I was thinking to myself: “My sweet Jesus says many great, admirable, highest and wonderful things about the Will of God, yet it seems to me that creatures do not have that concept which It deserves, nor that great impression of the wonders which are in It. On the contrary, it seems that they place It on the same level as the virtues, and maybe they care more about those, than about the Most Holy Will of God.” And my always lovable Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter, do you want to know why? Because their palates are not purged, and they are accustomed to the ordinary foods of this low world, which are the virtues, and not to the celestial and divine food, which is My Will. This celestial food is appreciated only by those who consider earth, things, and even people, as nothing, or as fully ordered in God. The virtues which can be practiced on earth are rarely exempt from human purposes, from self-esteem, from self-glory, love of appearing and of pleasing people. All these aims are like many tastes for the ordinary palate of the soul; and many times one operates more for these tastes than for the good that the virtue contains. This is why virtues breach more easily—because the human will always gains something. On the other hand, the first thing that My Will knocks down is the human will, and It tolerates no purpose which gives of human. My Will is from Heaven, and wants to place in the soul that which is divine and which belongs to Heaven; therefore one’s own self remains on an empty stomach and feels itself dying. So, in feeling her own self dying and in losing the hope of having any other food left, the soul makes up her mind to take the food of My Will; and as she takes it, her palate being purged, she feels the taste of the food of My Will, which is such that she would not exchange it at the cost of her life.
“My Will does not know how to compromise, as virtues do, with the low and little things that can be done on earth; rather, It wants to keep everything and everyone as a footstool at Its feet, and change the whole interior of the soul and the very virtues into Divine Will. In a word, It wants Its own heaven in the depth of the soul, otherwise It would remain hindered, and would not be able to carry out Its Divine Life. So, here is the great difference which exists between the virtues and My Will—between the sanctity of one and of the other: the virtues can be of creatures and can form a human sanctity at the most; My Will is of God and can form a Sanctity which is fully divine. What a difference! However, since the creatures are used to looking down below, they are more impressed by the little lamps of the virtues, than by the great Sun of My Will.”
From the Calendar--April 8, 1918 Volume 12
Returning to the point about living in the Divine Will, I had been told that it was like living in the state of union with God; and my always lovable Jesus, on coming, told me: “My daughter, there is great difference between living united with Me and living in My Will.” And as He was saying this, He stretched His arms toward me and told me: “Come into My Will, even for one instant, and you will see the great difference.”
I found myself in Jesus; my little atom was swimming in the Eternal Volition; and since this Eternal Volition is one single act which contains all acts together, past, present and future, I, being in the Eternal Volition, took part in that single act which contains all acts, as much as it is possible for creature. I took part also in the acts which do not exist, and which must yet exist, until the end of the centuries, and until God will be God; and for these too I loved Him, I thanked Him, I blessed Him, etc. There was not one act that would escape me, and I would now take the love of the Father, of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, I would make it my own, just as Their Will was my own, and I would give it to Them as mine. How content I was to be able to give Them Their own love as mine; and how They found Their full contentment and complete outpouring in receiving from me Their own love as mine. But who can say everything? I lack the words.
Now, blessed Jesus told me: “Have you seen what it is to live in My Will? It is to disappear; it is to enter the sphere of Eternity; it is to penetrate into the all-seeingness of the Eternal One—into the Uncreated Mind, and to take part in everything, as much as it is possible for creature, and in each divine act. It is to enjoy the use, even while being on earth, of all the divine qualities; it is to hate evil in a divine way. It is extending oneself to everyone without exhaustion, because the Will that animates this creature is divine. It is the sanctity not yet known, which I will make known, and which will place the last ornament, and the most beautiful, the most refulgent, among all other sanctities, and will be crown and fulfillment of all other sanctities.
“Now, to live united with Me is not to disappear—two beings can be seen together, and one who does not disappear cannot enter the sphere of Eternity to take part in all the divine acts. Ponder well, and you will see the great difference.”

… Then, after some hours of intense pains, my lovable Jesus told me: “My beloved daughter, you suffer very much. Come then, into My Will to take refreshment, and let us pray together for poor humanity.”
