A Diamond in your mind

Nothing under the sun happens without Your will.---St. Maria Faustina

 

Sometimes we will hold on to a ragged hope as we live this life. St. Faustina was suffering great physical and spiritual pain when she wrote these words. She also said, "My soul is shrouded in suffering. I am continually uniting myself to Him by an act of the will. He is my power and strength." Tom Waits wrote, "Always keep a diamond in your mind." The diamond in our minds is The Passion. We have been given so much in the suffering and victory of Jesus! We have been given His very perspective and His understanding. Jesus kept a diamond in His mind, the will of His Father, and the reward set before Him; our love! We must do the same when Satan tells us we are loosing the fight. The liar! We may loose a day here and there, but the fight belongs to Jesus, and He has already won! Speak the words outloud Faustina spoke to the Lord  whenever Diablo comes to take away the diamond in your mind, "Nothing under the sun happens without Your will."
