Now, while I was thinking of this, my sweet Jesus came out from within my interior, leaned His head upon my shoulder, and sustained me with His arms to give me strength, for I was so exhausted that I felt myself dying. And, all goodness, He said to me: “My daughter, do you not know that there is a communion which is eternal, so great, and not subject to either diminishing or being consumed? Its veils, which hide it in the midst of creatures, are not subject to perishing like the veils of the Sacramental Host. It gives itself in every instant, at each breath, at each heartbeat and in all circumstances. Even more, one must be always with one’s mouth open to be able to receive them all—that is, with the will of always wanting to receive this communion so great and continuous which, as much as it gives itself, it is not subject to either diminishing or being consumed. Otherwise, many times they remain outside of the soul, without entering into her.

“You have already understood what this communion so great and continuous is: It is My Divine Fiat, which flows as life within your soul; as heat to fecundate you and to make you grow; as food to nourish you. It flows in the blood of your veins, in the beating of your heart—in everything; It is always in the act of giving Itself to you, if you just want to receive It. It would drown you with communions, so many It wants to give you. With reason, with justice and by right, the communion of My Will was to be without limits and not subject to being consumed, because It is origin, means and end of the creature, and therefore she was to be able to receive It, in such a way that It could never—never be lacking to her. In fact, something that is origin, means and end must be in continuous act of giving itself, and of being received. If it were not so, her origin of living and the means to sustain herself would be lacking for the poor creature; and she would lose the end that she must reach. Therefore, My infinite Wisdom could never allow that the communion of My Will be limited for them. …”

Then, clasping me and kissing me, He told me: “My beautiful daughter—but beautiful of My own beauty, you afflict yourself because of the things they say? Do not afflict yourself. Ask Father B., poor child of mine, how much he suffered because of Me from his superiors, from his brothers and from others, to the point of declaring him a fool, an enchanter, and of making it a duty for themselves to penalize him. And what was his crime? Love! Feeling ashamed of their lives compared to his, they waged war on him, and still do. Ah! how costly is the crime of love! Love costs Me much, and much it costs My dear children! But I love him very much, and because of what he has suffered, I have given him Myself as reward, and I dwell in him. Poor son of Mine, they don’t leave him alone; they spy on him everywhere, which they don’t do to others—to find, who knows, some matter on which to correct him and mortify him. But since I am with him, I render their arts vain. Give him courage, but—oh! how terrible will be the judgment I will make on those who dare to mistreat My dear children!”

From the Calendar--January 18, 1928 Volume 23

After this, I was thinking:  “What will be the utility of these writings on the Divine Will?”  And my highest and only Good, Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:  “My daughter, all of My works hold hands, and this is the sign that they are My works—that one does not oppose the other; on the contrary, they are so bound among themselves, that they sustain one another.  This is so true that, having to form My chosen people, from which and within which the future Messiah was to be born, from that same people I formed the priesthood, which instructed the people and prepared them for the great good of Redemption.  I gave them laws, manifestations and inspirations, upon which the Sacred Scriptures were formed, called the Bible; and all were intent on the study of It.  Then, with My coming upon earth, I did not destroy Sacred Scriptures; on the contrary, I supported them; and My Gospel, which I announced, opposed them in nothing; on the contrary, they sustained each other in a admirable way.  And in forming the new nascent Church, I formed the new priesthood, which does not detach itself either from Sacred Scriptures or from the Gospel.  All are intent upon them in order to instruct the peoples; and it can be said that anyone who did not want to draw from this salutary fount does not belong to Me, because these are the basis of My Church and the very life with which the peoples are formed.