I don’t know how, I found myself in the immensity of the Divine Volition, in the arms of Jesus; and He, as though in a low voice, was speaking, and I repeated after Him. I will give some idea of what He was saying, because it is impossible for me to say everything. I remember that in the Will of Jesus I could see all the thoughts of Jesus, all the good He had done to us with His intelligence, and how all human intelligences received life from His mind. But, oh! God, what an abuse they made —how many offenses. And I said: “Jesus, I multiply my thoughts in Your Will, to give to each one of Your thoughts a kiss of a divine thought, an adoration, a recognition of You, a reparation, a love of divine thoughts, as if another Jesus were doing it. And this, in the name of all and for all the human thoughts, past, present and future; and I intend to compensate even for the intelligences of lost souls. I want that the glory of all creatures be complete, and that no one miss the roll-call; and what they do not do, I do in Your Will, to give You divine and complete glory.”
Then, looking at me, Jesus was waiting, as if He wanted a reparation to His eyes. And I said: “Jesus, I multiply myself in Your gazes, so that I too may have as many gazes for as many times as You have gazed upon the creature with love; in Your tears, so that I too may cry for all the sins of creatures, to be able to give You, in the name of all, gazes of divine love and divine tears, to give You complete glory and reparation for all the gazes of all creatures.”
Then, Jesus wanted me to continue the reparations to everything—to His mouth, to His Heart, to His desires, etc., multiplying everything in His Will, such that it would be too long for me to say everything, therefore I move forward. …
From the Calendar--April 6, 1922 Volume 14
Now, in this state I tried to fuse myself in the Holy Will of God, and I said: “My Love, in Your Will what is Yours is mine—all created things are mine. The sun is mine, and I give it to You in return, so that all the light and heat of the sun, in each drop of light and heat, may tell You that I love You, I adore You, I bless You, I pray You for all. The stars are mine, and in each flickering of the stars I seal my ‘I love You,’ infinite and immense, for all. The plants, the flowers, the water, the fire, the air, are mine, and I give them to You in return, that all of them may say to You, in the name of all: ‘I love You with that eternal love with which You created us.’” But if I wanted to say everything I would be too long.
Then Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter, how beautiful are the prayers and the acts done in My Will—how the creature is transformed in God the Creator Himself, and gives Him back the requital for what He has given to her. I created everything for man and I gave everything to him as gift! In My Will the creature rises up to her God and Creator, and finds Him in the act in which He created all things to give them to her as gift; and she, trembling before the multiplicity of so many gifts, and not having within herself the creative power to be able to create as many things for as many as she has received—she offers His own things to requite Him in love. Sun, stars, flowers, water, fire, air, I gave to you to give you love; and you, grateful, accepted them, and putting My love in circulation, you gave Me the requital for them. So, sun I gave you, and sun you gave Me; stars, flowers, water etc. I gave you, and you gave them back to Me. The notes of My love resounded again over all created things, and with one voice they gave Me the love which I made run over all Creation.
“In My Will the soul places herself at the level of her Creator, and in His own Will she receives and she gives. Oh! what a contest between creature and Creator! If all could see it, they would remain stupefied at seeing that in My Will the soul becomes a little god—but everything by virtue of the power of My Will.”
From the Calendar--April 5, 1908 Volume 8
Continuing in my usual state, I found myself outside of myself, within a garden, in which I could see the Queen Mama placed on a very high throne. I yearned to go up there to kiss Her hand, and as I tried to go, She came to meet me, giving me a smacking kiss on my face. In looking at Her, I saw as though a globe of light in Her interior, and within that light there was the word ‘Fiat.’ From that word descended many different unending seas of virtues, graces, greatnesses, glory, joys, beauties, and everything that our Queen Mama contains as a whole. Everything was rooted in that Fiat, and all of Her goods took their origin from the Fiat. Oh, omnipotent, fecund, holy Fiat! Who can comprehend you? I feel mute… It is so great that I can say nothing; therefore I stop here.
So I looked at Her with amazement, and She said to me: “My daughter, all of my Sanctity came out from within the word ‘Fiat.’ I did not move even for one breath, one step, one action, or anything at all, if not within the Will of God. My life, my food, my all, was the Will of God; and this produced such sanctity, riches, glories, honors for Me… not human, but Divine. So, the more the soul is united, identified with the Will of God, the more she can be called holy, and she is loved more by God. And the more she is loved, the more she is favored, because her life is nothing but the product of the Will of God. How can He not love her if she is His own thing? Therefore, one must not look at how much or how little he does, but rather, at whether it is wanted by God. In fact, the Lord looks more at something little, if it is according to His Will, than at something great, without It.”
