Divine Will for every day of the year - August 22, 1931 Volume 29

My abandonment in the Divine Volition continues, and I try as much as I can to unite my little acts to those of the Divine Will, so as to form a single one with Its acts, almost to be able to say:  “Whatever You do, I do.  I plunge myself into Your light in order to extend myself together with You, and in this way I can embrace and love all with Your own Will.”  

But while I was doing this, my beloved Jesus told me:  “My daughter, the acts done in My Divine Will have such virtue and power as to transform themselves into Divine Messengers, that set off from the earth for the vault of the Heavens.  And since these messengers set off from within My Divine Will, but sent by a creature who operates and lives in It, they bring with themselves free entrance into Our Celestial Fatherland, and bring the happy news that the earth wants the Kingdom of Our Will, because a little exiled one lives and operates in It, and does nothing but make use of that same Will that reigns in Heaven in order to ask that It may descend to reign upon earth as It reigns in Heaven.  These messengers of light—how many secrets do they not hide!  Already on its own, the Light of Our Divine Will is the Secretary of all things, Divine and human, and it knows how to keep the true secret; and while in appearance one sees light, inside this light it hides all secrets and all things—no one can escape it.  This light contains the Great Secret of the whole history of Creation, and it confides its secrets only to one who wants to live in Its Light.  In fact, the Light has the virtue of disposing the creature to live and to comprehend its Divine Secrets, and, if needed, it will dispose her to lay down her life so that it may give life to its intimate secrets and to the purpose of Creation, which was only that Our Will would reign on earth as It does in Heaven.  

“Therefore, My daughter, if you remain attentive to live always of My Will, It will entrust to you all the secrets of the history of Creation, It will make in your soul the deposit of all Its Joys and Its Intimate Sorrows, and, as to Its own secretary, with Its vibrating Light, transforming Itself into brush, It will paint in you the sun, the heavens, the stars, the sea, the beautiful flowerings.  In fact, when It speaks, It is not content with only words; to Its inextinguishable Love and to Its interminable Light words are not enough, but It wants to do deeds; and therefore, with Its Creative Virtue, while It entrusts Its Secrets, It speaks and forms the New Creation in the creature.  It is not content with telling Its Secrets, but It wants to do the works that Its Secrets contain.  Therefore, in the creature who lives in My Will, New Heavens, suns more refulgent than the very Creation, will be seen.  In fact, you must know that My Will has a yearning, an ardent desire, of wanting to always Operate; but It keeps looking for one who wants to listen to It, and who wants to receive Its Creative Virtue, so as not to expose Its Works to uselessness.  And in order to be sure, It keeps looking for Its own Will in the soul; and, in finding It, It finds Its Works secured by Its same Divine Fiat; therefore It spares Itself in nothing, and there It does the Most Beautiful Works and the Greatest Prodigies.  Oh! Power of My Omnipotent Will—if all knew You, loved You and let You reign, the earth would turn into Heaven.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 21, 1901 Volume 4

As I was in my usual state, I found myself outside of myself. After going round and round in search of Jesus, I found the Queen Mama instead, and oppressed and tired as I was, I said to Her: “My most sweet Mama, I lost the way to find Jesus; I don’t know where else to go, nor what to do in order to find Him again.”

While saying this, I was crying, and She said to me: “My daughter, follow Me and you will find the way, and Jesus. Even more, I want to teach you the secret of how you can always be with Jesus, and live always content and happy, even on this earth: fix in your interior that there is only Jesus and you in the world, and no one else; and that Him alone must you please, satisfy and love, and from Him alone must you expect to be Loved in return and contented in everything. If you are in this way with Jesus, you will no longer be affected, whether you are surrounded by scorns or praises, by relatives or strangers, by friends or enemies. Jesus alone will be all your Contentment, and Jesus alone will be enough for you in the place of all. My daughter, until everything that exists down here disappears completely in the soul, one cannot find true and perpetual contentment.”

Now, while She was saying this, Jesus came into our midst as though from within a flash. I took Him and brought Him with me, and I found myself inside myself.

