Is there someone in your life who is hard to love? Turn to any page of St. Faustina's Diary, and you'll find spiritual gems, like this one:Oh, how often virtue suffers only because it remains silent. To be sincere with those who are incessantly stinging us demands much self denial. One bleeds but has no visible wounds. (236)

Is there someone in your life who frequently annoys you? Here's how St. Faustina dealt with those who troubled her.

Jesus said: Do not be absorbed in your misery — you are still too weak to speak of it — but, rather, gaze on My Heart filled with goodness, and be imbued with My sentiments. … when you feel your strength failing, if you come to the fountain of mercy to fortify your soul, you will not grow weary on your journey (Diary, 1486).
