[Jesus speaking] “Now, you must know the great good which you enclose by enclosing within yourself all that My Will does in the Creation. While you follow Its acts, you receive the reflection of the heavens, and the heavens are formed and extended in you; you receive the reflection of the sun, and the sun is formed in you; you receive the reflection of the sea, and the sea is formed in you. You receive the reflection of the wind, of the flower, of all nature—in sum, of everything; and, oh! how the heavens that protect, the sun that illuminates, warms and fecundates, the sea that inundates and forms its waves of love, of mercy, of grace and of strength for the good of all, the wind that purifies and brings rain over the souls burned by passions, the flower of the perpetual adoration to your Creator, arise from the depth of your soul. This is why it is the prodigy of prodigies; the living in My Will is the true triumph of the Supreme Fiat—because the soul becomes the reflector of her Creator and of all Our works….”
From the Calendar--November 9, 1925 Volume 18
I was fusing myself in the Holy Divine Volition according to my usual way, to then do my adoration to my crucified Good; and since, more than once, while doing my acts in the Supreme Volition, I had been caught by sleep—which would never happen before—I had not completed the first thing, nor done the adoration. So I said to myself: “First I will do the adoration to the crucifix, and then, if I am not caught by sleep, I will fuse myself in the Divine Volition to do my usual acts.”
But while I was thinking this, my sweet Jesus came out from within my interior, and placing His face close to mine, told me: “My daughter, I want you to fuse yourself in My Will first, coming before the Supreme Majesty to reorder all human wills in the Will of their Creator, to repair with My own Will for all the acts of the wills of creatures opposed to Mine. Will came out of Us in order to divinize the creature, and Will do We want. And when this Will is rejected by them, to do their own will, it is the most direct offense to the Creator—it is to deny all the goods of Creation and to move away from His likeness. And do you think it is trivial that, fusing yourself in My Will, you place the whole of this Will of Mine as though on your lap, which, though it is one, brings Its divinizing act to each creature; and reuniting all these acts of My Will together, you bring them before the Supreme Majesty, to requite them with your will together with Mine, with your love, redoing all the acts opposite those of creatures, and you press this same My Will of Mine to surprise the creatures once again with more repeated acts, that they may know It, receive It within themselves as prime act, love It, and fulfill this Holy Will in everything? The adoration of My wounds—more than one does it for Me; but giving Me back the rights of My Will, as the prime act which I did toward man—this, no one does for Me. Therefore, it is your duty to do it, as you have a special mission about My Will. And if sleep catches you while you are doing it, our Celestial Father will look at you with love, in seeing you sleep in His arms—seeing His little daughter, who, even while sleeping, holds on her little lap all the acts of His Will, to repair them, requite them in love, and give to each act of Our Will the honor, the sovereignty, and the right that befits It. Therefore, first fulfill your duty, and then, if you can, you will also do the adoration of My wounds.”
May Jesus be always thanked. Last night, by His goodness, I did both one and the other.
From the Calendar--November 8, 1921 Volume 13
And my Jesus told me: “Do you see what it means to live in My Will? To multiply My Life as many times as one wants; to repeat all the good which My Life contains.”
After this, I was saying to my Jesus: “My Life, I enter into Your Will to be able to extend myself in everyone and to everything—from the first to the last thought, from the first to the last word, from the first to the last action and step that were done, are done, and will be done. I want to seal everything with Your Will, so that You may receive from everything the glory of Your sanctity, of Your love, of Your power; and all that is human may remain covered, hidden, marked by Your Volition, so that nothing—nothing human may remain, in which You do not receive divine glory.”
Now, while I was doing this and other things, my sweet Jesus came all festive, accompanied by innumerable Blessed, and said: “All of Creation says to Me: ‘My glory, My glory!’”
And all the Saints responded: “Behold, O Lord, we give You divine glory for everything!” An echo could be heard from all sides, saying: “For everything we give You love and glory!”
From the Calendar--November 7, 1937 Volume 35
My sweet Jesus, surprising me with His little visit, all goodness and tenderness told me: “My daughter, I too feel the love-need of making you see the order that these truths will have and the good they will produce.