… Now, while these and other thoughts were passing through my mind, my Jesus moved in my interior, and with His usual Light told me: “My daughter, when a Sanctity is individual, in time and space, it has more external prodigies in order to attract those individuals, places and times, to receive the grace and the good which that sanctity contains. On the other hand, the Sanctity of living in my Will is not an individual sanctity, assigned to do good to certain places, to certain people and to certain times; rather, it is a Sanctity which has to do good to all, in all times and in all places. It is a Sanctity which remains eclipsed in the Eternal Sun of My Will, which, invading all, is Light without speech, Fire without wood, without clamor, without smoke; but in spite of this, it does not cease to be the most Majestic, the most Beautiful, the most Fecund. Its Light is more pure, Its Heat more intense, and the true image of it is the Sun which illuminates our horizon – it illuminates all, but without clamor. It is light, but has no speech; it says nothing to anyone – the good it does, the seeds it fecundates, the life it gives to all plants, and how it purifies the polluted air with its heat, and destroys all that can be noxious to all humanity. It is so silent that, even though they have it with them, they pay no attention to it. But in spite of this, it does not cease to be majestic and beautiful, and to continue the good it does for all. And if the sun were missing, everyone would cry over it, since the greatest miracle of fecundity and preservation of all nature would be missing.

“The Sanctity of living in My Will is more than Sun. A soul who is upright and fully ordered in My Will is more than an army in battle. Her intelligence is ordered and bound to the Eternal Intelligence; her heartbeats, affections, desires, are ordered with Eternal Bonds. Therefore, her thoughts, her Will and all her interior, are armies of messengers which come from her and which fill Heaven and earth; they are speaking voices; they are weapons which defend all, and first of all, their God. They bring good to all; they are the true Celestial and Divine militia which the Supreme Majesty keeps all ordered within Itself, always ready at all Its commands. …”

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 19, 1908 Volume 8

Having done my meditation on the fact that one who sows good will harvest good, and one who sows vices will harvest evils, I was thinking about what good I could sow, given my position, my misery and inability. At that moment, I felt I was being harvested, and I heard Him say in my interior: “The soul must sow good with her whole being – with all of it. The soul possesses a mental intelligence, and she must apply it to comprehend God, to think of good alone, never allowing any bad seed to enter her mind; and this is the sowing of good with the mind. The same with her mouth: she must never sow any bad seed, that is, bad words, unworthy of a Christian, but always say holy, useful and good words; so here is the sowing of good with the mouth. Then, with her heart she must love God alone, desire God, palpitate for Him, and tend to Him; here is the sowing of good with the heart. Then, with her hands she must do holy works, with her feet she must walk after the examples of Our Lord; and here is another good seed.”

On hearing this, I thought to myself: “So, in my position I too can sow good in spite of my extreme misery.” But I thought of this with a certain fear of the account that the master will ask of me - whether I have sown well; and in my interior I heard Him repeat: “My Goodness is so great that great wrong is done by those who make Me known as severe, very demanding and rigorous. Oh, what an affront they give to My Love! I will ask for no other account but of the little field given to them; and I will ask for an account for nothing but to give them the fruit of their harvests. I will give it to the intelligence, for the more it has comprehended Me in life, the more it will comprehend Me in Heaven; and the more it will comprehend Me, the greater the Joy and Beatitude with which it will be inundated. To the mouth I will give the harvest of the different Divine Flavors, and its voice will harmonize above all the other Blessed; to the works I will give the harvests of My Gifts; and so with all the rest.”

… Then, after this, He … came to my little soul, resuming His speaking:  “My daughter, how much I care about My Will, how I love, how I yearn that It become known.  My interest is so great that I am disposed to give any grace to whomever wants to occupy himself with making It known.  Oh, how I wish that they would hurry, because I see that all My Rights will be given back to Me, the order between God and the creature will be re-established.  I will no longer give My Gifts to the human generations as halved, but as whole, nor will I ever again receive from them things that are incomplete, but whole.  Ah! my daughter, being able to give and wanting to give, but finding no one to whom to give is always a pain and a weight with no hope of relief.  If you knew with how much jealousy of Love I stay around the soul when I see her disposed to do her acts in My Will!  Before she begins her act I make the Light and the Virtue of My Will flow in it, so that her act may take its origin on the Virtue that My Will contains.  As she keeps forming it, the Divine Light and Virtue invest it and carry it out.  As she completes it, the Light is sealed over it and gives it the form of a Divine Act, and – oh! how My Supreme Goodness delights in seeing that the creature possesses this Divine Act.  To these acts My Eternal Love never says enough; it gives, and gives always, because with these Divine Acts formed by the creature in My Will, My Love cannot limit itself – since they are Divine, it must repay them with Infinite Love and without limits.

