Divine Will for every day of the year - July 8, 1929 Volume 26

My littleness becomes lost and remains suffocated in the sea of sorrow of the privation of my beloved Jesus.  Feeling in suffering, more than ever I was yearning for my nature to become undone, so as to get out of my prison and take flight toward my Celestial Fatherland.  I would have wanted to go around everywhere in His Most Holy Will, and move Heaven and earth, so that, together with me, all might have a cry, a tear, a sigh, for this poor exiled one, so that all might ask for the end of my exile.  

But while I was pouring myself out in my bitternesses, my lovable Jesus came out from within my interior, and giving me a kiss and clasping me in His arms, He told me:  “My daughter, calm yourself, I am here within you; but while I am with you, I leave the work field free for My Divine Will.  And since It has Its Prime Act in you, it happens that you perceive what It does within you, Its Crafting, while you do not feel that I, who am inside of It, am already with It in Its Work.  In fact, I am inseparable from My Divine Will, and whatever It does, I do.  

“Now, you must know that My Divine Will wants to make Its work, Its field of action and Absolute Dominion, completely Its own, not only in your soul, but also in the earth of your body.  Over your sufferings It spreads Its Kiss of Light and of Heat; with Its Light It produces the seed; with Its Heat It fecundates it and forms the germ; and nourishing this germ with continuous Light and Heat, It makes flowers of light bloom with such variety of colors, always animated by the light, because It can do nothing, whether big or little, in which It does not make Its light flow.  These flowers are not like those of the earth that have no light and are subject to withering; they have perennial life, because they are nourished by the Light of My Fiat, and the variety of their beauty is such and so great, that it will form the most beautiful ornament to the earth of your humanity.” …

I was following my sweet Jesus in His Public Life, and while thinking about the so many human diseases that Jesus healed, I thought to myself:  “And why did the human nature transform itself so much, that some became mute, some deaf, some blind, some covered with wounds, and so many other evils.  If it was the human will that did evil, why did the body also suffer so much?”  

And my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:  “My daughter, you must know that the body did nothing evil, but all the evil was done by the human will.  However, before sinning, Adam possessed the complete life of My Divine Will in his soul; one can say that it was filled to the brim, to the extent of overflowing outside.  So, by virtue of My Will, the human will transfused light outside, and emitted the fragrances of its Creator—fragrances of beauty, of sanctity and of full health; fragrances of purity, of strength, that were such as to come out from within his will like many luminous clouds.  And the body was so embellished by these exhalations, that it was a delight to see him beautiful, vigorous, luminous, so very healthy, with an enrapturing grace.

“Now, as Adam sinned, his human will remained alone, and he no longer had the One who would diffuse in his will the light, the varieties of so many fragrances that, being transfused outside, preserved the soul and the body, as it had been created by God.  Instead, thick clouds, putrid air, perfumes of weakness and of miseries began to emanate from within the human will, in such a way that the body also lost its freshness, its beauty.  It became debilitated and remained subject to all evils, sharing in the evils of the human will, just as it had shared in the good.  So, if the human will is healed by giving it again the life of My Divine Will, as though by magic, all the evils of the human nature will have life no more.  …”

… And I was praying Jesus to teach me how to find It in all things, so that Its perennial Life would never be lacking in me.

And my highest Good, Jesus, with all goodness, told me: “My daughter, one who does My Will and lives in It forms in her soul the Book of the Divine Fiat. But this Book must be full, not empty or with only a few pages written; if it is not full, she will soon finish reading it, and having nothing to read, she will occupy herself with something else, and therefore the Life of My Divine Will will be interrupted and as though broken in the creature. On the other hand, if it is full, she will have always something to read; and if it seems that it ends, I will add other pages more sublime, so that she may never lack the life, the knowledge ever new, and the substantial nourishment of My Divine Volition.

“So, the interior must be like many pages in order to form this Book: page the intelligence, page the will and the memory, page the desire, the affection, the heartbeat, page the word, that must be able to repeat what it read, otherwise it will remain like a book that will do good to no one, while for one who forms a book the first purpose is to propagate it. So, the whole interior must be written with pages of My Divine Will, and this Book must be so full, that she must be unable to find anything else to read but My Will alone. Now, when the soul has her interior book full, she will know very well the external Book of the Divine Will.

