I was fusing myself in my sweet Jesus, but I saw myself as so miserable that I didn’t know what to tell Him. And my always lovable Jesus, to console me, told me: "My daughter, neither past nor future exist for one who does My Will, but everything is in a present act. Everything I did and suffered is in a present act, in such a way that, if I want to give satisfaction to the Father, or do good to the creatures, I can do it, as if I were in the very act of suffering and operating. In the same way, all that the creature can suffer and do in My Will is already identified with My pains and works, and they become one. So, when the soul wants to give Me a proof of love with her pains, she can take the pains suffered at other times, which are in act, and give them to Me, in order to replicate her love, her satisfactions for Me. And in seeing the industriousness of the creature who places her acts as if on a counter in order to multiply them and collect the interest, to give Me love and satisfactions, I give her My pains and My works multiplied, so as to enrich her and not to be outdone in love, to love her and to be loved."

After this, I continued with the other Hours of the Passion, and while I was following the Eucharistic Supper, my sweet Jesus moved in my interior, and with the point of His finger, He knocked strongly within my interior, so much so, that I heard Him with my ears, and I said to myself: “What may Jesus want, that He is knocking?” And He, calling me, told me: "It was not enough to knock for you to hear Me, but also to call you so as to be listened to. Listen, My daughter: while I instituted the Eucharistic Supper, I called everyone around Me, I looked at all generations, from the first to the last man, in order to give My Sacramental Life to all — and not once, but as many times as they need food for their bodies. …”

I was accompanying my suffering Jesus in the hours of the His most bitter Passion, especially when Jesus was presented to Pilate by the Jews, and was accused; and Pilate, not satisfied with the simple accusations they were making against Him, returned to question Him in order to find a reason sufficient to condemn Him or to release Him. And Jesus, beginning to speak in my interior, told me: “My daughter, everything in My Life is profound mystery and sublime teachings in which man must reflect himself in order to imitate Me. You must know that the pride of the Jews was so great — especially in the false sanctity they professed, because of which they were held as upright and conscientious men — that they believed that by just presenting Me themselves, and by saying that they had found Me at fault and guilty to death, Pilate would have to believe them and condemn Me without making them undergo any interrogation; more so, since they were dealing with a gentile judge, who had no knowledge of God, nor a conscience.
“But God disposed things differently in order to confuse them and to teach superiors that, as good and holy as the people who charge a poor accused one may appear, they should not believe them easily, but should almost overwhelm them with many interrogations, to see whether there is truth, or rather, under that appearance of goodness, there is some jealousy, rancor, or the intention to snatch some aspired position or dignity from their superiors by making their way into their hearts. Scrutiny makes one know people, it confuses them, and shows that one does not trust them. And in seeing themselves not appreciated, they dismiss their thought of aspiring to positions or of accusing others. How much harm superiors do when, keeping their eyes closed, trusting in false goodness and not in proven virtue, they assign a position or pay heed to someone who is accusing someone else of some fault. How humiliated the Jews were left in not being easily believed by Pilate, in going through many interrogations. And if he surrendered to condemning Me, it was not because he believed them, but because he was forced to, and so as not to lose his position. This confused them so much that their extreme confusion and profound humiliation remained impressed on their foreheads like a mark; more so, since they noticed more rectitude and more conscience in a gentile judge than in themselves. How necessary and just scrutiny is — it casts light and calm into the true good, and confusion into the evil.
“And when, wanting to scrutinize Me also, Pilate asked Me: ‘Are You king? And where is your kingdom?’ I wanted to give another sublime lesson by saying: ‘I am King.’ And I wanted to say: ‘But do you know what My Kingdom is? My Kingdom is My pains, My Blood, My Virtues. This is the true Kingdom which I possess, not outside of Me, but within Me. What one possesses on the outside is not a true kingdom, nor a safe dominion, because that which is not inside of man can be taken away, usurped, and he will be forced to leave it. But that which he has inside, no one will be able to take away from him — its dominion will be eternal within him. The characteristics of My Kingdom are My wounds, the thorns, the Cross. I do not act like the other kings who make their peoples live outside of them, unsafe, and eventually, even starving. Not Me — I call My peoples to dwell inside the rooms of my wounds, fortified and sheltered by My pains, their thirst quenched by My Blood, their hunger satisfied by My Flesh. This alone is true reigning; all other reigns are reigns of slavery, of dangers and of death, while in My Reign there is true life.’
“How many sublime teachings, how many profound mysteries in My words. Each soul should say to herself, in pains and in sufferings, in humiliations and in abandonments by all, and in practicing true virtues: ‘This is my kingdom, which is not subject to perishing. No one can take it away from me or touch it. On the contrary, my kingdom is eternal and divine, similar to that of my sweet Jesus. My sufferings and pains certify it for me and render my kingdom more fortified and fierce, in such a way that, in the face of my great strength, no one will be able to wage battle against me.’ This is the Kingdom of peace, to which all My children should aspire.”

