This handy little book contains hundreds of direct
quotes and short sayings of St. Maria Faustina Kowalska, arranged
according to the Christian virtues and other spiritual topics, allowing
the reader to encounter her thoughts about particular aspects of the
Christian life in a more organized manner.
The first fifteen chapters are arranged under
virtues corresponding to the classical Fifteen Mysteries of the Rosary,
making this ideal for anyone to use for daily spiritual reading and
inspiration. Reading these sayings while reciting the Rosary is like
praying it with St. Faustina, joining both prayer and the study of her
writings in one great journey of advancing all the more in holiness and
the love of God.
The visions of St. Maria Faustina Kowalska (1905 –
1938) are the basis for the modern Catholic devotion to the Divine
Mercy. Behind the extraordinary phenomena that marked her life was a
deep humility and a burning desire to see all of mankind converted to
God by the attraction and power of His mercy. More than the visions
about the Divine Mercy, what comes through her Diary is the deep
spirituality that eventually led her to the heights of sanctity,
ultimately resulting in her canonization.