All of Creation is nothing other than a book of It; each created thing is a page that forms an immense book, and of many volumes. So, having formed her interior book and read it thoroughly, she will be able to read very well the external Book of all Creation, and in all things she will find My Divine Will in act of giving her Its Life, Its lessons, most high and sublime, and Its delicious and holy food. …”

“… 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.”    

Divine Will for every day of the year - July 4, 1912 Volume 11

This morning, after Communion, I was saying to my always adorable Jesus: “To what a state I reduced myself! It seems that everything runs away from me: suffering, virtues - everything!”

And Jesus: “My daughter, what’s this? Do you want to waste time? Do you want to get out of your nothingness? Stay in your place — in your nothingness — so that the All may keep Its place in you. But know that you must die completely in My Will: to the suffering, to the virtues — to everything. My Will must be the tomb of the soul. Just as nature is consumed in the tomb to the extent of disappearing completely, and by that consummation it will rise again to a new and more beautiful Life, in the same way the soul, buried in My Will as if inside a tomb, will die to the suffering, to her virtues, to her spiritual goods, and will rise again in everything to Divine Life.

"Ah, my daughter, it seems that you want to imitate the mundane, who tend to what is temporal, and ends, while they don’t consider what is eternal. My beloved, why don’t you want to learn to live only in My Volition? Why don’t you want to live the life of Heaven while still being on earth? My Will is Love, the One that never dies; therefore My Will must be your sepulcher, and Love is the lid which has to lock you and seal you in, giving you no more hope of getting out.

“Then, every thought that regards oneself, even about virtues, is always gain for oneself and runs away from the Divine Life; while if the soul thinks only about Me and what regards Me, she takes the Divine Life in herself and, taking the Divine Life, she escapes the human life, taking all possible goods. Have we understood each other?”

Divine Will for every day of the year - July 3, 1903 Volume 5

This morning, as I was very afflicted because of the loss of my adorable Jesus, all of a sudden He made Himself seen in my interior, filling my person completely – that is, my head, my arms, and all the rest. As I was seeing this, almost wanting to explain to me the meaning of the way He was making Himself seen, He told me: “My daughter, why do you afflict yourself if I am the Master of all of you? When a soul comes to rendering Me the Master of her mind, of her arms, of her heart and of her feet, sin cannot reign; and if something involuntary enters into her, since I am the Master and the soul is under the influence of My Lordship, she is in continuous attitude of purgation, and that something immediately goes out of her. Furthermore, since I Am Holy, it is difficult for her to retain within herself anything which is not holy. Even more, since she has given all of herself to Me in life, it is justice that I give all of Myself to her at her death, admitting her to the Beatific Vision without delay. So, if one gives herself completely to Me, the flames of Purgatory have nothing to do with her.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - July 2, 1911 Volume 10

Continuing in my usual state, blessed Jesus came for just a little, and told me: “My daughter, wherever Love is, there is Life – and not human life, but Divine Life. Therefore, all the works, also good, which are not done out of Love, are like a painted fire, which gives no heat, or like painted water, which quenches no one’s thirst and which does not purify. Oh! how many painted, or dead works are done also by persons consecrated to Me. In fact, Love alone is that which contains Life; no other thing contains as much power to give Life to all; or rather, without Love, everything is dead.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - July 1, 1923 Volume 15

I was fusing myself in the Holy Divine Will in order to go around through each creature’s intelligence, and give to my Jesus the return of love of each thought of creature.  But while I was doing this, a thought said to me:  “What is the good of praying in this way?  On the contrary, it seems to me that this is nonsense, rather than prayer.”  And my always lovable Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:  “My daughter, do you want to know what the good and the effect of it is?  When the creature comes to cast the little pebble of her will into the immense sea of My Divinity, as she casts it, if her will wants to love, the Infinite Sea of the waters of My Love ripple, are agitated, and I feel the waves of My Love giving off their Celestial Fragrance, and I feel the pleasure, the joys of My Love being agitated by the little pebble of the will of the creature.  If she adores My Sanctity, the little pebble of the human will agitates the sea of My Sanctity, and I feel cheered by the most pure auras of My Sanctity.  In sum, whatever the human will wants to do in Mine, it flings itself like a little pebble into each sea of My Attributes, and as it agitates them and ripples them, I feel I am given My own things, and the honors, the glory, the love which the creature can give Me in a Divine manner.  …”

