✞ The agony in the Garden was, in a special way, for the help of the dying; the agony on the Cross was for help at the last moment, at the very last breath.
Volume 9 — Entry 36
My beloved children! See how the Sacred Heart of my Son and my Motherly Heart are both wrapped in the thorns of the sins of the whole world. Have compassion on them [the Hearts of Jesus and Mary] and do penance. Intercede with them, particularly for the wounds inflicted by the shepherds who have betrayed our Most Sacred Hearts, and pray for priests faithful to the true Faith who are humiliated, oppressed and persecuted. I immerse you in the love of the Heart of Jesus and of my Heart.
