[Jesus speaking] “In fact, since the life of My Will is present in all Creation, she will form one single life for all created things, and since the life is one, she will understand their language and the relations existing with her Creator. Each created thing speaks of its Creator, and possesses the legible characters of My Divine Fiat. But do you know who it is that is capable of hearing their voice, of understanding their celestial speaking, and of reading the divine characters that each created thing has imprinted within itself? One who possesses My Will. She has the hearing to be able to listen to their voice, the intelligence to comprehend them, the eyes to read the divine characters that, with so much love, her Creator impressed within each created thing.”

From the Calendar--June 12, 1913 Volume 11

While I was praying, I was uniting my mind to the mind of Jesus, my eyes to those of Jesus, and so forth with everything else, with the intention of doing what Jesus did with His mind, with His eyes, with His mouth, with His Heart, and so forth. And as it seemed that the mind of Jesus, His eyes, etc. were spreading themselves for the good of all, it also seemed that I too was spreading myself for the good of all, uniting and identifying myself with Jesus.

Now I was thinking to myself: “What kind of meditation is this? What prayer? Ah, I am no longer good at anything! I am not even able to reflect on something!” While I was thinking of this, my always adorable Jesus told me: “My daughter, what? Are you afflicting yourself with this? Instead of troubling yourself you should be happy, because when you were meditating at other times, and many beautiful reflections arose within your mind, you did nothing other than take part in Me, in My qualities and in My virtues. Now since the only thing left to you is the opportunity of uniting and identifying yourself with Me, you take everything from Me. Unable to do any good by yourself, with Me you become good at everything, because desiring and wanting good produce strength in the soul which makes her grow, and which settles her in the Divine Life. Then, by uniting and identifying herself with Me, she unites with My mind, producing many lives of holy thoughts in the minds of the creatures; as she unites with My eyes, she produces many lives of holy glances in the creatures. In the same way, if she unites with My mouth, she will give life to the words; if she unites to My Heart, My desires, My hands, My steps, she will give a life for every heartbeat—life to desires, to actions, to steps… But holy lives, since I contain within Me Creative Power, and therefore the soul, together with Me, creates and does whatever I do.

“Now this union with Me—part to part, mind to mind, heart to heart, etc.—produces in you, in the highest degree, the life of My Will and of My love. The Father is formed in this Will, and the Holy Spirit in this Love; while the Son is formed by the operation, the words, the works, the thoughts, and by all the rest that can come from this Will and from this Love—here is the Trinity in the souls. In this way, if We need to operate, it is indifferent whether We operate within the Trinity in Heaven, or within the Trinity of the souls on earth.

“This is why I keep taking everything else away from you, although they may be good and holy things: to give you the best and the holiest—Myself; and to make of you another Myself, as much as this is possible for the creature. I believe you won’t lament any more, will you?” And I: “Ah, Jesus, Jesus! I feel, rather, that I have become awful bad; and the worst is that I am unable to find this badness of mine, so that, at least, I would do anything I can to cast it away.” And Jesus: “Stop, stop. Do not go too deeply into the thought of yourself. Think of Me, and I will take care of your badness too. Have you understood?”

From the Calendar--June 11, 1999 Volume 2

My sweet Jesus continues to make Himself seen only very few times, and almost always in silence. I felt my mind all confused and full of fear that I might lose my sole and only Good, and about many other things, which it is not necessary to say here. Oh, God, what pain! While I was in this state, He made Himself seen for just a little; He seemed to carry a light, and from that light many other little globes of light were coming out. Jesus told me: “Remove every fear from your heart. See, I have brought you this globe of light to place it between you and Me, and among those who approach you. For those who approach you with an upright heart and to do good to you, these little globes of light that come out, will penetrate into their minds, will descend into their hearts, will fill them with joy and with celestial graces, and they will comprehend with clarity that which I operate in you. Those, then, who will come with other intentions, will experience the opposite, and will be dazzled and confused by these little globes of light.” So I remained more tranquil. May everything be for the glory of God.

