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