So I abandoned all of myself in His Will, but I felt great repugnance in me toward Justice; and my sweet Jesus, coming back, told me:  “If you knew how heavy it is for Me to use Justice, and how much I love the creature!  The whole of Creation is for Me like the body to the soul, like the skin to the fruit.  I am in continuous immediate act with man, but the created things hide Me, just as the body hides the soul.  However, if it wasn’t for the soul, the body would have no life.  In the same way, if I withdrew from created things, they would all remain without life.  So, in all created things I visit man, I touch him and give him life.  I am hidden in the fire, and I visit him with its heat; if I were not there, the fire would have no heat—it would be a painted fire and without life.  But while I visit man in the fire, he does not recognize Me, nor does he give Me one greeting.  I am in the water, and I visit him by quenching his thirst; if I were not there, the water would quench no thirst—it would be dead water.  But while I visit him, he passes before Me without bowing once to Me.  I am hidden in the food, and I visit man by giving him substance, strength, taste; if I were not there, man, taking food, would remain on an empty stomach.  Yet, ungrateful, while he feeds on Me, he turns his back to Me.  I am hidden in the sun, and I visit him with My light, almost at each instant; but, ungrateful, he requites Me with continuous offenses.  I visit him in all things:  in the air that he breathes, in the flower that gives off its fragrance, in the breeze that refreshes, in the thunder that strikes—in everything.  My visits are innumerable.  Do you see how much I love him?  And you, being in My Will, are together with Me, visiting man and giving him life.  Therefore, do not be frightened if sometimes you concur in Justice.”

As I was in my usual state, I saw my adorable Jesus for just a little, who said to me:  “Peace puts all passions in their place, but what triumphs over everything, establishes all the good in the soul and sanctifies everything, is to do everything for God—that is, to operate with the upright intention of pleasing God alone.  An upright operating is what directs, dominates and rectifies the virtues themselves, and even obedience.  In sum, it is like a conductor who directs the spiritual music of the soul.”  Having said this, He disappeared like a flash.

From the Calendar--May 10, 1925 Volume 17

I write only out of obedience, and I will make a mix of past things and present things.  Many times in my writings I say:  “I was fusing myself in the Holy Divine Volition,” and I do not explain further.  Now, forced by obedience, I will say what happens to me in fusing myself.  

As I fuse myself, an immense void, all of light, becomes present before my mind, such that one can find neither the extent of its height, nor of its depth, nor the boundaries on the right or on the left, nor those on the front or on the back.  In the midst of this immensity, at a point extremely high, I seem to see the Divinity, or the Three Divine Persons, waiting for me; but this, always mentally.  And, I don’t know how, a little girl comes out of me; but it is my own self—maybe it is my little soul.  But it is moving to see this little girl placing herself on the way within this immense empty space—all alone, shy, walking on tiptoe, with her eyes always fixed on the place where she sees the Three Divine Persons, because she fears that if she lowers her gaze in that immense void, she wouldn’t know at which point she would end up.  All her strength is in that gaze fixed on high; in fact, as her gaze is corresponded by the gaze of the Supreme Height, she draws strength along the way.  Now, as she arrives before Them, she plunges herself with her face into that void, to adore the Divine Majesty.  But one hand from the Divine Persons raises the little girl; and They say to her:  “Our daughter, the little daughter of Our Will—come into Our arms.”  In hearing this, she becomes festive, and makes the Three Divine Persons festive, as They await the carrying out of her office, entrusted to her by Them.  And with grace typical of a little girl, she says:  “I come to adore You, to bless You, to thank You for all.  I come to bind to Your throne all human wills of all generations, from the first to the last man, so that all may recognize Your Supreme Will, adore It, love It, and give It life within their souls.  Supreme Majesty, in this immense void there are all creatures, and I want to take them all in order to place them in Your Holy Will, so that all may return to the origin from which they came—that is, Your Will.  This is why I have come into Your paternal arms—to bring You all Your children and brothers of mine, and bind them all with Your Will.  And in the name of all, and for all, I want to repair You and give You the homage and the glory as if all done Your Most Holy Will.  But, O please! I pray You, let there be no more separation between Divine Will and human will.  It is a little girl who asks this of You, and I know that You can deny nothing to the little ones.”  But who can say everything?  I would be too long.  In addition to the fact that I lack the words to express what I say before the Supreme Height, it seems to me that, here in the low world, we do not use the same language as in that immense void.  