Divine Will for every day of the year - June 30, 1938 Volume 36

… After this, He added: “My daughter, everybody Lives in My Will.  If they did not, they just wouldn’t find a space in which to live.  But, who feels Our Divine Life?  Who feels surrounded by Our Sanctity?  Who feels the Joy of being touched by Our Creative Hands to be embellished from Our very Beauty?  Who feels drowned inside Our Love? the one who wants to Live in Our Will.  Not the one who is there by necessity of Creation, merely because of Our Immensity that involves everything and everyone.  These creatures are there without knowing Us, like real usurpers of Our Goods; like disloyal, ungrateful, degenerate children of their Father.  Because they do not know Us, they do not love Us.  They cannot find in themselves a place for Our Sanctity—Our Love.  Their souls are incapable of receiving Our Ever-Increasing Beauty.  They give Us nothing, not even Our Rights as Creator, and while they live together in Our Divine Sea, they are as if far away from Us.  By not knowing Us, they build the bars, they shut the doors:  they have broken any communication between them and Us.  

“It is Knowledge that is the first joining link between them and Us.  It is wanting to Live in Our Will that takes away the bars and opens the doors, to let them come into Our Arms and delight with Us.  It is Loving Us that makes Us pour rivers of Our Love and Graces, to the point of covering them with Our Divine Qualities.  Without the Knowledge, We cannot give anything, neither can they receive.  One who Lives in Our Will, instead knows Us.  As she enters It, she gives her kiss to her Daddy, she hugs Us and surrounds Us with her little love so We give her Our Seas of Love, and she exchanges her kisses with all Heaven.  We can say that the celebrations are opened between us—between Heaven and earth.  We Ourselves call her Blessed and We tell her:  you are the most Happy and fortunate creature, because you Live in Our Love, covered by Our Arms and under the rain of Our Graces.”

[Jesus speaking]

“…Even more, I want to tell you something which is very consoling for you, and of great glory for Me. It will happen with you, at your death in time, just as it happened with Me, at My Death. During My Life, I worked, I prayed, I preached, I instituted the Sacraments, I suffered unheard-of pains, and even death itself; but I can say that My Humanity saw almost nothing, compared to the great good It had done, nor did the very Sacraments have life as long as I remained on earth. As soon as I died, My Death sealed all My Works, My Words, My Pains, the Sacraments; and the fruit of My Death confirmed all that I did, and placed My Works, My Pains, My Words, the Sacraments which I instituted, as well as the continuation of their life until the consummation of the centuries, in the act of rising again to life. So, My Death put all My Works in motion, and it made them rise again to Perennial Life. All this was right, since My Humanity contained the Eternal Word and a Will which has no beginning and no end, and which is not subject to perish. Of everything It did, nothing was to perish — not even one word; rather, everything was to have continuation until the end of the centuries, in order to pass into Heaven to beatify all the Blessed, eternally. 

“The same will happen with you. My Will which lives in you, speaks to you, makes you work and suffer in It, will let nothing perish – not even one word of the so many Truths which I have manifested to you about My Will; rather, It will put everything in motion, It will make everything rise again. Your death will be the confirmation of all that I have said to you. And since the living in My Will is such that everything the soul does, suffers, prays and says, contain the Act of the Divine Will, all this will not be subject to perish, but will remain in the world, like many Lives – and all of them in the act of giving Life to the creatures. Therefore, your death will tear the veils which cover all the Truths which I spoke to you; and they will rise again like many Suns, such as to cast away all the doubts and difficulties with which they seemed to be covered during your life. Therefore, as long as you live in this low world, you will see little or nothing in others, of all the Great Good which My Will wants to do through you. But after your death, everything will have its full effect.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - June 28, 1921 Volume 13

I was pouring all of myself into the Divine Will, and my sweet Jesus told me: “My daughter, the souls who live in My Will are the reflection of everyone and of everything. Since they are reflected in everything, as a consequence they receive the reflection of all. And since My Will is life of everything, in My Will they run to give life to everything. So, even inanimate things and plants receive their reflections, while they receive the reflection of all Creation; they harmonize with all things created by Me; in My Will they give to all; they are friends and sisters with all, and receive love and glory from all. My Will renders them inseparable from Me and therefore whatever I do, they do as well. My Will does not know how to do things dissimilar from Me. The Kingdom of My Will means ‘to reign’, therefore all of them are queens; but true reigning is not to be excluded from anything created by Me.”

