Divine Will for every day of the year - August 2, 1925 Volume 17
I was praying and fusing myself in the Holy Divine Will. I wanted to wander everywhere, up to the Heavens, in order to find that Supreme “I love you” which is not subject to any interruption. I wanted to make it my own, so that I too might have an “I love you” which is never interrupted, and which might echo the Eternal “I love you”; and by possessing the source of the true “I love you” within me, I might have an “I love you” for each one and for all — for each motion, for each act, for each breath, for each heartbeat, and for each “I love you” of my Jesus Himself. And while I seemed to reach the womb of the Eternal One, making Their “I love you” my own, I kept repeating, everywhere and upon each thing, a lullaby of “I love you’s” to my Supreme Lord. Now, while I was doing this, my thought interrupted my “I love you”, telling me: “What are you doing? You could be doing something else! And then, what is your “I love you”? How special could this “I love you” of yours really be?’
And my sweet Jesus, as though moving hurriedly in my interior, told me: “What are you saying? How special is for Me the “I love you” directed to Me?! My daughter, the “I love you” is everything! The “I love you” is love, it is veneration, it is esteem, it is heroism, it is sacrifice, it is trust toward the one to whom it is directed. The “I love you” is to possess the One who encloses the “I love you”. The “I love you” is a little word, but it weighs as much as Eternity! The “I love you” encloses everything, involves everyone; it diffuses itself, it restricts itself, it rises up high, it descend down to the bottom, it impresses itself everywhere, and it never stops.
What, my daughter! How special can your “I love you” really be?! Its origin is eternal. In the “I love you” the Celestial Father generated Me, and in the “I love you” the Holy Spirit proceeded. In the “I love you” the Eternal FIAT made the whole creation, and in the “I love you” It forgave guilty man and redeemed him. Therefore, in the “I love you” the soul finds everything in God, and God finds everything in the soul. This is why the value of the “I love you” is infinite, it is full of life and of energy; it never tires, it surpasses everything and triumphs over everything. And so, this “I love you” directed to Me - I want to see it and hear it on your lips, in your heart, in the flying of your thoughts, in the drops of your blood, in the pains and in the joys, in the food you take – in everything. The life of my “I love you” must be long – long within you, and my FIAT which reigns in you will place on it the seal of the Divine “I love you”.” …
