MATERNAL APPEAL

 MATERNAL APPEAL

THE APPEAL OF THE QUEEN OF HEAVEN FOR HER CHILDREN TO COME

INTO THE KINGDOM OF THE DIVINE WILL

From “The Virgin Mary in the Kingdom of the Divine Will”

Dearest daughter, I feel the irresistible need to come down from Heaven to make you my maternal visits. If you assure me of your filial love and faithfulness, I will remain always with you in your soul, to be your teacher, model, example and most tender Mother.

I come to invite you to enter the Kingdom of your Mama – the Kingdom of the Divine Will – and I knock at the door of your heart, that you may open it to me. You know, with my own hands I bring you this book as a gift; I offer it to you with maternal care so that, in reading it, you may learn in your turn to live from Heaven and no longer from the earth.

This book is of gold, my daughter. It will form your spiritual fortune and your happiness also on earth. In it you will find the fount of all goods: if you are weak, you will acquire strength; if you are tempted, you will achieve victory; if you have fallen into sin, you will find the compassionate and powerful hand which will raise you again. If you feel afflicted, you will find comfort; if cold, the surest way to get warm; if hungry, you will enjoy the delicious food of the Divine Will. With It you will lack nothing; you will no longer be alone, because your Mama will keep you sweet company and with all her maternal care will take on the commitment to making you happy. I, Celestial Empress, will take care of all your needs, provided that you agree to live united with me.

If you knew my anxiety, my ardent sighs, and also the tears I shed for my children! If you knew how I burn with desire that you listen to my lessons, all of Heaven, and learn to live from the Divine Will!

In this book you will see wonders; you will find a mama who loves you so much as to sacrifice her own beloved Son for you, in order to allow you to live of that very life from which she lived on earth.

Do not give me this sorrow – do not reject me. Accept this gift of Heaven I am bringing you; welcome my visit and my lessons. Know that I will go all over the world; I will go to each individual, to all families, to religious communities, to every nation, to all peoples, and if needed, I will go about for entire centuries until, as Queen, I have formed my people, and as Mother, my children, who may know the Divine Will and let It reign everywhere. Here is the purpose of this book. Those who will welcome it with love will be the first fortunate children to belong to the Kingdom of the divine Fiat, and with gold characters I will write their names in my maternal heart.

Do you see, my daughter? That same infinite love of God, Who wanted to use me in the Redemption to make the Eternal Word descend upon earth, calls me into the field once again, entrusting to me the difficult task, the sublime mandate to form the children of theKingdomofHis Divine Willon earth. Therefore, with maternal care I put myself to work, preparing for you the way which will lead you to this happy Kingdom. For this purpose I will give you sublime and celestial lessons, and, finally, I will teach you special and new prayers, through which you will bind the heavens, the sun, the creation, my own life and that of my Son, and all the acts of the saints, so that in your name they may beseech the adorable Kingdom of the Divine Volition. These prayers are the most powerful because they bind the divine work itself. Through them God will feel disarmed and won over by the creature. Confident of this help, you will hasten the coming of His most happy Kingdom, and with me you will obtain that the Divine Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven, according to the desire of the Divine Master.

Courage, my daughter; make me content, and I will bless you.

DIVINE APPEAL

 DIVINE APPEAL

With His Father and the Holy Spirit, the Divine King appeals to His children on earth to come now and enter into the Kingdom of His Will.

My dear and beloved children,

I come into your midst with My Heart all drowned in flames of Love. I come as a Father to be among My children because I love you so very much. My Love is so great that I come to remain with you so that we may live together with one, single Will; with one, single Love…. As I come to you, I bring with Me My pains, My Blood, My works, and even My very death.

Look at Me. Each drop of My Blood, each of My pains and steps, and all the things I did compete with one another because they want to give you My Divine Will. Even My death wants to give rebirth to the Life of My Will in you.

I have prepared everything for you in My Humanity; and I have prayed for and obtained graces, helps, light and strength for you to receive a Gift so Great. On My part I have done everything; so now I am waiting for you to do your part. Who would be so ungrateful as to turn Me away and not welcome the Gift I am bringing to you?

Know that My Love is so great that I will forget about your past life, your sins, all your evils; and I will bury them in the ocean of My Love to burn them all away; and then we will begin a new life together, all of My Will.