“Don’t you yourself see and feel with how much Love I guide you, I accompany you, and many times I reach the point of doing what you do together with you?  And this, in order to give to your acts the value of a Divine Value.  How happy I am in seeing that by virtue of My Will, your acts are Divine, similar to Mine.  There is no more distance between your little love and Mine, between your adoration and Mine, between your prayers and Mine.  Invested by the Light of the Eternal Volition, they lose their finiteness, their human appearances, and acquire the Infinite and the Divine Substance; and transforming, all together, the working of God and of the soul, My Will makes them one.  Therefore, be attentive, and let your flight in My Will be continuous.” …

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 17, 1899 Volume 2

This morning, after receiving Communion, I was saying to my lovable Jesus: “How is it that this virtue of obedience is so impertinent, and sometimes so strong as to reach the point of being capricious.”

And He: “Do you know why this noble Lady Obedience is as you say? Because she gives death to all vices and, naturally, one who has to inflict death upon someone else must be strong and courageous; and if he does not succeed with this, he will use impertinences and caprices. If this is necessary in order to kill the body, which is so fragile, much more so in order to give death to vices and to one’s own passions; in fact, it is so hard that sometimes, while they seem to be dead, they begin to live again. And so this diligent lady is always in motion, and spying continuously. If she sees that the soul raises the slightest difficulty at what is commanded of her, fearing that some vice may begin to live again in her heart, she wages such a war against her and gives her no peace, until the soul prostrates herself at her feet and does, in mute silence, whatever she wants. This is why she is so impertinent and almost capricious, as you say. 

“Ah, yes, there is no true peace without obedience; and if it seems that one may enjoy peace, it is a false peace, because it gets along with one’s own passions, but never with virtues. And one ends up in ruin, because by moving away from obedience, one moves away from Me, who was the King of this noble virtue.

“Moreover, obedience kills one’s own will and pours the Divine in torrents; so much so, that one can say that the obedient soul no longer lives of her will, but of the Divine. Can there ever be a life more beautiful, more holy, than to live of the Will of God Himself? With the other virtues, even the most sublime, there can be love of self, but with obedience – never.”

Jesus continues to want me to act as His mother. He made Himself seen as a most gracious little baby, crying; and to calm His crying, holding Him in my arms, I began to sing. It so happened that when I would be singing, He would stop crying; when I wouldn’t, He would start crying again. I would rather have kept silent on what I was singing – first, because I don’t remember everything, since I was outside of myself, and one can hardly remember all the things that happen; and also because I believe it is nonsense. But lady obedience, who is too impertinent, does not want to give up, and it is enough that one does what she wants, for her to be content even with nonsense. I don’t know, they say that this Lady Obedience is blind, but to me it seems, rather, that she is all eyes, because she looks at the tiniest things, and when one does not do as she says, she becomes so impertinent as to give you no peace. And so now, to have peace from this beautiful Lady Obedience – because, then, she is so good when one does as she says, that whatever ones wants, through her, one obtains – I will say what I remember of my singing:

 “Little Baby, You are little and strong
from You I expect every comfort;
little Baby, gracious and beautiful,
You enamor even the stars;
little Baby, steal my heart so as to fill it with Your Love;
little Baby, tender little one, make me a little baby too;
little Baby, You are a Paradise,
O please! Let me come to delight in Your Eternal Smile.”

Finding myself in my usual state, I was abandoning myself in the arms of the Most Holy Will of God, and my sweet Jesus told me: “My daughter, in my Will you will find not only all of the acts that my Humanity did, in which I intertwined all creatures together, but you will also find all the acts that my dear Mama did which, weaving with Mine, formed one single act.