“These truths on My Divine Will will form the day of My FIAT in the midst of the creatures. According to their knowledge, this day will be rising. So, as they begin to know the first truths which I have manifested to you, a most splendid dawn will arise—provided that they will have good will and the disposition to make their own life of these truths. However, these truths will also have the virtue of disposing the creatures, and of giving the light to many blind who don’t know My Will or love It.
“Then, once the dawn is risen, they will feel invested by a celestial peace, and more strengthened in the good. They, themselves, will yearn to know more truths, which will form the beginning of the day of My Divine Will. This beginning of the day will increase the Light and the Love; all things will turn into good for the creatures; passions will lose the power to make them fall into sin. One can say that they will feel the first order of the divine good, which will facilitate their actions for them. They will feel a strength with which they can do everything, since its primary virtue is exactly this: to inject in the soul a transformation of her nature in good. So, feeling the great good of the beginning of the day, they will long for the day to advance. They will then know more truths which will form the full daylight.
“In this full daylight they will vividly feel the Life of My Will within themselves—Its joy and happiness, Its operative and creative virtue within them. They will feel the possession of My very Life, becoming the bearers of My Divine Will. The full daylight will provoke in them so much yearning to know more truths that, once known, they will form the full midday. In this, the creature will no longer feel alone: between her and My Will there will be no more separation. What My Will will do, she will do as well—operating together. All will be her own by right - Heaven, earth, and God Himself.
“Do you see then, how noble, divine and precious will be the scope of these truths which I made you write on My Divine Will in order to form the day of the creature? For some they will form the dawn; for some the beginning of the day; for some others the full daylight and, lastly, the full midday. These truths will form, according to their knowledge, the different categories of the souls who will live in My Will. One knowledge more, or one less, will make then rise or stay in the different categories. Knowledge will be the hand to boost them up to the higher categories - it will be the very life of the fullness of My Will within them. Therefore, I can say that with these truths I formed the day for whoever wants to live in My Divine Will - a day of Heaven, greater than Creation itself; not of sun or stars, because each truth has the virtue of creating our Life in the creature. Oh, how this surpasses the whole of Creation!”
From the Calendar--November 6, 1932 Volume 31
After this, I was thinking of what is written at the beginning of this chapter – that is, that one who operates in the Divine Will operates in eternity, one who operates outside of It operates in time. And I thought to myself: “And why this great difference?”
And my Highest Love, Jesus, added: “My daughter, it is easy to comprehend it. Suppose you were given a metal of gold, with which, by working it, you would form many beautiful objects of gold. But if instead of gold you were given a metal of copper, of iron, you would not be able to change the copper and the iron into gold metal, therefore you would make objects of copper or of iron. Now, compare the objects of iron with those of gold: what is the difference in their value? Yet, it took you the same amount of time to work them, you made similar objects, but because of the difference in the metal, those of gold surpass in a surprising way, in value, in beauty, in fineness, those of iron. Now, for one who operates, even what is good, with his human will, since he finds himself in time to cross his way, it can be said that everything he does are temporary works, subject to a thousand miseries. They will always be human works of minimum value, because they lack the golden thread of light of My Will. On the other hand, one who operates in It will have the golden thread in his power; not only this, but he will have his Creator operating in his act; he will have, not time, but eternity in his power. Therefore, because of the mere difference between Divine Will and human will, there is no comparison that can stand between one and the other. The living in My Will is precisely this: My Will holds the prime and operating act in the creature. It acts like a teacher who wants the essay he has assigned to his pupil to be developed. He himself gives him the paper, puts the pen in his hand, places his own hand over the hand of the disciple, and develops the essay, as the hand of the teacher and that of the disciple write together. Now, should it not be said that the teacher was operating, and has placed his own science, his own beautiful handwriting into that essay, in such a way that no one will be able to find a shadow of defect? However, the pupil has not moved, he has undergone the work of the teacher, he has let his hand be guided with no resistance; on the contrary, he was happy in seeing the beautiful ideas, the precious concepts, into which he felt himself being enraptured. Now, should it not be said that the fortunate disciple possesses the value, the merit, of the work of his teacher? The same happens to one who lives in My Will: the creature must undergo the act that My Volition wants to do, she must not put herself aside; and My Will must place what is needed and befitting to Its divine acts; and Our goodness is so great that We make her the possessor of Our own acts. On the other hand, to one who does not live in Our Will would happen as when the teacher assigns the essay to his disciple, but does not make himself the actor of the essay of the disciple – he leaves it up to his freedom, in a way that he could make some mistakes, and he does it according to his small capacity, because he does not feel, over and within himself, either the capacity or the operating act of his teacher. And the essay is nothing other than Our grace, which never leaves the creature, even in the little good that she does; and according to the dispositions of the creature, it offers itself either as operating act or as assisting act, because there is no good that is done which is not helped and sustained by divine grace.”