… Then, my sweet Jesus added:  “My daughter, how great is the Sea of My Will.  It has no beginning and no end, therefore the littleness of the creature can neither cross it, nor embrace it all.  However, one who lives in It finds herself on the way in the center of the Sea, as it will never be given to her to go out from within its center, because she will never find either a shore or a boundary of It.  On the contrary, in the front and in the back, on the right and on the left, she will find nothing but Sea of Divine Will, and for each act that she emits in It, she is given a Divine Right back.  In fact, since her act has been done within and together with My Divine Volition, with Divine Justice, It communicates to the soul the Right of the Divine Light, the Right of Its Sanctity, the Right of Its Beauty, of Its Goodness, of Its Love.  

“She lives in the Sea of My Will by Right—not as a stranger, but as the owner, because she has her acts changed into Divine Rights that have rendered her the conqueror of My Divine Will.  And if you knew how much We delight, how happy We feel, in seeing the littleness of the creature living in the Sea of Our Volition—not as a stranger, but as the owner; not as servant, but as queen; not as poor, but as immensely rich—and rich in Our Conquests that she has made in Our Fiat.  Therefore, one who lives in Our Divine Volition will feel within herself, by Right, the Dominion of Light, the Dominion of Sanctity, the Dominion of Beauty, and of making herself as beautiful as she wants.  She has Goodness at her disposal, Love as the substance of her acts, My Divine Will as her own life—and completely her own; and all this by Divine Right, given by Our very Selves.  Therefore, be attentive in multiplying your acts in Our adorable Fiat!”

[Jesus speaking]

“… Cling to Me, for I have come to keep you company and to receive yours in exchange. See, I am the God isolated by creatures; I live in their midst, I am Life of each one of their acts, while they keep Me as if I were not with them. Oh, how I cry over My Loneliness! I have had the same lot as the Sun: while it lives in the midst of all with its light and heat, and there is no fecundity which does not come from it, and with its heat it purifies the earth from so many filthy things, and its goods are incalculable which, with magnanimity, it makes descend upon all, yet, it lives up high, always alone, while man, ungrateful, never sends a ‘thank you’ to it, or a sign of gratitude.

“So I am - alone! always alone, while, being in their midst, I am Light of every thought, Sound of every word, Motion of every work, Step of every foot, Beat of every heart. Yet, man, ungrateful, leaves Me alone, and he says not a ‘thank You’ to Me, not one ‘I love You’.

“I remain isolated in his intelligence, because he uses the Light I give to him for himself, and maybe even to offend Me. I remain isolated in his words, because many times the sound that they form serves to blaspheme against Me. I remain isolated in his works, which he uses to kill Me; in his steps and in his heart, which are intent only on disobeying Me and on loving what does not belong to Me. Oh, how this loneliness weighs on Me! But My Love, My Magnanimity, is so great that, more than sun, I continue My Course, and in My Course I keep investigating whether anyone wants to keep Me company in so much loneliness. And as I find him, I form My Perennial Company in him, and I lavish all My Graces upon him. This is why I have come to you — I was tired of so much loneliness. Never leave Me alone, My daughter.”

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.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - June 24, 1934 Volume 33

“… Now, My daughter, do you know who receives Our Heartbeat of created things, Our Aim, the Knowledges, and gives Us her heartbeat, her exchange of love?  One who Lives in Our Will.  As the creature enters into It, with Its Wings of Light as arms It presses her to Its Bosom, and since she possesses Its Incessant Act It says:  ‘Look at Me, how I am operating, rather let us do it together so that you know what I do, My distinct Love from one created thing to the other, and you receive all these degrees of My Ardent Love in a way as to cover yourself and let yourself be drowned by Love, but so much so, that you will not know how to tell Me anything but that you Love Me, you Love Me, you Love Me.  If you do not know you will not be capable of receiving the Fullness of Love, nor enjoy the fruits of Our Works.  