“As soon as I was conceived in Her womb, She began the weaving with My Acts; and since My Humanity had no other Life, no other food, and no other purpose but the Will of My Father alone which, flowing everywhere, made Me act of each creature so as to give to the Father the rights as Creator on the part of creatures, and to give Myself as Life to all creatures, in the same way, as She began Her intertwining with Me, She too gave back to the Father His Rights as Creator in the name of all, and gave Herself to all creatures. Therefore, all creatures received, together with My Acts, the acts of My Mama as Life.

“Now, in Heaven, She embraces all the glory of each creature; My Will gives Her such glory on the part of each creature that there is no glory which She does not contain, and no glory which does not descend from Her. And since She wove Her works, Her love, Her pains, etc. with Me, now in Heaven She is circumfused with as much glory as were the weavings She did in My Will: this is why She surpasses everything, embraces everything and flows in everything. This is what it means to live in My Will. My beloved Mama could have never received so much glory, if all of her acts had not flown in My Will; acts which constitute Her Queen and crown of all.

“Now I want you in My Will, so that the weaving may not be between two, but among three; My Will wants to expand in order to find all creatures together in one creature. Do you see the great good that will come to you; how much glory you will give Me, and how much good you will do to all?”

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 14, 1912 Volume 11

Finding myself in my usual state, my always adorable Jesus told me: “My daughter, in order for the soul to forget herself, she should do each thing which is necessary for her as if Jesus wanted to do it within her. If she prays, she should say: ‘It is Jesus who wants to pray, and I pray together with Him.’ If she has to work: ‘Jesus wants to work; Jesus wants to walk; Jesus wants to take food. He wants to sleep, He wants to get up, He wants to enjoy Himself...’ and so on for all other things of life - except for error. Only in this way can the soul forget herself; not only will she do everything because I want it, but because I want to do them: they are necessary to Me.” …

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 13, 1933 Volume 32

“… By Living together with My Divine Will she acquires New Life, Divine Ways, Celestial Science, penetration of the most Profound Things.  In sum, as My Fiat is the Teacher of teachers, it is It who Creates the Highest Sciences, and makes things known not veiled, but as they really are.  Therefore, Living together with the creature It does not want to keep her ignorant; It instructs her, It makes her Its Surprises, It recounts to her Its Divine Story, and this Transforms her and renders her capable of receiving Its New Act that My Volition wants to give her.  And in every act that the soul does united with It, she acquires a New Prerogative of Divine Likeness.  By Living together with My Volition the soul becomes refined, embellished, and in Our Creative Hands becomes like suitable canvas in the hands of the painter, that however more beautiful, more fine is the canvas, so much more beautiful becomes the image that He wants to paint on that canvas.  It seems that his brushes and his colors acquire more art, are more skillful, even more because they make the colors come alive over such a very fine canvas.  In fact, because it comes alive, the canvas changes in image and acquires such value as to render itself admired by who knows how many people.  

“Now My Will is more than Divine Painter, and It never tires of giving New Beauty, Sanctity and New Science.  And It remains waiting for an act done together with It in order to enrich it, in order to make Itself known even more, and to make use of Its Divine Brushes in order to elevate her to such Height and Rare Beauty, as to make her be admired by who knows how many generations, in a way that all will call her Beautiful.  And one will feel Happy who has the Good of looking at her, at all the New Acts received by God in virtue of what she has worked in My Volition.  They will extol her, and singing her praises they will make her known as the Most Beautiful Work of My Divine Fiat.  Its wanting to abase Itself to Living with the creature, Its Divine Delirium, is a sign that It wants to do Great, and Worthy of Its Creative Power, things with her.  Therefore Living together with My Fiat is the greatest fortune, and must be the delirium, the vehement passion and ambition of everyone. …”

I was fusing myself in the Most Holy Will, and my sweet Jesus told me: “My daughter, only by one who lives in My Will do I feel as though repaid for Creation, Redemption and Sanctification, and she glorifies Me in the way in which the creature must glorify Me. Therefore these souls will be the gems of My Throne and will take within themselves all the Contentments and the Glory which each Blessed will have for himself alone. These souls will be as though queens around My Throne, and all the Blessed will be around them; and just as the Blessed will be as many suns that will shine in the Celestial Jerusalem, the souls who have lived in My Will will shine in My own Sun. They will be as though circumfused with My Sun, and these souls will see the Blessed from within Me, because it is right that, having lived on earth united with Me, with My Will, as they lived no life of their own, they have a place distinct from all others in Heaven, and they continue in Heaven the life which they lived on earth – completely transformed in Me and immersed in the sea of My Contentments.”