Continuing in my usual state, I found myself outside of myself, inside a Church, and since I could not find my adorable Jesus I went to knock at a Tabernacle to have Him open it for me. Since He would not open, made brave, I myself opened it and I found my sole and only Good. Who can say my contentment? I remained as though ecstatic in looking at an unspeakable beauty. On seeing me, Jesus flung Himself into my arms and told me: "My daughter, each period of My life receives from man distinct and special acts and degrees of imitation, of love, of reparation and other things. But the period of My Eucharistic Life is all life of hiddenness, of transformation and of continuous consummation; so much so, that I can say that after My love reached the excess and was even consumed, in My infinite wisdom I could not find any other external sign to prove My love for man. And just as My Incarnation, Life and Passion on the cross receive love, praise, thanksgiving, imitation — My Sacramental Life receives from man an ecstatic love, a love of dissolving oneself in Me, a love of perfect consummation; and as the soul is consumed in My very Sacramental Life, she can say that she performs, before the Divinity, the same offices that I perform continuously before God for love of men. And this consummation will make the soul overflow into eternal life."

I was saying to my beloved Jesus: “Jesus, I love You, but my love is small; so I love You in your Love, to make it big. I want to adore You with Your adorations, pray in Your prayer, thank You in Uour thanksgivings.” Now, while I was saying this, my lovable Jesus told me: "My daughter, as you placed your love in Mine in order to love Me, your love remained fixed in Mine, and it became longer and larger within Mine — and I felt I was being loved the way I would want the creature to love Me. And as you adored in my adorations, and prayed, and thanked, these remained fixed in Me — and I felt I was being adored, prayed and thanked with My adorations, prayers and thanksgivings. Ah, My daughter, great abandonment in Me is needed! As the soul abandons herself in Me, I abandon Myself in her; and filling her with Myself, I Myself do all that she must do for Me. But if she does not abandon herself, all that she does remains fixed in her, not in Me, and I feel the work of the creature as full of imperfections and miseries — which cannot please Me."

I was doing my usual acts in the Supreme Volition, and I thought to myself: “How is it possible that among the many Saints of the Old Testament who have so distinguished themselves with the power of miracles, like a Moses, an Elijah and the many prophets; and among so many Saints after the coming of Our Lord, who have rendered themselves so marvelous because of their virtues and miracles – none of these has possessed the Kingdom of the Divine Will and has lived in the Unity of Its light? It seems incredible.” Now, while I was thinking of this, my sweet Jesus came out from within my interior, and clasping me to Himself, told me: “My daughter, yet it is really true that until now no one has possessed the Kingdom of My Will or enjoyed all the fullness of the Unity of the Light It contains. Had it been so, since it is the thing that interests Me the most, that glorifies Me the most and that, no less, will place all the Divine Rights in safety and will complete the work of Creation and Redemption — and not only this, but will bring to the creature the greatest good that can exist in Heaven and on earth — I would have acted in such a way as to make it known. Just as I have made known the many virtues and wonders of My Saints, I would have made known the one who had possessed the Kingdom of My Will, which I hold so dear, so as to transmit It to others, by imitating the one who had possessed It.
“Now, the Saints of the Old Testament found themselves in the same condition as Adam: a Divine Repairer was missing who, while rejoining the human will and the Divine, was to pay the debt of guilty man in a Divine way. However, both the ancient Saints and the modern ones have taken of My Will as much as they have known. The very miracles they performed were particles of the power of My Will communicated to them. So, all My Saints have lived, some in the shadow of My Will, some in the reflections of Its light, some submitted to Its power, some to the order of Its commands, because there is no sanctity without My Will. But they have possessed of It the little they have known — no more, because only when a good is known, does one then long for it and arrives at possessing it. No one can possess a good, a property, without knowing it; and suppose one did possess it without knowing it – that good is as though dead for him, because the life of knowledge is missing. …”