From the Calendar--May 9, 1912 Volume 11

This morning, finding myself in my usual state, I was thinking about how we can consume ourselves in love; and blessed Jesus, on coming, told me:  “My daughter, if the will wants nothing but Me, if the intellect occupies itself with nothing but knowing Me, if the memory remembers nothing other than Me; here they are—the three powers of the soul consumed in love.  The same for the senses:  if one speaks only about Me, if she hears only that which regards Me, if she enjoys only My things, if she works and walks only for Me, if her heart loves only Me, if her desires desire only Me; here it is—the consummation in love formed in her senses.  

“My daughter, love has a sweet enchantment, and it renders the soul blind to all that is not love, making her all eyes for all that is love.  Therefore, for one who loves, whatever her will may encounter, if it is love, she becomes all eyes; if not, she becomes blind, stupid and does not understand anything.  The same for her tongue; if she has to speak about love, she feels many eyes of light flow within her word and becomes eloquent; if not, she begins to stammer and ends up dumb; and so with all the rest.”

From the Calendar--May 8, 1909 Volume 9

Continuing in my usual state, my lovable Jesus made Himself seen for just a little, and told me:  “My daughter, one who talks much shows that he is empty in his interior, while one who is filled with God, finding more taste in his interior, does not want to lose that taste; he hardly speaks and only out of necessity.  And even while speaking, he never departs from his interior, and he tries, as much as he can, to impress in others that which he feels within himself.  On the other hand, one who talks much is not only empty of God, but with his much talking, he tries to empty others of God.” 

From the Calendar--May 7, 1899 Volume 2

Then Jesus continued, saying to me:  “Yet, it is so.  See, My Heart is so very large, but the door is extremely narrow.  No one can fill the void of this Heart but souls who are detached, naked and simple.  In fact, as you see, since the door is small, any hindrance, even the slightest—that is, a shadow of attachment, an intention which is not upright, a work done without the purpose of pleasing Me—prevents them from entering to delight in My Heart.  Much love of neighbor enters My Heart, but it must be so united to Mine as to form one single love, in such a way that one cannot be distinguished from the other.  But as for the other love of neighbor which is not transformed into My love—I do not look at it as something that belongs to Me.”

From the Calendar--May 6, 1934 Volume 33

[Jesus speaking] “Listen to Me, My daughter:  in Creation Our primary purpose was man, but instead of creating man first, We created heavens, sun, sea, earth, air, winds, as the dwelling in which to place this man, and so as to let him find everything that was needed to make him live.  In the very creation of man, first We made the body and then I infused in him the soul, more precious, more noble, and containing more value than the body.  Many times it is necessary to do minor things first, in order to prepare with decency the place for Our major works.  What is the wonder, then, if in descending from Heaven to earth, Our primary purpose in Our divine mind was to constitute the Kingdom of Our Will in the midst of the human family?  More so, since the first offense that man gave Us was directed precisely against Our Will, therefore with justice Our first intent was to be directed to rejoining the offended side of Our Will and to returning to It Its royal place.  And after this would Redemption come; and Redemption came indeed in a superabundant way, with such excesses of love as to astound Heaven and earth.  But why before?  Because It was to serve to prepare, with decency, with decorum, with sumptuousness, with the endowment of My pains and of My very death, as Kingdom, as army, as cortege, to let My Will reign.  In order to heal man My pains were needed; it took My death to give him life; yet, one tear of Mine, one sigh of Mine, one single drop of My blood would have been enough to save all, because everything I did was animated by My Supreme Will.  I can say that it was My Will that ran within all My acts, in My most harrowing pains, to seek man and place him in safety.  How, then, can the prime purpose be denied to a Will so holy, so powerful, which embraces everything, and there is no life nor any good without It?  Therefore, the mere thinking that is absurd.  So, I want you to recognize It in all things as prime act of everything; in this way you will place yourself in Our divine order – that there is nothing in which We do not give primacy to Our Will.”

