Abstract

The aim of this paper was to show the value of the attitude of trust in God on the part of a person for his/her social commitment. The source for this reflection was the Diary of St. Sister Faustina Kowalska. Achieving the research goal defined in this way could not but begin with indicating the source of the human attitude of trusting in God. It is God’s Providence. Thanks to it, a person can grow and develop. The second step in the reflection was the reflections on man’s response to this divine communion. As a result of the analyses of the Diary of St. Sister Faustina Kowalska, it was indicated that this form would be prayer based on faith in Jesus Christ. The analysis of Sister Faustina’s Diary showed that the more she united with Christ in prayer, the harder she wanted to serve others. The last step of the reflection was to show the value of the social message of St. Sister Faustina Kowalska, contained in her Diary. The analyses of her Diary, which is the basis of her teaching, provide a basis for expressing a clear conclusion that Sister Faustina was not only a faithful nun of her Congregation, but also a devoted daughter of her nation who cares for its development and prosperity. In this way, she has become part of the flow of people who guard the social development of the nation.