As I was outside of myself, I saw the Queen Mother, and prostrating myself at Her feet, I said to Her: “My most sweet Mother, in what terrible constraints I find myself – deprived of my only Good and of my very Life. I feel I am touching the extremes.”
While saying this, I was crying, and the Most Holy Virgin, opening Herself at the place of Her Heart, as if She were opening a tabernacle, took the Baby from within it and gave Him to me, telling me: "My daughter, do not cry – here is your Good, your Life, your All. Take Him and keep Him always with you; and as you keep Him with you, keep your interior gaze fixed on Him. Do not be embarrassed if He does not tell you anything, or if you are unable to say anything. Just look at Him in your interior, and by looking at Him you will comprehend everything, you will do everything, and you will satisfy for all. This is the beauty of the interior soul: without voice, without education, since there is no external thing that attracts her or upsets her, but all of her attraction, all of her goods are enclosed in her interior, by simply looking at Jesus she easily comprehends everything and does everything. In this way, you will walk up to the top of Calvary; and once we reach it, you will no longer see Him as a Baby, but Crucified, and you will remain crucified together with Him."
So it seemed that, with the Baby in my arms and together with the Most Holy Virgin, we walked the way of Calvary. While walking, at times I would find someone who wanted to take Jesus away from me, and I would call the Queen Mother to my help, saying to Her: “My Mama, help me, for they want to snatch Jesus away from me.” And She would answer me: "Do not fear, your care must be in keeping your interior gaze fixed on Him. This has so much power, that all other powers, human and diabolical, remain debilitated and defeated." Now, while we were walking, we found a temple in which Holy Mass was being celebrated. At the time of Holy Communion I flew to the altar with the Baby in my arms in order to receive Communion; but what was not my surprise when, as soon as Jesus Christ entered into me, He disappeared from my arms. Then, after a little while, I found myself inside myself.

And, all moved, He repeated: “How beautiful she is! How beautiful is the newborn of My Will. In her littleness she would want to engage in a competition with her Creator; she would want to give Him the occasion to always smile, and with childlike surprises capture Him so as to be always gazed upon, to show Him the long generation of her children.”
From the Calendar--June 28, 1923 Volume 15
I was thinking of the immense love of my most sweet Jesus, and He let me see all creatures, as though bound inside a net of love, and He said to me: “My daughter, in creating man, I cast into him many seeds of love; in his intelligence, in his eyes, in his word, in his heart, in his hands, in his feet — in everything I placed the seed of love. And I was to work it from outside, and together with Me I placed all created things in order to make this seed sprout and grow according to My Will. Having been placed by an eternal God, this seed was also eternal; so, man contains an eternal Love within himself, and an eternal Love goes toward him constantly, to receive the return of the seeds of its eternal Love cast into man, and to give him new and eternal Love. In fact, I wanted to be inside of man as seed, and outside of him as worker, to form in him the tree of My eternal Love. What would be the good for man to have eyes filled with light, if he did not have an external light to illuminate them? He would remain always in the dark. So, in order to enjoy the effect of the light, it takes the internal light of the eye as well as the external light of the sun which illuminates it. The same for the mind: if he had no speech to express his thought, the life of his intelligence would die and would be without fruit; and so with all the rest.
“I loved man so much that I not only cast into him this seed of My eternal Love, but I put him under the waves of My eternal Love which is spread throughout the whole creation, in order to make it germinate in him and to overwhelm him completely within My eternal Love. So, if the light of the sun shines in his eyes, it brings him the wave of My Love; if he takes water to quench his thirst, or food to nourish himself, they bring him the wave of My eternal Love; if the earth lays itself under his feet and remains firm to allow his step, it brings him the wave of My Love; if the flower gives off its fragrance, if the fire unleashes its heat, everything brings him My eternal Love. But this is not enough; I Myself am with them, working inside and outside, to arrange, to confirm and to seal all My similes in the soul of man, so that, as I give him eternal Love, eternal Love he may give to Me. So, the creature also can love Me with eternal Love, because he contains the seed of it. But to My highest sorrow, man suffocates this seed, and then it happens that even though My Love keeps him under its waves, he does not feel the light which My Love brings him, because, having suffocated the seed, he has become blind; even though he burns, he does not get warm, and as much as he may drink and eat, his thirst is not quenched, nor is he nourished. Where there is no seed, there is no fecundity.”

