The Sacrament of Reconciliation and Penance Jesus' words to Sister Faustina:
When you go to Confession,
to this fountain of My mercy, the Blood and Water which came forth from My Heart always flow down upon your soul and ennoble
it. Every time you go to Confession, immerse yourself entirely in My mercy, with great trust, so that I may pour the bounty
of My grace upon your soul. When you approach the confessional, know this, that I Myself am waiting there for you. I am only
hidden by the priest, but I Myself act in your soul. Here the misery of the soul meets the God of mercy. Tell souls that from
this fount of mercy souls draw graces solely with the vessel of trust. If their trust is great, there is no limit to My generosity.
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 (1602). Today I am sending you with My mercy to the people
of the whole world. I do not want to punish aching mankind, but I desire to heal it, pressing
it to My Merciful Heart. (1588)
Tell souls where they are
to look for solace; that is, in the Tribunal of Mercy. There the greatest miracles take place (and) are
incessantly repeated. <>To avail oneself of this miracle, it is not necessary to go on a great pilgrimage or to carry
out some external ceremony; it suffices to come with faith to the feet of My representative and to reveal to him one's misery
and the miracle of Divine Mercy will be fully demonstrated. Were a soul like a decaying corpse so that
from a human standpoint, there would be no (hope of) restoration and everything would already
be lost, it is not so with God. The miracle of Divine Mercy restores that soul in full.
Oh, how miserable are those who do not take advantage of the miracle of God's mercy! You
will call out in vain, but it will be too late (1448). Write: “ I am saint,
three times saint and feel aversion by the slightest sin. I cannot love a soul stained
by sin, but when it regrets it, then My generosity for that soul has no limits. My
mercy embraces it and justifies. I chase sinners with My mercy in all its ways and My Heart is glad when
they return to Me. I forget the bitterness that they gave My Heart to drink, and I am glad when
they return. Tell them that no sinners will escape from My hands. If they flee
from My merciful Heart, they will fall in my just and fair hands. Tell sinners that
always I will wait for them, I kindly listen to the beats of their hearts to know when
they will beat for Me Write that I speak to them through the remorse of conscience, the failures and the sufferings,
storms and rays, I speak with the voice of the Church and if they frustrate all My graces,
I get annoyed, and leave them to themselves giving them what they wish.”