From the Calendar--November 5, 1923 Volume 16
Now, while I was pouring out my pain with Jesus, He made Himself seen in my interior, and the sacramental veils formed as though a mirror, and Jesus was inside of it—alive and real. And my sweet Jesus told me: “My daughter, this mirror is the accidents of the bread which keep Me imprisoned within them. I form My Life in the host, but the host does not give Me anything—not one affection, not a heartbeat, not the littlest ‘I love you.’ It is as though dead for Me. I remain alone, without a shadow of requital, and therefore My Love is almost impatient to go out, to shatter this glass, descending into hearts in order to find in them that requital which the host does not know how to give Me, nor can it do so. But do you know where I find My true requital? In the soul who lives in My Will. As I descend into her heart, immediately I consume the accidents of the host, because I know that more noble accidents, more dear to Me, are ready to imprison Me, so as not to let Me go out of that heart, which will give Me, not only life within itself—but life for life. I will not be alone, but with My most faithful company. We will be two hearts palpitating together, we will love united, our desires will be one. So, I remain in her, and there I live Life, alive and real, just as I do in the Most Holy Sacrament. But do you know what these accidents are, which I find in the soul who does My Will? They are her acts done in My Volition which, more than accidents, lay themselves around Me and imprison Me, but inside a noble and divine prison, not a dark one, because her acts done in My Will, more than sun, illuminate her and warm her. Oh! how happy I feel to form My real Life in her, because I feel as if I were inside My Celestial Royal Palace. Look at Me inside your heart - how happy I am, how I delight and feel the purest joys.”
From the Calendar--November 4, 1935 Volume 33
My abandonment in the Divine Volition continues, but the more I walk within Its sea, the more I feel the need of Its life in order to continue to live; and having received Holy Communion, I felt the need to love Him. But my poor “nothing” did not have sufficient love in order to love He who so much loves me; my love was so scarce, that I felt ashamed in the face of the love of Jesus, who had so much of it, that its boundaries cannot be seen. Yet, I wanted to love Him. And my sweet Jesus, encouraging me, told me: “My blessed daughter, do not lose heart, one who lives in my Will keeps her ‘nothing’ within the All; and wanting to love Me, she loves Me with my own love. I find in it My powerful, wise, attractive, immense love, in such a way that this ‘nothing’ of the creature takes Me from all sides, and I feel bound by her love, which is My own love, in such a way that I cannot escape from her; and now she wounds Me; now she darts through Me, to the point of making Me feel faint; and I feel the need to rest in the arms of her love.
“But this is not all. One who lives in My Will possesses your Jesus in a perennial way, because My Will has the virtue of forming, raising and feeding My life in the creature; and as she receives Me in the Sacrament, I find another Jesus – that is, Myself, loving Me, adoring Me, thanking Me, repairing Me. I can say that I repeat the great miracle I did in instituting the Sacrament of the Eucharist, when I communicated Myself – that is, your Jesus received Jesus. Receiving Myself was the greatest honor, the satisfaction most complete, the requital of the heroism of My love; nothing I lacked of everything that was due to Me in My Sacramental Life – a God matched God Himself. I could say that what I gave was given back to Me. Now, for one who lives in My Will it is impossible not to possess her Jesus, therefore, as she receives Me in the Sacrament, I can say: ‘I am going to find Myself in the creature; and I find that which I want – My Life, which, unifying with hers, forms one single life. I find My royal dwelling, I find the love that always loves Me, I find the requital for the great sacrifice of everything I do and suffer in My Sacramental Life.’ My excessive love leads Me with an irresistible force to repeat the miracle of receiving Myself; but I can only do this in the creature in whom My Divine Will reigns.”
