After this, I continued thinking: “And why has the Lord so much interest, and He loves so much that His Holy Will be known and reign in the midst of creatures?”
And my sweet Jesus added: “My daughter, because the first purpose, act and end of Creation was that Our Divine Will alone reign; and in order for It to reign, it is necessary to know It. It was Our Will that entered the field of action in Creation, that imposed Itself on the ‘nothing’ with Its creating Fiat, and created heavens, suns and many beautiful works—and also man. And in all the works It created It placed the seal of Its omnipotent Fiat as the indelible sign that It would remain inside each of Its works as ruling King inside his Kingdom.
“So, the purpose of Creation was not Our Power, Our Goodness, Our Justice, Our Immensity, and the like; and if all of these, Our attributes, concurred in It, it was as consequence, not as purpose. And if We do not obtain the purpose, it is for Us as if We had done nothing; and since all created things were made for man, and man for Us, here is why, by necessity of love, by right of justice, for the honor and decorum of Ourselves and of all Our works, and as the fulfillment of Our purpose, We want Our Divine Will to reign in man as origin, life and end of his whole being.
“If you knew how much My Fiat suffers in looking at man; It looks at him, and says in Its sorrow: ‘I made him, truly, with My creative hands; he is My work, he is truly the one whom I so much delighted in creating. Yet, I am not inside of him as in My Kingdom; he broke My seal, and putting Me out, he destroys for Me the purpose for which I gave him life.’
“See then, how it is of absolute necessity that My Divine Will be known and reign; and until It does, Our most beautiful works cannot produce for man the goods that they contain; the very work of Redemption is without fulfillment.”
From the Calendar--September 23, 1929 Volume 27
I was doing my usual round in the Creation, to follow all the acts that the Supreme Volition had done in all created things; and my sweet Jesus, coming out from my interior, told me: “My daughter, when the creature goes through the works of her Creator it means that she wants to recognize, appreciate, love, what God has done for love of her; and having nothing to give Him in return, while going through His works she takes the whole Creation as though in the palm of her hand, and she gives It back to God, intact and beautiful, for His glory and honor, saying to Him: ‘I recognize You, I glorify You by means of Your own works, that alone are worthy of You.’
“Now, Our delight in seeing Ourselves recognized in Our works by the creature is such and so great, that We feel as if the Creation were being repeated again, to give Us double glory; and since this double glory is given to Us because the creature recognizes Our works done for love of them and given to them as gift so that they would love Us, by recognizing Our gift, the creature encloses the all in the Heaven of her soul, and We see, within her littleness, Our Divine Being with all Our works. More so since, Our Divine Fiat being present in the littleness of this creature, she has capacity and space to be able to enclose the All, and—oh! prodigy, to see the All enclosed in the human littleness, and to see her, brave, giving the All to the All, only to love Him and glorify Him.
“That the All of Our Supreme Being be the All—there is nothing to be surprised about, because such is Our Divine Nature— to be All. But the All in the human littleness is the wonder of wonders; these are Prodigies of Our Divine Volition, that wherever It reigns It cannot make of Our Divine Being a being by half, but the whole of It. And since the Creation is nothing other than an outpouring of love of Our creating Fiat, wherever It reigns It encloses all Its works, and therefore the human littleness can say: ‘I give God to God.’ This is why, then, when We give Ourselves to the creature, We want everything—even her nothing, so that upon her nothing Our Creative Word may be repeated, and We may form Our All over the nothing of the creature. If she does not give Us everything—her littleness, her nothing—Our Creative Word cannot be repeated, nor is it decorous and an honor for Us to repeat it; because when We speak, We want to get rid of anything that does not belong to Us; and when We see that she does not give herself completely, We do not make her Our own, and so she remains the littleness and the nothing that she is, while We remain with the All that We are.”
From the Calendar--September 22, 1910 Volume 9
This morning, continuing in my usual state, blessed Jesus came for just a little and told me: "My daughter, each virtue is a heaven that the soul acquires. Therefore, as many virtues as she acquires, so many heavens does she keep forming, and these heavens defeat all human inclinations, destroy that which is earthly, and make the soul wander through the purest auras, through the holiest delights, through the celestial fragrances of the highest good, anticipating for her part of the eternal joys." And He disappeared.