I continue to be sleepy. This morning, for a few minutes I found myself awake and I comprehended my miserable state; I felt the bitterness of the privation of my highest and only Good. I was able only to shed a few tears, saying to Him: “My always good Jesus, how is it that You are not coming? These are not things to do: to wound a soul and then leave her! And what is more, so as not to let her know what You are doing, You leave her prey to sleep. O please! come, do not make me wait so much!”
While I was saying this and yet more nonsense, in one instant He came and transported me outside of myself; and since I wanted to tell Him about my poor state, imposing silence on me, Jesus told me: “My daughter, what I want from you is that you no longer recognize yourself in yourself, but that you recognize yourself only in Me. So you will no longer remember yourself, nor will you ever again have recognition of yourself, but you will remember Me, and un-recognizing yourself, you will acquire the recognition of Me alone. According to how much you will forget and destroy yourself, so will you advance in the knowledge of Me and will recognize yourself only in Me. Once you have done all this, you will no longer think with your mind, but with mine; you will not look with your eyes, you will no longer speak with your mouth, nor will you palpitate with your heart, work with your hands, or walk with your feet, but will do everything with mine. In fact, in order to recognize herself only in God, the soul needs to go to her origin and to return to her beginning – God, from whom she came — and to conform all of herself to her Creator. And anything which she keeps of herself and which is not conformed to her beginning, she must undo and reduce to nothing. Only in this way, naked, undone, can she return to her origin, recognize herself only in God, and operate according to the purpose for which she was created. This is why in order to conform to Me completely, the soul must render herself indivisible with Me.”
While He was saying this, I could see the terrible chastisement of plants withered, and how it must advance further. I could only say: “Ah, Lord, how will the poor people go on?” And He, so as not to listen to me, escaped me like a flash and disappeared. Who can say the bitterness of my soul in finding myself inside myself, not having been able to speak to Him even one word for myself and for my neighbor; and for my tendency to sleep with which I was again left?

I was doing the usual round in the Divine Fiat, and while going around throughout the whole Creation, I thought to myself: “How much light and heat must my Creator have within Himself, if He released so much of them in creating the sun? Oh! how He must feel Himself burn with His own heat as He contains so much of it.”
But while I was thinking of this, my sweet Jesus moved in my interior and told me: “My daughter, in Our things there is perfect and equal measure of everything. So, as much as is the Love, the Heat, the Light, so much is the Freshness, the Beauty, the Power, the Sweetness, etc. One is the weight of everything, and therefore Heat is nourished by Freshness, and Freshness by Heat; Light is nourished by Beauty, and Beauty nourishes Light, in such a way that one tempers the other. Strength nourishes Sweetness, and Sweetness Strength, and so with all the rest of Our Divine things, in such a way that each of them makes Us happy.
“By themselves, Our Qualities would oppress Us, but, together, being in perfect equality, they serve Us as happiness, as joys and as contentments, and they all compete to make Us happy. Heat brings Us the happiness of Love, and Freshness brings Us the joys of what is Beautiful, of what is Fresh. Light brings Us the joy of Light, and Beauty, tempering the vividness of Light, brings Us the happiness of what is Beautiful, Good, Holy, Immense; it braids all of Our Qualities and renders them all Beautiful, Lovable and Admirable for Us. Strength brings Us the happiness of the Strong, and Sweetness, invading it completely, brings Us the joys mixed with Sweetness and Strength. And everything that can be seen in Creation is nothing other than outpourings of the abundance of Light, of Heat, of Freshness, Beauty and Strength that We possess within Ourselves; and these outpourings were released by Us in order to nourish and delight the creatures with Our own outpourings, in such a way as to render them happy; and by dint of nourishing themselves with Our Qualities, creatures would become similar to Us, and would be bearers of happiness and of joys to their Creator.
“How beautiful it was to be, to see them luminous like sun; beautiful, more than flowery field and starry sky; strong like mighty wind; pearled with Divine freshness in such a way as to remain always new and fresh, without changing. Our Will would bring them all Our outpourings united together, that are such that one delights the other. But because man withdrew from the Supreme Fiat, he receives Our outpourings as separate from one another, and this is why the heat burns him, the light eclipses him, the cold makes him numb, the wind harms him, and many times it knocks him down and hurls him away. Not seeing in man the facsimile of his Creator, or the bond of union with the Divine Fiat, Our Qualities act as separate over him, and he does not receive the Happiness that they contain as united.
“Therefore, with My Will, the creature would have been the happiest being, while, without It, she is the unhappiest.”