“Now, that which I manifest on My Divine Will, and which you write, can be called ‘the Gospel of the Kingdom of the Divine Will.’  In nothing does It oppose either Sacred Scriptures or the Gospel which I announced while being on earth; on the contrary, It can be called the support of one and of the other.  And this is why I allow and I call priests to come—to read the Gospel, all of Heaven, of the Kingdom of My Divine Fiat, so as to say, as I said to the Apostles:  ‘Preach It throughout the whole world.’  In fact, in My works I make use of the priesthood; and just as I had the priesthood before My coming in order to prepare the people, and the priesthood of My Church in order to confirm My coming and everything I did and said, so will I have the priesthood of the Kingdom of My Will.  Here is the utility of the many things I have manifested to you, the many surprising truths, the promises of the so many goods which I must give to the children of the Fiat Voluntas Tua:  they will be the Gospel, the basis, the inexhaustible fount from which all will draw the celestial life, the terrestrial happiness and the restoration of their creation.  Oh! how happy they will feel—those who, with yearning, will drink in large gulps from these founts of My knowledges; because they contain the virtue of bringing the life of Heaven, and of banishing any unhappiness.”

Then, in hearing this, I was thinking to myself about the big issue concerning the writings on the Divine Will, which are in Messina, brought there by the blessed memory of venerable Father Di Francia [canonized in 2004]:  how myself and my other superiors absolutely want them here, while the superiors in Messina, rigorously recommended by the venerable father before dying, want to keep them over there, for their publication when God pleases.  So, we do nothing but [send] letters of fire, back and forth—them, to keep them, and us, to get them back.  And I was feeling all worried, bored and tired, and was saying to myself:  “How could good Jesus allow all this?  Who knows whether He too feels disappointed?”  And He, moving in my interior, told me:  “My daughter, you are worried, but I am not disappointed at all; on the contrary I enjoy in seeing the interest that priests take in these writings which will form the Kingdom of My Will.  This means that they appreciate the great good of them, and each one would want to keep such a great treasure with himself, to be the first to communicate it to others.  And while the issue of who is going to win lasts, one approaches the other in order to consult one another on what to do.  And I enjoy that more of My ministers get to know that there is this treasure so great, of making known the Kingdom of My Divine Will; and I use this to form the first priests of My coming Kingdom of My Fiat.  My daughter, it is a great necessity to form the first priests; they will serve Me like the Apostles served Me to form My Church; and the ones who will occupy themselves with these writings in order to publish them, putting them out to print them—to make them known, will be the new evangelists of the Kingdom of My Supreme Will.  And just as the ones who are most mentioned in My Gospel are the four evangelists who wrote It, to their highest honor and My glory, so it will be for those who will occupy themselves with writing the knowledges on My Will in order to publish them.  Like new evangelists, there will be greater mention of them in the Kingdom of My Will, to their highest honor and My great glory in seeing the order of the creature, the life of Heaven on earth—the only purpose of Creation—return into My bosom.  Therefore, in these circumstances I expand the circle, and, like a fisherman, I catch those who must serve Me for a Kingdom so holy.  Therefore, let Me do, and do not be worried.”

From the Calendar--January 17, 1921 Volume 12

I felt my poor mind immersed in the immense sea of the Divine Volition.  Everywhere I could see the imprint of the Fiat.  I saw it in the sun, and it seemed to me that the echo of the Fiat in the sun brought me the divine love that darts through me, that wounds me, that flashes through me.  And I, on the wings of the Fiat of the sun, rose up to the Eternal One, and brought, in the name of the whole human family, the love that darted through the Supreme Majesty, that wounded Him, that flashed through Him.  And I said:  “In Your Fiat You gave me all this love, and only in the Fiat can I return it to You.”  I looked at the stars and I could see the Fiat in them; and in their sweet and meek twinkling, this Fiat brought me the pacific love, the sweet love, the hidden love, the compassionate love in the very night of sin.  And I, in the Fiat of the stars, brought to the throne of the Eternal One, in the name of all, the pacific love in order to put peace between Heaven and earth, the sweet love of the loving souls, the hidden love of many others, the love of the creatures when, after sin, they return to God.  But who can say all that I understood and did in so many Fiats with which I saw all Creation strewn?  I would be too long, therefore I stop here.   