Finding myself in my usual state, I saw my adorable Jesus with a cross in His hand, all full of white pearls. Giving it to me as gift, He placed it on my breast, and it sank into my heart as inside a room. Then He told me: “My daughter, the Cross is a Treasure, and the safest place in which to keep this valuable Treasure is one’s own soul. Or rather, it is a safe place when the soul is disposed to receive this Treasure with patience, with resignation and with the other virtues, because the virtues are as many keys that secure it, so as not to spoil it or expose it to thieves. But if it does not find especially the gold key of patience, this Treasure will find many thieves, who will steal it and spoil it.”

As I was in my usual state, I found myself wandering around churches, making a pilgrimage to Jesus in the Sacrament together with my Guardian Angel.  In one of the churches I said:  "Prisoner of Love, You are here abandoned and alone, and I have come to keep You company.  And while keeping You company I intend to love You for those who offend You, praise You for those who despise You, thank You for those in whom You pour graces, but do not render You the tribute of thanksgiving; console You for those who afflict You, and repair for any offense against You.  In a word, I intend to do for You all that creatures are obliged to do for You, for having remained in the Most Holy Sacrament.  And I intend to repeat this for as many drops of water, for as many fish and grains of sand as are in the sea.”  While I was saying this, all the waters of the sea became present before my mind, and I said within myself:  “My sight cannot grasp the whole vastness of the sea, nor does it know the depth and the weight of those immense waters, but the Lord knows their number, weight and measure.”  And I stayed there, all marveling.  At that moment blessed Jesus told me:  “Silly, silly that you are – why do you marvel so much?  What is difficult and impossible for the creature, is easy and possible, and also natural, for the Creator.  It happens in this as to someone who, looking at millions and millions of coins in the twinkling of an eye, says to himself:  ‘They are innumerable – who can count them?’  But the one who put them in that place tells everything in one word:  they are this many, they are worth this much, they weigh this much.  My daughter, I know how many drops of water I Myself put in the sea, and no one can disperse even a single one of them.  I numbered everything, I weighed everything, I evaluated everything; and so with all the other things.  So, what is the wonder if I know everything?”  On hearing this, every marvel ceased; or rather, I marveled at my silliness.

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 9, 1923 Volume 16

I was fusing myself in the Holy Divine Will, and my sweet Jesus, squeezing me to Himself, started to pray with me, and then He told me: “My daughter, the human will has covered with clouds the whole atmosphere, in such a way that thick darkness hangs over all creatures, and almost all of them walk limping and groping. And every action they do without the connection of the Divine Will, intensifies this darkness and man becomes more blind, because the Light, the Sun of the human will, is the Divine Will. Without It, there is not light for the creature.

“Now, one who works, prays, walks, etc., in My Will, rises above this darkness, and as she works, prays, speaks, piercing these thick clouds, she sends flashes of Light over all the earth, such as to shake those who live down at the bottom of their will, preparing their souls to receive the Light, the Sun of the Divine Will. This is why I care so much that you live in My Will – that you may prepare a Heaven of Light which, sending continuous flashes of Light, may dispel this heaven of darkness that the human will has formed over their heads; in such a way that, possessing the Light of My Will, they may love It, and My Will, loved, may Reign upon earth.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 8, 1926 Volume 19

