Divine Will for every day of the year - March 15, 1912 Volume 11

Continuing in my usual state, I felt a great desire to do the Most Holy Will of Blessed Jesus; and He came and told me: “My daughter, My Will is the Sanctity of Sanctities. The soul who does My Will according to the perfection that I am teaching you — that is, on earth as It is in Heaven — however small, ignorant and ignored, leaves even other Saints behind in spite of their prodigies, the most clamorous conversions and the miracles. Really, in comparison, the souls who do My Will in the way It is in My third “FIAT” are queens, and it is as if all the others were at their service.

“It seems that the souls who live in My Will do nothing, while they actually do everything, because being in My Will these souls act Divinely, in a hidden and surprising way. They are light which illuminates, wind which purifies, fire which burns, miracles which cause miracles. Those who do miracles are channels; but in these souls resides the Power. Therefore, they are the foot of the missionary, the tongue of the preachers, the strength of the weak, the patience of the sick, the regime (of the superiors), the obedience of the subjects, the tolerance of the slandered, the firmness in the dangers, the heroism in the heroes, the courage in the martyrs, the sanctity in the saints, and so on with all the rest. Being in My Will, they concur with all the good that can be both in Heaven and on earth.

“This is why I can surely say that they are My true Hosts — but living Hosts, not dead ones. The accidents that form the host are not full of life, neither do they influence my Life; but the soul who lives in My Divine Will is full of life and, doing My Will, she influences and concurs with all that I do. This is why these consecrated Hosts of My Will are more dear to Me than the very sacramental Hosts, and if I have reason to exist in the sacramental Hosts, it is to form the sacramental Hosts of My Will. 

“My daughter, I take such delight in My Will that, in simply hearing talk about It, I feel overjoyed and I call the whole of Heaven to make feast. Imagine what will become of those souls who will do It: I find in them all the joys, so I give all the joys to them. Their life is the life of the Blessed. They care about, desire and yearn for two things only: My Will and Love. They need to do very little else, while in fact they do everything. The virtues themselves remain absorbed in My Will and in Love. Therefore, they have nothing to do with them, since My Will contains, possesses and absorbs all; but in a Divine manner — immense and endless. This is the life of the Blessed.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 14, 1914 Volume 11

Today I was fusing all of myself in Jesus, to the extent of feeling Jesus alive and real within me. As I was feeling Him, He said to me in such a tender and touching way that I felt my poor heart crack: “My daughter, it is too hard for Me not to content one who does My Will. As you see, I no longer have hands, feet, Heart, eyes, or mouth. I have nothing left of My Will, since you took everything — you took possession of everything. I have nothing left which is not yours. This is why deserved chastisements are not being poured upon the many and great evils which inundate the earth: because it is hard for Me not to content you. Further, how can I do that if I do not have hands? You don’t believe Me, do you? If hands were to be absolutely necessary to Me, I would be forced to steal them from you, or to convince you so that you yourself would give them to Me. How hard this is — how hard it is for Me to displease one who does my Will! I would displease Myself.”

I remained astonished at this speaking of Jesus. Not only this, but I could really see that I had the hands, the feet and the eyes of Jesus; so I said to Him: “Jesus, let me come.” And He: “Give Me a little more of life in you, and then you will come.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 13, 1899 Volume 2

This morning, beloved Jesus did not make Himself seen in the usual way, all affability and sweetness — but severe. I felt my mind in a sea of confusion, and my soul so afflicted and annihilated, especially because of the chastisements I saw in these past days. In seeing Him with that appearance I did not dare to tell Him anything; we looked at each other, but in silence. Oh God, what pain! Then, in one instant, I also saw the confessor, and Jesus, sending forth a ray of intellectual light, spoke these words: “Charity. Charity is nothing but an outpouring of the Divine Being, and this outpouring I have diffused over the whole Creation, in such a way that all Creation speaks of the love I have for man, and all Creation teaches him how He must love Me — from the largest being to the most tiny little flower in the field. 

“See”, it says to man, “with my sweet fragrance and by always facing the sky, I try to send an homage to my Creator. You too, let all your actions be fragrant, holy, pure; do not offend my Creator with the bad odor of your actions. O please, O man”, the little flower repeats to us, “don’t be so senseless as to keep your eyes fixed on the earth; but rather, raise them up to Heaven. See, up there is your destiny, your fatherland – up there is my Creator and yours who awaits you.”

The water that flows continuously before our eyes also says to us: “See, I have come out of darkness, and I must flow and run so much until I go and bury myself in the place from which I came. You too, O man, run — but run into the bosom of God, from which you came. O please! I beg you, do not run along the wrong paths, the paths which lead to the precipice; otherwise — woe to you!”

