'Today I heard these words: In
the Old Covenant I sent prophets wielding thunderbolts to My people. Today I
am sending you with My mercy to the people of the whole world. I do not want
to punish aching mankind, but I desire to heal it, pressing it to My
Merciful Heart. I use punishment when they themselves force Me to do so; My
hand is reluctant to take hold of the sword of justice. Before the Day of
Justice I am sending the Day of Mercy. I replied, "Oh my Jesus,
speak to souls yourself, because my words are insignificant." ' (Diary,
1588)
