aeternus

Just thought I would share a little bit from a novena for the Grace of Childlike Trust… its day six of the novena…

“The torrents of grace inundate humble souls. The proud remain always in poverty and misery, because My grace turns away from them to humble souls” (Jesus to St. Faustina from her Diary 1602)

Faustina: “O How beautiful is a humble soul! God refuses nothing to such a soul; she is all powerful and influsences the destiny of the whole world. God raises such a soul up to His very throne, and the more she humbles herself, the more God stoops down to her, pursuing her with His graces and accompanying her at every moment with His omnipotence. Such a soul is most deeply united with God” (Diary 1306)

Saint Faustina, obtain for me the grace of true humility so that I may accept the truth about God, about the world and about myself. And may this make me trustful, like a child towards its heavenly Father, acknowledging my dependence on Him as Creator and Savior.