Then, my sweet Jesus took my hands in His, and clasping them tightly, He told me:  “My daughter, the Fiat is all full of life; even more, It is life itself, and therefore all lives and all things come out from within the Fiat.  From My ‘Fiat’ Creation came out; therefore in each created thing one can see the imprint of the Fiat.  From the ‘Fiat Mihi’ of My dear Mama, pronounced in My Volition, having the same power of My Creative ‘Fiat,’ Redemption came out.  So, there is nothing in Redemption which does not contain the imprint of the ‘Fiat Mihi’ of My Mama.  Even My very Humanity, My steps, the works, the words, were sealed by Her ‘Fiat Mihi.’  My pains, the wounds, the thorns, the Cross, My Blood, had the imprint of Her ‘Fiat Mihi,’ because things carry the imprint of the origin from which they came out.  My origin in time was the ‘Fiat Mihi’ of the Immaculate Mama, therefore all My operating carries the mark of Her ‘Fiat Mihi’.  So, in each Sacramental Host there is Her ‘Fiat Mihi;’ if man rises from sin, if the newborn is baptized, if Heaven opens to receive souls, it is the ‘Fiat Mihi’ of My Mama that marks, that follows everything, and from It everything proceeds.  Oh! power of the Fiat—It rises at each instant, It multiplies, and It makes Itself life of all goods.  

“Now I want to tell you why I asked for your ‘Fiat’—your ‘yes’ in My Will.  I want My prayer that was taught—the ‘Fiat Voluntas Tua sicut in Coelo et in terra’—this prayer of so many centuries, of so many generations, to have its fulfillment and completion.  This is why I wanted another ‘yes’ in My Will—another ‘Fiat’ containing the creative power.  I want the ‘Fiat’ that rises at each instant, that multiplies for all; I want in one soul My same ‘Fiat’ which rises to My throne, and with Its creative power brings upon earth the life of the ‘Fiat on earth as It is in Heaven.’”  

From the Calendar--January 16, 1906 Volume 6

A little later He [Jesus] came back and added:  “My daughter, one who lives in the sphere of My Will resides in the abode of all riches, and one who lives outside of this sphere of My Will resides in the abode of all miseries.  This is why it is said in the Gospel that one who has, will be given, and one who has not, will be deprived of the little he has.  In fact, since one who lives in My Will resides in the abode of all riches, it is no wonder that he will continue to be enriched more and more with all goods, because he lives in Me as though in his own house; and keeping him in Me, would I perhaps be stingy?  Would I not keep giving him, day after day, now one favor, now another, never ceasing to give to him until I have shared all My goods with him?  Yes, indeed.  On the other hand, for one who lives in the abode of miseries, outside of My Will, his own will is already, in itself, the greatest of miseries and the destroyer of every good.  So, if he has a little bit of good, not having contact with My Will, and appearing as useless in that soul, what is the wonder if it is taken away from him?”

From the Calendar--January 15, 1920 Volume 12

I was pouring all of myself into the Divine Volition, to be able to substitute for everything that the creature is obliged to do toward the Supreme Majesty; and while I was doing this, I said to myself:  “Where shall I find enough love to be able to give my sweet Jesus love for all?”  And in my interior He told me:  “My daughter, in My Will you will find this love, which can make up for the love of all, because one who enters into My Will will find many springing founts; and as much as he may take, they never decrease by one drop.  So, there is the fount of love, which mightily spouts its waves; but as much as it spouts, it always springs.  There is the fount of beauty, and no matter how many beauties it puts out, it never fades; on the contrary, it springs with ever new and more beautiful beauties.  There is the fount of wisdom, the fount of contentments, the fount of goodness, of power, of mercy, of justice, and of all the rest of My qualities.  They all spring up, and each one pours into the other, in such a way that love is beautiful, is wise, is powerful, etc.; the fount of beauty, the beauty love, wise, powerful, and with such power as to keep the whole of Heaven enraptured, without ever tiring them.  These springing founts form such a harmony, such a contentment and an enchanting show, that all the Blessed remain so sweetly enchanted, that they do not move even one glance, so as not to miss even one of these contentments.  Therefore, My daughter, the strict necessity, for one who wants to love, repair, substitute for all, to live life in My Volition, where everything springs, things multiply for as many as are needed, and remain all coined with the divine imprint.  And this divine imprint forms other founts, whose waves rise—rise so high, that in pouring down, they flood everything and do good to all.  Therefore, always—always in My Will; there do I await you—there do I want you.”