From the Calendar--May 5, 1905 Volume 6

As I was in my usual state, blessed Jesus came for just a little, and it seemed that another Image, completely similar to Him, would come out from within His interior—only, it was smaller.  I was surprised on seeing this, and He said to me:  “My daughter, everything that can come out from within a person is called a birth, and this birth becomes the child of the one who gives birth to it.  Now, this daughter of Mine is Grace which, coming out of Me, communicates Herself to all the souls who want to receive Her and transmutes them into as many other children of Mine.  Not only this, but everything good and virtuous that can come out of these second children, becomes the children of Grace.  See then, what a long generation of children Grace forms for Herself, if only they receive Her.  But, how many reject Her; and My daughter comes back into My womb, alone and childless.”  While He was saying this, that Image enclosed Herself within me, filling me completely with Herself.

[Jesus speaking] “Therefore, be attentive, because this is about placing in safety that Eternal Will which, with so much love, wants to dwell in the creatures.  But It wants to be known, It does not want to be like a stranger, but wants to give Its goods and become Life of each one.  However, It wants Its rights, Its place of honor; It wants the human will to be put aside—the only enemy for Itself and for man.  The mission of My Will was the purpose of the creation of man.  My Divinity did not depart from Heaven—from Its throne, while My Will not only departed, but descended into all created things and formed Its Life in them.  But while all things recognized Me, and I dwell in them with majesty and decorum, man alone drove Me away.  But I want to conquer him and win him, and therefore My mission is not ended.  So I called you, entrusting to you My own mission, that you may place the one who drove Me away on the lap of My Will, and everything may return to Me in My Will.  Therefore, do not be surprised at the many great and marvelous things I may tell you for the sake of this mission, or at the many graces I may give you; because this is not about making a Saint, or saving the generations.  This is about placing a Divine Will in safety, that all may return to the beginning, to the origin from which all came, and that the purpose of My Will may have its fulfillment’.”  

From the Calendar--May 3, 1926 Volume 19

I was about to fuse myself in the Holy Divine Volition according to my usual way, and I said:  “Supreme Majesty, I come in the name of all, from the first to the last man which will exist on earth, to give You all the homages, the adorations, the praises, the love that each creature owes You, and to make all reparations, for all and for each sin.”  Now, while I was saying this, my lovable Jesus moved in my interior and told me:  “My daughter, this way of praying is only of My Will, because It alone can say:  ‘I come in the name of all before the Supreme Majesty.’  In fact, with Its all-seeingness and immensity, It sees everything and embraces everyone; so It can say—not as a manner of speaking, but in reality:  ‘I come in the name of all, to do for You all that the creatures owe You.’  No human will can say—in reality:  ‘I come in the name of all.’  This is the sign that My Will reigns in you.”