Even the wildest animals repeat to us: “See, O man, how wild you must be for all that is not God. See, when we see that someone is approaching us, with our roars we strike so much fear that no one dares to come close to us any more, to disturb our solitude. You too, when the stench of earthly things — that is, your violent passions – are about to make you muddy and fall into the abyss of sins, with the roars of your prayers and by withdrawing from the occasions in which you find yourself, you will be safe from any danger.” And so with all the other beings – it would take too long to tell them all. With one voice they resound among themselves, and repeat to us: “See, O man, our Creator made us for love of you, and we are all at your service. And you, don’t be so ungrateful – love, we beg you; love, we repeat to you; love our Creator.”

After this, my lovable Jesus told me: “This is all I want: love God and your neighbor for love of Me. See how much I have loved man – and he is so ungrateful. How could you not want me to chastise them?” At that very moment, I seemed to see a terrible hail, and an earthquake which is to cause considerable damage, to the point of destroying plants and men. Then, with all the bitterness of my soul, I said to Him: “My always lovable Jesus, why so indignant? If man is ungrateful, it is not so much because of malice, but because of weakness. Oh, if they knew You a little bit — oh, how humble and palpitating they would be! Therefore, placate Yourself. I commend to you at least Corato and those who belong to me.” As I was saying this, it seemed to me that something was to happen also in Corato, but it would be nothing compared to what would happen in other towns.

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 12, 1910 Volume 9

As I was in my usual state, blessed Jesus came just in passing and told me: “My daughter, My Will perfects love; It modifies it, It shrinks it, and It expands it into something holier and more perfect. Sometimes love would want to run away and devour everything; but My Will masters love and says: ‘Slow down, don’t run away, because by running away you can hurt yourself, and by wanting to devour everything you can be mistaken.’ Love is pure insofar as it is conformed to My Will; they walk together, and they kiss each other continuously with the kiss of peace. Other times, either because of an interior state or because in its escapes it has not succeeded as it wanted, love would want to constrain Me and almost sit down sluggishly; so My Will spurs it on and says to it: ‘Come on, true lovers are not lazy — they don’t remain idle.’ When it is enclosed in My Will — only then is love safe. So, love makes one appreciate and desire something, and it is taken by follies and by excesses; while My Will tempers and calms love itself, and nourishes the loving soul with a food more solid and Divine. Therefore, in love there can be many imperfections, even in holy things, while in My Will – never; everything is perfect. 

“My daughter, this happens especially in loving souls who have received the grace of My Visits, of My Kisses and Caresses: they remain prey to Love when I deprive them of Myself; Love takes possession of them and renders them panting, fidgety, delirious, mad, restless, impatient. So, if it wasn’t for My Will that nourishes them, calms them, strengthens them, Love would kill them. Though Love is nothing but the firstborn child of My Will, it needs always to be corrected by My Will; and I Love it as much as I love Myself.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 11, 1928 Volume 23

… After this, I was following my Divine Fiat, doing my round in It; and as I arrived at the home of Nazareth in which my lovable Jesus had conducted His Hidden Life, in order to follow His Acts, I was saying to Him:  “My Love, there is no Act You do in which my ‘I love You’ does not follow You, to ask You, by means of Your Acts, for the Kingdom of Your Will.  My ‘I love You’ follows You everywhere—in the steps You take, in the words You speak, in the wood You hammer; and while You hammer the wood, may You hammer the human will, that it may be undone, and Your Divine Will may rise again in the midst of creatures.  

“My ‘I love You’ flows in the water You drink, in the food You take, in the air You breathe, in the rivers of love that pass between You and Your Mama and Saint Joseph, in the prayers You do, in Your ardent heartbeat, in the sleep You take.  Oh! how I wish to be near You, to whisper to Your ear:  ‘I love You, I love You…. O please! let Your Kingdom come.’”

Now, while I would have wanted my “I love You” to form a circle around all the Acts of Jesus, He moved in my interior and told me:  “My daughter, all of My Hidden Life, and such a long one, was nothing other than the recall of the Kingdom of My Divine Will upon earth.  I wanted to redo within Myself all the acts that creatures were to do in It, to then hold them out to them; and I wanted to do this together with My Mama, I wanted Her always together with Me in My Hidden Life, in order to form this Kingdom.  Two people had destroyed this Kingdom of My Divine Fiat, Adam and Eve; and two more, Myself and the height of the Sovereign Queen, were to redo It.  

“So, first I took care of the Kingdom of My Divine Will, because the human will had been the first to offend Mine by withdrawing from It; all other offenses came in the second degree, as the consequence of the first act.  It is the human will that is the life or the death of the creature, her happiness or her tyranny and misfortune into which she hurls herself; her good angel that leads her to Heaven, or the one who, transforming into a demon, hurls her into hell.  All evil is in the will, as well as all good, because the will is like the fount of life placed in the creature, that can spring joys, happiness, sanctity, peace, virtue, or spurts from itself little fountains of troubles, of miseries, of sins, of wars, that destroy all goods.

