Fifth Day:
Today bring to Me THE
SOULS OF THOSE WHO HAVE SEPARATED THEMSELVES FROM MY CHURCH,* and immerse
them in the ocean of My mercy. During My bitter Passion they tore at My Body
and Heart, that is, My Church. As they return to unity with the Church, My
wounds heal and in this way they alleviate My Passion.
Most Merciful Jesus, Goodness Itself, You do not refuse light to those who seek it of You. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who have separated themselves from Your Church. Draw them by Your light into the unity of the Church, and do not let them escape from the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart; but bring it about that they, too, come to glorify the generosity of Your mercy.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of those who have separated themselves from Your Son's Church, who have squandered Your blessings and misused Your graces by obstinately persisting in their errors. Do not look upon their errors, but upon the love of Your own Son and upon His bitter Passion, which He underwent for their sake, since they, too, are enclosed in His Most Compassionate Heart. Bring it about that they also may glorify Your great mercy for endless ages. Amen.

*Our Lord's original
words here were "heretics and schismatics," since He spoke to Saint
Faustina within the context of her times. As of the Second Vatican Council,
Church authorities have seen fit not to use those designations in accordance
with the explanation given in the Council's Decree on Ecumenism (n.3). Every
pope since the Council has reaffirmed that usage. Saint Faustina herself, her
heart always in harmony with the mind of the Church, most certainly would have
agreed. When at one time,
because of the decisions of her superiors and Father confessor, she was not
able to execute Our Lord's inspirations and orders, she declared: "I will
follow Your will insofar as You will permit me to do so through Your
representative. O my Jesus, I give priority to the voice of the Church over the
voice with which You speak to me" (Diary, 497). The Lord confirmed
her action and praised her for it.

Sixth Day:
Today bring to Me THE MEEK AND HUMBLE SOULS AND THE SOULS OF
LITTLE CHILDREN, and immerse them in My mercy. These souls most closely
resemble My Heart. They strengthened Me during My bitter agony. I saw them as
earthly Angels, who will keep vigil at My altars. I pour out upon them whole
torrents of grace. Only the humble soul is capable of receiving My grace. I
favor humble souls with My confidence.
Most Merciful Jesus, You yourself have said, "Learn from Me for I am meek and humble of heart." Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart all meek and humble souls and the souls of little children. These souls send all heaven into ecstasy and they are the heavenly Father's favorites. They are a sweet-smelling bouquet before the throne of God; God Himself takes delight in their fragrance. These souls have a permanent abode in Your Most Compassionate Heart, O Jesus, and they unceasingly sing out a hymn of love and mercy.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon meek souls, upon humble souls, and upon little children who are enfolded in the abode which is the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest resemblance to Your Son. Their fragrance rises from the earth and reaches Your very throne. Father of mercy and of all goodness, I beg You by the love You bear these souls and by the delight You take in them: Bless the whole world, that all souls together may sing out the praises of Your mercy for endless ages. Amen.
