25SecretsofspiritualstrugglethatJesusrevealedtoSt.Faustina(Part3)Howtoprotectyourselffromdemonattacks
18. When boredom and discouragement beat against your heart, run away from yourself and hide in My heart.
Jesus delivers the same message a second time. Now He refers to boredom. Earlier in the Diary he told St. Faustina that the devil most easily tempts idle souls. Beware of boredom, a spirit of lethargy, or acedia—the noonday devil. Idle souls are easy prey for demons. Be about the business of God.
19. Do not fear struggle; courage itself often intimidates temptations, and they dare not attack us.
Fear is the second most common tactic of the devil (pride is the first). Courage intimidates the devil—he will flee in the face of persevering courage that stands on Jesus, the rock. All people struggle, God is our provi-sion.
20. Always fight with the deep conviction that I am with you.
Jesus instructs a Sister in a convent to “fight” with conviction. She can do so because Christ accompanies her. Christians are called to fight with conviction against all demonic tactics. The devil tries to terrorize souls, demonic terrorism—resist! Invoke the Holy Sprit throughout the day.
21. Do not be guided by feeling, because it is not always under your control; but all merit lies in the will.
All merit lies in the will because love is an act of the will. We are completely free in Christ. We must make a choice, a decision for good or evil. What camp do we live in?
22. Always depend upon your superiors, even in the smallest things.
Christ is instructing a Religious here. But, we all have the Lord as our Superior. Dependence upon God is a weapon of spiritual warfare because we cannot win on our own. Proclaiming Christ’s victory over evil is part of intentional discipleship. Christ came to defeat death & evil. Proclaim Him!
23. I will not delude you with prospects of peace and consolations; on the contrary, prepare for great battles.
St. Faustina suffered physically and spiritually. She was prepared for great battles by the grace of God who upheld her. Christ clearly instructs us in scripture to be prepared for great battles, to put on God’s armor and resist the devil. Be vigilant and discerning always.
24. Know that you are on a great stage where all heaven and earth are watching you.
We are all on a great stage where heaven and earth are watching. What message is our life giving? What radiates from us—shades of light, darkness or grey? The way we live attracts more light or more darkness. If the devil does not succeed in pulling us into darkness, he tries to keep us in the category of the lukewarm, which is not pleasing to God.
25. Fight like a knight, so I can reward you. Do not be unduly fearful, because you are not alone.
The Lord’s words to St. Faustina can become our mantra: Fight like a knight! A knight for Christ knows well the cause that he fights for, the nobility of his mission, the King who he serves, and with blessed assuredness of the victory, he fights to the end, even at the cost of his life. If a young, uneducated, simple Polish nun, unit-ed to Christ, can fight like a knight, every Christian can do the same. Trust is victorious.

O Jesus, eternal Priest, keep your priests within the shelter of Your Sacred Heart, where none may touch them. Keep unstained their anointed hands,
which daily touch Your Sacred Body. Keep unsullied their lips, daily purpled with your
Precious Blood. Keep pure and unearthly their hearts, sealed with the sublime mark of the
priesthood. Let Your holy love surround them and shield them from the world's contagion. Bless
their labors with abundant fruit and may the souls to whom they minister be their joy and
consola on here and in heaven their beau ful and everlas ng crown. Amen. -St. Therese of Lisieux

THANK YOU!!!
A huge THANK YOU to all who contributed to the St. Joseph Altar and all who attended. Once again this community has shown its generous spirit. So many parishioners assisted in preparing this altar that it is impossible to thank each of you by name. However, special thanks are given to the Doug Lee family who donated the life-size statue of St. Joseph, to Mark and Trina Habetz who constructed the altar, to Catholic Daughters Court 2321 who hosted the altar and especially to Fr. Mark Derise who brought this devotion to Sts. Peter and Paul. The bed of a pickup truck was filled with food and goods for St. Joseph’s Diner. Fruits and vegetables were donated to the Desormeaux House, the Sisters of Charity and the Carmelite Sisters. All these organizations ex-pressed their sincere thanks to you. The Sts. Peter and Paul community was able to enjoy the cookies and cakes at the Easter egg hunt. God bless you all.