He is Risen! April 20, 1938 Volume 36
After this, I continued my round in all that Our Lord did on earth and I stopped in the act of Resurrection. What triumph, what glory. Heaven poured Itself upon earth to be spectator of such a great glory. My beloved Jesus said: “My daughter, in My Resurrection, the right was given to creatures to rise again in me to new life. It was the confirmation, the seal of My whole life, My works and My words. If I came on earth it was to give to each and every one My Resurrection, as their own—to give them life and make them rise again in My own Resurrection. But do you want to know where is the real resurrection of the creature? Not in the end of her days, but while she is still living on earth. One who lives in My Will rises again to light and says: ‘My night is over.’ She rises again in the love of her Creator, so that there is no more cold or snow for her, but the smile of the Heavenly Spring; she rises again to sanctity, which puts to rushed flight all weaknesses, miseries and passions; she rises again to all that is Heaven, and if she looks at the earth, Heaven and Sun, she does it to find the works of her Creator—to take the opportunity to narrate to Him His glory and His long love story.
“Therefore, one who lives in My Will can say, as the Angel said to the holy women on the way to the sepulcher, ‘He is risen. He is not here any more.’ One who lives in My Will can also say, ‘My will is not with me any longer—it is risen again in the Fiat.’ And if the circumstances of life, opportunities and sufferings surround the creature, as if they were looking for her will, she can answer: ‘My will is risen again, it is not in my power anymore. I possess, in exchange, the Divine Will, and I want to cover with Its light all things around me—circumstances and sufferings, to make them like many divine conquests.’ The soul who lives in Our Will finds life in the acts of her Jesus, and Our operating, conquering, triumphant Will always runs in her. She gives us so much glory that Heaven cannot contain it. Therefore, live always in Our Will—never leave it, if you want to be Our triumph and Our glory.”
From the Calendar--April 4, 1931 Volume 29
And Jesus, assuming a sweeter appearance, took my poor soul in His hands, and in the depth of it He wrote: “I place My Divine Will in this creature, as origin, means and end.” And then He repeated: “My daughter, I place My Divine Will in your soul as origin of life, from which all your acts will descend, as though from one single point; and diffusing in all your being, in the soul and in the body, they will make you feel the palpitating life of My Divine Will in you, which will hide within Itself, as though inside a sacrarium, all your acts as continuation from Its divine origin. Now, by having My Divine Will as origin, you will remain fully ordered in your Creator, and will recognize that every origin comes from God, and will give Us the glory and the requital of love of all created things, which have come out of Our creative hands. By doing this, you will embrace the work of Creation, of which We were the origin, the life and the preservation.
“From the origin you will pass to the means. You must know that man, by withdrawing from Our Divine Will, denied the origin and disordered himself; and he remained vacillating, without support, without strength. At each step, He felt himself pushed to fall, as though feeling the ground missing under his feet, and Heaven, over his head, in act unloading Itself upon him in a fierce storm. Now, a means was needed in order to firm up the earth and make Heaven smile—and here is my coming upon earth, as means to reunite Heaven and earth, God and man. So, to one who has My Divine Will as origin, the means is revealed, and she will embrace the whole work of Redemption, and will give Me the requital of love and the glory of all the pains that I suffered in order to redeem man. Now, if there is the origin and the means, there must be the end. The end of man is Heaven, and for one who has My Divine Will as origin, all of her acts flow into Heaven, as the end which her soul must reach, and as the origin of her beatitude which will have no end. And if you have My Divine Will as end, you will give Me the glory and the requital of love for having prepared a Celestial Fatherland for creatures, as their happy dwelling. Therefore, be attentive, My daughter, and I seal in your soul My Divine Will as origin, means and end, which will be for you life, the safe guide, the support, and will lead you in Its arms to the Celestial Fatherland.”