Then, as I was a little more in suffering than usual, I was thinking to myself:  “Oh! how I would love for my pains to form for me the wings to let me fly to my Celestial Fatherland.”  And instead of afflicting me, my little pains were making feast to me.  I felt concerned about it, and my beloved Jesus added:  “My daughter, do not be surprised; in the face of glory, the pains smile, they feel triumphant in seeing the conquests they have acquired.  The pains confirm and establish the glory, more or less great, in the creature; and according to the pains, so does she feel, being painted within her, the most beautiful and various tints of beauty; and in seeing themselves being transformed into the rarest beauty, they make feast.  So, on earth the pains cry, at the doors of Heaven begins their eternal smile that will never end.  On earth the pains are bearers of humiliation, at the eternal gates they are bearers of glory.  On earth they render the poor creature unhappy, but by the miraculous secret that they possess, they work—deep inside her inmost fibers and in the whole of the human being—the Eternal Kingdom, in such a way that each pain takes on its own distinct office:  one acts as chisel, another as hammer, another as file, another as brush, another as color.  And only when each pain has fulfilled its work, then do they leave the creature entrusted to them, and they lead her, triumphant, up to Heaven.  And only when they see each pain changed into a distinct joy and perennial happiness, then do they let her go.  However, only if the creature receives them with love, and feels and receives in each pain the kiss, the embraces, the tight squeezes of My Divine Will, then do the pains possess this miraculous virtue.  Otherwise, they become as if they had no instruments apt to fulfilling their work.  

“But do you want to know who the pain is?  The pain is I, who hide inside of it to form the arcane works for My Celestial Fatherland, and I requite at usury the brief dwelling that they have given Me on earth.  I have imprisoned Myself in the small prison of the creature in order to continue My life of pains down here; it is just for this life of Mine to receive its joys, its happinesses, its exchange of glory in the Celestial Region.  Therefore, let your surprise cease in hearing that your pains smile before the victories, the triumphs and the conquests.”

From the Calendar--January 13, 1929 Volume 25

[Jesus speaking] “Now, My daughter, the Kingdom of Redemption and the Kingdom of My Divine Fiat hold hands, and since It is also a universal good, such that, if they want it so, all can enter into It, it is necessary that many know the news about It, and that It be conceived in the minds, in the words, in the works and hearts of many, so that, through prayers, desires, and a holier life, they may dispose themselves to receive the Kingdom of My Divine Will into their midst.  If the news is not divulged, My manifestations will not act as trumpeters, nor will the knowledges about My Divine Fiat fly from mouth to mouth, forming the conception of It in the minds, prayers, sighs and desires of creatures.  My Divine Volition will not make Its triumphant entrance, of coming to reign upon earth.  How necessary it is that the knowledges about My Fiat be known; not only this, but that it be made known that My Divine Will already wants to come to reign on earth as It does in Heaven into the midst of creatures.  And it is to the priests, as to new prophets, through the word as well as through writing and through works, that the task is given of acting as trumpeters in order to make known what regards My Divine Fiat; nor would their crime be lesser than that of the prophets, had these hidden My Redemption, if they do not occupy themselves as much as they can with what regards My Divine Will.  They themselves would be the cause of a good so great being neither known nor received by creatures; and to suffocate the Kingdom of My Divine Will, to keep suspended a good so great, such that there is no other similar to it—is this perhaps not a crime?  Therefore, I recommend to you:  on your part, do not omit anything, and pray for those who must occupy themselves with making known a good so great.”

