Fear nothing; I am with you

[Diary 655]

(110) + May 11, 1936.  I came to Cracow.  I was happy that at last I shall be able to carry out all that the Lord Jesus was demanding.

Once, when I was speaking with Father A…. [Andrasz] and had told him everything, I received this answer:  “Sister, pray till the day of the Feast of the Most Sacred Heart and add some mortification to the prayer, and on the Feast of the Sacred Heart I will give you an answer.”  But one day, I heard this voice in my soul: Fear nothing; I am with you.  After these words, I felt such an urgency within me that, without waiting for the Feast of the Sacred Heart, I said during confession that I was going to leave the Congregation immediately. Father answered, “Sister, since you have made the decision by yourself, then take the responsibility for yourself.  Go.”  I was happy to be leaving.

The following morning, God’s presence suddenly left me.  (111)  A great darkness came over my soul.  I could not pray.  Because of this sudden loss of the presence of God, I decided to postpone the matter for a while, until I had talked with Father.

Father A. [Andrasz] answered that such changes in souls were frequent, and that this was not an obstacle to action.