From the Calendar--June 10, 1935 Volume 33

[Jesus speaking] “Other than this, you must know that I created the whole universe in order to make a gift of it to creatures, and I remained in each created thing to rain Love over them. Now one who recognizes this gift as a great love that her Creator makes to her, the gift is hers, the rain of Our love is hers. So, giving it to Us again with all her being, she loves Us. We feel Ourselves matched by the love of the creature, and conquered by her love We give it again to her in order to find the continuous exchange of Our and of her love. And if you only knew how much I am content by it. And My love remains wounded in hearing you repeat that you want to love Me, and you love Me in each created thing. You love Me in My conception, in My birth, in every infantile tear—I feel it impearled for Me with your love. Every suffering, in every drop of blood, I feel the life of your love. And I, for exchange to you, in every thing that I dd in My life down here, I do nothing other than form a rain of love for you. O! If you could see how much love I pour over you. It is such as so much, that taken by the ardor of My love itself, I embrace and I kiss My love in you. And in seeing that you feel My embraces and My kisses, how content I am by it—and I await yours so as to be matched and reciprocated for such a love.”

From the Calendar--June 9, 1912 Volume 11

And Jesus: “My daughter, for the soul who does My Will and live in My Volition there is no death. Death is for one who does not do My Will, because he has to die to many things: to himself, to passions, and to the earth. But one who lives in My Will has nothing left to die for; he is already used to living in Heaven. For him, death is nothing other than setting down his remains, as one would remove the clothes of a poor one to wear the garments of a king, in order to leave exile and reach the Fatherland. The soul who lives in My Will is not subject to death and receives no judgment; his life is eternal. All that death had to do, love did in advance, and My Will reordered him completely in Me, so that I have nothing for which to judge him.

“Therefore, remain in My Will and, when you least expect, you will find yourself in My Will in Heaven.”

From the Calendar--June 8, 1927 Volume 22

[Jesus speaking] “ …with the soul who lives in Our Divine Will, We delight in showing her all Our acts, that appear as though being all present and in the act of being done. And We say to the soul: ‘Repeat Our act, so that what We do, you may do as well, so as to place the act of the Creator in common with the creature.’

“It happens as to someone who possesses many beautiful things, but keeps them under lock and key in separate rooms—no one knows that he has so many things of varied beauty. Now, a second person wins the favor of the first one, he proves to be faithful to him, nor is he capable of moving one comma of his will. He captures the heart of the first one, who feels his heart crack, because his love toward that person leads him with an irresistible force to show him the goods he possesses, and the variety and rarity of so many precious things. Therefore he opens the secret rooms and says to him, ‘I feel divided in love if I do not make you aware of my secrets, if I do not let you see what I possess, so that we may enjoy and possess together.’ Those things seem all new to the second one, because he had never seen things of that kind, but for the first those were ancient things.”

From the Calendar--June 7, 1928 Volume 24

So, Jesus had told me: “My daughter, how many prodigies of Ours concurred in creating man. With Our breath, the soul was infused in him, in which Our paternal goodness infused three suns, forming in it the perennial and refulgent day—not subject to any night. These three suns were formed by the Power of the Father, by the Wisdom of the Son, by the Love of the Holy Spirit. While being formed in the soul, these three suns remained in communication with the Three Divine Persons, in such a way that man possessed the way through which to ascend to Us, and We possessed the way through which to descend into him.

“These three suns are the three powers: intellect, memory, and will. While being distinct among themselves, they hold hands and arrive at forming one single power, symbol of Our adorable Trinity, which is such that, while We are distinct as Persons, We form one single Power, one single Intellect, and one single Will. Our Love in creating man was so great, that only when We communicated Our likeness to him—then did Our love feel content. …”

