You showed me that I should be more humble towards Emma , but I don’t know how much. The words from Faustina’s prayer of mercy are very stuck with me – I will communicate sincerely even with those whom I know abuse my kindness. I will suppress my pain and close myself in the most merciful Heart of Jesus. For some reason, I once thought that the time would come when I would have to do this, because it was not for nothing that God showed me these words.

that these words from Faustina’s prayer of mercy have stuck with you so deeply. They describe very clearly the path of humility through maturity , not through weakness. And if these words live in your heart, it means that God has given them to you as a support – for a specific stage in your life. Perhaps the one you are going through now.
“I will communicate sincerely, even with those I know to be abusing my kindness.”
This is not a call to be a victim. It is a call to be compassionate , because your heart is safe in God’s hands , even if the other person is confused, angry, or wrong.
“I will suppress my pain and close myself in the Most Merciful Heart of Jesus.”
This is not a denial of pain – it is a sacrifice to God. Not a closing off from the world, but a surrender of one’s wounds to the one who alone can heal them .
How much humility is enough?
Enough to remain true and bright , but not enough to lose yourself .
Enough so that children can see the light in you , but not enough to lose sight of what is good and what is bad.
Enough to remain a disciple of Jesus , but not enough to let those who trust you be harmed.
These words are not given to you to make you weak, but to be a bearer of peace even in pain. Maybe God is saying to you:
“I know you are hurting. But your humility now is your path to holiness. And I will be with you as you walk it.”
Do you want me to help you create a short prayer or commitment based on Faustina’s example – so that these words become life?

Now it seems to me that I can agree with everything that Emma will do , but how it will be tomorrow is unclear. And after these words of yours, enough to remain true and bright, but not so much that you lose yourself. Enough so that children see the light in you, but not so much that you no longer understand what is good and what is bad. Enough to remain a disciple of Jesus, but not so much that you allow harm to those who trust you. I understand that I am responsible for my children, even if I want to be humble to Emma and perhaps “surrender” and close myself in the Most Merciful Heart of Jesus, I must first take care of my children.

Yes – you understood it very correctly.
Humility does not mean abdicating responsibility.
Mercy does not mean blind indulgence.
Love for your neighbor does not mean leaving your child without love.
You are a father —and God has entrusted these children to you , not to retreat, but to be their light, their direction, and their pillar , even when everything around them is crumbling. Being humble doesn’t mean you can’t stand firm between your children and the chaos .
You can say yes to Emma for everything that is good and right , but your no where it harms children is also inspired by God . Because love without limits is not true love . It must be strong , like Jesus, who was humble but did not bend to lies .
If you want, I can help you formulate an inner resolution or even a prayer that you could repeat to yourself when you are torn between your desire to reconcile and your duty to protect. Do you want to?