“Therefore, first I took care of the Kingdom of My Will in this Hidden Life, for as long as thirty years; and then, with My short Public Life, just three years, I took care of Redemption.  And while in forming the Kingdom of My Divine Fiat, I had the Celestial Mama always near Me, in My Public Life I did without Her presence, at least corporally, because for the Kingdom of My Fiat I constituted Myself King, and the Virgin, Queen, in order to be, I first, and then She, the foundation of the Kingdom that had been destroyed by the human will.  

“See, then, how the Kingdom of My Divine Will, by necessity, by reason, and as a result, was formed with My coming upon earth in the first order; nor could I have formed the Redemption had I not satisfied My Celestial Father for the first offensive act that the creature had done against Him.  Therefore, the Kingdom of My Will is formed, there is nothing left but to make It known; and this is why I do nothing but follow with you, and hold out to you, My Acts that I did in order to form It, accompanying your acts so that the foundation of Mine may flow in them.  I am on guard so that your will may have no life, and so that Mine may be free.  In sum, I am acting as with a second mother of Mine, recalling all the acts done together with the Virgin, in order to deposit them in you.  Therefore, be attentive to follow My Will in everything.”

May everything be for the glory of God and for the fulfillment of His Most Holy Will.

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 10, 1909 Volume 9

Continuing in my usual state, I found myself outside of myself with baby Jesus in my arms, and I said to Him: “Tell me, my little pretty one, what does the Father do?” And He: “The Father forms one single thing with Me; therefore, whatever the Father does, I do.”

And I added: “And with the Saints – what do You do?” And He: “I give Myself continuously; so, I am their Life, Joy, Happiness, Immense Good, without end and without boundaries. They are filled with Me; they find everything in Me – I am everything for them, and they are all for Me.”

On hearing this, I wanted to get huffy, and I said to Him: “To the Saints You give Yourself continuously, but to me, then – so meagerly, so stingily, and at intervals, to the point of having me spend part of the day without coming. And sometimes You hold off so much that the fear comes to me that You may not even come until evening; so I live dying, but of the most cruel and ruthless death. Yet, You told me that You loved me very much.” And He: “My daughter, to you also I give Myself continuously – now personally, now by grace, now through light, and in many other ways. And then, who can deny that I love you very, very much?” …

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 9, 1919 Volume 12

As I was in my usual state, my always lovable Jesus drew me more and more into His Will. What an interminable abyss! Then He told me: “My daughter, take a look at how My Humanity swam in the Divine Volition, which you should imitate.” At that moment, a Sun seemed to appear before my mind — not so small as the one which shines on our horizon, but so great as to surpass the entire surface of the earth. Even more, one could not see where its boundaries reached; and the rays It spread, forming an enchanting harmony, went up and down, penetrating everywhere. In the center of this Sun I could see the Humanity of Our Lord, nourishing Itself from the Sun, which formed all His Life. He received everything from the Sun, and He gave everything back to It, which spread Itself like beneficial rain over the whole human family. What an enchanting sight! 

Then, my sweet Jesus added: “Have you seen how I want you? The Sun that you see is My Will, in which My Humanity was as though within Its own center. I received everything from My Will; no other food entered into Me. Not even one thought, one word or one breath entered into Me, which was nourished by a food extraneous to My Will. It was right that I gave everything back to It. So do I want you — in the Center of My Will, from which you will take the nourishment of everything. Beware of taking any other food; you would descend from your nobility, and degrade yourself, like those queens who lower themselves to taking vile and dirty foods, unworthy of them. And as you take, you must immediately return everything back to Me. Therefore, you will do nothing other than take and give to Me. In this way, you too will form an enchanting harmony between Me and you.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 7, 1922 Volume 14

I was thinking about what has been written, and I said to myself: “Is it really Jesus that speaks to me, or is it a trick of the enemy and of my fantasy?” And Jesus, on coming, told me: “My daughter, My Words are full of Truth and of Light, and they carry with them the virtue of transforming the soul into Truth itself, into Light itself, and into the very Good which they contain, in such a way that the soul does not only know the Truth, but she feels within her the substance of operating according to the Truth which she has known. Further, My Truths are full of Beauty and Attraction, in such a way that the soul, taken by their Beauty, lets herself be enraptured by them. 

“In Me everything is Order, Harmony and Beauty. See, I created the heavens; they alone could have been enough — but no, I wanted to adorn them with stars, almost studding them with Beauty, so that the human eye might enjoy more from the Works of its Creator. I created the earth, and I adorned it with many plants and flowers... I created nothing which did not have its own ornament. And if this is in the order of created things, much more so in My Truths, which reside within My Divinity. While it seems that they reach the soul, they are like solar rays, which hit and warm the earth without ever departing from the center of the Sun. And the soul remains so enamored with My Truths, that she finds it almost impossible not to put into practice the Truths she has known, even at the cost of her life.

