“Katrin, Katrin, why are you hesitating? Why do you fear?
Lord, if I look at all you’ve given me, I’m afraid of what you might want in return.
“Katrin, have I not shown you how gentle I am with you? Have I not shown you only kindness? Why do you fear? Look at your life. Have I ever allowed anything you couldn’t bear?”
No Lord, all you’ve shown me is mercy and love, and the tough times came when I went off on my own.
“Katrin, all I want is for you to be my friend. All I want is for you to not be afraid of me and to come to me.”
That’s all, Lord?
“That’s all.”
St. Faustina, simple with childlike trust, intercede for me.
Divine Mercy, sweet relief for anguished hearts, I trust in You.

“Be not afraid. I go before you, always. Come, follow me. And I will give you rest.”