… Jesus kept silent; but then, as though taken by an irresistible emphasis of love, He added:  “Oh, power of My Will, how great You are!  You alone unite the greatest and highest Being with the littlest and lowest being, making them one.  You alone have the virtue of emptying the creature of all that does not belong to You, to be able to form in her, with Your Reflections, that Eternal Sun which, filling Heaven and earth with Its rays, goes to blend with the Sun of the Supreme Majesty.  You alone have this virtue of communicating the Supreme Strength, in such a way that, with Your Strength, the creature can rise to that single act of God the Creator.  Ah, my daughter, when the creature does not live in the Unity of My Will, she loses the One Strength and remains as though disunited from that Strength that fills Heaven and earth and sustains the whole universe as if it were the littlest feather.  Now, when the soul does not let herself be dominated by My Will, she loses the One Strength in all of her actions, therefore all her acts, not coming out of the same single Strength, remain divided among themselves – love is divided, the action separated, the prayer disjointed.  Being divided, all the acts of the creature are poor, meager, without light; and so patience is poor, charity is weak, obedience is crippled, humility is blind, prayer is mute, sacrifice is without life, without vigor, because since My Will is missing, the one Strength is missing which, uniting everything, gives the same Strength to each act of the creature.  Therefore, they are left not only divided among themselves, but adulterated by the human will, and so each one is left with its own defect. …”

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 7, 1929 Volume 26

[Jesus speaking]

“… Now, when the knowledges about My Fiat will make their way, disposing those who will have the good of knowing them, My more than paternal Goodness, in order to show the excess of My Love, will place My very Humanity, all the good I did, in each creature, at her disposal, in a way that they will feel such Strength and Grace as to let themselves be dominated by My Divine Will.  And My Humanity will be in the midst of the children of My Kingdom, like Heart in their midst, for the decorum and the honor of My Fiat, and as antidote, grace and defense from all the evils that the human will has produced.  The Ardor of My Love that wants It to Reign is such and so great, that I will perform such excesses of Love as to win the most rebellious wills.”

On hearing this, I remained surprised, and as if I wanted to cast a doubt on what Jesus had told me.  And He, resuming His speaking, added:  “My daughter, why do you doubt about it?  Am I perhaps not Master to do what I want and to give Myself as I please to give Myself?  Is My Humanity perhaps not the first firstborn Brother who possessed the Kingdom of My Divine Will?  And, as the first Brother, I have the right to communicate the right to possess It to the other brothers, placing My very Self at their disposal in order to give them a good so great.  

“Am I not the Head of the whole human family, who can make the virtue of the Head flow in their members and make the Vital Act of My Divine Will descend into the members?  And besides, is it perhaps not My Humanity that dwells in you continuously, that gives you such Strength and Grace for wanting to live only of My Will, and makes you feel such peace and happiness, as to eclipse your human will, in a way that it itself feels happy to live as though without life under the empire of My Divine Will?  Therefore, what I need is that they know the knowledges about My Fiat—the rest will come by itself.” …

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 6, 1917 Volume 12

Continuing in my usual state, my always lovable Jesus came; and since I was very afflicted because of the continuous threats of worse chastisements and because of His privations, He told me: “My daughter, be cheered, do not lose heart too much. My Will renders the soul happy, even in the midst of the greatest storms. Even more, she rises up so high that the storms cannot touch her, although she sees them and hears them. The place in which she dwells is not subject to storms, but is always serene, and with a smiling sun, because her origin is in Heaven, her nobility is Divine, her Sanctity is in God - and there she is kept by God Himself. Jealous of the sanctity of this soul who lives in My Will, I keep her in My inmost Heart, and I say: ‘Nobody touch her. My Will is intangible, It is sacred, and all must give honor to My Will’.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 5, 1923 Volume 16

… “As you enter into It [the Divine Will] to emit your thoughts, words, works, steps, reparations, pains, love and thankgivings, My Will will coin all your acts. And they will receive the Divine Image, with the value of Divine Acts, which, being infinite, will be able to make up for all, reach all, and have so much ascendancy over the Divinity as to make this Supreme Will descend upon earth, bringing the goods It contains.

“It will happen as to metal, to gold, to silver. Until the image of the king is minted on it, it cannot be given the value of money; but as soon as it is minted, it acquires value as currency and it circulates throughout the whole kingdom. There is no town, village or important place, in which it does not enjoy its prestige as money, and there is no creature who can live without it… Its metal may be vile or precious – it does not matter. As long as the image of the king is impressed on it, it runs through the whole kingdom, enjoys supremacy over all, and makes itself loved and respected by all. In the same way, everything which the soul does in My Will, since the Divine Image is minted on it, runs through Heaven and earth, has supremacy over all, does not refuse to give itself to whomever wants it, and there is no place in which its beneficial effects are not enjoyed.”