This morning I was thinking to myself that I felt as though stopped, without moving either forward or backward; and I said: “Lord, I myself cannot say what I feel. But after all, I will not afflict myself; whether I am behind, or still, or ahead, as long as I am in Your Will I am always fine. In whatever point or in whatever way I may be, Your Will is always holy, and in whatever way I will be in It, I will always be fine.”
In the meantime, blessed Jesus came for a little while, and told me: "My daughter, courage, do not fear if you feel stopped; but be careful to make your stops in My Will, without going out of My Volition at all. I too make My stops in It, but then, in a twinkling of an eye I do more than I have not done for years and years. See, according to the world, it seems that I have stopped, because since it deserves to be severely chastised and I am not doing it, it seems that I am not in motion; but if I take the rod in My hand, you will see how I will make up for all the stops. The same for you: remaining always in My Will, if you see that My Will wants you stopped, then stop and enjoy My Will; if you see that My Will wants you to walk, then walk – but walk always in My Volition, because by walking in My Will you will walk with Me, and will have the same Will of My walking. Therefore, remain always at the order of My Will, whether still or in motion, and you will always be fine."

“Now I want to tell you another Surprise. As the creature enters into Our Will, not only of what We have done in Creation, in Redemption, in everything, does she remain enriched in an admirable way with the Works of her Creator, but she gives Us New Glory, as if Our Works were being repeated again. Everything that We have done passes through the channel of the creature, in which it is Our Will that this would happen, and We feel repeated to Us, in virtue of It, the Glory as if We were to extend a New Heaven, We were to Operate a New Creation. And as We feel her come into Our Volition, We welcome her, and overflowing with New Love We tell her: ‘Come, touch with your hand what We have done. Our Works are Living for you, not dead, and by knowing them you will repeat the New Glory and the New Exchange of Love.’
“It is true that Our Works praise Us and glorify Us by themselves, rather We Ourselves are who praise and glorify Ourselves continually. But in Our Will the creature gives Us something more, she gives Us her will operating in Our Works, her intelligence in order to know them, and her love in order to Love Us. So We feel the glory that a human will repeats for Us the glory, as if Our Works were being repeated. Therefore I want you always in My Divine Fiat in order to receive Its Secrets and drink in large sips Its Admirable Knowledges. By being known Life is communicated, the Works are repeated, and the Purpose is obtained.”

As I was in my usual state, blessed Jesus came for just a little, and told me: "My daughter, Love is not subject to death. There is no power, there are no rights over Love. Love is eternal, and one who loves is eternal with Me. Love fears nothing, doubts about nothing, and converts evils themselves into Love. I Myself am Love, and I love so much one who loves Me in everything and who does everything out of Love, that woe to those who touch him! I will make them be burned by the fire of My terrible Justice."