From the Calendar--April 3, 1920 Volume 12
Continuing in my poor state, I felt my lovable Jesus in my interior, uniting Himself to pray together with me. And then He told me: “My daughter, all My Will in creating man was that he would do My Will in everything. And as he would gradually continue to do this Will of Mine, I would come to complete My Life in him, in such a way that, after repeated acts done in My Will, forming My Life in him, I would come to him; and finding him similar to Me, the Sun of My Life, finding the Sun of My Life that he had formed in his soul, would absorb him into Me; and as they would be transformed together, like two Suns into one, I would bring him into the delights of Heaven. …”
From the Calendar--April 2, 1932 Volume 30
“…The other fact is that I Myself taught the ‘Our Father,’ so that all would pray for My Kingdom to come, so that My Will be done on earth as It is in Heaven. If It were not to come, teaching such a prayer would have been useless—and useless things I know not how to do. And then, the many truths manifested about My Divine Will—do they not say in clear notes that Its Kingdom will come upon earth, not by human work, but by the work of Our Omnipotence? Everything is possible when We want it; We place as much ease in doing small things as We do in great ones, because all the virtue and power is in Our act, not in the good that the act of Our Power receives. In fact, when I was on earth, since in all My acts ran My Power, the touch of My hands, the empire of My voice, and so forth, were all made powerful, and with the same ease with which I called to life the little girl who had died a few hours before—with that same ease I called to life Lazarus, who had been dead for four days, who was already corrupted, and gave off an unbearable stench. I commanded that the bandages be removed from him, and then I called him with the empire of my voice: ‘Lazarus, come out!’ At My commanding voice, Lazarus was resurrected, the corruption disappeared, the stench ceased, and he came back healthy and hearty as if he had not died—true example of how My Power can make the Kingdom of My Fiat rise again in the midst of creatures. This is a tangible and sure example of how My Power, in spite of the fact that man is corrupted, and the stench of his sins infects him, more than a cadaver—he can be called a poor one wrapped in bandages, who has need of the divine empire in order to be freed of the bandages of his passions—but if the empire of My Power invests him and wants it, his corruption will have no more life, and he will rise again healthy, and more beautiful than before. Therefore, at the most, one can doubt that My Divine Will would want it, because they cannot deserve a good so great; but that My Power would not be able to do it—not this, ever.”
From the Calendar--April 1, 1928 Volume 24
“…Therefore, you must know that one who lives in My Will offers royal acts to the Eternal Majesty—acts which can be found only in the divine royal palace of My Will. When the creature comes before Us with the royal acts that Our Will does in all Creation, only then do We feel truly honored by her; these are divine acts, worthy of Our Majesty. On the other hand, one who does not live in Our Will, as much good as he might do, offers Us always human acts, not divine—acts which are inferior to Us because the royal act of Our Divine Fiat does not flow in them.
“It happens as to a king who is served by a pageboy of his with all the things which are in His royal palace. Even though they are his own things, the king feels honored because, if he drinks, he drinks his pure water in golden vases, clear and clean; if he eats, the food is worthy of him and is given to him in silver platters; if he clothes himself, he is brought royal garments which befit him as king. The king feels all pleased and satisfied because he is served with the royal things that belong to him. On the other hand, another pageboy serves the king, but when the king wants to drink, he goes to his own miserable home to take his turbid water, and brings it in vases of clay, not well cleaned; if the king wants to eat, he goes to take his own unrefined food, and in disgusting plates; if the king wants to clothe himself, he brings him unadorned garments, unworthy of a king. The king is not pleased nor honored in being served by this pageboy; rather, he remains with a pain in his heart and says: ‘How can this be? I have my own royal things and this one dares to serve me with the miserable things of his home?’ The first pageboy is one who lives in My Will; the second is one who lives of human will. What great difference between the two!”
From the Calendar--March 31, 1926 Volume 19
Then, while I was swimming in that light, my always lovable Jesus told me: “My daughter, this light, this dwelling so enchanting, which knows neither sunset nor night, is My Will. Everything is complete in It: happiness, strength, beauty, knowledge of the Supreme Being, etc. This light so endless, which is Our Will, came out of the womb of the Divinity as the heritage of man—the most beautiful inheritance We could give him. It came out of Our inmost womb, bringing with Itself a share of all Our goods, to let the creature inherit them, and to form him as all beautiful and holy, in the likeness of the One who had created him.
“See, then, My daughter, what it means to do My Will and to live in It: there is no good that exists in Heaven and on earth, which It does not possess. I want you to know them; otherwise, how can you love them, possess them, and use them in the different circumstances, if you do not know them? If you do not know that you have a divine strength at your disposal, you will lose heart for a trifle. If you do not know that you possess a divine beauty, you will not have the courage to be with Me in a familiar way; you will feel dissimilar from Me, and will not have the audacity to snatch from Me that the Fiat may come to reign upon earth. If you do not know that everything I have created is yours, you will not love Me in all things, and will not have the fullness of true love; and so with all the other things. If you do not know all the goods which My Will possesses—that there is nothing which does not belong to It, and which you must possess—it would happen to you as to a poor one who was given a million, but without letting him know that such an amount had been placed in his little hovel. Poor one, because he does not know the good he possesses, he continues his poor life—his stomach half-empty, his clothes tattered; and he drinks in sips the bitternesses of his poverty. But if he knows it, he changes his fortune; he turns the hovel into a palace; he feeds himself abundantly, clothes himself with decency, and drinks the sweet sips of his richness. So, as many goods as one might possess, if he does not know them, it is as if he did not have them.”
