From the Calendar--July 14, 1907 Volume 8

Continuing in my usual state, blessed Jesus came for a little while, and without thinking, I asked: “Lord, yesterday I went to confession; if I had died, since confession remits sins, would You not have brought me straight to Heaven?”

And He: "My daughter, it is true that confession remits sins, but the surest and most certain thing to be exempt from Purgatory is love. Love must be the predominant passion in the soul. Love — her thought, her word, her movements... everything, everything must be enveloped by this love. In this way, finding her all love, the Uncreated Love absorbs the created love within Itself. In fact, Purgatory does nothing but fill the voids of love that are present in the soul; and once It has filled these voids, It sends her to Heaven. But if these voids are not there, it is not something that belongs to Purgatory."
