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

November 22, 1934. +On one occasion, my spiritual director [Father Sopocko] told me to look carefully into myself and to examine whether I had any attachment to some particular object or creature, or even to myself, or whether I engaged in useless chatter, \u201cfor all these things,\u201d [he said,] \u201cget in the way of the Lord Jesus, who wants complete freedom in directing your soul. God is jealous of our hearts and wants us to love Him alone.\u201d<\/p>\n

When I started to look deep within myself, I did not find any attachment to anything, but as in all things that concern me, so also in this matter, I was afraid and distrustful of myself. Tired out by this detailed self-examination, I went before the Blessed Sacrament and asked Jesus with all my heart, \u201cJesus, my Spouse, Treasure of my heart,\u00a0(142)\u00a0<\/b>You know that I know You alone and that I have no other love but You; but, Jesus, if I were about to become attached to anything that is not You, I beg and entreat You, Jesus, by the power of Your mercy, let instant death descend upon me, for I prefer to die a thousand times than to be unfaithful to You once in even the smallest thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

At that moment, Jesus suddenly stood before me, coming I know not from where, radiant with unbelievable beauty, clothed in a white garment, with uplifted arms, and He spoke these words to me,\u00a0My daughter, your heart is My repose; it is My delight. I find in it everything that is refused Me by so many souls. Tell this to My representative.\u00a0<\/b>And an instant later, I saw nothing, but a whole ocean of consolations entered my soul.<\/p>\n

I know now that nothing can put a stop to my love for You, Jesus, neither suffering, nor adversity, nor fire nor the sword, nor death itself. I feel stronger than all these things. Nothing can compare with love. I see that the smallest things done by a soul that loves God sincerely have an enormous value in His Holy eyes\u00a0(Saint Mar\u00eda Faustina Kowalska, Divine Mercy in My Soul, Diary, Diary, 337-340)<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n