From the Calendar--May 2, 1923 Volume 15

I felt my poor mind as though lost in the immensity of the Eternal Volition, and my sweet Jesus, returning to speak about the Most Holy Will of God, told me:  “My daughter, oh! how well your acts done in My Will harmonize.  They harmonize with Mine, with those of My beloved Mama, and one disappears within the other, forming one single act—it seems like Heaven on earth, and the earth in Heaven; and the echo of one in three and of three in one, of the Sacrosanct Trinity.  Oh! how sweet it sounds to Our hearing, how it enraptures Us, but so much as to capture Our Will from Heaven to earth.  And when My ‘Fiat Voluntas Tua’ has Its fulfillment ‘on earth as It is in Heaven,’ then will the complete fulfillment of the second part of the Our Father take place—that is, ‘Give us this day our daily bread.’  I said:  ‘Our Father, in the name of all, I ask You for three kinds of bread each day:  the bread of Your Will, or rather, more than bread, because if bread is necessary two or three times a day, this one is necessary at each moment, in all circumstances.  Even more, it must be not only bread, but like balsamic air that brings life—the circulation of the Divine Life in the creature.  Father, if this bread of Your Will is not given, I will never be able to receive all the fruits of My Sacramental Life, which is the second bread we ask of You every day.  Oh! how My Sacramental Life feels discomforted, because the bread of Your Will does not nourish them; on the contrary, it finds the corrupted bread of the human will.  Oh! how disgusting it is to Me!  How I shun it!  And even though I go to them, yet I cannot give them the fruits, the goods, the effects, the sanctity, because I do not find Our bread in them.  And if I give something, it is in small proportion, according to their dispositions, but not all the goods which I contain; and My Sacramental Life is patiently waiting for man to take the bread of the Supreme Will, in order to be able to give all the good of My Sacramental Life.  See then, how the Sacrament of the Eucharist—and not only It, but all the Sacraments, left to My Church and instituted by Me—will give all the fruits which they contain and complete fulfillment, when Our bread, that is, the Will of God, is done on earth as It is in Heaven.

“Then I asked for the third bread—the material one.  How could I say:  ‘Give us this day our bread’?  In view of the fact that, as man would do Our Will, what was Ours would be his, and so the Father would no longer have to give the bread of His Will, the bread of My Sacramental Life and the daily bread of natural life, to illegitimate, usurping, evil children, but to legitimate and good children, who would share in the goods of their Father; it is because of this that I said:  ‘Give us our bread.’  Then will they eat the blessed bread; everything will smile around them, and Heaven and earth will carry the mark of the harmony of their Creator.”

From the Calendar--May 1, 1900 Volume 3

After I received Communion, my sweet Jesus made Himself seen all affability; and since it seemed that the confessor was placing the intention of the crucifixion, my nature felt almost a repugnance to submit itself.  My sweet Jesus, to cheer me, told me:  “My daughter, if the Eucharist is the deposit of the future glory, the cross is the disbursement with which to purchase it.  If the Eucharist is the seed that prevents corruption—like those aromatic herbs that prevent decomposition when applied to cadavers—and gives immortality to soul and body, the cross embellishes and is so powerful that if debts have been contracted, it becomes their guarantor, and it more surely obtains the restitution of the debt’s deed.  And after it has satisfied every debt, it forms for the soul the most refulgent throne in the future glory.  Ah! yes, the cross and the Eucharist alternate, and one operates more powerfully than the other.”

Then He added:  “The cross is My flowery bed, not because I did not suffer harrowing spasms, but because by means of the cross I delivered many souls to grace, and I could see many beautiful flowers bloom, which would produce many celestial fruits.  So, in seeing so much good, I held that bed of suffering as My delight, and I delighted in the cross and in suffering.  You too, my daughter—take pains as delights, and delight in being crucified on My cross.  No, no, I do not want you to fear suffering, almost wanting to act like a sluggard.  Up, courage, be brave, and, of your own, expose yourself to suffering.”

As He was saying this, I saw my good guardian Angel ready to crucify me, and I, of my own, stretched out my arms, and the Angel crucified me.  Oh! how good Jesus delighted in my suffering!  And how content I was, that such a miserable soul could give pleasure to Jesus!  It seemed a great honor for me to suffer for love of Him.