From the Calendar--September 21, 1912 Volume 11
This morning my always adorable Jesus made Himself seen with unspeakable sweetness and affability, as if He wanted to tell me something very dear to Him and very surprising for me. So, hugging me and pressing me to His Heart, He told me: "My beloved daughter, all the things that the soul does in My Will and together with Me — prayers, actions, steps, etc. — acquire My same qualities, the same life and the same value. See, all the things that I did upon earth — prayers, sufferings, works — are all in action, and will remain in eternity for the good of whoever wants them. My work differs from the work of the creatures. Containing within Myself the creative power, I speak and I create, just as one day I spoke and created the sun. It is as if this sun, which is always full of light and heat that never decreases, remained in the act of receiving continuous creation from Me. Such was My work on earth. Since I contain the creative power within Me, the prayers, the steps, the works which I did, and the blood which I shed remain in continuous act of praying, working, walking, etc., just as the sun is in continuous act of giving light. Therefore, My prayers continue, My steps are always in the act of running after souls; and so on with the rest. Otherwise, what would be the great difference between My work and the work of My Saints?
“Now, My daughter, listen to a beautiful — beautiful thing, not yet understood by creatures: all the things that the soul does together with Me and in My Will are like My own things; and they remain as her own. The connection of My Will and the work done together with Me participate in My same creative power." I remained ecstatic, with a joy that I could not contain, and I said: “Is all this possible, O Jesus?” And He: "Whoever does not understand this can say that he does not know Me." And He disappeared. But I cannot say it well, and I don’t know how to explain myself better. Who can tell all that He made me understand? Rather, it seems to me that I’ve just said nonsense.

Then, after this, I was doing my usual acts in the Supreme Will, and since the day was almost dawning, I was saying: “My Jesus, my Love, the day is now beginning, and in Your Will I want to go around through all creatures, so that, in rising from their sleep, they may all rise in Your Will, to give You the adoration of all intelligences, the love of all hearts, the rising of all their works and of all their beings into the light that this day will make shine over all generations.”
From the Calendar--September 19, 1999 Volume 2
After this, He [Jesus] showed me His Heart, which contained three distinct globes of light, which then formed a single one. And Jesus, resuming His speech, told me: "The globes of light which you see in My Heart are the Faith, the Hope and the Charity which I brought upon earth to make suffering man happy by offering them to him as gift. Now, to you also I want to give a more special gift." And while He was saying this, many threads of light came out of those globes of light, which inundated my soul like a sort of net, and I remained inside of it. And Jesus: "Here is how I want you to occupy your soul. First, fly upon the wings of Faith, and in that light, by plunging yourself into it, you will know and acquire ever more news about Me, your God; but by knowing Me more, your nothingness will feel almost dissolved, and you will have no place to lean on. You, however, rise more, and dive into the immense sea of Hope, which is made of all My merits that I acquired in the course of My mortal life, and of all the pains of My Passion, which I also gave to man as gift. Only through these can you hope for the immense goods of Faith, because there is no other way to obtain them. So, as you avail yourself of these merits of mine as if they were your own, your ‘nothing’ will no longer feel dissolved and sinking into the abyss of nothingness, but acquiring new life, it will be embellished and enriched, in such a way as to draw the very divine gazes upon itself. Then the soul will no longer be timid, but Hope will administer to her courage and strength, in such a way as to render her stable like a pillar exposed to all the intemperances of the air, which are the various tribulations of life, and which do not move her a tiny bit. And Hope will cause the soul not only to immerse herself without fear into the immense riches of Faith, but to make herself the owner of them; and through Hope she will reach such a point as to make God Himself her own. Ah, yes! Hope makes the soul reach wherever she wants; Hope is the door of Heaven — only by means of It can it be opened, because one who hopes for everything, obtains everything. Then, after the soul has reached the point of making God Himself her own, immediately, without any obstacle, she will find herself in the immense ocean of Charity, and carrying Faith and Hope with her, she will immerse herself in it and will form one single thing with Me, her God."