I was bringing the whole human family to my sweet Jesus, according to my usual way, praying, repairing, substituting in the name of all, for everything that each one is obliged to do. But as I was doing this, a thought told me: “Think about and pray for yourself — don’t you see in what a pitiful state you have reduced yourself?” And I was almost about to do so, when my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior and pulling me to Himself, told me: "My daughter, why do you want to move away from My likeness? I never thought about Myself — the sanctity of My Humanity was total unselfishness. I did nothing for Myself; rather, I did and suffered everything for the creatures. My Love can be called true, because it is founded on disinterest for My own self. Wherever there is interest, one cannot say that there a source of truth. On the other hand, the soul with no self-interest is the one who advances the most; and as she advances, the sea of My Grace reaches her from behind, inundating her in such a way that she remains completely submerged, without even thinking about it. One who thinks about herself, instead, is last; the sea of My Grace is in front of her, and she is the one who has to cross the sea by the armful — if she manages at all. In fact, the thought of herself will create many obstacles for her, such as to strike into her the fear of diving into My sea; and she runs the risk of remaining on the shore."
From the Calendar--June 21, 1923 Volume 15
I was doing my usual adoration to my Crucified Good, and I was saying to Him: “I enter into Your Will; or rather, give me Your hand and place me in the immensity of Your Will Yourself, that I may do nothing which is not the effect of Your Most Holy Will.” Now, while I was saying this, I thought to myself: “How is this? The Divine Will is everywhere, I am already in It, and yet I say: I enter into your Will?” But while I was thinking of this, my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter, yet, there is a great difference between one who prays and acts because My Will envelops her, being everywhere by Its own nature, and one who, of her own will, having the knowledge of what she does within herself, enters into the divine sphere of My Will to operate and pray.
“Do you know what happens? It happens as when the sun fills the earth with its light, though the light and the heat are not the same at all points: at some points there is shade, at other points there is direct light and the heat is more intense. Now, who enjoys more light, who feels more heat: one who is in the shade, or one who is at those points where the light is not covered by shade? However, one cannot say that where there is shade there is no light, although where there is no shade the light is more vivid, the heat is more intense; even more, the rays of the sun seem to invest and absorb the creature. And if the sun had reason, and one creature exposed herself of her own will to its burning rays, and in the name of all said to it: ‘Thank you, O sun, for your light and for all the goods you produce by filling the earth; for all, I want to give you the return of the good you do’ — what glory, honor and satisfaction would the sun not receive?
“Now, it is true that My Will is everywhere, but the shade of the human will does not allow the soul to feel the vividness of the light, the heat, and all the good It contains. On the other hand, by wanting to enter into My Will, the soul lays down her own and removes the shade of her volition, and My Will makes Its vivid light shine, It invests her, It transforms her into light itself. And the soul, plunged into My Eternal Volition, says to Me: ‘Thank You, O Holy Supreme Volition, for Your light and for all the goods You produce by filling Heaven and earth with Your Eternal Will; for all, I want to give You the return of the good You do.’ And I feel such honor, glory and satisfaction, that no other equals it. My daughter, how many evils the shade of one’s own will does: it cools down the soul, it produces sloth, sleep, sluggishness. The opposite for one who lives in My Will.”
Then, after this, I found myself outside of myself, and I saw as if contagious diseases were to come, and many people were carried to leper hospitals. A general fright was reigning, and many other maladies of new kinds. But I hope that Jesus may want to placate Himself by the merits of His most precious Blood.
From the Calendar--June 20, 1918 Volume 12
Continuing in my usual state, my sweet Jesus made Himself seen around me, all full of attentions. He seemed to be watching me in everything. As He was doing this, a rope came out from His Heart, coming toward my heart; and if I was attentive, the rope remained fixed in my heart, and Jesus moved this rope and amused Himself. Then, my beloved Jesus told me: "My daughter, I am all attention for souls. If they reciprocate Me, paying as much attention to Me, the ropes of My Love remain fixed in their heart, and I multiply My attentions and amuse Myself; otherwise, the ropes remain loose, and mM Love rejected and saddened."
Then He added: "In the one who does My Will and lives in It, my Love does not find obstruction. I love her and have so much predilection for her that I Myself take care of all that is needed for her: both help and direction, both unforeseen aids and unexpected graces. Even more, I am jealous that others may do something – I Myself want to do everything for her. I reach so much jealousy of love that, if I give to Priests the authority to consecrate Me in the Sacramental Hosts so that I may be given to souls, I reserve to Myself the privilege to consecrate these souls, as they keep repeating their acts in My Will, as they resign themselves, and as they make the human will go out, in order to let the Divine Will enter. What the Priest does over the Host, I do with them — and not only once: every time she repeats her acts in My Will, she calls Me as a powerful magnet, and I consecrate her like a privileged Host, repeating over her the words of the Consecration.
“I do this with justice, because the soul who does My Will sacrifices herself more than those souls who receive Communion, but do not do My Will. They empty themselves to take on Me; they give Me full dominion and, if needed, they are ready to suffer any pain in order to do My Will. So, I cannot wait — My Love cannot contain Itself from communicating Me to them until when it is convenient to the Priest to give them the Sacramental Host. Therefore, I do everything by Myself. Oh, how many times I communicate Myself before the Priest feels comfortable to communicate her himself! If this were not the case, My Love would remain as though hampered and bound in the Sacraments. No, no, I am free. I have the Sacraments inside my Heart — I am the Owner, and I can exercise them whenever I want."
And while He was saying this, He seemed to be wandering everywhere, to see if there were souls who did His Will, in order to consecrate them. How beautiful it was to see lovable Jesus going round as though in a hurry, doing the office of Priest, and to hear Him repeat the words of the Consecration over those souls who do His Will and live in It. Oh, blessed are those souls who, by doing His Most Holy Will, receive the Consecration of Jesus!

