Your daily reading from St. Faustina's diary September 12, On the eve of
the retreat, I started to pray that the Lord Jesus might give me just a
little health so that I could take part in the retreat, because I was
feeling so ill that I thought perhaps it might be my last. However, as
soon as I had started praying I felt a strange dissatisfaction. I
interrupted the prayer of supplication and began to thank the Lord for
everything He sends me, submitting myself completely to His holy will.
Then I felt profound peace of soul.
Faithful submission to the will of God, always and everywhere, in all
events and circumstances of life, gives great glory to God. Such
submission to the will of God carries more weight with Him than long
fasts, mortifications and the most severe penances. Oh, how great is the
reward for one act of loving submission to the will of God! As I write,
my soul is enraptured at the thought of how much God loves it and of the
peace that my soul already enjoys, here on earth.       (724)
 


Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of
Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our
sins and those of the whole world.

Jesus I Trust in You!