Who would have the heart to refuse Me and send Me away without accepting My visit which is so full of a Father’s Love? But, if you will welcome Me, I will remain with you as a Father in the midst of His children. Then we must be in the greatest accord and live together with one Will alone.

Oh, how much I long for this! How I moan, how I cry, even going into delirium, and weeping because I want My dearest children to gather around Me and live with My very own Will.

It has been almost six thousand years; and My Humanity has sighed so much and shed so many bitter tears because I want My children to come back and live together with Me. I want them around Me to make them holy and happy again. I weep and weep as I call to them to come back to Me. Who would not be moved to compassion over My tears and My Love which goes so far as to suffocate Me, even choking Me. Among sighs and agonies of Love, I go about repeating: “My children, where are you? Why don’t you come back to your Father? Why do you go away from Me? Why do you want to wander about poor, and full of so many miseries? Your misfortunes are wounds to My Heart. I am weary of waiting for you.” And, since you do not come back to Me, I come in search of you because I can no longer contain the Love that consumes Me; and I am bringing you the great Gift of My Will. Oh, I beg you, I plead with you, be moved to compassion for My so many tears and ardent sighs!

I come to you not only as a Father but also as a Teacher among His disciples… I want you to listen to Me because I will be teaching you surprising things, lessons of Heaven, which will carry with them a Light that will never go out and a blazing Love which endures forever…. My lessons will give you a divine strength, an invincible courage, a holiness which keeps growing more and more. These lessons will light the way for your steps and will guide you along the way to your Heavenly Fatherland.

I come as a King to live among His people, but not for the purpose of levying taxes and heaping burdens upon you. No, no! I come because I want your will, your miseries, your weaknesses, all your evils. My sovereignty is really this: I want everything that distresses you and causes you to be unhappy and restless so that I can hide it within My Love and burn it all away. As the beneficent, pacific, and magnanimous King that I am, I want to exchange My Will for yours, filling you with My most tender Love, with My riches and happiness, with My peace and most pure joy.

If you will give Me your will, all will be done just as I have said; and you will make Me happy, and you will be happy too. I long for nothing else than for My Will to reign among you. Heaven and earth will be smiling at you. My Heavenly Mamma will be sure to be a Mother and Queen to you. She knows the great good that the  Kingdom of My Will will bring to you; and, in order to satisfy My ardent desires and to stop My weeping, and because She loves you as Her true children, She is traveling amongst the people of the nations disposing and preparing them to receive the dominion of the Kingdom of My Will. It was She who prepared the people for Me so that I could descend from Heaven to earth. And now I am entrusting to Her, and to Her Maternal Love, the task of disposing the souls of our people to receive a Gift so great.

So please listen to Me. And I beg you, My children, to read very attentively these pages that I am placing before you. If you will do this, you will feel the need to live in My Will and I will be standing right beside you when you read, touching your mind and your heart so that you will understand what you read and truly want the Gift of My Divine “Fiat.”

Our Lady of America speaks about the United States

 Our Lady of America. This is the title by which the Virgin Mother, in a series of private revelations and apparitions to Sr. Mary Ephrem Neuzil (1916-2000) of the Congregation of Sisters of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus, indicated how she wished to be known and honored in the United States, first of all in the Basilica-sanctuary of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C., national Shrine of Mary for the United States, and then in the entire American nation, as it were the connatural extension of this Marian sanctuary under this title.

The prayers composed by the visionary either under the direction or dictation of the Blessed Mother received the Imprimatur of Bishop Leibold in 1963 (the signature for the Nihil Obstat of the Censor librorum being that of the Rev. Daniel Pilarczyk, STD, present Archbishop of Cincinnati).Here is how Our Lady replied in 1984:

My faithful one, if my warnings are taken seriously and enough of my children strive constantly and faithfully to renew and reform themselves in their inward and outward lives, then there will be no nuclear war. What happens to the world depends upon those who live in it. There must be much more good than evil prevailing in order to prevent the holocaust that is so near approaching. 

