Saint Faustina wrote, “If the angels were capable of envy, they would envy us for two things: one is the receiving of Holy Communion, and the other is suffering.” What is Creator’s perspective?

It seems if suffering is currency, it is a factor only in the calculus of karma, that the suffering you cause is the suffering waiting to return to you. So, from a wholly rational perspective, the only “good” accounting of suffering is working to END it as quickly and efficiently as possible through HEALING and the attainment of wisdom. Saint Faustina demonstrated that it is possible to take on the sufferings of others as if one were wearing their cloak for a day. But this seems like an extraordinarily costly, limited, and dangerous (to the healer) way to do healing. Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol are the most effective ways to end and avoid needless suffering for both subject and healer alike?

Jeffrie Murphy had this to say in his article about forgiveness and mercy in the Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy: “Forgiveness and mercy are regarded as virtues in many moral and religious traditions, although different traditions will emphasize different aspects. The Christian tradition, for example, tends to emphasize purity of heart as the core of the virtue of forgiveness, whereas the Judaic tradition gives priority to the social dimension of reintegration into the covenanted community. Forgiveness involves the overcoming of anger and resentment, and mercy involves the withholding of harsh treatment that one has a right to inflict.” With this assertion, divine mercy would involve the withholding of harsh treatment that the divine “has a right to inflict” via judgment or, more accurately, karma. What is Creator’s perspective?

Murphy continues: “Both (forgiveness and mercy) allow for healing, but some critics would say that this healing may come at too high a price. Forgiveness, if carried to extremes, can lapse into servility, entailing a loss of self-respect. There are similar paradoxes associated with mercy, particularly in the context of punishment; too strong an emphasis on mercy can lead to a departure from justice. Clearly, though both forgiveness and mercy are obvious virtues, there are difficulties in putting them into practice in the complex situations that make up everyday reality.” What is Creator’s perspective?

Saint Faustina wrote, “That dreadful thought of being rejected by God is the actual torture suffered by the damned.” She also wrote, “I understood that apart from God there is no contentment anywhere.” What is Creator’s perspective?

Saint Faustina wrote, “God demands great trust from souls.” This can seem like a paradox, for many people assume that trust is something you either have or do not have, that there is no “choice” involved. And that if a soul does not trust God, then how can such a soul give to God what they do not possess? What is Creator’s perspective?

Most thoughtful people believe there is truth to the notion, “To whom much is given, much is required.” This can create a dilemma for anyone contemplating asking for assistance, that dilemma is the fear of becoming unwittingly indebted. Saint Faustina wrote, “Once the Lord said to me, ‘Act like a beggar who does not back away when he gets more alms [than he asked for], but offers thanks the more fervently. You too, should not back away of receiving greater graces when I give them to you. I know you are unworthy, but rejoice all the more and take as many treasures from My Heart as you can carry, for then you will be pleased more. And I will tell you one more thing – take these graces not only for yourself, but also for others; that is, encourage the souls with whom you come in contact to trust in My infinite mercy. Oh, how I love those souls who have complete confidence in Me – I will do everything for them.'” This first question for Creator is, were these the words of Jesus or an Anunnaki psychic? If Jesus, what can Creator tell us about the fear that anything from the Divine will have onerous strings attached, and how can we get past that fear, that distrust?

When Saint Faustina was given instructions from Jesus to have her vision of him painted as a portrait for souls to approach and receive graces and inspiration from, she was further instructed to include the words, “Jesus I trust in you.” Does this suggest that the issue of “trust in the divine,” and the widespread lack thereof, is perhaps the elephant in the room? Is this indeed a significant problem for the bulk of humanity? What percentage of the population would you say have “significant trust issues” with God and anything associated with the divine? As trust is often hard-won, but easily lost, is this why so much emphasis is placed on it?

It is clearly a divine project to restore trust in the divine. The numerous paintings resulting from the description of Jesus, that Saint Faustina wrote down in her diary, are today venerated throughout the Catholic Church. But recently, in just the last seven years, the young visionary artist Akiane painted a photo-realistic image of Jesus she aptly entitled “Jesus.” The image is remarkable on a multitude of levels. It displays great kindness, and gentleness, but also profound strength and self confidence. Jesus is looking off into the distance with a look of respect, recognition, anticipation, expectation, and reverence. But it truly connotes that whoever Jesus himself is looking at possesses the same qualities he does in even greater measure. That while Jesus is looking up, it is not out of fear of something mightier, but rather more like recognizing the approach of a beloved mentor who is simultaneously your best friend, partner, and confidant. The irresistible impulse for anyone viewing this masterpiece is to not want to stare at Jesus as much as turn our own heads and try to look at what he is looking at. Is it indeed TRUST in the divine that is the inspiration behind this masterpiece?

Saint Faustina wrote that Jesus said to her, “In convents too, there are souls that fill my Heart with joy. They bear my features; therefore the Heavenly Father looks upon them with special pleasure. They will be a marvel to Angels and men. Their number is very small. They are a defense for the world before the justice of the Heavenly Father and a means of obtaining mercy for the world. The love and sacrifice of these souls sustain the world in existence.” Are these the words of Jesus or an Anunnaki psychic? Are convents sustaining the world? What can Creator tell us?

The fact we have learned that Saint Faustina heard both the words of Jesus, and those of interlopers, creates a difficult dilemma for anyone wanting to use her diary for inspiration. Perhaps the best advice for us is the same advice her confessor, Father Jozef Andrasz, gave to her early in her vocation, “If these inspirations are not in accord with the faith or the spirit of the Church, they must be rejected immediately as coming from the evil spirit.” Can Creator share with us how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol are the best means by which we can obtain divine assistance to know what is truly divine in origin, and what is not, as well as obtain the confidence and trust needed to do this consistently?

A “Bodhisattva” is described as being “a person who is able to reach nirvana but delays doing so out of compassion in order to save suffering beings.” Is a Bodhisattva one who chooses to align their fate with humanity, to the extent that if humanity fails, they too must start over?
