I was wondering if anybody would be willing to help me…

I’m traveling right now, and don’t have my Diary of St. Faustina, but I have a notation about paragraph 52 of her diary that seems to really relate to things that I’m going through right now.

If anyone has the time or inclination right now, I would be GREATLY APPRECIATIVE if you could private message me, or respond to this post, with a transcription of that paragraph.

I can’t remember how they number her diaries. If they start the numbers over for each notebook, and it’s not too long, I’d be interested in paragraph 52 from notebooks One and Three. I actually remember that it was from one of those. LOL. (Don’t ask me to try and explain how my mind works)
 
Here is her diary online. Unfortunately, there are no paragraph numbers on this source.

Are these the paragraphs you are looking for?
Paragraph 52, Notebook One
When I tried to run away from these interior inspirations, God said to me that on the day of judgment He would demand of me a great number of souls.
Once, exhausted because of these various difficulties that had befallen me because of what Jesus had said to me and what He had demanded of me for the painting of this image, I made up my mind to approach Father Endures before my perpetual vows, and to ask him to dispense me from all these interior inspirations and from the duty of painting this image. After having heard my confession, Father Endures gave me this answer: “I will dispense you of nothing, Sister; it is not right for you to turn away from these interior inspirations, but you must absolutely - and I say, absolutely - speak about them to your confessor; otherwise you will go astray despite the great graces you are receiving from God”.
“For the present you are coming to me for confession, but understand, Sister, that you must have a permanent confessor, that is to say, a spiritual director.”
Notebook Three, Paragraph 1052
O my Jesus, I beg You on behalf of the whole Church: Grant it love and the light of Your Spirit, and give power to the words of priests so that hardened hearts might be brought to repentance and return to You. O Lord, Lord, give us holy priests; You yourself maintain them in holiness. O Divine and Great High Priest, may the power of your mercy accompany them everywhere and protect them from the devil’s traps and snares which are continually being set for the souls of priests. May the power of Your mercy, O Lord, shatter and bring to naught all that might tarnish the sanctity of priests, for You can do all things.
