The Power of Submitting to God's Will
urn to any page of St. Faustina’s Diary, and you find spiritual gems. Marc Massery, a staff writer for the Marian Fathers at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy, reflects on one such gem:
During my meditation, I heard these words: “My daughter, you give Me most glory by patiently submitting to My will, and you win for yourself greater merit than that which any fast or mortifica- tion could ever gain for you. Know, My daughter, that if you submit your will to Mine, you draw upon your- self My special delight. This sacrifice is pleasing to Me and full of sweetness. I take great pleasure in it; there is power in it”. (904).
