What About the Poor?
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)

Did you know that Jesus told St. Faustina not to be afraid — 48 times in her Diary!
Saint Faustina prayed the Rosary every day. One time, she wrote:… [One time] I saw many demons. One of these tried to vex me; taking the form of a cat, he kept throwing himself onto my bed and on my feet, and he was quite heavy, as if [weighing] a ton. I kept praying the rosary all the while, and toward dawn these beings vanished, and I was able to get some sleep. (412)