From the Calendar--April 30, 1932 Volume 30

But I was thinking to myself:  “But, how can it be that the creatures may come to live in the Divine Will, so as to form Its Holy Kingdom?”  And my beloved Jesus, surprising me, told me:  “My daughter, how little you are!  It shows how your littleness is incapable of rising in the power, immensity, goodness and magnanimity of your Creator; and from your littleness you measure Our greatness and Our liberality.  Poor little one—you get lost within Our interminable powers, and are incapable of attributing the right weight to Our divine and infinite ways.  It is true that, humanly speaking, for the creature, besieged by evils as she is, to live in My Will, to form Its Kingdom in their midst, is like wanting to touch Heaven with her finger—which is impossible; but what is impossible for men is possible for God.  You must know that the living in Our Will is a gift which Our magnanimity wants to give to creatures; and with this gift the creature will feel transformed—from poor, rich, from weak, strong, from ignorant, learned, from slave to vile passions, sweet and voluntary prisoner of a Will all holy, which will not hold him prisoner, but king of himself, of the divine dominions and of all created things.

“It will happen as to a poor man who is clothed in miserable rags, lives in a hovel, without doors and therefore exposed to thieves and enemies; he has not enough bread to satiate his hunger, and he is forced to beg for it.  If a king gave him a million as gift, the poor man would change his lot, and would no longer make the impression of a poor beggar, but of a lord who possesses palaces, villas, and dresses with decency, has abundant foods, and puts himself in the condition of being able to help others.  Who changed the lot of this poor man?  The million he has received as gift.  Now, if some wretched money has the virtue of changing the lot of a poor unhappy one, much more will the great gift of Our Will, given as gift, change the unhappy lot of the human generations, except for those who, willfully, want to remain in their unhappiness.  More so, since this gift was given to man in the beginning of his creation, and, ungrateful, he rejected it from Us by doing his will, withdrawing from Our own.  Now, those who dispose themselves to do Our Will prepare the place, the decency, the nobility in which to be able to put this gift, so great and infinite.  Our knowledges on the Fiat will help and prepare them, in a surprising way, to receive this gift, and what they have not obtained up to this day they will be able to obtain tomorrow.  Therefore I am acting as a king would, who would want to elevate a family to a bond of relationship with his own royal family.  In order to do this, first he takes a member of it, keeps her in his royal palace, raises her, dines with her, accustoms her to his noble manners, entrusts to her his secrets, and in order to make her worthy of himself, he makes her live of his will; and to be more sure and not to let her descend to the lowness of her family, he gives her his will as gift, that she may hold it in her power.”

From the Calendar--April 29, 1933 Volume 32

Then, I continued to think about the great good that the Divine Will brings to the creature, and my Sovereign Jesus added:  “My blessed daughter, you must know that Our love and ardent desire to keep the creature together with Us is so great, that as soon as she is created, We assign to her the royal place in Our Divine Will.  So, each creature has her place of honor in Our Divine Royal Palace, therefore her beginning, her first act of life, both in eternity and in time, is in Our Fiat.  She was not there in the world, and We loved her; and longing for her, We not only gave her her place, but placed Our love, Our sanctity, Our power, light and beauty as cortege around her.  She is the noble princess that descends from the height of the Heavens to cross the exile; but Our Will does not leave her, It descends together with her, It presses Itself around her, It crosses the exile together with her.  In each act that she does, in the pains, joys or encounters, It places Its prime divine act, that she may maintain her nobility and her state of princess.  And once It has filled her with all goods, to the point of having no more space in which to place more goods, It takes her up to Heaven again, to the heights of the spheres, and, as though triumphant, It points her out to the whole Celestial Court.  Here is what My Divine Will wants to do and knows how to do in the creature.  But, to Our sorrow, We see that as she descends into the exile, she no longer thinks about her royal place, or about the nobility of her origin, and she would want to slip away from Our Will which, more than tender mother, carries her clasped in her arms.  And making use of the doors of the senses that We gave her, she descends unto the lowest ground of her human will.  We had given these doors in order for her to ascend back to Us, so that she might make her little escapes from the exile into the bosom of her Creator; but she makes use of them to make her little escapes into miseries, weaknesses, passions, which disennoble her to the point that she can no longer be recognized as the princess of Heaven, but as the servant of the earth.  But, in spite of this, We do not close Our doors to her—which are Our love, Our paternal goodness, Our compassionate mercy, Our waiting for her—and as soon as We see that she closes her doors to come into Our Will, We go toward her, We open wide Our doors, and gazing upon her, from beautiful to ugly, with the garment of princess torn and dirty, We do not make it a reproach for her, but with compassion, all paternal, We say to her:  ‘Where have you been?  Poor daughter, how you have reduced yourself!  Did you see how much evil you have done by living at the low ground of your human will, disunited from Ours?  You have walked without guidance, without light, without food, without defense.  Therefore, don’t do it any more, so that, as We take you back, you may make up for the good lost.’  We know that the creature without Our Divine Will can do no good; it is as if she wanted to see without eyes, walk without feet, live without food.  Therefore, be attentive never to go out of My Divine Will if you want to find strength, light, support, and your very Jesus at your disposal.”

