1. Reflection:<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

Conversation of the Merciful God with a Soul Striving after Perfection.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jesus:\u00a0\u00a0I am pleased with your efforts, O soul aspiring for perfection, but why do I see you so often sad and depressed?\u00a0 Tell Me, My child, what is the meaning of this sadness, and what is its cause?\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Soul:\u00a0 Lord, the reason for my sadness is that, in spite of my sincere resolutions, I fall again into the same faults.\u00a0 I make resolutions in the morning, but in the evenings I see how much I have departed from them.<\/p>\n

Jesus:\u00a0\u00a0You see, My child, what you are of yourself.\u00a0 The cause of your falls is that you rely too much upon yourself and too little on Me.\u00a0 But let this not sadden you so much.\u00a0 You are dealing with the God of mercy, which your misery cannot exhaust.\u00a0 Remember, I did not allot only a certain number of pardons.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0Soul:\u00a0 Yes, I know all that, (91<\/strong>) but great temptations assail me, and various doubts awaken within me and, moreover, everything irritates and discourages me.<\/p>\n

Jesus:\u00a0\u00a0My child, know that the greatest obstacles to holiness are discouragement and an exaggerated anxiety.\u00a0 These will deprive you of the ability to practice virtue.\u00a0 All temptations united together ought not disturb your interior peace, not even momentarily.\u00a0 Sensitiveness and discouragement are the fruits of self-love.\u00a0 You should not become discouraged, but strive to make My love reign in place of your self-love.\u00a0 Have confidence, My child.\u00a0 Do not lose heart in coming for pardon, for I am always ready to forgive you.\u00a0 As often as you beg for it, you glorify My mercy.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Soul:\u00a0 I understand what is the better thing to do, what pleases You more, but I encounter great obstacles in acting on this understanding.<\/p>\n

Jesus:\u00a0\u00a0Mi child, life on earth is a struggle indeed; a great struggle for My kingdom.\u00a0 But fear not, because you are not alone.\u00a0 I am always supporting you, (92) so lean on Me as you struggle, fearing nothing.\u00a0 Take the vessel of trust and draw from the fountain of life \u2013 for yourself, but also for other souls, especially such as are distrustful of My goodness<\/strong>\u00a0(Saint Mar\u00eda Faustina Kowalska, Divine Mercy in My Soul, Diary, 1488).<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
