Being Patient
Being Patient
Do you struggle to be patient sometimes? Saint Faustina wrote:
"True works of God always meet opposition and are marked by suffering. If God wants to accomplish something, sooner or later He will do so in spite of the difficulties. Your part, in the meantime, is to arm yourself with great patience" (270).

Turn to any page of St. Faustina's Diary, and you'll find spiritual gems. Like this one:This would be my mortification. I did not know that this would be so beneficial to my soul. The benefit is that I am meditating constantly on His sorrowful Passion and so, while I am eating, I am not preoccupied with what I am eating, but am reflecting on my Lord’s death. (618)
Forty-eight times in St. Faustina's Diary, Jesus tells St. Faustina not to be afraid. That's right. We counted.