From the Calendar--June 6, 1926 Volume 19

[Jesus speaking] “…Had I wanted to free you of original sin as I did with My Celestial Mama, so that My Will might take life in you, no one would have given a thought to letting My Will reign within himself.  They would have said:  ‘One needs to be a second Mother of Jesus and to have Her privileges so that the Life of the Supreme Will might reign in us.’  On the other hand, by knowing that you are from their stock, conceived just like them, if they want it, helped by their own good will they too will be able to know the Supreme Will—what they must do to let It reign within them, the good that comes to them, the terrestrial and celestial happiness prepared in a distinct way for those who will let My Will reign.  My Redemption was to serve to plant the tree of My Will which, watered with My Blood, cultivated and hoed with My sweats and unheard-of pains, fertilized with the Sacraments, first would make the tree develop, then would make the flowers bloom, and finally would make the celestial fruits of My Will mature.  And in order to make these precious fruits mature, the course of My thirty-three years was not enough, nor were the creatures prepared and disposed to receive a food so delicate, all of Heaven, which I was giving.  Therefore I contented Myself with planting the tree, leaving all possible means to make it grow, beautiful and gigantic; and at the appropriate time, as the fruits are about to mature and so that they may be picked, I chose you in a way all special, to make known to you the good it contains, and how I want to raise the creature back to her origin.  Banishing her will, the cause for which she descended from her happy state, she will eat of these precious fruits, which will give her such taste as to remove from her all the infection of passions and of her own will, and give back the dominion to My Will.  Embracing everything as though in one single embrace, My Will will unite everything together:  Creation, Redemption, and the fulfillment of the purpose for which all things were created—that is, that My Will be known, loved and done on earth as It is in Heaven.”

From the Calendar—June 5, 1931 Volume 29

[Jesus speaking] “…The human will is the true prison of the creature, and is clever in the art of being able to form many small rooms—but all without windows, because it is not skilled at forming openings in order to receive the good of light.  Therefore, passions, weaknesses, fear, excessive worries, inconstancy, are as many dark rooms of its prison, and she remains now hampered in one, now in another; and fear makes her fear and move away from the one is laying down his life for love of her.  On the other hand, one in whom My Will reigns lives in My royal palace, in which there is so much light, that the pains, the humiliations, the calumnies, are nothing other than stairs of triumphs and of glory, and completion of great and divine works.  So, instead of running away from the poor martyr who has been cast into dust by the human perversity, she draws closer to him, waiting with patience for the hour of the new triumph.  Oh! if My Will had reigned fully in the Apostles, with certainty they would not have run away in an hour in which I felt the need of their presence, of their faithfulness in My so many pains.  In the midst of enemies who wanted to devour Me, I wanted My faithful ones close to Me, because there is no greater comfort than having a friend close in time of bitternesses.  I would have seen in My dear Apostles, close to Me, the fruits of my pains, and—oh! how many sweet memories would have arisen in My Heart, which would have been balm for Me in My intense bitternesses.  My Divine Will, with Its light, would have prevented their step from running away, and therefore they would have drawn closer around Me.  But since they lived in the dark prison of the human will, their mind was obscured, the heart became cold, fear invaded them—in one moment they forgot about all the good they had received from Me.  And not only did they run away from Me, but they dispersed themselves from one another—all effects of the human will, which does not know how to maintain union, and knows only how to disperse in one day the good that one has done in many years, with many sacrifices.  Therefore, may your only fear be that of not doing My Will.”

From the Calendar—June 4, 1918 Volume 12

Continuing in my usual state, I was saying to my beloved Jesus:  “Do not disdain my prayers; it is Your own words that I repeat, Your own intentions—souls that I want, just as You want them, and with your own Will.”  And blessed Jesus told me:  “My daughter, when I hear you repeat My words, My prayers, wanting as I want, I feel drawn toward you, as though by many magnets.  And as I hear you repeat My words, My Heart feels many distinct joys, and I can say that it is a feast for Me.  And while I enjoy, I feel debilitated by the love of your soul, and I do not have the strength to strike the creatures.  I feel in you the same chains that I put on the Father in order to reconcile mankind.  Ah! yes, repeat what I did—repeat it always, if you want that your Jesus, in the midst of so many bitternesses, may find one joy on the part of creatures.”

Then He added:  “If you want to be safe, repair always, and repair together with Me.  Identify yourself with Me so much, as to form one single echo of reparations between Me and you.  Wherever there is reparation, the soul is as though under shelter, where she is protected from cold, from hail and from everything.  But where there is no reparation, it is like being out in the middle of the street, exposed to lightnings, to hail and to all evils.  Times are most sad, and if the circle of reparations does not expand, there is the danger that those who remain uncovered may be struck by the lightnings of Divine Justice.”

