Divine Will for every day of the year - April 23, 1930 Volume 28

Then, I continued my round in the Creation, and my always lovable Jesus added: “My daughter, see what order there is in the creation of the whole universe: there are heavens, stars, suns—all ordered. Much more so in creating man; Our Divine Being stretched out the order of Our Divine Qualities like many heavens in the depth of his soul. So, We stretched out in him the Heaven of Love, the Heaven of Our Goodness, the Heaven of Our Sanctity, of Our Beauty, and so on. And after We stretched out the order of the heavens of Our Divine Qualities, Our Fiat, in the vault of these heavens, constituted Itself Sun of the soul, that, with Its light and heat, reflecting Itself in him, was to grow and preserve Our Divine Life in the creature. And just as Our Divine Qualities point out Our Supreme Being, so do these heavens, stretched out in man, point out that he is Our dwelling. Who can tell you the way—the love with which We delighted in creating man? Oh! if he knew who he is, what he possesses, oh! how he would esteem himself more, and would be attentive not to stain his soul, and would love He who created him with so much love and grace.”