Then He added with a more tender and afflicted tone:  “My daughter, this was the purpose for which I permitted the necessity of the coming of the priest—that you might deposit in them, as a sacred deposit, all the Truths which I have spoken to you about My Divine Fiat, and that they be attentive and the faithful executors of what I want—that is, that they make the Kingdom of My Divine Will known.  Be certain that I would not have permitted their coming if not for the purpose of fulfilling My great designs over the destiny of the human family.  And just as in the Kingdom of Redemption I left My Queen Mama in the midst of the Apostles, so that, together with Her, helped and guided by Her, they might give start to the Kingdom of Redemption—because the Sovereign Queen of Heaven knew more than all of the Apostles, She was the most interested; it can be said that She kept It formed within Her Maternal Heart, therefore She could very well instruct the Apostles in the doubts, in the way, in the circumstances; She was the true Sun in their midst, and one word of Hers was enough for My Apostles to feel strong, illuminated and fortified—in the same way, for the Kingdom of My Divine Fiat, having placed in you the deposit of It, I keep you in the exile still, so that the priests might draw from you, as from a new mother, what can serve as light, as guidance, as help, to give start to making known the Kingdom of My Divine Will.  And as I see their little interest—if you knew how much I suffer….  Therefore, pray, pray.”

Finding myself in my usual state, my lovable Jesus came in a pitiful state.  He had His hands bound tightly, His face covered with spit, and several people were slapping Him horribly.  And He remained quiet, placid, without making one movement or emitting one lament—not even a batting of eyelashes, in order to show that He Himself wanted to suffer these outrages; and this, not only externally, but also internally.  What a moving scene, such as to break the hardest hearts!  How many things that Face said, with that spit hanging, dirtied with mud!  I felt horrified, I trembled, I saw myself all pride before Jesus.

While He was in that appearance, He said to me:  “My daughter, only the little ones let themselves be handled as one wants; not those who are little of human reason, but those who are little yet filled with divine reason.  I alone can say that I am humble, because in man, that which is said to be humility should rather be called knowledge of self; and one who does not know himself already walks in falsehood.”

This morning, having received Holy Communion, I saw my adorable Jesus for a little while, and as soon as I saw Him, I said to Him:  “My sweet Good, tell me, do You continue to love me?”  And He:  “Yes, but I am loving and jealous, jealous and loving.  Even more, I tell you that in order to be perfect, love must be triple, and in Me there are these triple conditions of love:  first, I love you as Creator, as Redeemer and as Lover.  Second, I love you in My Omnipotence which I used in creating you, and in creating everything for love of you, in such a way that air, water, fire, and everything else, tell you that I love you and that I made them for love of you; I love you as My image, and I love you out of regard for you individually.  Third, I love you ab aeterno, I love you in time, and I love you for all eternity.  And this is nothing but a breath that came out of My love; imagine, yourself, what must be the love that I contain within Myself.  Now, you are obliged to return to Me this triple love, loving Me as your God in whom you must fix all of yourself, and let nothing come out of you which is not love for Me; loving Me out of regard for yourself and because of the good that comes to you; and loving Me for all, and in all.”

From the Calendar--January 10, 1909 Volume 12

Then [Jesus] added:  “The first ‘yes’ in My Fiat I asked of My dear Mama, and—oh! power of Her Fiat in My Will—as soon as the Divine Fiat met with the Fiat of My Mama, the two became one.  My Fiat raised Her, divinized Her, overshadowed Her, and without human intervention, She conceived Me, Son of God.  Only in My Fiat could She conceive Me; My Fiat communicated to Her the immensity, the infinity, the fecundity, in a divine manner, and this is why the Immense, the Eternal, the Infinite One could be conceived in Her.  As soon as She said ‘Fiat Mihi’, not only did She take possession of Me, but She overshadowed all creatures, all created things together.  She felt all the lives of creatures within Herself, and from that moment She began to act as Mother and Queen of all.  How many portents does this ‘yes’ of My Mama not contain—if I wanted to tell them all, you would never finish hearing them.