From the Calendar--April 28, 1926 Volume 19

[Jesus speaking] “Look at Creation—how My Will is whole in it.  And because It is whole, Creation remains always in its place and contains the fullness of that good with which it was created.  This is why it remains always new, noble, pure, fresh, and can share the good it possesses with all.  But the beautiful thing is that while it gives itself to all, it loses nothing, and remains always the same, just as it was created by God.  What has the sun lost by giving so much light and heat to the earth?  Nothing.  What have the azure heavens lost by remaining extended in the atmosphere, or the earth by producing so many and so various plants?  Nothing.  And so with all the things created by Me.  Oh! in what an admirable way does Creation sing that saying about Me:  ‘He is ever old and ever new.’  So, My Will in Creation is center of life, is fullness of good, is order and harmony; It keeps all things in the place wanted by It.  Where can you find a more beautiful example, a more perfect image of the living in My Will, if not in Creation?  This is why I call you to live in the midst of created things as their sister, that you may learn to live in the Supreme Volition, and you too may remain in the place wanted by Me, to be able to enclose within yourself the fullness of good that My Will wants to enclose in you, so that whoever wants it, may take of that good.  And since you are endowed with reason, you must surpass them all, and requite your Creator in love and glory for each created thing, as if they were all endowed with reason.  So, you will be the substitutor for all Creation, and Creation will be a mirror for you in which you can reflect yourself in order to copy the living in My Will, so that you may not move from your place.  It will be your guide and teacher, giving you the highest and most perfect lessons in the living in My Will.”

From the Calendar--April 26, 1921 Volume 12

I continue in my painful state.  My sweet Jesus came for just a little, and drawing me strongly to Himself, told me:  “My daughter, I repeat it to you—do not look at the earth; let us allow them to do what they want.  They want to make war—let them do it; when they get tired, I too will make My war.  Their tiredness in evil, their disenchantments, the disillusions, the losses suffered, will dispose them to receive My war.  My war will be war of love.  My Will will descend from Heaven into their midst; all your acts, and those of others done in My Volition, will wage war on the creatures—but not a war of blood; they will wage war with the weapons of love, giving them gifts, graces, peace.  They will give such surprising things as to astonish ungrateful man.  This Will of Mine, militia of Heaven, will confound man with divine weapons; It will overwhelm him, It will give him the light in order to see—not evil, but the gifts and the riches with which I want to enrich him.  The acts done in My Will, carrying the creative power within themselves, will be the new salvation of man; and descending from Heaven, they will bring all goods upon earth—they will bring the New Era, and the triumph over the human iniquity.  Therefore, multiply your acts in My Will to form the weapons, the gifts, the graces, so as to be able to descend into the midst of creatures and wage on them the war of love.” 