Most loving Jesus continued: "If Faith is the king, Charity is queen, and Hope is like the peacemaking mother who pacifies everything. In fact, with Faith and Charity there may be disturbance, but Hope, being bond of peace, converts everything into peace. Hope is support, Hope is refreshment; and when the soul, rising by means of Faith, sees the beauty, the sanctity and the love with which she is loved by God, and feels drawn to love Him, but in seeing her insufficiency, how little she does for God, and how she should love Him but does not, she feels discomforted, disturbed and almost does not dare to draw near God – immediately this peacemaking mother comes out, and placing herself between Faith and Charity, she begins to perform her office of peacemaker. She makes the soul peaceful again, she pushes her, raises her, gives her new strengths; and carrying her before King Faith and Queen Charity, she excuses the soul, she places a new effusion of her merits before the soul, and she prays them to receive her. And Faith and Charity, with their gazes fixed only on this peacemaking mother, so tender and compassionate, receive the soul, and God forms the delight of the soul, and the soul the delight of God."

I was thinking over what has been written on the living in the Divine Volition, and I prayed to Jesus that He would give me more light, to be able to clarify more this blessed living in the Divine Will to those to whom I am obliged to do so. And my sweet Jesus told me: "My daughter, unfortunately they are slow in understanding it. To live in My Will is to reign in It and with It, while to do My Will is to be submitted to My orders. The first state is to possess; the second is to receive dispositions, and execute commands. To live in My Will is to make My Will one’s own, as one’s own property, and to dispose of It. To do My Will is to take It into account as Will of God, not as one’s own thing; nor can one dispose of It as he wants. To live in My Will is to live with one single Will – That of God; and since It is a Will all holy, all pure, all peaceful, being one single Will that reigns, there are no contrasts: everything is peace. Human passions tremble before this Supreme Will, and would rather escape It; nor do they dare to even move, or oppose it, in seeing that Heaven and earth tremble before this Holy Will. Therefore, the first step of living in the Divine Will, which allows a creature to receive the Divine order, is in the depth of the soul, where grace moves her to empty herself of what is human – tendencies, passions, inclinations and other things.
“On the other hand, to do My Will is to live with two wills, in such a way that when I give orders to follow Mine, the creatures feel the weight of their own will, which causes contrasts. And even though they follow the orders of My Will with faithfulness, they feel the weight of their rebellious nature, of their passions and inclinations. How many saints, although they may have reached the highest perfection, feel their own will waging war against them, keeping them oppressed. And many are forced to cry out: ‘Who will free me from this body of death?’– that is, ‘from this will of mine, that wants to give death to the good I want to do?’
“To live in my Will is to live as a son. To just do My Will would be called, in comparison, living as a servant. In the first case, what belongs to the Father belongs to the son; and then, it is well known how servants are forced to make more sacrifices than sons do. They have to expose themselves to more tiring and more humble services, to cold, to heat, to traveling on foot, and the like.
“In fact, how much did My saints not do, though most beloved friends of Mine, in order to execute the orders of My Will? Instead, a son remains with his father, takes care of him, cheers him up with his kisses and caresses; he gives orders to the servants as if his father were ordering them; and if he goes out, he doesn’t walk, but travels in a coach. And while the son possesses all that belongs to his father, the servants are given only the recompense for the work they have done, remaining free to serve their master or not; and if they do not serve, they no longer have a right to receive any further compensation. On the other hand, nobody can remove those intimate relations between father and son, by which the son possesses the goods of the father; and no law, either celestial or terrestrial, can cancel these rights, just as it cannot unbind sonship between father and son.
“My daughter, the living in My Will is the living that is closest to the blessed of Heaven. It is so distant from one who is simply conformed to My Will and does It, faithfully executing Its orders — as much as Heaven is distant from the earth, as much as the distance between a son and a servant, and between a king and a subject. Moreover, this is a gift which I want to give in these times, so sad — that they may not only do My Will, but possess It. Am I perhaps not free to give whatever I want, when I want, and to whom I want? Isn’t a master free to say to his servant: ‘Live in my house, eat, take, command as another myself’? And so that nobody may prevent him from possessing his goods, he legitimizes this servant as his own son, and gives him the right to possess. If a rich man can do so, much more can I do it.
“This living in My Will is the greatest gift I want to give to the creatures. My Goodness wants to show off more and more love toward creatures, and since I gave them everything, I want to give them the gift of My Will, so that in possessing It, they may appreciate and love the great good they possess.
