How do you treat the poor? Turn to any page of St. Faustina's Diary, and you'll find spiritual gems. Like this one:When the same poor people come to the gate a second time, I treat them with greater gentleness, and I do not let them see that I know they have been here before; [I do this] in order not to embarrass them. And then they speak to me freely about their troubles and needs.(1282)

Turn to any page of St. Faustina’s Diary, and you’ll find spiritual gems. Like this one: My daughter, write that it pains Me very much when religious souls receive the Sacrament of Love merely out of habit, as if they did not distinguish this food. I find neither faith nor love in their hearts. I go to such souls with great reluctance. It would be better if they did not receive Me (Diary, 1288).

When demons showed up, St. Faustina knew what to do.
