Diary of St. Faustina - 197

O Church of God, you are the best mother, you alone can rear a soul and cause it to grow. Oh, how great is my love and respect for the Church, that best of all mothers!
 
Diary of St. Faustina - 82

I will not allow myself to be so absorbed in the whirlwind of work as to forget about God. I will spend all my free moments at the feet of the Master hidden in the Blessed Sacrament. He has been tutoring me from my most tender years.
 
Diary of St. Faustina - 1577

Tell souls not to place within their own hearts obstacles to My mercy, which so greatly wants to act within them. My mercy works in all those hearts which open their doors to it. Both the sinner and the righteous person have need of My mercy. Conversion, as well as perseverance, is a grace of My mercy.

Words of Jesus to St. Faustina
 
Diary of St. Faustina - 1520

I have opened My Heart as a living fountain of mercy. Let all souls draw life from it. Let them approach this sea of mercy with great trust. Sinners will attain justification, and the just will be confirmed in good.

Diary of St. Faustina - 1645

I saw the suffering Lord Jesus who leaned down toward me and whispered softly, "My daughter, help Me to save sinners". Suddenly, a burning desire to save souls entered my soul. When I recovered my senses, I knew just how I was to help souls, and I prepared myself for greater sufferings.
 
Diary of St. Faustina - 1146

Souls that make an appeal to My mercy delight Me. To such souls I grant even more graces than they ask. I cannot punish even the greatest sinner if he makes an appeal to My compassion, but on the contrary, I justify him in My unfathomable and inscrutable mercy.

Diary of St. Faustina - 409

When I was attending Mass in a certain church with another sister, I felt the greatness and majesty of God; I felt the church was permeated by God. His majesty enveloped me and, though it terrified me, it filled me with peace and joy. Oh, if only all souls knew who is living in our churches, there would not be so many outrages and so much disrespect in these holy places!

Most sweet Jesus, set on fire my love for You and transform me into Yourself. Divinize me that my deeds may be pleasing to You. May this be accomplished by the power of the Holy Communion which I receive daily.
 
Diary of St. Faustina - 582

The interior of my soul is like a large and magnificent world in which God and I live. Except for God, no one is allowed there. No one will understand what I experience in that splendid palace of my soul where I abide constantly with my Beloved.
 
Diaryof St. Faustina - 745

I was so enveloped in the great interior fire of God’s love and the desire to save souls. I feel I am all aflame. I shall fight all evil with the weapon of mercy. I am being burned up by the desire to save souls. I traverse the world’s length and breadth and venture as far as its ultimate limits and its wildest lands to save souls. I do this through prayer and sacrifice.

Help me, O Lord, that my tongue may be merciful, so that I should never speak negatively of my neighbour, but have a word of comfort and forgiveness for all.

When I receive Holy Communion, I entreat and beg the Saviour to heal my tongue, that I may never fail in love of neighbour.
 
Diary of St. Faustina - 840

It is only in eternity that we shall know the great mystery effected in us by Holy Communion. O most precious moments of my life!
 
Diaryof St. Faustina - 508

When a reluctance and a monotony as regards my duties begins to take possession of me, I remind myself that I am in the house of the Lord, where nothing is small and where the glory of the Church and the progress of many a soul depend on this small deed of mine, accomplished in a divinized way.
 
Diary of St. Faustina - 1581

O my Jesus, my Master, I unite my desires to the desires that You had on the cross: I desire to fulfil Your holy will; I desire the conversion of souls; I desire that Your mercy be adored; I desire that the triumph of the Church be hastened; I desire sanctity for priests.
 
Diary of St. Faustina - 450

Oh, how sweet it is to toil for God and souls! I want no respite in this battle, but I shall fight to the last breath for the glory of my King and Lord. I shall not lay the sword aside until He calls me before His throne; I fear no blows, because God is my shield.
 
Diary of St.Faustina - 584

When you reflect upon what I tell you in the depths of your heart, you profit more than if you had read many books. Oh, if souls would only want to listen to My voice when I am speaking in the depths of their hearts, they would reach the peak of holiness in a short time.

I am one with the Lord. It is as if the gulf between us, Creator and creature, disappears. For a few days, my soul was in a state of continuous ecstasy. God’s presence did not leave me for a single moment. And my soul remained in a continuous loving union with the Lord. But this in no way interfered with the performance of my duties. I felt I was transformed into love.
 
Diary of St. Faustina - 318

I know God is in my heart. And the fact that I feel Him in my heart does not interfere with my duties. Even when I am dealing with very important matters which require attention, I do not lose the presence of God in my soul, and I am closely united with Him.
