Divine Will for every day of the year - February 8, 1905 Volume 6

Continuing in my poor state of privation and of unspeakable bitterness – at the most, He makes Himself seen in silence – this morning He told me:  “My daughter, the characteristics of My children are:  love for the Cross, love for the Glory of God, and love for the Glory of the Church — to the point of laying down their lives.  One who does not have these characteristics, in vain calls himself My son; one who dares to say it, is a liar and a traitor who betrays God and himself.  Take a look into yourself, to see whether you have them.”  And He disappeared.