“Now, a second ‘yes’ in My Will I asked of you; and you, though trembling, pronounced it.  This ‘yes’ in My Volition will have its portents, it will have a divine fulfillment.  You—follow Me, and sink deeper into the immense sea of My Will, and I will take care of everything.  My Mama did not think about how I would get to conceive Myself in Her; She only said ‘Fiat Mihi,’ and I took care of the way in which to be conceived.  So you will do.”

From the Calendar--January 9, 1920 Volume 12

I was praying, and with my thought I was fusing myself in the Eternal Volition; and bringing myself before the Supreme Majesty, I was saying:  “Eternal Majesty, I come to Your feet in the name of the whole human family, from the first to the last man of the future generations, to adore You profoundly.  At Your most holy feet I want to seal the adorations of all; I come to recognize You in the name of all as Creator and absolute ruler of everything.  I come to love You for all and for each one; I come to requite You in love for all, for each created thing, inside of which You placed so much love, that the creature will never find enough love to repay You in love.  But in Your Will I find this love, and wanting that my love, as the other acts, be complete, full and for all, I have come into Your Will where everything is immense and eternal, and where I find Love to be able to love You for all.  So, I love You for each star You have created; I love You for as many drops of light and intensity of heat as You have placed in the sun….”  But who can say all that my poor mind was saying?  I would be too long, therefore I stop here.

From the Calendar--January 8, 1909 Volume 8

Having received Communion, at the best moment I was thinking of how I could cling to blessed Jesus more then ever, and He said to me:  “In order to cling more tightly to Me, to the point of dissolving your being in Mine, just as I transfuse Mine into yours, you must take what is Mine in everything, and in everything leave what is yours; in such a way that if you always think of things which are holy and regard only what is good, and the honor and glory of God, you leave your mind and take the Divine.  If you speak, if you operate good, and only out of love for God, you leave your mouth and your hands, and you take My mouth and My hands.  If you walk along holy and upright paths, you will walk with My own feet; if your heart loves Me alone, you will leave your heart and will take Mine, and will love Me with My own Love; and so with all the rest.  So, you will be enveloped with all My things, and I with all of yours.  Can there be a tighter union than this?  If the soul reaches the point of no longer recognizing herself, but the Divine Being within her, these are the fruits of good Communions, and this is the divine purpose in wanting to communicate Himself to souls.  But, how frustrated My Love remains, and how few are the fruits that souls gather from this Sacrament, to the point that the majority of them remain indifferent, and even nauseated by this divine food.”

From the Calendar--January 7, 1930 Volume 27

Then, I was following the acts of the Divine Will, accompanying them with my “I love You,” and I could comprehend the great difference in greatness and magnitude of the works of the Divine Fiat and of my little “I love You.” Oh! how small I felt, and truly just newly born before that Fiat which can do everything and embraces everything.  And my lovable Jesus, clasping me in His arms, told me:  “My daughter, one who lives in My Divine Will is My rich bank upon earth; and as you say your “I love You,” I invest it with My own, and from small it becomes great, it diffuses in the infinite, in such a way that the riches of My love become immeasurable, and I deposit them in the bank of your soul.  And as you continue your acts, I invest them with Mine, and I deposit them in your bank so as to have My divine bank upon earth.  Therefore, your little acts done in My Divine Volition serve Me in order to give Me something to do, to make Our divine qualities, which are infinite, flow in your little acts, which are finite, mix them together and make of them as many acts of Ours, depositing them in the bank of your soul, so that Our bank may find in you Its Heaven.  Don’t you know that one who must live in Our Divine Fiat must be a nimbus of Heaven?  Such that, as it lowers itself upon earth—but so much as to eliminate any distance—at that point of the earth where there is the fortunate creature, one must see Heaven, not earth. …”