From the Calendar--March 30, 1931 Volume 29
… And Jesus, to give me strength, made Himself seen for a little while and told me: “My daughter, in creating man, Our Divinity issued from Ourselves Sanctity, Love, Goodness, Beauty, and so forth, which were to serve man to make himself holy, good, beautiful, and to give Us love for love. Now, Our divine goods have not been taken completely by him, and so they are waiting for one who would take them. Therefore, come into Our goods, come to take the crumbs of Sanctity, of Love, of Goodness, the crumbs of Beauty, of Strength. I say crumbs in comparison with those which you will leave out, because Our goods are immense, and what the creature can take can be called crumbs compared to what she leaves out; but, for her, they fill her so much as to overflow outside. Only then is Our Love content—when It sees the creature loved in Our goods, filled to the brim. Now, these crumbs form many different foods, one more beautiful than the other, which she takes from Our celestial table, and she nourishes herself abundantly from these divine foods; and since one gives of that food which one takes, so, in giving Us her acts—of one who has nourished herself of these divine crumbs which give of sanctity, of beauty, of strength, of love, and has filled herself with such beauty, We immediately recognize that it is food of Our crumbs that she gives Us in her acts, and—oh! how content We remain, that the creature gives Us her acts that give of what is divine; We feel Our fragrances, We touch Our Sanctity and Goodness, and feel requited for the crumbs We gave her.”

This morning, on coming, blessed Jesus seemed to carry a black mantle; and drawing near me, He seemed to place me under it, saying: “In this way I will envelop all creatures, as within a black mantle.” And He disappeared.
I remained concerned because of some chastisement, and I prayed Him to come back, for I could no longer be without Him; but I was as though bothered by that sight from before. Then, after much hardship, He came, carrying a cup filled with some liqueur. He gave me some to drink, and then He added: “My daughter, peaceful souls eat at My same table and drink at My cup, and the Divine Archer does nothing but dart through them continuously, and no dart is wasted. All of them—all of them wound the loving soul; and the soul faints, while the Divine Archer continues with His arrows which now make her die of love, now give her back new life of love. And from her wounds, the soul shoots her darts to wound the One who has so much wounded her. So, a peaceful soul is the delight and the amusement of God; while, with turbid souls, if the Divine Archer darts through them, the darts are wasted by the soul, leaving Him embittered, and forming the diabolical amusement and taste.”
From the Calendar--March 28, 1926 Volume 19
Having received Holy Communion, I was calling everyone—my Queen Mama, the Saints, the first man Adam with the retinue of all generations, up to the last man who will come upon earth, and then all created things—so that, all together, prostrate with me around Jesus, we might adore Him, bless Him, love Him; so that nothing might be missing around Jesus, of all the works which came out of His hands—not a heart that palpitates, nor a sun that shines, nor the vastness of the blue heavens studded with stars, nor the sea that murmurs, and not even the tiny little flower that gives off its fragrance. I wanted to centralize everything and everyone around Jesus-Host, so that we might render Him the honors due to Him. His Will made everything present to me as if everything were mine, and I wanted to give everything to Jesus.
Now, while I was doing this, it seemed to me that Jesus was happy in looking at all generations and all of His things around Himself; and clasping me to Himself, He told me: “My daughter, how content I am in seeing all of My works around Me! I feel I am given back the joy and the happiness which I gave them in creating them; and I repay them with new happiness. This is the great good which My Will contains and brings; and in one who lives in It, It centralizes the goods of all, because there is no good which My Will does not bring, and It binds the soul to everyone and to everything that belongs to It. So, if the creature had not withdrawn from My Will, I would have found everyone within each one, and each one in everyone. The goods, the light, the strength, the science, the love, the beauty, were to be common to all. There was to be neither ‘yours’ nor ‘mine’, both in the natural and in the spiritual order—each one could have taken as much as he wanted.