“On the other hand, when it is the enemy or the speculation of fantasy that want to speak about truths, they bring neither light, nor substance, nor beauty, nor attraction. They are empty truths, without Life, and the soul does not feel the grace to sacrifice herself to put them into practice. Therefore, the Truths that your Jesus tells you are full of Life and of all that My Truths contain. Why do you doubt?”

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 6, 1903 Volume 4

After I had struggled very much, blessed Jesus made Himself seen within my interior, telling me: “Shall we go see whether creatures want Me?” And I: “Surely they must want You, because You are the most lovable Being. Who would have the daring of not wanting You?” And He: “Let us go, and then you will see what they do.” So we went, and as we arrived at a place in which there were many people, His Head came out from within my interior and He said those words which Pilate spoke when he showed Him to the people: “Ecce Homo” [“Here is the Man”]. I understood that the meaning of those words was to ask them whether they wanted the Lord to reign as their King, and to have dominion in their hearts, minds and works. And they answered: “Take Him away, we do not want Him; or rather, crucify Him, so that every memory of Him may be destroyed.” Oh, how many times these scenes are repeated!

So the Lord said to everyone: “Ecce Homo.” As He said it, a murmuring — a confusion arose. Some were saying: “I do not want Him as my King – I want riches”; another, “pleasure”; another, “honor”; some, “dignities”; and some, many other things. I listened to those voices with horror, and the Lord told me: “Have you seen how no one wants Me? Yet, this is nothing; let us turn to the religious class, and let us see whether they want Me.” So I found myself in the midst of Priests, Bishops, religious women and devout ones, and with sonorous voice, Jesus repeated: “Ecce Homo.” And they said: “We want Him, but we also want our comfort.” Others: “We want Him, but together with our own interest.” Others answered: “We want Him, but together with esteem and honor.” …What does a religious do with esteem? Others replied: “We want Him, but together with some satisfaction from creatures – how can one live alone and without anyone that satisfies us?” Some wanted satisfaction at least in the Sacrament of Confession, but almost no one wanted Him alone, nor was someone lacking who did not care about Jesus Christ at all. So, all afflicted, He told me: “My daughter, let us withdraw; have you seen how no one wants Me? Or at the most, they want Me together with something that pleases them. I am not content with this, because true reigning is when one reigns alone.” As He was saying this, I found myself inside myself.

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 5, 1903 Volume 4

As I was in my usual state, I found myself together with blessed Jesus, who was carrying a bundle of crosses and of thorns in His arms, all tired and weary. On seeing Him in that state, I said: “Lord, why weary Yourself so much with this bundle in your arms?” And He: “My daughter, these are the crosses of disillusion, which I keep always ready to disillusion the creatures.” As He was saying this, we found ourselves in the midst of people, and as soon as blessed Jesus would see that someone would become attached to creatures, He would take the cross of persecution from that bundle and would give it to him; and that person, seeing himself persecuted, unpopular, would be disillusioned and would comprehend that those were the creatures, and that God alone deserves to be loved. If someone would become attached to riches, He would take from that bundle the cross of poverty and would give it to him; and that person, seeing that riches had vanished away from him and he was now poor, would comprehend that everything down here is smoke, and that true riches are eternal, and so he would attach his heart to everything that is eternal. If someone else would become bound to his self-esteem, to knowledge, blessed Jesus, with all sweetness, would take the cross of slanders and of confusions and would give it to him; and that person, confused and slandered, would remove as though a mask from himself and comprehend his own nothingness, his being, and would order his whole interior in the order of God, and no longer of himself. And so on with all the other crosses.

After this, my adorable Jesus told me: “Have you seen the reason why I have this bundle of crosses in My Arms? It is My Love for creatures that forces Me to keep it, remaining in continuous attitude for them. In fact, the Cross is the Primary Disillusion and the first thing that judges the works of creatures, in such a way that if the creature surrenders, the Cross will make him avoid the judgment of God, as I am satisfied when one submits to the judgment of the Cross during his life. If then he does not surrender, he will find himself in the sphere of the second judgment at his death, and will be judged with much more severe rigor by God; more so, since he has shunned the judgment of the Cross, which is a judgment all of Love.” After this He disappeared, and I also comprehended that it is true that Jesus loves the Cross, but many times it is man himself that incites and provokes Jesus to give him the Cross. In fact, if man were ordered in the order of God, of himself and of creatures, not seeing any disorder in him, the Lord would remain at peace and would give him peace.

