Has there ever been a soul as abandoned as you were on the Cross, Jesus?

When I was by myself, I began to reflect on the spirit of poverty. I clearly saw that Jesus, although He is Lord of all things, possessed nothing. From a borrowed manager He went through life doing good to all, but Himself having no place to lay His head. And on the Cross, I see the summit of His poverty, for He does not even have a garment on Himself. O Jesus, through a solemn vow of poverty I desire to become like you; poverty will be my mother. As exteriorly we should possess nothing to dispose of as our own; so interiorly we should desire nothing. And in the Most Blessed Sacrament, how great is Your poverty! Has there ever been a soul as abandoned as you were on the Cross, Jesus?

By St. Faustina (+1938), from her Diary, Notebook II, #533