“The human life in My Will was to be symbolized by the sun: everyone can take its light, as much as they want of it, without anyone lacking it. However, as man withdrew from My Will, the goods, the light, the strength, the love, the beauty, remained divided and as though halved among creatures. Therefore, there was no more order, nor harmony, nor true love—either toward God or among themselves. Oh, if the sun could be divided into many rays, these solar rays, detaching from the center of light, would end up becoming darkness. And what would happen to the earth? Ah, indeed no one could ever again have a light of his own, and all for himself. So it was with My Will. By withdrawing from It, man lost the fullness of goods, the fullness of light, of strength, of beauty, etc., and therefore he was forced to live a life of hardships. Therefore, be attentive; let your living in My Will be continuous, that you may contain everything, and I may find everything in you.”
From the Calendar--March 27, 1902 Volume 4
…Then, as though wanting to give me an exhortation, He [Jesus} added: “You must be not only upright, but just. Into Justice enters loving Me, praising Me, glorifying Me, thanking Me, blessing Me, repairing Me, adoring Me, not only for oneself, but for all other creatures. These are rights of Justice which I demand from each creature, and which are due to Me as Creator, and one who denies to Me even one of these rights, can never be called just. Therefore, think about fulfilling your duty of justice, for in Justice you will find the beginning, the means and the end of sanctity.”
From the Calendar--March 26, 1933 Volume 32
After this, I followed the Divine Will in the Incarnation of the Word, to make my love, my adoration and thanksgiving run in this act so solemn and full of tenderness and of excessive love, such that Heaven and earth tremble and remain mute, unable to find worthy words with which to sing hymns to an excess of love so astounding. And my sweet Jesus, with such tenderness as to make my heart split, told me: “Dearest daughter, in My Incarnation the love was so great, that the Heavens lowered Themselves and the earth elevated itself; if the Heavens would not lower, the earth would not have the virtue to elevate. It was the Heaven of Our Supreme Being which, taken by an excess of love, the greatest, never before heard, lowered Itself, kissed the earth, elevating it to Itself, and formed the garment of My Humanity in order to cover Itself, hide, identify with It, unifying together in order to live life in common with It. And forming, not just one excess of love, but a chain of continuous excesses, It restricted My immensity within the little circle of My Humanity. For Me, power, immensity, strength, were My own nature, and it would have cost Me nothing to use them. What cost Me was that I was to restrict My immensity within My Humanity, and remain there as if I had neither power nor strength, while they were already with Me, and inseparable from Me; and I was to adapt Myself to the little acts of My Humanity—and only out of love, not because I was unable. So, I descended into all the human acts in order to elevate them and give them the divine form and order. Man, by doing his will, destroyed within himself the divine way and order; and My Divinity, covered by My Humanity, came to redo what he had destroyed. Can there be a greater love toward a creature so ungrateful?”
From the Calendar--March 25, 1928 Volume 24
[Jesus speaking] “…Therefore, as many truths as I have told you about My Will, so many are the steps which I made My Fiat take in order to make It return as operating life into the midst of creatures. This is why I have told you so many of them, that one can say that Heaven and earth are filled with the steps of the knowledges about My Will; and uniting together, they form the sea of light in your soul, which wants to overflow from within you to make Its way into the midst of creatures. These steps will be multiplied according to how much the truths about My Will will be recognized, because I never manifest a truth if not when I want to give it as gift, giving the life and the good it contains. Therefore, until My Divine Will is known with all of Its knowledges, Its steps will be hampered, and the good It wants to do to creatures suspended.
“If you knew how painful it is to be able to do good, placing oneself in the act of doing it, and having to keep it suspended because it is not known, waiting and waiting and longing for it to be made known so as to be relieved of the weight of the good that one wants to give—oh! how you would hasten to make known all the steps of My Fiat. More so, since they are steps which will bring, not remedies, helps or medicines—but fullness of life, of light, of sanctity and totality of goods; and My love, gushing out and flooding the whole world, will restore the order of Creation and the dominion of My Will in the midst of the human family.”
From the Calendar--March 24, 1913 Volume 11
I was feeling a certain discontent because of the privations of my always lovable Jesus; and He, coming for just a little, told me: “My daughter, what are you doing? I am the contentment of contentments. Being in you, and feeling some discontents, I recognize that they come from you, and therefore I do not recognize Myself completely in you, because discontents are part of the human nature—not of the Divine; while it is My Will that what is human no longer exist in you—only My Divine Life.”