Now, while He was saying this, we prayed together, and Jesus let my intelligence enter His Will. Together, we offered to the Supreme Majesty the homage, the Glory, the submission, the adoration of all created intelligences. At the contact with the Supreme Will, a Divine Image was impressed in the homages and adorations, and they diffused over all created intelligences like many speaking messengers, which placed themselves in order in the Creation; all of them, in relation with the Supreme Will. But who can say what one could see and understand?

My most sweet Jesus added: “My daughter, have you seen? Only by entering My Will, all this can happen. Therefore, continue to let your gazes, your words, your heart and all the rest of you, enter into It, and you will see surprising things.” …

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 4, 1925 Volume 17

After going through various days of total privation of my most sweet Jesus, I kept repeating my sorrowful refrain: “Everything is over for me. Ah, I will never see Him again! I will never again hear His voice, which so much delighted me! Ah, I have been abandoned by the One who formed all my contentment and was Everything to me! What a long martyrdom! What a life without life – without Jesus!”

But while my heart was drowned in pains, my sweet Jesus came out from within my interior, and taking me in His arms, He placed my arms around His neck, and I abandoned my head upon His breast, in an act which expressed that I could not take it anymore. And Jesus, squeezing me tightly to Himself, leaned His knees on my breast, pressing very intensely, and said to me: “My daughter, you must die continuously.” And while he was saying this, He made me share in various pains. Then, assuming a more affable look, added: “My daughter, what do you fear, if the Power of My Will is in you? It is so true that My Will is in you, that in one instant It transformed you into My Pains, and you offered yourself to receive them with love. While you were suffering, you stretched out your arms to embrace My Will; and as you embraced It, everything that lives in My Will – the Angels, the Saints, My Celestial Mama, and the very Divinity – felt the grip of your embrace, and they all ran toward you to embrace you; and in chorus, they said: ‘How pleasing and dear is the embrace of our little exiled, who lives on earth in order to do the Will of God alone, just as we do it in Heaven! She is our joy; she is the new and only feast which comes to us from the earth.’

“Oh, if you knew what it means for a soul to live in My Will! There is no division between her and Heaven. Wherever My Will is, she is. Her acts, her pains, her words, are in act and operative in every place in which My Will is. And since My Will is everywhere, the soul places herself in the order of creation, and through the electricity of the Supreme Will, she is in communication with all created things. Just as the created things are in order and harmony among themselves, each one is the support of the other, and not one of them can move; and if even one thing created by Me moved – may this never be – the Creation would become all upset; there is a secret accord among them, a mysterious force, such that, while all the spheres live in the space, suspended in the air, without any support, by the power of communication which they have among themselves, each thing sustains the other – in the same way, one who does My Will is in communication with all, and is sustained by all the works of her Creator. Therefore, everyone recognizes her, loves her, and offers her the electricity, the secret, in order to live together with them, suspended between Heaven and earth, all sustained only by the power of the Divine and Supreme Will.” 

Divine Will for every day of the year - August 3, 1916 Volume 11

… Then, this morning, I was praying and lamenting to Jesus for He was not answering me, especially because He does not stop chastising, and I said to Him: “Why pray if You do not want to answer me? On the contrary, You tell me that the evils will get worse.” And He: “My daughter, good is always good. Even more, you must know that each prayer, each reparation, each act of love, any holy thing that the creature does, is one more paradise that she acquires. So, the simplest holy act will be one more paradise; one act less, a paradise less. In fact, every good act comes from God, and therefore in every good act the soul takes God; and since God contains Infinite, Innumerable, Eternal, Immense Joys - so many that the very Blessed will not arrive at enjoying them all throughout all Eternity - it is no wonder, then, that since each good act acquires God, God is almost bound to substitute them with as many contentments. So, if the soul suffers even distractions for love of Me, in Heaven her intelligence will have more light and will enjoy as many more paradises for as many times as she has sacrificed her intelligence; and so much more will she comprehend God. If she suffers coldness for love of Me, so many paradises will she enjoy of the variety of contentments which are present in My Love; if darkness, so many more contentments in My Inaccessible Light; and so with all the rest. This is what one prayer more or one less means.”