From the Calendar—June 3, 1925 Volume 17

[Jesus speaking] “Ah! My daughter, in spite of Redemption and the work of Sanctification, the sanctity in man is incomplete, and for some it is as though useless.  This says that if man does not turn back in order to take My Will as life, as rule and as food, to be purified, ennobled, divinized, and to take the first act of Creation, so as to take My Will as his inheritance, assigned to him by God, the very works of Redemption and Sanctification will not have their copious effects.  So, everything is in My Will—if man takes It, he takes everything.  It is one single point, which embraces and encloses the goods of Redemption and of Sanctification.  Even more, for one who lives in My Will, because he has taken the first point of Creation, all these goods serve him, not as remedy, as for those who do not do My Will, but as glory and as his special inheritance, carried upon earth by the Will of the Celestial Father in the Person of the Word.  And if I came upon earth, the first act was precisely this: to make known the Will of My Father, in order to bind It again to the creatures.  The pains, the humiliations, My hidden life and the whole immense sea of the pains of My Passion, were remedies, medicines, supports, light, in order to make My Will known, because, with this, I would have man, not only saved, but holy.  With My pains I placed him in safety; with My Will I gave him back the sanctity lost in the terrestrial Eden.  Had I not done this, My love, My work, would not have been complete as they were in Creation, because My Will alone has the virtue of rendering complete Our works toward the creatures, and the works of the creatures toward Us.  My Will makes one think differently; It makes one look at My Will in all created things, speak with the echo of My Will, operate through the veils of My Will.  In a word, one does everything, all at once, according to My Supreme Volition, while the other virtues act slowly, little by little.  My Redemption Itself, without the first act of My Will, serves to dress the deepest wounds; as medicine for man, so as not to let him die; as antidote, so as not to let him fall into hell.  Therefore, take to heart My Will alone, if you really want to love Me and make yourself a saint.”

From the Calendar--June 2, 1921 Volume 13

And I [Luisa]: “My Love, this sacrifice is too hard; at the mere thought that all that passed between You and me has to come out, I feel I am dying and my heart cracks for the pain. If I wrote, it was only to obey and for fear that You might be displeased; and now look into what a maze obedience is throwing me. My Life, have pity on me, and put Your holy hand in this.”

And Jesus: "My daughter, if I want this sacrifice, you must be ready to make it—you must deny Me nothing. Now, you must know that, in coming upon earth, I came to manifest My Celestial doctrine, to make known My Humanity, My Fatherland, and the order which the creature had to maintain in order to reach Heaven—in a word, the Gospel. But I said almost nothing or very little about My Will. I almost passed over It, only making them understand that the thing which I cared the most was the Will of My Father. I said almost nothing about Its qualities, about Its height and greatness, and about the great goods which the creature receives by living in My Volition, because the creature was too much of an infant in Celestial things, and would have understood nothing. I just taught her to pray: ‘Fiat Voluntas Tua, sicut in coelo et in terra,’ so that she might dispose herself to know this Will of Mine in order to love It, to do It, and therefore receive the gifts It contains. Now, that which I was to do at that time—the teachings about My Will which I was to give to all—I have given to you. So, making them known is nothing but making up for what I Myself was to do while on earth as the fulfillment of My Coming. Don’t you want Me, then, to fulfill the purpose of My coming upon earth? Therefore, let Me do; I will watch over everything and dispose everything—and you, follow Me and be at peace."