From the Calendar--November 3, 1936 Volume 34
[Jesus speaking] “Therefore, listen to the greatest excess of the Love of my Will: as soon as the creature decides with immutable firmness to want to live of my Will, letting It reign and dominate within her, Our infinite goodness is so great, and so is Our Love, which knows not how to resist a true decision from the creature – more so, since It does not want to see acts dissimilar from Ours in her – listen to what It does: It covers with my Will everything she has done up to that point, It molds them, It transforms them with Its light, in such a way that It sees everything through the prodigy of Its transforming Love – that everything is Its Will in the creature; and with Love, fully Divine, It continues to form Its life and Its acts in the creature. Is this not an excessive and astounding Love of my Volition; and together with this, Its making everyone decide – even the most ungrateful ones – to let my Will live in them, knowing that It wants to put everything aside and cover and make up for all that is lacking in them of my Will?
“This also says the absolute Will of Ours, of wanting to reign in the midst of creatures, as It does not want to look at anything, or at what the creature lacks, wanting to give to her, not as recompense, checking on whether she deserves it or not, but as a free gift from Our great generosity, and as the fulfillment of Our own Will – and to fulfill Our Will is everything for Us.”
From the Calendar--November 2, 1911 Volume 10
Continuing in my usual state, blessed Jesus came for just a little, and as I lamented to Him because He was coming only in passing and did not give me time to tell Him anything about the so many needs that exist—with the addition that when He comes, now He clasps me tightly, now He transforms me so much within His Will as to leave me not even a little space to be able to plead for His creatures—Jesus told me: “My daughter, you always want to know it. I tell you: things will be grave—extremely grave, and this is the whole reason; and if I played Myself in intimacy with you, you would bind Me and would come up with something of yours; rather, you must have patience, and let Me bind you for now.”
Then He took a heart of light and played it in my interior, adding: “You will love, you will speak, you will think, you will repair—you will do everything by means of this heart.”
From the Calendar--November 1, 1915 Volume 11
[Jesus speaking] “My daughter, give Me rest; let Me pour out My love. …”
As He was saying this, He kissed me again and again, telling game: “I love you, but with an eternal Love; I love you, but with an immense Love; I love you, but with an incomprehensible Love; I love you, but with a Love that will have no limits and no end; I love you, but with a Love that you will never be able to match…”
Who can say all the titles with which Jesus wa saying that He loved me? And for every title which He said, He waited for my answer. Not knowing what to say, and not having sufficient titles to match Him, I told Him: “My Life, You know that I have nothing; and whatever I do, I take from You, and I leave it to You again, so that my things, remaining in You, may have continuous action and life in You, while I remain always a nothing. So, I take Your Love, I make It my own and I tell You: ‘I love You with an eternal and immense Love; with a Love that has no limits and no ends, and that is equal to yours.’” And I kissed Him again and again. As I kept saying, “I love You,” Jesus became calm, took rest, and disappeared.

After this, I felt a little suffering, and I was coughing loudly. At every fit of coughing I asked that the Divine Will might come to reign upon earth. And my sweet Jesus, all tenderness, squeezed me tightly in His arms, telling me: “My daughter, I knew that you would have asked for My Will at every fit of your coughing, and I felt My Heart being wounded—bursting of love. I felt as if I were receiving, in your coughing, My immensity, that wrapped Me and asked Me for My Will, for My power and infinity, that made everybody ask for My Will to reign; to the extent that I Myself was forced to say: ‘My Will, come to reign. Do not delay any longer!’ I feel such violence that I just do and say what the creature does and says.
