and will beg for the crumbs that fall from the table . Knowing Your mercy , I therefore approach You , Jesus , for sooner will I run out of misery than will the compassion of Your Heart exhaust itself . That is why during this day I will keep arousing trust in The Divine Mercy ( Diary , # 1827 ).
5.6 When Souls Do Not Unite with Jesus in Holy Communion ( Diary , # 1447 ): Jesus told Sr . Faustina that He felt the “ pain ” when souls remained indifferent to Him and did not unite with Him in Holy Communion :
Oh , how painful it is to Me that souls so seldom unite themselves to Me in Holy Communion . I wait for souls , and they are indifferent toward Me . I love them tenderly and sincerely , and they distrust Me . I want to lavish My graces on them , and they do not want to accept them . They treat Me as a dead object , whereas My Heart is full of love and mercy . In order that you may know at least some of My pain , imagine the most tender of mothers who has great love for her children , while those children spurn her love . Consider her pain . No one is in a position to console her . This is but a feeble image and likeness of My love ( Diary , # 1447 ).
( 10.6 ) When Souls Offend God but Do Not Grasp Their Own Sinful Ways
( Diary , # 1717 ): In late May or early June 1938 , Sr . Faustina wrote in her Diary on Jesus ’ great suffering when chosen souls committed the vice of envy , besides their lazy chatter , critical judgments of others , as well as wasting the time that was originally meant for God . They also did not realize their own errant ways by which they offended God greatly :
There are souls with whom I can do nothing . They are souls that are continuously observing others , but know nothing of what is going on within their own selves . They talk about others continually , even during times of grand silence , which is reserved for speaking only with Me . Poor souls , they do not hear My words ; their interior remains empty . They do not look for Me within their own hearts , but in idle talk , where I am never to be found . They sense their emptiness , but they do not recognize their own guilt , while souls in whom I reign completely are a constant source of remorse to them . Instead of correcting themselves , their hearts swell with envy , and if they do not come to their senses , they plunge in even deeper . A heart , which thus far is envious , now begins to be filled with hate . And they are already at the edge of the precipice . They are jealous of My gifts
