St. Faustina, in the midst of her fears and difficulties, found great consolation in her prayers to Jesus. The grace stemming from her prayer life was hope.
In every difficult situation St. Faustina turned to Jesus, Who in return gave her the strength to overcome her fears.
"When I am with You, Jesus, I fear nothing, for nothing can do me harm. O my Jesus, I fear nothing, neither hardships or sufferings." (Diary of St. Faustina 306, 517)
Jesus taught St. Faustina to never rely on her own skills or talents, nor to rely on other people, but to rely on God alone.
Sister Faustina prayed for God's good grace and never doubted that she would receive it.
"I do not doubt even for a moment that I will obtain the help of Your grace... Jesus, my only hope is in You." (Diary of St. Faustina)
In these very difficult times, may we pray for complete trust in Jesus, Who in return, will bring us hope in God's good grace.
St. Faustina...pray for us!
Jesus, I Trust in You,