“And don’t be surprised if you see that they do not understand. In order to understand, they would have to dispose themselves to the greatest of sacrifices – that of not giving life, even in holy things, to their own will. Then would they feel the possession of Mine, and would touch with their own hands what it means to live in My Will. You, however, be attentive, and do not be bothered by the difficulties they raise; little by little I will make My way, to make them understand the living in My Will."

I felt all invested by the Supreme Volition, that, drawing me into Its immense light, made me see the order of Creation—how each thing remained at the place assigned by its Creator. My mind wandered and was enraptured at seeing the order, the harmony, the magnificence, the beauty of the whole Creation; and my sweet Jesus, who was with me, told me: “My daughter, everything that came out of Our creative hands, each created thing, was assigned its place and its distinct office, and all of them remain at their place, magnifying with incessant praises that Eternal Fiat that dominates them, preserves them, and gives them new life. So, their preserving themselves ever beautiful, whole and new, is the motion of the Supreme Fiat dominating in them.
“Man also was assigned his place, his office of sovereign over all created things; with the difference that, while all other things created by Us remained just as God had created them—without ever changing, neither increasing nor decreasing—My Will, giving man supremacy over all the works of Our hands, and wanting to show off even more with him in love, gave him the office to grow continuously in beauty, in sanctity, in wisdom, in richness, to the point of raising him to the Likeness of his Creator—always provided, however, that he would let himself be dominated and guided, to give the Supreme Fiat free field in order to form Its Divine Life in him, so as to be able to form this continuous growth of goods and of beauty, with happiness without end. …”

After this, having to write what Jesus had told me, I found it almost impossible; and as I tried the first, the second, the third time, and seeing that I could not manage, I thought to myself that blessed Jesus no longer wanted me to write, and therefore I too should not want it. So I dismissed the thought of trying harder; but then I wanted to try again, and I seemed to manage—and with even greater ease than other times. So I thought to myself: “And why so many sacrifices, so many difficulties, attempts and new attempts to write, without managing to do it; and after so many difficulties, doing it with ease?”
And my sweet Jesus, coming out from within my interior, told me: “My daughter, do not be concerned. I wanted to take pleasure from you a little bit, and to enjoy the sweetness squeezed out of your sacrifices. As you tried to write and could not manage, and tried again, I felt wounded by your love in wanting to sacrifice yourself to fulfill My Divine Will for you to write; and I, to take pleasure from your wounds, rendered you incapable of keeping your eyes open in order to write. So, don’t you want your Jesus to amuse Himself with you and to enjoy a little bit?
“Moreover, you must know that the sacrifice made to fulfill My Will forms pure, noble and Divine Blood for the soul, just as food forms blood for the body; and I, dipping My brush of love in this blood, amuse Myself in forming in her, more beautiful, more charming, My image in the creature. Therefore, let Me do; and you, think only of doing My Divine Will, and I will do something more beautiful in the little newborn of My adorable Will.”

This morning my adorable Jesus came all glorious, with His wounds more refulgent than suns, and with a cross in His hand. In the meantime I also saw a wheel with four sections of it leaning out, while it seemed that another section shunned the light and remained in the dark. In this darkening the people remained as though abandoned by God, and bloody wars would happen against the Church and against themselves. Ah, it seemed that the things said by blessed Jesus in the past are approaching at a fast pace! Now, on seeing all this, moved to compassion, Our Lord drew near the dark part, and He cast the cross He had in His hand upon it, saying with sonorous voice: "Glory to the cross!" And it seemed that that cross would call back the light, and the peoples, stirring themselves, would implore help and aid. Jesus repeated: "All the glory and triumph will be of the cross, otherwise the remedies will make the very evils worse. Therefore, the cross, the cross!" Who can say how afflicted I was left, and concerned for what might happen?

This morning I was outside of myself and I saw baby Jesus within a mirror, so very clear and large, such that I could see Him very well from any point at which I would place myself. I made a sign with my hand for Him to come to me, and Jesus made a sign that I should go to Him. In the meantime, I saw many devout people and priests, as though placing themselves between me and Him, and they were talking about me. I would not pay attention to them – my aim was my sweet Jesus. However, He came out from within that mirror, all in a hurry, and wanted to beat those who were talking, saying to them: "Nobody touch her – because when one touches one who loves Me, I feel more offended than if he were touching Me directly. I will show you how I know how to take the part of one who gives herself completely to Me, and of her innocence," and He clasped me with one arm, while threatening them with the other. I did not care at all that they would speak ill of me; I was only sorry that He wanted to beat them, and I said to Him: “My sweet Life, I do not want anyone to suffer because of me, and from this I will know whether You love me — if You calm Yourself with them and do not beat them; otherwise, I will be discontent.” So it seemed that He calmed Himself, and He pulled me away from the midst of those people, taking me into myself.