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 4, 1934 Volume 33

My poor intelligence is always going around in the Divine Fiat in order to meet with His Acts, uniting myself with them, to court them, love them, and be able to tell Him:  “I have the Love of Your Acts in my power, therefore I Love You as You Love me, and what You do, I do.”  

O! how beautiful it is to be able to say:  “I have disappeared in the Divine Will, and therefore Its Strength, Its Love, Its Sanctity, Its Operation, is mine; we take one single Step, we have on single Motion, and one single Love.”  

And the Divine Will, all in feast, it seems that It says:  “How content I am, I am not alone anymore, I feel in Myself one Heartbeat, one Motion, one Will that runs in Me and, fused together, never leaves Me alone, and she does what I do.”

So, while my mind was lost in the Divine Volition, I thought to myself:  “But what good are these acts of mine done in the Divine Will?  While I do not do anything, It does everything Itself, and since I am together, within It, It tells me I do what It does, and It says it with Reason, since being in It and not doing what It does is impossible because Its Power is so much, that it invests my nothingness and makes it do what the All does.  Nor can it do, nor does it know how to do, differently.”

So my sweet Jesus, surprising me with His brief little visit, told me:  “My little daughter of My Will, how Beautiful It is; the creature cannot receive greater honor than that of becoming admitted within It.  The instants, the littlest Acts done in It, embrace centuries; and since they are Divine, they are invested with such Power that what one wants to do with them—everything he can do and everything he can obtain.  The Divine Being remains bound in these Acts, because they are His Acts, and He must give them the Value that they merit.  Besides this, you must know that the Acts done in My Will form the ways that must serve souls in order to let them enter into It, and they are so very necessary that if heroic souls do not first come forth to Live in It in order to form the principal ways of Its Kingdom, the generations, not finding the ways, will not know what to do in order to enter into My Will.  …”

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 3, 1919 Volume 12

Continuing in my usual state, I was all immersed in the Divine Volition; and my always lovable Jesus came and pressed me to His Heart, telling me: “You are My firstborn Daughter of My Will. How dear and precious you are in My Eyes! I will keep you so guarded that, if in creating man I prepared a terrestrial Eden, for you I have prepared a Divine Eden. If in the terrestrial Eden the union between the first ancestors was human, and I gave them the most beautiful delights of the earth for their enjoyment, while they enjoyed Me at intervals — in the Divine Eden the union is Divine. I will make you enjoy the most beautiful Celestial Delights, and you will enjoy Me as much as you want; even more, I will be your Life, and we will share the Contentments, the Joys, the Sweetnesses and, if needed, also the Pains. The enemy had access to the terrestrial Eden, and the first sin was committed; in the Divine Eden entrance is precluded to the devil, to passions and to weaknesses. Even more, he does not want to enter, knowing that My Will would burn him more than the very fire of hell; and upon merely feeling the sensation of My Will, the enemy flees. In My Will you will give a start to the first acts in the Divine Manner — acts which are Immense, Eternal, Infinite, and embrace everything and everyone.”

And I, interrupting Jesus, said: “Jesus, my Love, the more You speak about this Divine Will, the more I become confused and fearful, and I feel such annihilation as to feel destroyed, and therefore unable to correspond to your designs.” And He, all goodness, added: “It is My Will that destroys the human in you; and instead of fearing, you should fling yourself into the Immensity of My Will. My designs upon you are high, noble and divine. The very Work of Creation – oh! how It remains behind this Work of calling you to live in the Divine Will, to live not a human, but a Divine Life. This is a greater outpouring of My Love — it is My Love constrained by creatures; and unable to contain It any longer, I pour it out in torrents upon one who loves Me. And in order to be sure that My Love is not rejected and beaten up, I call you in My Will, so that neither you nor what is Mine may remain without their full effect, and fully defended. My daughter, do not sadden the work of your Jesus with your fears, and continue the flight there where I call you.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 2, 1921 Volume 12

As I was in my usual state, my always lovable Jesus came and told me: “My daughter, the Third FIAT — My ‘Fiat Voluntas Tua, on earth as it is in Heaven’ — will be like the rainbow which appeared in the sky after the deluge, which, as rainbow of peace, assured man that the deluge had ceased. So will the Third FIAT be. As It comes to be known, loving and disinterested souls will come to live in My FIAT. They will be like rainbows — rainbows of peace — which will reconcile Heaven and earth, and dispel the deluge of so many sins which inundate the earth. These rainbows of peace will have the Third FIAT as their own life; therefore My ‘Fiat Voluntas Tua’ will have Its completion in them. And just as the Second FIAT called Me upon earth to live among men, the Third FIAT will call My Will into souls, and It will Reign in them ‘on earth, as in Heaven’.”

