Daily Reflections, supplications and prayers

Sunday, March 17, 2024

1. Reflection:

Jesus made known to me how very pleasing to Him were prayers of atonement. He said to me, The prayer of a humble and loving soul disarms the anger of My Father and draws down an ocean of blessings. After the adoration, half way to my cell, I was surrounded by a pack of huge black dogs who were jumping and howling and trying to tear me to pieces. I realized that they were not dogs, but demons. One of them spoke up in a rage, “Because you have snatched so many souls away from us this night, we will tear you to pieces.” In answered, “If that is the will of the most merciful god, tear me to pieces, for I have justly deserved it, because I am the most miserable of all sinners, and God is every holy, just, and infinitely merciful.” To these words all the demons answered as one, “Let us flee, for she is not alone; the Almighty is with her!” And they vanished like dust, like the noise of the road, while I continued on my way to my cell undisturbed, finishing my Te Deum and pondering the infinite and unfathomable mercy of God. (Saint María Faustina Kowalska, Divine Mercy in My Soul, Diary, 396-397.

2. Supplications:

  • Let us ask for the grace to rejoice always for the conversion of others,
  • Let us pray for the conversion of our relatives and of those who are under the influence of the evil one,
  • For the souls in purgatory,
  • For our suffering humanity and for our personal intentions.