From the Calendar--June 1, 1922 Volume 14

Finding myself in my usual state, I was following the Hours of the Passion of my sweet Jesus, especially when He was presented to Pilate, who asked Him what His Kingdom was. And my always lovable Jesus told me: "My daughter, that was the first time in My terrestrial Life that I dealt with a gentile authority, who asked Me what My Kingdom was. And I answered him that My Kingdom is not of this world, for if it were of this world, thousands of legions of Angels would defend Me. But with this, I opened my Kingdom to the gentiles, and communicated My celestial doctrines to them; so much so, that Pilate asked me: ‘How it this—You are King?!’ And immediately I answered him: ‘I am King, and I have come into the world to teach the Truth...’ With this, I wanted to make My way into his mind in order to make Myself known; so much so that, touched, he asked Me: ‘What is the Truth?’ But he did not wait for My answer; I did not have the good of making Myself understood. I would have said to him: ‘I am the Truth; everything is Truth in Me. Truth is My patience in the midst of so many insults; Truth is My sweet gaze among so many derisions, slanders, contempts. Truths are My gentle and attractive manners in the midst of so many enemies, who hate Me while I love them, and who want to give Me death, while I want to embrace them and give them Life. Truths are My words, full of dignity and of Celestial Wisdom—everything is Truth in Me. The Truth is more than majestic Sun which, no matter how much they try to trample on it, rises more beautiful and bright, to the point of shaming its very enemies, and of knocking them down at its feet.

“Pilate asked Me with sincerity of heart, and I was ready to answer. Herod, instead, asked Me with malice and curiosity, and I did not answer. Therefore, to those who want to know holy things with sincerity, I reveal Myself more than they expect; but with those who want to know them with malice and curiosity, I hide Myself, and while they want to make fun of Me, I confuse them and make fun of them.

“However, since My Person carried the Truth with Itself, It performed Its office also in front of Herod. My silence at the stormy questions of Herod, My humble gaze, the air of My Person, all full of sweetness, of dignity and of nobility, were all Truths—and operating Truths."

From the Calendar--May 31, 1926 Volume 19

[Jesus speaking] “… By losing this unity of light, Adam turned himself upside down and formed night, weaknesses, passions, for himself and for the generations.  By never doing Her own will, this excelling Virgin [Mary] remained always straight, and facing the Eternal Sun; therefore it was always daylight for Her, and She made the day of the Sun of Justice arise for all generations.  If this Virgin Queen had done nothing else but preserve the unity of the light of the Eternal Volition in the depth of Her immaculate soul, this would have been enough to give Us back the glory of all, the acts of all, and the requital of love of all Creation.  Through Her, by virtue of My Will, the Divinity felt come back to Itself, the joys and the happiness which It had established to receive through Creation.  Therefore She can be called the Queen, the Mother, the Foundress, the Base and the Mirror of My Will, in which all can reflect themselves to receive Its Life from Her.”

From the Calendar--May 30, 1932 Volume 30

After this, the crowd of my thoughts on the Divine Will went on; and since I had received Holy Communion, I thought to myself:  “What difference is there between the Sacraments and the Divine Will?”  And my Sovereign Jesus, breaking His Eucharistic veils, made Himself seen, and heaving a sorrowful sigh, told me:  “My blessed daughter, the difference between one and the other is great.  The Sacraments are effects of My Will; while My Will is life, and, as life, with Its creative power It forms and gives life to the Sacraments.  The Sacraments do not have the virtue of giving life to My Will, because My Will is eternal, nor does It have a beginning or an end.  On the other hand, My adorable Will occupies always the first place in all things, and possessing the creative virtue by Its own nature, It creates things and Its very life wherever It wants, when It wants and the way It wants.  It can be said that the difference is like a simile between the sun and the effects that the sun produces:  these do not give life to the sun, but receive the life of the sun and must remain at its disposal, because the life of the effects is produced by the sun.  And then, the Sacraments are received in time, places and circumstances:  Baptism is given only once and never again; the Sacrament of Penance is given when one falls into sin; My very Sacramental Life is given only once a day.  And in this gap of time the poor creature does not feel upon herself the strength, the help of the baptismal waters that regenerate her continuously, nor the sacramental words of the priest that fortify her in a continuous way, by saying to her:  ‘I absolve you from your sins.’  Nor does she find, in her weaknesses and trials of life, her Sacramental Jesus for her to take at all hours of the day.  On the other hand, My Divine Will, possessing the primary act of life and the capacity to give life, with Its empire, holds the continuous act over the creature.  In each instant It gives Itself as life—life of light, of sanctity, of love, life of fortitude; in sum, with It as life there are no times, circumstances, places, hours; there are no restrictions, nor any law, especially since It must give life, and life is formed with continuous acts, not at intervals.  And therefore, in the ardor of Its love, with Its continuous empire, it can be said that It is continual Baptism, absolution never interrupted, and communion of each instant.  More so, since this Will of Ours was given to man in the beginning of his creation as perennial life dwelling in him.