From the Calendar--January 6, 1904 Volume 6

Continuing in my usual state, blessed Baby Jesus came, and after He placed Himself in my arms and He blessed me with His little hands, He told me:  “My daughter, since the human race is all one family, when someone does some good work and offers something to Me, the whole human family participates in that offering and is present to Me as if all were offering it.  As for example, today, as the Magi offered their gifts to Me, I had all human generations present in their persons, and all participated in the merit of their good work.  The first thing they offered to Me was gold, and I, in return, gave them the intelligence and the knowledge of the truth.  But do you know which gold I want now from souls?  Not material gold—no, but spiritual gold, that is, the gold of their will, the gold of their affections, of their desires, of their own tastes, the gold of the whole interior of man.  This is all the gold that the soul has, and I want it all for Myself.  Now, it is almost difficult for the soul to give this to Me without sacrificing and mortifying herself; and here is how myrrh, like electric wire, binds the interior of man, renders it more resplendent, and gives it the tint of multiple colors, giving all kinds of beauties to the soul.  But this is not all; it takes someone who maintains the colors always vivid, and the freshness which, almost like fragrance and breeze, blows from within the soul.  It takes someone who offers and obtains greater gifts than the ones he gives; and it also takes someone who forces the One who receives and the One who gives to dwell in his own interior, keeping Him in continuous conversation and in continuous commerce with himself.  So, who does all this?  It is prayer, especially the spirit of interior prayer, which knows how to convert into gold, not only the internal works, but also the external works—and this is the incense.”

From the Calendar--January 5, 1903 Volume 4

This morning I felt almost free of sufferings.  I myself did not know what to do, when I felt I was outside of myself and I saw people from our country who, in addition to the words and the calumnies they had spoken, were plotting to come to deeds.  In the meantime I saw blessed Jesus and I said:  “Lord, You give too much liberty to these infernal men.  Up until now it has been about infernal words, but now they want to reach the point of laying hands on Your ministers.  Bind them, and have compassion on them, and, at the same time, defend those who belong to You.”  And He:  “Daughter, this freedom is necessary in order to recognize the good and the evil.  Know, however, that I am tired of man—so tired that I share it with you.  In fact, when you feel that tiredness of this state of victim, and almost the will to go out of it, this comes to you from Me; and I warn you to be attentive not to put your will in, for I am looking for the will of the creature to lean on it and chastise the rebels.  However, let us try—again I will make you suffer, and they will be left without strength and will not be able to do anything of what they want.”  Who can say what I suffered and how many times He renewed my crucifixion!  And while doing this, raising His hand toward Heaven, He told me:  “My daughter, I did not make man for the earth, but for Heaven; his mind, his heart, and everything that his interior contains were to exist in Heaven.  Had he done this, he would have received the influence of the Most Holy Trinity within his three powers, and It would have been copied within himself; but since he occupies himself with earth, he receives mud, rot and the whole bilge of vices that the earth contains.”

From the Calendar--January 4, 1907 Volume 17

Having completed my whole day, I was thinking to myself:  “What else is left for me to do?”  And in my interior I heard, being said to me:  “You have to do the most important thing—your last act of fusing yourself in the Divine Will.”  So, according to my usual way, I began to fuse all my poor being in the Supreme Will; and while I was doing this, it seemed to me that the Heavens were opening, and I was going to meet the whole Celestial Court, and all of Heaven was coming toward me.  And my sweet Jesus told me:  “My daughter, fusing yourself in My Will is the most solemn, the greatest, the most important act of your whole life.  To fuse yourself in My Will is to enter the sphere of eternity, to embrace It, to kiss It, and to receive the deposit of the goods which the Eternal Will contains.  Even more, as the soul fuses herself in the Supreme Volition, all go to meet her, in order to deposit in her everything they have.  The Angels, the Saints, the very Divinity—they all deposit, knowing that they are depositing in that same Will in which everything is safe.  Even more, in receiving these goods, with her acts in the Divine Will the soul multiplies them and gives back double glory and honor to the whole of Heaven.  So, by fusing yourself in My Will you put Heaven and earth in motion; it is a new feast for the whole Empyreum.  And since to fuse oneself in My Will is to love and to give for all and for each one, without excluding anyone, in My goodness, so as not to let Myself be surpassed in love by the creature, I place in her the goods of all, and all possible goods which I contain within Me.  Nor can there be lack of space in which to place all goods, because My Will is immense, and lends Itself to receiving everything.  If you knew what you do and what happens when you fuse yourself in My Will, you would burn with the desire to fuse yourself continuously.”