“I want you to ask for My Will in your sufferings, in the food you eat, in the water you drink, in the work you do—in sleep. I want you to commit your breath and heartbeat to ask that My Will may come and reign. In this way, everything will be an opportunity for you to ask for My Will—even the sun that fills your eyes, the wind that blows upon you, the sky that lays over your head… Everything must be an occasion for you to ask me for My Will to reign in the midst of the creatures. By doing this, you will place many pledges in My hands—the first of which being the whole of your being, so that you don’t even move without asking for My Will to be known and desired by all.”
From the Calendar--October 30, 1922 Volume 14
Continuing in my usual state, my always adorable Jesus came, and plunging me into the immense Light of His Most Holy Will, told me: “My daughter, look at the prodigies of the creature operating in My Will. As she enters into My Will and thinks, prays, works… she rises with Me. And since I am voice without word, My voice is formed and reaches each heart according to its own needs, and in many different ways and languages which are in the creatures, in such a way that all can understand Me. I am work without hands, and therefore I am work of each one; I am step without feet, in such a way that wherever I go I find Myself in act. In the same way, the soul, by operating in My Will, becomes voice without word, work without hands, step without feet, and I feel her flowing in My voice, in My works, and in My steps—I feel her everywhere. And as I feel her always together with Me, I no longer feel lonely; and since I love the company of the creature very much, taken by love for her, I divinize her, I enrich her, and I give her such graces as to astonish Heaven and earth.”
From the Calendar--October 29, 1926 Volume 20
[Jesus speaking] “Now, after I created everything, I formed the nature of man with My own creative hands; and as I formed the bones, extended the nerves, formed the heart, so did I centralize My Love. And after I clothed him with flesh, forming as though the most beautiful statue that no other artisan could ever make, I looked at him, and I loved him so much that, unable to contain My Love, it overflowed; and breathing on him, I infused life in him.
“But We were not content. In an excess of Love, the Sacrosanct Trinity wanted to endow him, giving him intellect, memory and will, and according to his capacity of creature, We enriched him with all the particles of Our Divine Being. The whole of the Divinity was intent on loving man and on pouring Itself into him. From the very first instant of his life he felt all the strength of Our Love, and from the depth of his heart, he expressed with his own voice, love for his Creator.
“Oh! How happy We felt in hearing Our work, the statue made by Us, speaking, loving Us—and with perfect love. It was the reflection of Our Love that came out of him. This love had not been contaminated by his will, and therefore his love was perfect, because he possessed the fullness of Our Love. Until then, of all the things created by Us, not one thing had said to Us that it loved Us. Now, in hearing that man loved Us, Our joy, Our contentment, was so great, that as the fulfillment of Our feast, We constituted him king of all the universe, and the most beautiful jewel of Our creative hands. How beautiful man was in the first times of his creation. He was Our reflection, and these reflections gave him so much beauty as to enrapture Our Love, and render him perfect in all of his acts: perfect was the glory he gave to his Creator; perfect his adoration, his love, his works. His voice was so harmonious as to resound in the whole creation, because he possessed the Divine harmony, and the harmony of that Fiat that had given him life.”
From the Calendar--October 28, 1928 Volume 25
I was continuing my round in the Divine Volition, to follow all of Its acts; and my sweet Jesus, making Himself felt in my interior, told me: “My daughter, all that has been done by Our divinity, as much in Creation as in Redemption, and Sanctification, has not all been absorbed by the creature, but is all in My Divine Will, in waiting, to give itself to creatures. If you could see everything in My Divine Fiat, you would find an army of acts of Ours, that came out of Us to be given to creatures; but because Our Will does not reign, they have neither the space in which to put them, nor the capacity to receive them. And this Divine militia has been waiting for as long as twenty centuries to place itself in office of exercise, so as to bring to creatures the gifts, the clothing, the joys and the Divine weapons that each of Our acts possesses, in order to form together with them one single Divine army—a celestial militia.
… “This is why I do nothing but make you sip, continuously, everything that was done by Us and that is done in Creation, Redemption, and Sanctification—so as to be able to say once again, as I did on the Cross: ‘I have consummated everything—I have nothing left to do in order to redeem man.’
