O Duchu Świętym w "Dzienniczku" św. Faustyny

Dzienniczek św. Faustyny jest interesującym źródłem dla tych, którzy próbują ukazać Ducha Świętego w perspektywie miłosierdzia. Czy jednak można w Dzienniczku znaleźć wystarczające uzasadnienie teologiczne, aby Ducha nazwać miłosiernym, podobnie jak Ojca i Syna?

The Diary of St. Faustina Kowalska, though well known for its description of Jesus as the merciful Savior, lacks a comparable description of the role of the Holy Spirit in relation to Divine Mercy. One must understand the theological context of St. Faustina, of the Holy Spirit and Divine Mercy to see more clearly their connection. Whereas the merciful Jesus is the author of sanctification, the giver of Divine Mercy, the Holy Spirit is the very gift of mercy, gushing forth from His Sacred Heart in the rays of Blood and Water, which both forgives sins and lifts us from our misery to participate in the divine life of the Trinity. The Holy Spirit is the very content of Divine Mercy, for as goodness is ascribed to Him in a pre-eminent way, so too is mercy, removing our defects by filling us with His goodness and perfections.