Continuing in my usual state, I saw blessed Jesus for just a little, and He told me:  “My daughter, if one fears much, it is a sign that she relies much on herself, because in noticing nothing but weaknesses and miseries within herself, she naturally and justly fears.  On the other hand, if one fears nothing, it is a sign that she relies on God, because by relying on God, her miseries and weaknesses are dissolved in God, and as she feels invested by the Divine Being, it is no longer she who operates, but God within her.  So, what can she fear?  Therefore, true trust reproduces Divine Life in the soul.”

My abandonment in the Fiat continues, and carrying on my round in Its works, I was feeling all surrounded by them, and each of them was waiting for me to recognize them as works of my Creator, so as to bind ourselves together with inseparable bonds.  It seemed to me that the Divine Will, with Its light, flowed in all Creation as our blood flows in the body; and so It also flowed in all the acts, words, steps, pains and tears of Jesus; and I went in search of everything as my own things, to love them and recognize them as things that belong to me.  But while I was doing this, my sweet Jesus told me:  “My daughter, one who lives in My Divine Will is in communication with all things created by Us, because My Will is of all and belongs to all.  Since one is the Will that dominates and operates, all things are to It like members to the body, whose Head is God, who has such bond with all things—because Our Divine Volition flows as prime act of life—that they are inseparable from Him.  Only the human will, if it wants to operate on its own, without the union of Ours, can break this beautiful union, this bond of inseparability among God, created things, and creatures.  Therefore, My Divine Will is the bearer to the creature of all Our acts done in Creation and in Redemption; It is the revealer of Our secrets.  Since Our Will is one with the creature who lives in It, how can It hide?  And I, My daughter—how bad I would feel if I did not render you aware of My tears, of My inmost pains, and of what I did while I was on earth.  And in My sorrow I would say:  ‘Not even the little daughter of My Will knows everything I have done and suffered so as to receive the requital, even of her little repeated ‘“ love You,” and give her the gift of what belongs to Me.’

“Therefore, each thing you know of Me and you love as your own, I give to you as a gift; and making feast, I say:  ‘I have always something to give to My daughter, and she has always something to receive; therefore we shall always be together, because we are occupied in the exchange we make—I, in giving, and she, in receiving’.”

(I was meditating on the old year which was setting, and the new one which was rising.)  

My state continues in the flight of the light of the Divine Will, and I was praying the pretty little Baby that, just as the old year was dying never to be born again, so He would make my will die and live no more; and as present for the new year, He would give me His Will, just as I gave Him the gift of mine, so as to place it as footstool at His tender little feet, that it might have no other life but His Will alone.  Now, while I was saying this and other things, my sweet Jesus came out from within my interior, and told me:  “Daughter of My Will, how I love, want—yearn that your will may end in you.  Oh, how I accept your present!  How pleasing it will be for Me to keep it as soft footstool at My feet.  In fact, as long as it remains in the creature, outside of its center which is God, the human will is hard; but when it enters again into the center from which it came, serving as footstool at the feet of your little Baby Jesus, it becomes soft, and I use it to amuse Myself.  Is it not right that, little as I am, I have an amusement?  And that in the midst of so many sorrows, privations and tears, I have your will to make Me smile?