From the Calendar--April 25, 1922 Volume 14

Continuing in my usual state, I felt all immersed in the Divine Volition, and my sweet Jesus told me:  “My daughter, just as the sun does not leave the plant, but caresses it with its light, fecundates it with its heat until it produces fruits and flowers, and, jealous, it makes them mature, it guards them with its light; and only when the farmer picks the fruit to make of it his food, then does it leave it—the same for the acts done in My Will:  My love, My jealousy toward them is so great, that grace caresses them, My love conceives them, fecundates them and matures them.  I place thousands of Angels as custodians of one single act done in My Will.  In fact, since these acts done in My Will are seeds so that My Will may be done on earth as It is in Heaven, all are jealous of these acts.  Their dew is My breath; their shadow is My light.  The Angels remain enraptured by them and, reverent, they adore them, because in these acts they see the Eternal Will, which deserves all their adoration.  And only when I find other souls who, picking them as divine fruits, make of them food for their souls, then are these acts left.  Oh! the fecundity and multiplicity of these acts!  The creature herself who does them cannot count them.”

From the Calendar--April 24, 1927 Volume 21

I was feeling embittered because of the privation of my sweet Jesus, and while I was longing for His return, He came out from within my interior, but so afflicted as to arouse pity; and I said to Him:  “But, tell me, what’s wrong that You are so afflicted?”  And Jesus:  “Ah! My daughter, grave things are to happen.  In order to reorder a kingdom, a house, a general uproar happens first, and many things perish—some lose, others gain.  In sum, there is chaos, a greater struggling, and many things are suffered in order to reorder, renew and give a new shape to the kingdom, or the house.  There is more suffering and more work to do if one must destroy in order to rebuild, than if one only had to build.  The same will happen in order to rebuild the Kingdom of My Will.  How many innovations need to be made.  It is necessary to turn everything upside down, to knock down and destroy human beings, to upset the earth, the sea, the air, the wind, the water, the fire, so that all may put themselves at work in order to renew the face of the earth, so as to bring the order of the new Kingdom of My Divine Will into the midst of creatures.  Therefore, many grave things will happen, and in seeing this, if I look at the chaos, I feel afflicted; but if I look beyond, in seeing the order and My new Kingdom rebuilt, I go from a deep sadness to a joy so great that you cannot comprehend.  This is the reason why you see Me now sad and now with the joy of My Celestial Fatherland.”

[Jesus speaking] “You must know that, in creating man, God infused life in him with His breath; and in this life He infused in him an intelligence, a memory and a will, to place them in relationship with His Divine Will.  And this Divine Will was to be like a King, who was to dominate the whole interior of the creature and give life to everything, in such a way as to form the intelligence and the memory wanted by the Supreme Will in her.  Once this was formed, it would be as though natural for the eye of the creature to look at created things and to know their order and the Will of God over the whole universe.  Her hearing was to hear the prodigies of this eternal Will.  Her mouth, which was to feel itself breathed upon continuously by its Creator, to communicate to it the life and the goods which His Will contains, was to echo that eternal Fiat with its word, to narrate what Will of God means.  Her hands were to be the outpouring of the works of this Supreme Will.  Her feet were to do nothing but follow, step by step, the steps of her Creator.  So, once the Divine Will is established in the will of the creature, she has the eye, the hearing, the mouth, the hands, the feet, of My Will.  She never departs from the origin from which she came; therefore she remains always in My arms, and it is easy for her to feel My breath, and for Me to breathe upon her.  Now, this is precisely what I want from the creature:  that she let My Will reign in her, and that her will may serve as the dwelling of Mine, to let It deposit the celestial goods It contains.  And this is what I want from you, so that all your acts, marked by My Will, may form one single act; and uniting to the single act of My Will which has no multiplicity of acts, as in man, they may remain in that eternal beginning, in order to copy your Creator, and to give Him the glory and the contentment that His Will be done in you as It is in Heaven.”