“So shall My Will repeat: ‘I have consummated it in this creature, in a way that all Our acts have been enclosed in her—I have nothing left to add. I have consummated everything, so that man might be restored and the Kingdom of My Divine Will may have Its life and Its regime on earth and It does in Heaven.’”
From the Calendar--October 27, 1929 Volume 27
[Jesus speaking] “Such is the state My Divine Will was and is in: until man surrenders his will in Mine, Mine cannot cast Its principle of life in the human will, the fusion of one with the other cannot take place, the creatures will always be creature without the likeness and the life of her Creator in the depth of her soul, that only My Divine Fiat can form. Therefore, there will always be dissimilarity, distance, even though My Divine Volition illuminates it and communicates to it Its admirable effects out of Its goodness and liberality, and by the effect of the power and immensity that It possesses by Its own nature. More so since, by sinning, by doing his human will, Adam not only formed the woodworm in the root of the tree of humanity, but he added the graft to it—a graft that communicated all the bad humors that in the course of the centuries the graft of Adam would produce in the tree of humanity.
… “The many truths I have manifested to you about My Divine Fiat are sips of life, some of which water, some cultivate, some increase the humors for the tree of humanity grafted by Me. Therefore, if the life of My Divine Fiat has entered into the tree of My Humanity and has formed the graft, there is all the reason to hope that My Kingdom will have Its scepter, Its just dominion and Its command in the midst of creatures. Therefore, pray and do not doubt.”
From the Calendar--October 26, 1931 Volume 29
[Jesus speaking] “My daughter, see how all the acts I did in redeeming man, and even the miracles I performed during My public life, had no other purpose but to call back the Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat into the midst of creatures; and in the act of doing them, I asked My Celestial Father to make It known and to restore It in the midst of the human generations. If I gave sight to the blind, My first act was to put to flight the darkness of the human will—the primary cause of the blindness of the soul and of the body, so that the light of My Will might illuminate the souls of many blind, and they might obtain the sight to look at My Will in order to love It, and their bodies also might be exempt from losing the sight.
“If I gave hearing to the deaf, first I asked My Father that they might acquire the hearing to hear the voices, the knowledges, the prodigies of My Divine Will, so that It might enter into their hearts as the way in order to dominate them, and there might be no more deaf in the world—either in the soul or in the body. Also in the dead I resurrected, I asked that souls might rise again in My Eternal Will—even those that were putrefied, and made more than cadavers by the human will. And when I took the ropes to drive the profaners out of the temple, it was the human will that I was driving out, so that Mine might enter, reigning and dominating, and they might be truly rich in their souls and no longer subject to natural poverty. And even when, triumphant, I entered into Jerusalem, in the midst of the triumph of the crowds, surrounded with honor and glory, it was the triumph of My Will that I established in the midst of the peoples.
“There was no act I did while being on earth in which I did not place My Will as Prime Act to be established once again in the midst of creatures, because that was the thing I most cared for. If it were not so, or if I did not do so—if in everything I worked and suffered I did not have the Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat as Prime Act to be restored in the midst of creatures—My coming upon earth would have brought a half good to the generations—not a complete one, and the glory of My Celestial Father would not have been completely reintegrated by Me…”

Oh, Power! Oh, sweet enchantment of the Eternal Volition! How admirable you are! And so I would want everyone to murmur together with me, and I prayed the Sovereign Queen to give me the murmuring of Her love, of Her kisses, so as to give them back to Jesus, because I had received Communion and I felt that, in order to please Jesus, I wanted to give Him the kisses of HIs Mama.
And my always lovable Jesus, moving and making himself felt in my interior, told me: “My daughter, everything that the Queen of Heaven did is all in that Divine Fiat that She had the glory, the honor to possess. It can be said that all of Her acts are enveloped within the endless Sea of the Divine Volition, and swim in It like the fish swim in the sea; and the soul who lives in It makes arise not only all the acts of My Celestial Mama, but she makes arise again, and puts in the field, all the works of her Creator. Only one who ives in My Will can sit at the divine table, can open all His treasures, can enter into the sacrarium of the most intimate secrets of the divine hiding places, and, as the owner, takes them and gives them back to her Creator.”
