Day 23 of 40: Daily Encounters with Jesus

March 16, 2026: This Lent, let us step into a daily two-minute encounter with Jesus, guided by the intimate conversations recorded in St. Faustina’s Diary. Come, listen to His voice, and speak to Him from your heart.

In the Diary (1146), Jesus reminds St. Faustina that His mercy is especially offered to those who feel most distant from Him.

Sometimes we imagine that God only welcomes the strong or the holy. But Jesus repeatedly reveals that His Heart is drawn toward the weak, the struggling, and the discouraged.

His mercy is not reserved for the perfect. It is meant for those who are willing to return to Him.

This Lent, let us remember that no matter how far we may feel, His mercy is always greater.

Ask Yourself: Do I believe that Jesus truly desires to show me mercy? Am I allowing guilt or discouragement to keep me from approaching Him?

Pray: Jesus, help me trust in Your mercy