“This was the substance, the fruit of Creation—Our Will that was to form Our life in the creature.  With this life We gave everything, there was nothing he might need which he would not be able to find in this Will of Ours.  It can be said that he would have at his disposal anything he might want:  help, strength, sanctity, light—everything was placed in his power; and My Will took on the commitment to give him anything he wanted, as long as he would give It dominion and would let It dwell in his soul.  Therefore, it was not necessary to institute the Sacraments when man was created, because in My Will he possessed the origin and the life of all goods. …”

From the Calendar--May 29, 1924 Volume 16

I was thinking of when my sweet Jesus went back to Heaven in His glorious Ascension, and therefore of the sorrow of the Apostles in remaining without such a great good; and my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:  “My daughter, the greatest sorrow for all of the Apostles, in their entire lives, was to remain without their Master.  As they saw Me ascend to Heaven, their hearts were consumed with the pain of My privation; and much more was this pain sharp and penetrating, since it was not a human pain, something material that they were losing—but a divine pain:  it was a God that they were losing.  And even though I had My Humanity, as It resurrected, It was spiritualized and glorified, therefore all the pain was in their souls; and penetrating their whole beings, it caused them to feel all consumed with grief, to the point of forming in them the most harrowing and painful martyrdom.  But all this was necessary for them.  It can be said that until that moment, they were nothing but tender babies in virtues and in the knowledge of divine things, and of My very person.  I could say that I was in their midst but they did not really know Me, nor love Me.  But when they saw Me ascend into Heaven, the pain of losing Me tore the veil, and they recognized Me with such certainty as the true Son of God, that the intense sorrow of no longer seeing Me in their midst gave birth to firmness in good and strength to suffer anything for love of the One whom they had lost.  It gave birth to the light of divine science; it removed from them the swaddling clothes of their infancy, and it formed them as intrepid men—no longer fearful, but courageous.  The pain transformed them and formed in them the true character of Apostles.  What they could not obtain with My presence, they obtained with the pain of My privation. …”

From the Calendar--May 28, 1904 Volume 6

Continuing in my usual state, and with highest bitterness because of the continuous privations of my adorable Jesus, He made Himself seen for just a little, telling me:  “My daughter, the first bomb which must be primed in the interior of the soul is mortification.  When this bomb is thrown into the soul, it knocks everything down and immolates everything to God.  In fact, in the soul there are as though many palaces, but all of vices, such as pride, disobedience, along with many other vices; and the bomb of mortification, knocking everything down, rebuilds as many other palaces of virtues, immolating them and sacrificing them all to the glory of God.”  Having said this, He disappeared.

From the Calendar--May 27, 1938 Volume 36

I feel the need to enclose myself inside the Divine Volition to continue my life in It.  Oh!, how I would love to be imprisoned in Its light, so that I could neither see nor hear anything else but what regards Its Will.  Then my beloved Jesus, coming back to visit my poor soul, all love told me: “My blessed daughter, I want you here, imprisoned in My Will, so that no other things can have life in you.  Now, you must know that all the harmony of the creature is in the repetition of her good acts done in My Will.  A single act does not form any harmony or beauty, but many continuous acts united together call the attention of God, Who puts Himself in waiting for the acts of the creature.  As she performs them, He communicates to her, now beauty, now sanctity, now goodness, wisdom or love.  In sum, He provides her with His ornaments and divine qualities.  All the acts repeated by the creature form the strength of her soul, binding God even more to herself.  They form Heaven in the depth of the soul and as she goes on repeating her acts, some are turned into star, others into wind blowing whispers of love, others become a sea continuously murmuring love, glory, adoration to God the Creator.  In sum, the whole atmosphere is reproduced in her.  However, when the acts are not continuously repeated, they lack that unifying power that gives strength to all; they lack that divine mode of acting unceasingly, sustaining each of them with creative strength in perennial attitude of doing and redoing again.  

