Saint Faustina and the Devotion to the Divine Mercy
by Lourdes Policarpio 
The Diary of Saint Faustina Kowalska of the Congregation of Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy is the basis for the Divine Mercy devotion which has rapidly spread throughout the world. It consists of six notebooks written by Saint Faustina at the command of the Lord Jesus. Sister Faustina’s confessor, Fr. Michael Sopocko, without realizing he was echoing the Lord, later said: “I had no time to listen to her (Sister Faustina’s) lengthy confessions at the confessional, so I told her to write everything down and then to show it to me from time to time. This is how the Diary came into being.”
