A sister from St Faustina’s convent died and appeared to her shortly after still suffering in flames. Her loved ones had stopped praying for her because they assumed a good woman did not need it. St Faustina’s diary warns that this is a dangerous mistake.

This video breaks down three common habits from the Diary of Divine Mercy that quietly leave deceased souls waiting in Purgatory far longer than necessary. We address the trap of assuming someone is already fine just because they were good, replacing spiritual help with material tributes, and delaying prayers because we think we have time.