“Furthermore, a single act has never formed any sanctity because it has no strength; it does not possess the life of love, since true love never says ‘enough’ — never stops — and if it does, it’s dead.  Only continuously repeated acts can send good surprises to Heaven where, as one arriving act is being enjoyed, another one follows and more and more arrive forming the enchantment for the Heavenly Fatherland.  Therefore, in My Will there is always something to do and time can’t be wasted.” 

From the Calendar--May 26, 1927 Volume 21

After this, I was thinking to myself:  “Jesus loves His Will so much, and it seems that He so much yearns for It to be known, so that It may dominate and reign.  But it seems difficult to me that the Divine Will may be known, because there is no one who occupies himself with It, nor is anyone interested.  All the interest is of Jesus, but in creatures it does not exist.  So, if these creatures neglect to give this great glory to God as well as to hold out the fullness of all goods to creatures, how can the Kingdom of the Eternal Fiat ever become known?”

Now, while I was thinking of this, my sweet Jesus moved in my interior and told me:  “My daughter, that which seems difficult to you is not difficult for God, just as in Redemption there were no difficulties for God, nor could all the human perfidy hinder the course of Our love, and even less the fulfillment of Our decision to come to redeem mankind.  When the Divinity decides to do an act, to accomplish a work, whatever the causes, the circumstances, the impediments might be, It triumphs of everything, It conquers everything, and It does that which It has established.  So, the culminating and important point for God is in establishing what He wants to do; once He has done this, He has done everything.  Therefore, if in Us it is established that Our Will must be known and that Its Kingdom will come upon earth, it is as though already done.  Just as Redemption was accomplished, because It was established by Us, so it will be done for Our Will; more so, since this, Its Kingdom, was issued by the Divinity in Creation—fully in order, so that It might reign and dominate; and with the fall of man this Kingdom was not destroyed, but remained intact—and It still exists; only, It remained suspended for man.  In Redemption I smoothed everything out, and just as I did everything so that man might be redeemed, so I did everything so that this suspension be removed, and the creature might enter into the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat—first, giving place to Redemption, and then, with time, giving place to My Will.  So, what is difficult is to form a kingdom, a work; but once it is done, it becomes easy to make it known.  More so, since your Jesus does not lack power; I may lack wanting to do or not do a work, but power I never lack.  I will dispose things, circumstances, creatures, events, in such a way as to make it easy for My Will to become known.”

From the Calendar--May 25, 1909 Volume 9

Continuing in my usual state, blessed Jesus was not coming; however, for the whole day I felt as if there were someone over me, who would not let me waste one minute of time, but would keep me always in continuous prayer.  A thought wanted to distract me by saying to me:  “When the Lord does not come, you pray more, you are more attentive, and by this you yourself give Him the field not to come, because the Lord may say:  ‘Since she behaves better when I do not go, it is better if I deprive her of Me.’”  

Since I could not waste time in listening to what my thought was saying, in order to shut the door on its face, I said:  “The more He does not come, the more I will confound Him with love.  I don’t want to give Him the occasion—this is what I can do, and this is what I want to do; and He is free to do whatever He wants.”  And without thinking of the nonsense that my thought had told me, I continued to do what I was supposed to do.

In the evening, however, I didn’t even remember about this.  Blessed Jesus came, and almost smiling at me, He told me:  “Brava, brava, My lover, who wants to confound Me with love!  However, I tell you:  you will never confound Me; and if sometimes it seems that I am confounded with love, it is I who give you the freedom to do it, because the only relief and the thing which I most enjoy from creatures is love.  In fact, it was I who solicited you to pray, who prayed with you, who gave you no respite.  So, instead of Me being confounded, I confounded you with love; and since you felt all filled with love and were confounded by it, in seeing that My Love was pouring so much into you, you thought you were confounding Me with your love.  However I tell you:  as long as you try to love Me more, I delight in these mistakes of yours, and I make of them a joke between Me and you.”