Yet I tell you, my daughter, even should such a destruction happen because there were not enough souls who took my warning seriously, there will remain a remnant—untouched by the chaos who, having been faithful in following me and spreading my warnings, will gradually inhabit the earth again with their dedicated and holy lives. These will renew the earth in the power and light of the Holy Spirit. These faithful ones of my children will be under my protection and that of the Holy Angels, and they will partake of the life of the Divine Trinity in a most remarkable way.

Let my children know this, precious daughter, so that they will have no excuse if they fail to heed my warnings.

Prayer of Our Lady of America

The Garment of the Divine Will

 THE GARMENT OF THE DIVINE WILL

(all excerpts taken from the Book of Heaven)

June 12, 1899

“Jesus seemed to clothe my soul with the garment of Faith, of Hope and of Charity, and in the very act of clothing me, Jesus whispered to me the way I was to exercise myself in these three virtues.”

Nov. 21, 1899

“…our dear Queen Mama came to my help, carrying a pure white garment in Her hands, and all loving, She told me: “Daughter, do not fear; I Myself want to make up for you by clothing you with my innocence, so that, in reflecting Himself in you, my Son may find the greatest delight that can be found in a human creature.”  

“So She clothed me with that garment and She offered me to my dear Good, Jesus, telling Him: “Accept her out of regard for me, O dear Son, and delight in her.”

June 20, 1900

“…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.”

Oct. 31. 1900

I found the Queen Mama. As She saw me, She began to speak about Justice, and how It is about to clash with all Its fury against the people. She said many things about this, but I don’t have the words to express them. In the meantime I could see the whole of heaven filled with points of swords against the world. Then She added: “My daughter, you have disarmed divine Justice many times, contenting yourself with receiving Its blows upon yourself. Now that you see It at the summit of Its fury, do not lose heart, but be courageous; with heart full of holy fortitude, enter into this Justice and disarm It. Do not be afraid of the swords, of the fire, or of anything you may encounter; in order to obtain the intent, if you see yourself wounded, beaten, burned, rejected, do not draw back, but rather, let this be a spur for you to move on. See, so that you may do this, I Myself have come to your help by bringing you a garment; as your soul wears it, you will acquire courage and fortitude so as to fear nothing.” Having said this, from within Her mantle She pulled out a garment woven with gold, streaked with various colors, and She clothed my soul. Then She gave me Her Son, telling me: “And now, as a pledge of my love, I place my dearest Son in your custody, that you may keep Him, love Him and content Him in everything. 

Try to act in my stead, so that, as He finds all His contentment in you, the discontent that all the others give Him may not cause Him too much pain.” 

May 30, 1904

“…my Passion serves as garment for man, which covers his greatest miseries, embellishes him and gives back to him all the good of which he had deprived himself and had lost because of sin. So I give it to you as gift, that you may use it for yourself and for whomever you want.” On hearing this, a great fear came to me in seeing the greatness of the gift, fearing that I might not be capable of using this gift and therefore I might displease the Giver. So I said: ‘Lord, I do not feel the strength to accept such a gift - I am too unworthy of such a favor. It is better if You keep it, for You are everything and know everything, and You know to whom it is necessary and appropriate to apply this garment so precious and of immense value. But I, poor one, what can I know? And if it is necessary to apply it to someone and I do not do it, what strict account would You not ask of me?’ And Jesus: “Do not fear, for the Giver Himself will give you the grace not to keep the gift He has given you as useless. Can you believe that I would give you a gift to do you harm? Never.” I did not know what to answer, but I remained frightened and suspended, intending to hear what lady obedience thought about it. It is understood, however, that this garment wants to signify nothing other than all that Our Lord operated, earned and suffered, in which the creature finds the garment to cover her nakedness stripped of virtues, and riches with which to enrich herself, beauties to render herself beautiful and to embellish herself, and the remedy for all her evils.”

June 22, 1906  

Continuing in my state of sufferings, ever increasing, blessed Jesus came for a little, and showed me a garment, all adorned and whole, without seam and opening, suspended above my person. While I was seeing this, He told me: “My beloved, this garment is similar to my garment, which I have communicated to you by having shared with you the pains of my Passion, and by having chosen you as victim. This garment covers and protects the world, and since it is whole, no one can escape its protection. But the world, with its abuses, no longer deserves to be covered by this garment, but to feel all the weight of the divine indignation. So I am about to draw it to Myself, to be able to give vent to my justice, which has been restrained for a long time by this garment.” 