Then, since I was sad because of His absence, He added: “My daughter, be cheered — come into My Will. I chose you among thousands and thousands, so that My Will may have full completion in you, and so that you may be like a rainbow of peace which, with its seven colors, attracts others to live in My Will. Therefore, let us leave the earth aside. Up until now I have kept you with Me in order to appease My Justice and prevent greater chastisements from being poured upon the earth. Now, let us allow the current of human evil to run; I want you with Me, in My Volition, to be occupied with preparing the Era of My Will. 

“As you move forward on the path of My Volition, the rainbow of peace will form, which will form the link of connection between the Divine Will and human will. From it, My Will will have life on earth, and this will begin the fulfillment of My Prayer, and the prayer of the whole Church: ‘Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done, on earth as It is in Heaven’.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - March 1, 1936 Volume 34

[Jesus speaking]

“…The Three Divine Persons were inseparable, nor subject to separating from Ourselves, therefore I can say:  ‘I remained in Heaven and I descended onto earth; and the Father and the Holy Spirit descended with Me to earth, and They remained in Heaven.’  So in this Act so Great Our Divine Being overflowed so much in Love, that the Heavens were amazed and the Angels surprised and mute; everyone was wrapped in Our Flames of Love.  The Incarnation was nothing other than an Act of Our Divine Will; what does It not know how to do and can do?  Everything.  With Its Power and with Its Infinite Love, It arrives at even Operating the Prodigy never heard of, nor done, of making Us remain in Heaven and descend into the prison of the Maternal Womb.  So Our Will wanted, so it was done.

“Now, My daughter, every time the soul wants to do My Will, My Celestial Father first looks within Himself.  He calls as in council the Sacrosanct Trinity, in order to fill that act with Our Will and with all possible and imaginable Goods.  Then He pours it forth from Himself, and He invests the creature with His Operating, Communicating, Transforming Will, and as in the Incarnation, the Three Divine Persons remain in Heaven and They descend into the Womb of the Immaculate Virgin, so My Will with Its Power transports with Itself in Its Operative Act the Divine Trinity into the creature, while It leaves Him in Heaven, and It forms there in the human will Its Divine Act.  

“Now, who can tell you the Marvels that become enclosed in this Act of Our Will?  Our Love rises and diffuses so much, as to not be able to find a place for where to put Itself, and when It has filled everything It withdraws into Our Source.  Our Sanctity feels Honored with the Divine Act of Our own Will Operating in the creature, and It diffuses with surprising Grace in order to communicate Its Sanctity to all creatures.  They are Indescribable Prodigies that It completes when the creature calls It to Operate in her.  Therefore, make everything disappear in My Will, and We will give everything into your power, and you will be able to give Us everything, even Ourselves.” …

Divine Will for every day of the year - February 28, 1899 Volume 2

I confess the truth, I feel great repugnance; the effort I have to make in order to conquer myself is so great that the Lord alone can know the torture of my soul. But, oh holy obedience, what a powerful bond you are! You alone could win over me, and surpassing all my repugnance, almost impassable mountains, you bind me to the Will of God and of the confessor. But, please, O Holy Spouse, as great as my sacrifice is, so much help do I need; I want nothing but that You hold me in your arms and sustain me. In this way, assisted by You, I will be able to say only the truth, only for your glory, and to my confusion.

This morning, since the confessor celebrated Mass, I also received Communion. My mind was in a sea of confusion because of this obedience that the confessor gave me, to write everything that passes in my interior. As I received Jesus, I began to tell Him of my pains, especially my insufficiency, and many other things. But Jesus did not seem to care about this thing of mine, and did not answer to anything. A light came to my mind, and I said: “Who knows whether I myself am the cause for which Jesus is not showing Himself as usual.” So, with all my heart, I said to Him: “O please! My Good and my All, don’t show Yourself so indifferent with me – You make my heart split with pain. If it is because of the writing – let it be, let it be, even if it cost me the sacrifice of my life, I promise I will do it!” Then Jesus changed appearance and, all benign, He told me: “What do you fear? Have I not assisted you the other times? My Light will surround you everywhere, and so you will be able to manifest it.”

Purity of intention.

While He was saying this, I don’t know how, I saw the confessor near Jesus; and the Lord told him: “See, everything you do passes into Heaven. Therefore, see with what purity you must operate, thinking that all of your steps, words and works come before My Presence, and if they are pure – that is, if they are done for Me – I take greatest delight in them and I feel them around Me like many messengers that remind Me continuously of you. But if they are done for low and earthly purposes, I feel bothered by them.” And as He was saying this, He seemed to grab His Hands, and raising them up to Heaven, He said to him: “Your eyes always on high; you are of Heaven – work for Heaven!”