“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.’  …”

Divine Will for every day of the year - June 23, 1931 Volume 29

But while my mind wandered by going around in the created things, my Highest Good, Jesus, told me:  “My daughter, all Creation manifests the Divine Paternity, the Power, the Love, the Harmony of He who created It.  But do you know of whom do We feel Ourselves Father?  Of one who remembers and recognizes all Creation as property of her Creator, who, wanting to manifest His Paternity toward the creatures, created so many beautiful things for love of them.  So, one who recognizes them in order to requite Him by loving Him and thanking Him, draws closer around her Celestial Father as a daughter who recognizes His Goods, and that, if He created them, it means that He wants His daughter to possess His Possessions within the Possessions of her Father.  If you knew what Our Joy and Happiness is in feeling Ourselves Father, and in seeing Our children close around Us by means of Our created things.  So, the creature, by remembering and recognizing what God has done for her, loves Us as her Father, as We love her as Our daughter; We feel that Our Paternity is not a sterile Paternity, but fecund.  In the same way, with one who remembers and recognizes what I did and suffered in My Life and Passion, I feel Myself Redeemer, and I give her to possess the goods of Redemption.  So, My Pains, My Works, My Steps, line up around the happy creature in order to help her, sanctify her, and make her feel, within herself, the effects of all My Life.  And with one who recognizes what Our Love has done and can do in the order of Grace, I feel Myself passionate Lover, and I give her the possession of My Love, in such a way that she will feel such love for Me as to be unable to live without loving Me.  And since true love is in always doing My Will, I make of her a prodigy of My Love and of My Will. …

“Therefore, be attentive; recognize Our Goods, Our Works, and you will feel Our Paternity in the heavens, studded with stars that, in their meek twinkling, call you daughter and attest to you the love of your Father.  Our Paternity extends in the sun that, with its vibrant light, calls you daughter and says to you:  ‘Recognize in My Light the great Gift of your Father, who loves you so much, that He wants you to be the possessor of this Light.’  Our Paternity extends everywhere:  in the water you drink, in the food you take, in the varieties of the beauties of all nature.  They have a common voice, all calling you daughter of the Great Celestial Father, and, as a daughter of His, they want to be possessed by you.  Now, what would be Our Contentment if, in all things created by Us, at Our tender voice calling you daughter, We heard your voice calling Us Father, and saying to Us:  ‘This is a gift of my Father.  Oh! how He loves me—and I want to love Him very, very much.’”

Divine Will for every day of the year - June 22, 1920 Volume 12

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.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - 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.” …

[Jesus speaking]…“As for the rest, I do not want you to think about it, because the most perfect, the most sublime humility is that of losing every reason and of not discoursing on ‘why’ and ‘how’, but of undoing oneself in one’s own nothingness.  And while the soul does this, without realizing it, she finds herself dissolved in God, and this produces in the soul the union most intimate, the love most perfect toward her highest Good.  This, however, to the greatest advantage of the soul, because in losing her own reason, she acquires Divine Reason, and in losing every discoursing about herself – whether she is cold or warm, whether the things that happen to her are favorable or adverse – she will be interested in and will acquire a language fully Celestial and Divine.  In addition to this, humility produces a garment of safety in the soul, in such a way that, wrapped in this garment of safety, the soul remains in the most profound calm, embellishing all of herself in order to be pleasing to her dearest and beloved Jesus.” …

Continuing in my usual state, I felt submerged in the Supreme Will of my sweet Jesus. It seemed to me that every little act of mine done in the Divine Will made New Contentments come out from the Divine Majesty; and my lovable Jesus told me: “My daughter, I possess such Contentments, Happiness and Beatitudes that I could give ever New Joys and Beatitudes in every instant. So, every time the soul operates in My Will, she gives Me the field to release New Beatitudes and New Contentments which I possess. And since My Will is Immense and invades everyone and everything, as they come out, they flow over the soul who is operating in My Will, as the Primary Cause for which My Beatitudes are being released, and then they circulate in everyone, both in Heaven and on earth. Therefore, as many times as you operate in My Will, so many more Beatitudes and Joys do you make Me release, and I feel the contentment of sharing the Joys I possess.

“My Will wants to release what It possesses, but It keeps looking for one who would give It the occasion, one who is disposed to receive, one who prepares a little place in her soul in which to place these New Contentments of Mine. Now, by wanting to do My Will, the soul opens the doors of My Volition, and emptying herself of her own volition, she prepares a little place for Me in which to place My Goods. And as she enters into My Will to operate, she gives Me the occasion to release New Beatitudes from Myself. Therefore, I anxiously await that the soul come to operate in My Eternal Volition, in order to unleash a New Joy from Myself, and make Myself known as the God Who is never exhausted, and Who always has something to give to one who does My Will.”