At that moment, it seemed that the light I had seen in the past days was inside this garment, and the Lord awaited both one and the other to absorb them into Himself.

Oct. 15, 1919

“…as the soul enters into the Divine Volition, she strips herself of herself, and I clothe her of Me, with royal garments; and these garments place on her the seal that she is my daughter. My Kingdom, just as It is Mine, is hers; and defending Our rights, she takes part in judging and in condemning others.”

Jan. 1, 1920

“My daughter, my Will is wheel, and one who enters into It remains encircled inside, to the point of not being able to find an opening to go out; and everything she does remains fixed on the eternal point, and pours into the wheel of eternity. But do you know what the garments are of the soul who lives in my Will? They are not of gold, but of most pure light; and this garment of light will serve her as mirror to make all of Heaven see how many acts she has done in my Will. In fact, in each act she has done in my Will, she enclosed the whole of Me, and this garment will be adorned with many mirrors, and in each mirror the whole of Me will appear. So, from whatever side she will be looked at - from behind, from the front, to the right, to the left - they will see Me, and multiplied for as many acts as she has done in my Volition. A more beautiful garment I could not give her; it will be the distinction of only the souls who live in my Will.”

Sept. 24, 1922

“My daughter, cover Me and warm Me, for I am cold. See, the creature, by sin, had stripped herself of all goods, and I wanted to form for her a more beautiful garment, weaving it with my works, pearling it with my Blood, and adorning it with my wounds. But what is not my sorrow in seeing this garment, so beautiful, being rejected, as she contents herself with remaining naked? And I feel stripped in them, and I feel their cold. Therefore clothe Me, for I need it.” 

And I: ‘How can I clothe You? I have nothing.’ And He: “Indeed you can clothe Me - you have my whole Will in your power. Absorb It into yourself and then put It out, and you will make Me the most beautiful garment - a garment of Heaven, and divine. Oh! how warmed I will be; and I will clothe you with the garment of my Will, so that we may be clothed with one single uniform.”

Feb. 28, 1926

More so, since in order to live in my Will, the soul is first stripped of the garments of the old guilty Adam, and is clothed anew with the garments of the new and holy Adam. Her garment is the light of the Supreme Will Itself, through which all Its divine manners are communicated to her, which are noble and communicative to all. This light makes her lose the human features and restores in her the physiognomy of her Creator. What is the wonder, then, if you take part in all that the Divine Will possesses, since one is the life and one the Will? Therefore, be attentive. I recommend to you - be always faithful to Me, and your Jesus will keep the pace of making you live always in my Will. I will be on guard, that you may never go out of It.” 

 Feb. 26 1927

Therefore, operating in my Will is the greatest miracle, and the fullness of all acts united together, and the triumph of the Divine act in the human act, because my Will was as though sterile in the midst of creatures, and It is now made happy by Its first daughter, in whom It sees Its many newborns who will come to light. So, It will no longer live as a sterile mother in the midst of the people, but as a mother fecund with many children. It used to be a widow, because in creating the first man It espoused the human nature, dowering it with the immense riches of Its Will, as the seal of the marriage It formed with man. As he withdrew from It, It remained a widow for many centuries; but now It has removed the mourning of Its widowhood, and marrying again, It has taken Its garments of bride and has released Its dowries into the field, once again - and the seal of the dowries are the knowledges about It, through which It offers the gift of the riches It possesses. Therefore, my daughter, be attentive in preserving your garments of bride, and in enjoying the dominions that my Will has given you as dowry.”