While I was seeing the confessor, and Jesus saying this to him, in my mind it seemed to me that if one operated in that way, it would happen as to a person who has to leave one house to move to another. What does he do? First he sends all of his things and everything he possesses, and then he goes himself. In the same way, we first send our works to take a place for us in Heaven, and then, when our time comes, we go ourselves. Oh, what a beautiful cortege they will make for us! …

Divine Will for every day of the year - February 27, 1900 Volume 3

Having abandoned all of myself in the lovable Will of Our Lord, I saw myself surrounded completely by my sweet Jesus, inside and out.  By having abandoned myself in Him, I saw myself as if my being had become transparent, and wherever I turned, I could see my highest Good.  But that which amazed me was that while I saw myself surrounded by Jesus inside and out, so was I, my poor being, my will, surrounding Jesus as though within a circle, in such a way that He would not be able to find an opening to go out, because my will, united to His, kept Him chained, without any possibility that He might escape me.  Oh admirable secret of the Will of my Lord – indescribable is Your happiness!  

Now, while I was in this state, blessed Jesus told me;  “My daughter, in the soul who is completely transformed in my Volition I find sweet rest.  Her soul becomes for Me like those soft objects which cause no bother to someone who wants to rest; on the contrary, be they even tired and suffering people, the softness and the pleasure they receive in resting over those objects is such that, when they wake up, they find themselves strong and healthy.  Such is for Me the soul who is conformed to My Will; and I, as recompense, let Myself be bound by her will and I make the Divine Sun shine in her as in the full midday.”  Having said this, He disappeared.

Then, later, after I received Communion He came back and transported me outside of myself.  I could see many people, and Jesus told me:  “Tell them, tell them that great is the evil they do by murmuring about one another.  They draw My Indignation, and with justice, because I see that while they are subject to the same miseries and weaknesses, they do nothing but raise tribunals against one another.  If they do this among themselves, what should I, who am Pure and Holy, do with them?  According to the charity which they exercise toward one another, so do I feel drawn to use Mercy with them.”  Jesus was saying this to me, and I repeated it to those people; and then we withdrew.

Divine Will for every day of the year - February 26, 1900 Volume 3

After going through several days of privation – at most, He would come sometimes like a shadow, and would run away – I felt such pain that I consumed myself with tears.  Having compassion for my sorrow, blessed Jesus came, and He looked and looked at me again; then He said to me:  “My daughter, do not fear for I do not leave you.  However, when you are without My Presence I do not want you to lose heart, but rather, from today on, when you are deprived of Me, I want you to take My Will and to delight in It, loving Me and glorifying Me in My Will, and holding My Will as if It were My very Person.  By doing so, you will keep Me in your very hands.  What forms the Beatitude of Paradise?  Certainly My Divinity.  Now, what would form the beatitude of My dear ones on earth?  With certainty, My Will.  My Will can never escape you; you will always have It in your possession, and if you remain in the Circle of My Will, there you will experience the joys most ineffable and the pleasures most pure.  By never going out of the circle of My Will, the soul becomes noble, divinized, and all of her operations reverberate in the center of the Divine Sun, just as the sun’s rays reverberate on the surface of the earth – not one of them goes out of their center, which is God.  The soul who does My Will is alone the noble queen who nourishes herself from My Breath, because she takes her food and her drinks from no place but My Will, and by nourishing herself from My Will all Holy, a most pure blood will flow in her veins, and her breath will spread a fragrant perfume, which will cheer the whole of Me, because it is produced by My very Breath.  Therefore, I want nothing else from you but that you form your beatitude in the Circle of My Will, without ever going out of It, not even for a brief instant.”

While He was saying this, I felt an alarm and a fear in my interior, that the speaking of Jesus might indicate that He was not going to come, and that I was to find peace in His Will.  Oh God, what a mortal pain!  What grips in my heart!  But Jesus, always benign, added:  “How can I leave you since you are victim?  When you cease to be victim, only then will I not come; but as long as you are victim I will always feel drawn to come.”  

So it seems I have remained at peace, but I feel as though surrounded by the adorable Will of God, in such a way that I find no opening through which to go out.  I hope He will always keep me in this circle that connects me completely in God.

Divine Will for every day of the year - February 25, 1928 Volume 23

… But while my poor mind wandered in the Fiat, my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:  “My daughter, My Will is present in the midst of creatures as center of life.  Similarly, the human heart can be called king of one’s nature; in fact, if the heart palpitates, the mind thinks, the mouth speaks, the hands operate, the feet walk; if the heart does not palpitate, all of a sudden everything ends, because the king of the poor nature is missing, and therefore the one who rules and gives life to the thought, to the word, and to everything that the creature can do, is missing.  Similarly, the thought is king of the soul, the dwelling, the throne in which the soul carries out her activity, her life, her regime.  

