St. Faustina's Diary for today (23): That dreadful thought of being rejected by God is the actual torture suffered by the damned. I fled to Jesus’ Wounds and repeated the words of trust, but these words became for me an even greater torture. I went before the Blessed Sacrament, and I began to speak to Jesus: “Jesus, You said that a mother would sooner forget her infant than God His creature, and that ‘even if she would forget her infant, I, God, will never forget My creature.’ O Jesus, do You hear how my soul is moaning? Deign to hear the painful whimpers of Your child. I trust in You, O God, because heaven and earth will pass, but Your word will last forever.” Still, I found not a moment of relief.
