Don’t Beat Yourself Up

Turn to any page of St. Faustina's Diary, and you'll find spiritual gems like this one:

Suddenly, I found myself in a strange cottage where an elderly man was dying amidst great torments. … When I began to pray …  The soul became calm and, filled with trust, rested in the Lord. 

At the same moment, I found myself again in my own room. How this happens... I do not know. (Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska, 1797)