From the Calendar--October 24, 1905 Volume 6
While considering my misery, the weakness of human nature, I felt I was an object so very abominable to myself, and I imagined how much more abominable I am before God; and I said to myself: “Lord, how ugly the human nature has become.” Now, coming for just a little, He told me: “Nothing has come out of My hands which is not good; on the contrary, I created the human nature beautiful and striking, and if the soul sees it as muddy, rotten, weak, abominable, this serves the human nature like manure serves the earth. One who does not understand what it is all about, would say: ‘This one is crazy, for he smears the earth with this filth’; while one who understands, knows that that filth serves to fecundate the earth, to make the plants grow, and to render the fruits more beautiful and tasty. So, I created the human nature with these miseries to reorder in it the order of all virtues; otherwise it would remain without the exercise of true virtues.” Then I saw in my mind the human nature as though full of holes, and in these holes there was rot, mud; and from within them branches loaded with flowers and fruits were coming out. So I comprehended that everything is in the use we make, even of miseries themselves.

…I was continuing my round in the Divine Will, brining myself into Eden, so as to be present when the Divine Majesty, having formed the beautiful statue of man, was giving life to it, breathing over it with Its omnipotent breath, so that I might glorify my Creator in an act so solemn, and love Him, adore Him, and thank Him for a love so excessive and overflowing toward man.
From the Calendar--October 22, 1933 Volume 32
I felt little, little, so much as to not know how to move a step, and having received Holy Communion, I felt the need, being little, of taking refuge in the arms of Jesus in order to tell Him: “I love You, I love You very much,” not knowing how to say anything else, being such a rather ignorant one.
But my sweet Jesus waited that I would tell Him more, and I added: “Jesus, I love You together with the Love of our celestial Mama.”
And Jesus told me: “How sweet, refreshing, it is to Me to feel Myself loved together with the love of the daughter and of our Mama. I feel Her maternal tendernesses, Her outpourings of love, Her chaste embraces, Her ardent kisses that, pouring themselves into the daughter, Mama and daughter love Me, they kiss Me, and they clasp Me in their arms with a single embrace. To find together with My celestial Mama the daughter who wants to love Me, and she loves Me as My Mama loves Me, are My most dear delights, My outpourings of love, and I find the most welcome exchange for so many excesses of My love. But, tell Me, together with who else do you want to love Me?”
And He was silent, waiting that I would tell Him together with someone else that I wanted to love Him.
And I, almost a little embarrassed, added: “My Divine Jesus, I want to love You together with the Father and the Holy Spirit.”
But it seemed that He was not yet content.
And I: “I want to love You together with all the Angels and Saints.”
And He: “And with who else?”
“With all the wayfarers even to the last creature who will exist on the earth. I want to bring You everyone and everything, even the sky, the sun, the wind, the sea, in order to love You together with everyone.”
And Jesus all love, because it seemed that He could not contain the flames, added: “My daughter, here is My heaven in the creature: the Sacrosanct Trinity who cedes Its Love in order to love Me together with her. The Angels and Saints who compete to cede their love in order to love Me together with her. This is the great act, to bring everyone into the all that is God, and the all into everyone. Your littleness, your infant ways in My Divine Will, embrace everyone and everything. You want to give Me everything, even the adorable Trinity Itself, and since you are little, no one wants to deny you anything, rather they unite themselves with you and they love together with the little tiny one. And by bringing Me everyone into the all, and by loving Me, you diffuse the all into everyone. My love being bond of union and of inseparability, I find everything in the soul: My paradise, My works, and everything. And I an say: ‘Nothing is lacking to Me, neither heaven, nor My celestial Mama, nor the cortege of the Angels and Saints; all are with Me, and all love Me.’ These are the stratagems and loving industries of the one who loves Me, and who calls everyone; she asks for love from everyone in order to love Me and make Me loved by everyone.”