“Now, if the human nature wanted to suffocate the beating of the heart, to do without its king in speaking, thinking and the like, what would happen?  It itself would give death to all of its acts; so, it would be the suicide of itself.  And if the soul wanted to suffocate the thought, she would not find the way in order to carry out her activity, and therefore it would be like a king without kingdom and without people.

“Now, what the heart is for the human life, and the thought for the soul, My Divine Will is in each creature.  It is like Center of Life, and from Its incessant and Eternal Heartbeat, It palpitates and the creature thinks, palpitates and speaks, walks and operates.  But creatures not only do not think about It, but suffocate It; they suffocate Its Light, Its Sanctity, Its Peace, the upright Operating, the just and holy Speaking; and some of them suffocate It so much as to render themselves the suicides of their souls.  

“And My Will, in the low world, is like a king without kingdom and without people; and creatures live as if they had no King, no Divine Life, no Regime, because the king of their heartbeat, for their nature, and the king of their thought, for their souls, is missing. And since, because of Its Immensity, It envelops everything and everyone, It is forced to live as though suffocated within Itself, because there is no one who receives Its Life, Its Attitude, Its Regime.  

“But It wants to form Its Kingdom on earth, It wants to have Its chosen and faithful people; and therefore, even though It is present in the midst of creatures and lives unknown and suffocated, It does not stop, It does not depart for Its Celestial Regions, but persists in remaining in their midst to make Itself known.  It would want to make everyone know the good It wants to do, Its Celestial Laws, Its Insuperable Love, Its Heartbeat that palpitates Light, Sanctity, Love, Gifts, Peace, Happiness; and such does It want the children of Its Kingdom.  

“And this is the reason for Its Life in you, for Its Knowledges—to make known what Divine Will means.  And I enjoy and remain hidden in My very Will, to give It all the field and the carrying out of Its Life in you.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - February 24, 1912 Volume 11

After I saw several souls around Jesus, especially one who was more sensitive, Jesus told me: “My daughter, if the souls with sensitive temperament start doing good, they make more progress than the others, because their sensitivity leads them to great and arduous enterprises.” I prayed that He would take those remains of human sensitivity away from that soul, and that He would squeeze her more to Himself and tell her that He loved her, for He would conquer her completely, as soon as she heard that He loved her... “You will see that You will succeed. Did You not conquer me in this way, telling me that You love me very, very much?” And Jesus: “Yes, yes, I will do it, but I want her cooperation — that she will escape as much as she can from the people who excite her sensitivity.” 

So I added: “My Love, tell me, what is Your temperament?” And Jesus: “One who lives in My Will loses her temperament and acquires Mine. So, the soul who lives in My Will finds in herself a pleasant, attractive, penetrating, dignified temperament, and altogether simple — a child-like simplicity; in sum, she looks like Me in everything. Even more, she keeps her temperament within her power as she wants and as it’s needed. Since she lives in My Will, she takes part in My Power, so she keeps at her disposal all things, and herself. According to the circumstances and to the people she deals with, she takes My Temperament and applies it.”

“Tell me, will you give me a first place in Your Will?” Jesus smiled: “Yes, yes, I promise you. I will never let you out of My Will, and you will take and do whatever you want.”

“Jesus, I want to be poor poor, little little. I don’t want anything even of your things; it is better if You keep them. I want only You, and You will give me things as I need them; isn’t it true, O Jesus?”

And Jesus: “Brava, brava, my daughter! Finally I have found someone who does not want anything. Everyone wants something from Me, but not the all, that is Myself only; while by wanting nothing, you want everything, and here is the fineness and the astuteness of true love.” I smiled and He disappeared.

Divine Will for every day of the year - February 23, 1927 Volume 21

…Then, after this, having received Holy Communion, I was saying to my beloved Jesus:  “My Love and my Life, Your Will has the virtue of multiplying Your Life for as many beings as exist and will exist on earth.  And I, in Your Will, want to form as many Jesuses in order to give the whole of You to each soul of Purgatory, to each Blessed of Heaven, and to each being living on earth.”  

Now, while I was saying this, my celestial Jesus told me:  “My daughter, in one who lives in My Volition, My Will does precisely this:  It multiplies the acts of the soul by Its own Virtue, for as many as are the created beings.  The soul receives the Divine Attitude, and her act becomes act of all.  The Divine Operating is precisely this:  one act that It does multiplies itself into many, such that all can make that act their own, as if it had been done for each being—while the act was one.  

“So, the soul in whom My Will reigns places herself in the condition of God Himself—both of glory and of sorrow, depending on whether creatures receive it or reject it.  The glory because her act can bring the Good and the Life of Jesus to all, is great, exuberant, infinite.  The sorrow because not all creatures take that good, and because My very Life remains suspended, without bringing the benefit of My Divine Life, is sorrow that surpasses all sorrows.”