I add that I was thinking to myself about the sweet Mama, and Jesus told me: “My daughter, the thought of My Passion never escaped My dear Mama, and by dint of repeating it, she filled all of Herself with Me, completely. The same happens to the soul: by dint of repeating what I suffered, she arrives at filling herself with Me.”

I was thinking of the sorrows of my Celestial Mama, and my lovable Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter, I was the first King of sorrows, and being Man and God, I had to centralize everything within Me in order to have primacy over everything, even over sorrows. Those of My Mama were nothing other than the reverberations of Mine which, being reflected in Her, made Her share in all My sorrows which, piercing Her, filled Her with such bitterness and pain that She felt Herself dying at each reverberation of My sorrows. But love sustained Her and gave Her life again. Therefore, not only for honor, but also by right of justice, She was the first Queen of the immense sea of Her sorrows.” While He was saying this, I seemed to see my Mama in front of Jesus, and everything that Jesus contained, the sorrows and the piercings of that Most Holy Heart, were reflected in the Heart of the sorrowful Queen. At those reflections, many swords formed in the Heart of the pierced Mama; and these swords were marked by a Fiat of light, in which She remained circumfused, in the midst of so many Fiats of most refulgent light which gave Her so much glory that there are no words to narrate it.
Then, Jesus continued, saying: “It was not the sorrows that constituted My Mama as Queen and made Her shine with so much glory, but it was My omnipotent Fiat, which was braided to Her every act and sorrow, and constituted Itself life of each of Her sorrows. So, My Fiat was the first act that formed the sword, giving Her the intensity of pain that It wanted. My Fiat could place all the sorrows It wanted in that pierced Heart, adding piercings upon piercings, pains upon pains, without a shadow of the slightest resistance. On the contrary, She felt honored that My Fiat would constitute Itself life of even a heartbeat of Hers; and My Fiat gave Her complete glory and constituted Her true and legitimate Queen.
“Now, who will be the souls in whom I can reflect the reverberations of My sorrows and of My very Life? Those who will have My Fiat as life. This Fiat will make them absorb My reflections, and I will be generous in sharing with them that which My Will operates in Me. Therefore, in My Will do I await souls, to give them the true dominion and the complete glory of each act and pain that they may suffer. The operating and suffering outside of My Will I do not recognize; I could say: ‘I have nothing to give you; what is the will that animated you in doing and suffering this? Get your reward from that one.’ Many times, doing good or suffering, if My Will is not present in them, can be miserable slaveries which degenerate into passions, while it is My Will alone that gives true dominion, true virtues, true glory, such as to transform the human into divine.”

As I was in my usual state, I found myself outside of myself, and I could see all the order of created things. And my sweet Jesus told me: “My daughter, see what harmony, what order in all created things, and how all of them came out to life from the Eternal Fiat. So, everything cost Me one Fiat. The littlest star just as the refulgent and splendid sun, the littlest plant just as the great tree, the small insect just as the largest animal—they seem to say among themselves: ‘We are noble creatures, our origin is the Eternal Volition; we all have the mark of the Supreme Fiat. It is true that we are distinct and different among ourselves; we have diversity of office, of light, of heat; but this says nothing. One is our value—the Fiat of a God. One our life and preservation—the Fiat of the Eternal Majesty.’ Oh! how eloquently Creation speaks of the power of My Will, and teaches that from the greatest thing to the smallest, one is the value, because they have life from the Divine Volition. In fact, a star would say to the sun: ‘It is true that you have much light and heat—your office is great, your goods immense. The earth almost depends on you, so much so, that I do nothing in comparison to you. But the Fiat of a God made you so; therefore our value is equal, the glory that we give to our Creator is fully similar.’”
Then He added with a more afflicted tone: “It was not so in creating man. It is true that his origin is My Fiat, but this was not enough for Me. Taken by excess of love, I breathed on him, wanting to infuse in him My very Life; I endowed him with reason, I made him free, and I constituted him king of all Creation. But man, ungrateful—how did he correspond to Me? Amid all Creation, he alone has rendered himself the sorrow of My Heart, the clashing note. And then, what to tell you about my crafting in the sanctification of souls? Not just one Fiat, not just My breath do I place at their disposal, but My very Life, My love, My wisdom. Yet, how many rejections, how many defeats does My love receive. Ah! my daughter, compassionate My hard sorrow, and come into My Will to substitute for the love of the whole human family, so as to soothe My pierced Heart.”