As I was in my usual state, I felt my adorable Jesus near me, saying: “My daughter, what a sorrowful stage the Church is about to enter. But all the glory in these times is of those athletic spirits who, heedless of shackles, chains and pains, do nothing but break the thorny path that divides the society from God.” Then He added: “One can see greed for human blood in man – he, from the earth, and I will concur from Heaven with earthquakes, fires, hurricanes, calamities, such as to make a good part of them die.”

My abandonment in the Fiat continues; and while my poor mind was following the Creation in order to keep company with the acts that the Divine Will does in It, my sweet Jesus told me: “My daughter, each created thing calls the creature to do the Divine Will. They are without voice and they speak, but speak according to the act that the Divine Volition carries out in them. In fact, each created thing carries out a distinct act of Divine Will, and with that act it calls the creature to do Its Divine Will. Each created thing has received from God, for this purpose, a special delight, in order to attract the creature in a mysterious way to do His Divine Will.
“This is the reason for the order, the harmony of all Creation around the creature; in such a way that the sun calls with its light, and unleashing its heat, it calls her to do the Will of her Creator. And My Divine Fiat, hidden under the veils of the light, calls with insistence, without ever withdrawing, to receive Its life, so as to be able to carry It out as It does in the sun. And almost to assail her so as to make itself listened to, it invests the creature from all sides—to the right, to the left, over her head; it extends even under her feet, to say to her with its mute language of light: ‘Look at me, listen to me—how beautiful I am, how much good I do to the earth, because a Divine Will reigns and dominates my light. And you—why don’t you listen to me with my touch of light, so as to receive the Life of the Divine Will, to let It reign in you?’
“The heavens speak to you with the meek twinkling of the stars; the wind with its empire, the sea with its murmuring and with its tumultuous waves; the air speaks to you in the breathing, in the heartbeat; the little flower with its fragrance. In sum, all created things compete among themselves in calling you to receive My Will in order to let It reign, so that Heaven and earth may be nothing other than an act of Divine Will. Oh! if creatures listened to the many voices of Creation that, though mute, are yet real and always present in their midst—they would surrender to letting It reign, as It reigns with Its full triumph in all things created by Us.”
Then, I continued my round in Creation, and as I arrived at Eden, I followed what God did in the creation of man. And my beloved Jesus told me: “My daughter, as you arrive at this point of the creation of man, We feel wounded, and We have, present, the moving scene of how he was created by Us. Our Love swells, overflows, runs to find man as he was created by Us. Our Love becomes delirious, and in Its delirium, It wants to embrace him, clasp him to Our Divine womb—beautiful and holy, just as he came out of Our creative hands. And not finding him, Our Love changes into a delirium of sorrowful love, and longs for he whom It so much loves. Now, you must know that Our Love in creating man was so great, that as soon as he was created, he was placed by Us within Our Divine enclosures, and We gave him, as little atom, the human will, immersed in the immensity of the Divine Will. Therefore, it was natural for him that, being a little atom, he would have to live of Divine Will.
“Our Divinity said to him: ‘We give you Our Divine Will at your disposal, so that the little atom of yours may feel the need to live of Its immensity, to grow with Its sanctity, to embellish itself with Its beauty, to make use of Its light. Seeing himself little, he will feel happy to live within the enclosures of Our Fiat so as to live of Our Divine Qualities.’ And We delighted in seeing this little atom of the human will live within Our interminable enclosures, under Our care, under Our gaze, growing beautiful and graceful, of a rare beauty, such as to enrapture Us and to let Us find Our delights in him.
“But brief was his happiness and Our joys for having created man: this atom of the human will did not want to live of Divine Will, but of itself; it can be said that it repressed Ours to live of its own. In fact, as much as he wanted to go out of Our Will, he could find not even a little space in which to go, because there is not one point in which It is not present. Therefore, as much as he did not want to live of Our own, he had no place to go; so, while he was inside Our Divine Fiat, yet he lived as if It were not there, and, voluntarily, he lived of his miseries and of the darkness that he himself formed for himself. And this is the reason for Our continuous longing, that he would no longer keep Our Will repressed, but rather, he would repress the atom of his will, to live happy and holy, and We may find in him Our delights.”
