REFLECTION:

«At the beginning of the spiritual exercises I saw the LORD JESUS nailed to the cross on the roof of the chapel, looking with great love at the sisters, but not at all. There were three sisters to whom he directed a severe look. I don’t know, I don’t I know for what reason, I only know that it is a terrible thing to see such a look that is a look from the severe Judge. That look did not correspond to me; however fear paralyzed me; when I write it, I tremble all over. I did not dare to say to Jesus not a single word, my physical strength abandoned me and I thought I would not resist until the end of the preaching. The next day I saw the same thing as the first time and I dared to say these words: – Oh JESUS, how great is Your Mercy. On the third day, the same look was repeated on all the sisters with great benevolence, except those three sisters. Then, I was filled with daring that came from love for my neighbor and I said to the LORD: – You are Mercy itself, as You Yourself have told me, because I beg You by the power of Your Mercy, turn Your kind look also to those three sisters and if this is not according to Your Wisdom, I beg You to make a change: May Your kind look towards my soul be for them and that Your severe gaze towards their souls be for me. Suddenly, JESUS told me these words: – My daughter, for your sincere and generous love I grant them many Graces, even though they do not ask Me for them, but for the promise that I have made to you. And at that moment he also wrapped those three sisters with a merciful look. My heart fluttered with great joy when I saw the goodness of GOD.» (Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska, The Divine Mercy in my soul, Diary, 383).