As I continued to see Him, no longer as a child, but crucified, I said to Him: “My adorable Good, since when You suffered the crucifixion all souls had a place in Your Humanity, what was my place?” And He: "My daughter, the place of the loving souls was in My Heart. As for you, then, in addition to keeping you in My Heart, since you were to cooperate in Redemption with your state of victim, I kept you in all of My members, as help and relief."
From the Calendar--September 13, 1926 Volume 19
[Jesus speaking] “This is why I push you so much to go around in all Our works – Creation and Redemption – so that you may place the share of your acts, your ‘I love You’, your adoration, your gratitude, your ‘thank You’ upon all Our works. Many times I have done this together with you; and then, as the fulfillment, after your round in Our Will comes your refrain, so pleasing to Us: ‘Supreme Majesty, Your little daughter comes before You, on Your Paternal knees, to ask You for Your Fiat, Your Kingdom, that It be known by all. I ask You for the triumph of Your Will, that It may dominate and reign over all. I am not the only one who asks this of You, but with me are your works and Your very Will. Therefore, in the name of all, I ask – I plead for your Fiat.’ If you knew what a breach in Our Supreme Being is this refrain of yours! We feel We are being prayed by all Our works, beseeched by Our very Will; Heaven and earth pray on their knees to ask Us for the Kingdom of the Eternal Will. Therefore, if you want It, continue your acts, so that, by reaching the established number, you may obtain what you long for with so much insistence.”
From the Calendar--September 12, 1931 Volume 29
After this, I continued to pray before the tabernacle of Love, and in my interior I said to myself: “What do You do, my Love, in this prison of love?”
And Jesus, all goodness, told me: “My daughter, do you want to know what I do? I do My day. You must know that My whole life, spent down here, I enclose within one day. My day begins by being conceived and being born; the veils of the sacramental accidents serve Me as swaddling clothes for My tender age. And when, because of human ingratitude, they leave Me alone and try to offend Me, I do My exile, left with only the company of some loving soul who, like a second mother, cannot detach herself from Me and keeps Me faithful company.
“From the exile I move on to Nazareth, doing My hidden life in the company of those few good who surround Me. And continuing My day, as creatures draw near to receive Me, I do My public life, repeating My evangelical scenes, offering to each one My teachings, the helps, the comforts that are necessary for them; I act as Father, as Teacher, as Doctor, and, if needed, also as Judge. So, I spend My day waiting for all and doing good to all. And—oh! how many times I have to remain alone, without a heart that would palpitate near Me. I feel a desert around Me, and I remain alone—alone praying. I feel the loneliness of My days that I spent in the desert down here, and oh! how painful it is for Me—I, who am heartbeat for all in each heart; jealous, I guard everyone— feeling isolated and abandoned.
“But My day does not end with the sole abandonment; there is not one day that ungrateful souls do not offend Me and receive Me sacrilegiously, and make Me complete My day with My Passion and with My death on the cross. Ah! it is sacrilege the most ruthless death that I receive in this Sacrament of Love. So, in this tabernacle I do My day by carrying out everything I carried out in the thirty-three years of My mortal Life. And just as in everything I did and do, the prime purpose, the prime act of life, is the Will of My Father—that It be done on earth as It is in Heaven—so in this little host I do nothing other than implore that one be My Will with My children. And I call you in this Divine Will, in which you find My whole Life in act; and you, by following it, ruminating it and offering it, unite yourself with Me in My Eucharistic day, to obtain that My Will be known and reign upon earth. And so you too will be able to say: ‘I do my day together with Jesus.’”
From the Calendar--September 11, 1922 Volume 14
[Jesus speaking] “Now, the fulfillment of the work of creation was that man would do Our Will in everything. Our Will was to be the life, the food, the crown of the creature; and since it is not yet so, the work of creation is not yet fulfilled, and neither can I rest in It, nor can It rest in Me. It gives Me always something to do, and I yearn for this fulfillment and rest. This is why I love and want so much that the way of living in My Will be known; nor will I ever be able to say that the works of creation and redemption are fulfilled if I do not have all the acts of the creature extending in My Will like a bed to give Me rest. And I — what beautiful rest shall I not give to her in seeing her coming back on the wings of Our Will with the seal of the fulfillment of creation? My womb will be her bed.
“Therefore, there is nothing I did, which did not have as primary purpose that man take possession of My Will and I of his. This was My primary purpose in creation; the same in redemption. The sacraments I instituted, the many graces given to My saints, have been the seeds, the means, to let man reach this possession of My Will. Therefore, neglect nothing of what I want about My Will, both with writing, and with words, and with works. From this alone you can know that the living in My Will is the greatest thing, the most important, that which interests Me the most: from the so many preparations that have preceded It. And do you want to know where this seed of My Will was sown? In My Humanity. In It, it germinated, was born and grew. This seed can be seen in My wounds, in My Blood, wanting to be transplanted into the creature, so that she may take possession of My Will and I of hers, and so that the work of creation may return to the origin from which It came, not only through My Humanity, but also through the creature herself.
“They will be few – be it even one alone: was it not one alone, he who withdrawing from My Will disfigured and broke My plans, and destroyed the purpose of creation? In the same way, one alone can adorn It and fulfill Its purpose. However, My works never remain isolated; so I will have the army of the souls who will live in My Will, and in them I will have my creation restored — all beautiful and striking, just as It came out of My hands. Otherwise, I would not have so much interest in making My Will known."

I continue to do what blessed Jesus taught me on the 4th of this month, even though sometimes I get distracted. But when sometimes I forget, it seems that Jesus places Himself on guard in my interior and does it Himself for me. On seeing this, I blush and immediately I unite myself with Him, and I make the offering of what I am doing at that moment. Be it even a gaze, or a word, I keep saying: “Lord, all the glory which creatures should give You with their mouths, but do not, I intend to give You myself with my mouth, and I impetrate for them to make good and holy use of the mouth, by uniting myself always with the very mouth of Jesus.” Now, while I was doing this in all my things, He came and told me: "This is the continuation of My life, which was the glory of the Father and the good of souls. If you persevere in this, you will form My life, and I yours; you will be My breath, and I yours."
After this, Jesus placed Himself in order to rest upon my heart, and I upon His Heart, and it seemed that Jesus would draw His breath from me, and I would draw mine through Jesus. What happiness, what joy, what celestial life I experienced in that position! May the Lord be always thanked and blessed, who uses so many mercies with this sinner.

Continuing in my usual state, I felt disturbed because of the absence of my adorable Jesus. Then, after I struggled very much, He came and told me: “My daughter, as soon as the soul goes out of the depths of peace, she goes out of the divine sphere and finds herself either in the diabolical or in the human sphere. It is peace alone that reveals whether the soul seeks God for God or for herself, whether she operates for God or for creatures. In fact, if she does it for God, the soul is not disturbed; it can be said that the peace of God and the peace of the soul combine together, and the boundaries of peace expand around the soul, in such a way that everything converts into peace, even wars themselves. But if the soul is disturbed, be it even in the holiest things, it shows after all that it was not for God, but for her own self or for some human purpose. Therefore, when you do not feel calm, call yourself a little to see what actually is in there; destroy it, and you will find peace.”
From the Calendar--September 8, 1929 Volume 26
[Jesus speaking] “This celestial baby girl, by keeping Our Divine Will intact within her soul, without ever doing her own, reacquired all the rights of Adam innocent before her Creator, and the sovereignty over all creation. Therefore, all felt themselves being reborn in her, and We saw in this Holy Virgin, in her little Heart, all the seeds of the human generations. So, through her, humanity reacquired the rights lost, and this is why her birth was the most beautiful, the most glorious birth. From her very birth, she enclosed within her maternal little Heart, as though in-between two wings, all generations, as children reborn in her virginal Heart, so as to warm them, keep them sheltered, and raise them and nourish them with the blood of her maternal Heart.
“This is the reason why this tender Celestial Mother loves creatures so much—because all are reborn in her, and she feels the life of her children within her Heart. What can Our Divine Will not do wherever It reigns and has Its life? It encloses everything and everyone, and makes one the provider of good to all. So, all feel, under her blue mantle, the maternal wing of their Celestial Mother, and they find in her maternal Heart their little place in which to take cover. …”
From the Calendar--September 7, 1931 Volume 29
And I: “My Love, a thought afflicts me—I fear I may lack the continuation of my acts in Your Divine Will, and as I would interrupt the sound of my bell, You, offended by me, might put me aside, and will not give me any more grace to make me live in Your Will.”
And Jesus added: “My daughter, do not fear; you must know that one step gives life to another step, one good is life and support of another good, one act calls to life another act; and even evil, sin, is life of other evils and of other sins. Things never remain isolated, but almost always have their succession. Good is like the seed, that possesses the generative virtue; as long as one has the patience to sow it into the bosom of the earth, it will produce ten—twenty times as much. The same for the creature; if she has patience and remains attentive to enclose in her soul the seed of the good that she has done, she will have the generation, the multiplicity—one hundredfold, of the good acts that she has done. And if you knew what it means to do a good act! Each act is a protection that she acquires, and a voice speaking before Our throne of the one who has done a good. For each additional act of good, so many more defenders does the creature have for her defense; and if the circumstances of life cause her to find herself in such constraints and trials that it seems that she might want to vacillate and fall, the good acts that she has done take on the appearance of assailers, and they assail Us, so that the one who has loved Us and has had a succession of many good acts may not vacillate; and they run around the creature as supporters, that she may not give up in the trial. And suppose that there had been a sequence of acts done in Our Will—oh! then in each act there is a Divine value and virtue defending the creature. We see in each of her acts Our Will as though engaged, therefore We Ourselves make Ourselves defenders and supporters of she who has given life in her acts to Our Divine Fiat. Can We perhaps deny anything to Ourselves? Or disregard Our Will operating in the creature? No, no. Therefore, do not fear, but rather, abandon yourself like a little newborn in Our arms, that you may feel Our support and the protection of your very acts. …”

I was fusing all of myself in the Holy Will of my sweet Jesus, and I said to Him: “My Love, I enter into Your Will, and here I find all the thoughts of Your mind and all those of creatures. I surround Your thoughts with my thoughts and with those of all my brothers, and then I unite them together, making them one in order to give You the homage, the adoration, the glory, the love, the reparation of Your own Intelligence.”
While I was saying this, my Jesus moved in my interior, and standing up, told me: "Inseparable daughter of My Will, how happy I am in hearing repeated what My Humanity did in My Will. And I kiss your thoughts in Mine, your words in Mine, your heartbeat in Mine." And as He was saying this, He covered all of me with kisses. Then I said to Him: “My Life, why do You enjoy so much and make feast every time You manifest another effect of Your Will?” And Jesus: "You must know that every time I manifest to you one more truth about My Will, it is one more bond that I form between you and Me, and with the whole human family. It is a greater union; it is a tighter link; it is sharing My inheritances; and as I manifest them I form the deed of donation, and in seeing My children richer and sharing in the inheritance, I feel new contentments and I make feast. …”

[Jesus speaking] “You must know that as the creature enters Our Will, everything is transformed: darkness is turned into light, weakness into fortitude, poverty into riches, passions into virtue. Her mutation is such that she is not the same as before; her state is no longer one of a most wicked slave, but of a noble queen. Our Divine Being loves her so much that It runs into her acts to do whatever she does, and since Our motion is continuous, We move and love her—move and hug her. Our motion moves and kisses her, making her more beautiful and more the saint. In every motion We give from Ourselves and, in the emphasis of Our love We tell her about Our Supreme Being, making known who We are and how much We love her. We identify Ourselves in her and she in Us. Our Will and her will are one—to the extent that We feel her in Our divine motion, and as she takes what is Ours, she loves Us with Our love; she gives Us Our inaccessible light to glorify Our sanctity—to praise Us and say: ‘Holy, Holy, trice Holy are You. You enclose all; You are all.' How beautiful it is to see the human smallness inside of Our Will, having in its power Our Divine Being, to give it back to Us, to love Us and glorify Us as We want and justly deserve. In Our Will the parts become equal; dissimilarities disappear. Our unity unites everything and everyone, making one the acts of all, to become the act of all.”