Acts done in the Divine Will

 ACTS DONE IN THE DIVINE WILL

“My daughter, in the soul there are two characters: the human and the divine. The divine descends from the unity, and in order to receive the divine character, the soul must live in the unity of my Will. In this unity, as she forms her acts, they rise in the unity of her Creator – in that single act of God which is such that, while one act alone is formed in God Himself, the light of this single act descends down below, invests everyone and everything, and embracing everything, gives to each one the act that is needed by multiplying to infinity the multiplicity of all possible imaginable acts. Therefore, as the creature does her acts in this unity, they acquire the divine characters – that while it is one single act, they enclose all acts together. Oh! how beautiful it is to do everything with one single act. Only God has this virtue so powerful, that with one single act He does everything, embraces everything, gives the operating to everything. What great difference between the divine and the human character. The human does many acts, many works, but the creature remains always encircled within her acts; it seems that they have no light to extend and diffuse to all; they have no feet to walk – wherever they are done, there do they remain. So, as much as a creature might do, her acts are numbered, restricted, and therefore the character of the human operating is so dissimilar from the operating of the divine unity and from one who operates in it, that it is easily erased and remains without seed of fecundity. This is why I want the soul to live in the unity of my Will – to make her acquire the divine characters, which are indelible and eternal, and, like light, they diffuse, they expand, they multiply, they give themselves to all; even more, they have supremacy over the acts of all. If you knew how much pleasure the Divinity takes in seeing your littleness rise in the unity of the one divine act that never ceases, to unite your acts within Our single act – you, to give Us your own, and We, to give you Our own and to impress in you the character of Our single act…. You put Us in feast, and We feel the happiness, the joy of having created the Creation. So, in order to be more attentive, you must be convinced that your living in Our Will is the feast that the creature can bring to her Creator; and the more acts you do in It, the more times you renew Our joys and Our happinesses on your part; and bringing Us the whole Creation on your lap, you give Us the glory and the requital of love for Its having being created by Us.”   December 30, 1927

– nothing is useless of what is done for Me. In fact, when the soul does even just one act for Me, she comes to enclose the whole of Me within her act; and by enclosing Me, her act acquires the value of a divine life, which is more than sun. And the sun, by its own nature, excels over all other things in giving light, heat and effects of innumerable goods to all the earth; so, everything that is done for Me, by its own nature, must bring the effects of the great good which the divine life contains.  December 22, 1927

Abandonment to the Will of God

 ABANDONMENT TO THE WILL OF GOD

Volume 1 – “What I want from you is that you abandon yourself in my arms as if you were

dead. Until you keep your eyes opened to look at what I am doing and at what the creatures do

and say, I cannot operate freely upon you. Don’t you want to trust Me? Don’t you know how

much I love you, and that everything I allow, either through creatures, or from demons, or

directly from Me, is truly for your good and serves for nothing but to lead the soul to that

state for which I have chosen her? Therefore, I want you to remain in my arms with your eyes

closed, without looking at and investigating this or that, trusting Me completely, and letting Me

operate freely.”

Volume 12, July 2, 1918 - I was saying to my beloved Jesus: ‘Jesus, I love You; but my love is

small, therefore I love You in your love, to make it great. I want to adore You with your

adorations, pray in your prayer, thank You in your 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,

yours 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,

prayed, 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, it takes great abandonment in

Me. And as the soul abandons herself in Me, I abandon Myself in her; and filling her with

Myself, I Myself do what she must do for Me. But if she does not abandon herself, then what she

does remains fixed in her, not in Me; and I feel the operating of the creature as full of

imperfections and miseries - which cannot please Me.”

Vol. 12, August 6, 1919 – “Abandonment in Me is the image of two torrents, each one unloading

itself into the other with such impetus, that their waters blend together; and forming gigantic

waves of water, they arrive at even touching Heaven, to the point that the bed of those torrents

remains dry. And the roaring of those waters, their murmuring, is so sweet and harmonious,

that Heaven, in seeing Itself touched by those waters, feels honored and shines with new

beauty; and the Saints, in chorus, say: ‘This is the sweet sound and the harmony that

enraptures, of a soul who has abandoned herself in God. How beautiful it is - how beautiful it

is!’”

Another day He told me: “What do you fear? Abandon yourself in Me, and you will remain

surrounded by Me as though within a circle, in such a way that if enemies, occasions or dangers

come, they will have to deal with Me, not with you; and I will answer for you. True

abandonment in Me is rest for the soul and work for Me; and if the soul is restless, it means

that she is not abandoned in Me - a just pain restlessness is, for one who wants to live of her

own, doing great wrong to Me, and great harm to herself.”

Volume 13, Oct. 18, 1921 – “...disturbance is nothing other than lack of abandonment in Me,

and I want you so abandoned in my arms, that you must have not even one thought of

yourself; and I will take care of everything.”

Volume 16, Feb. 10, 1924 – “If the soul did not live completely abandoned in my Will, she would

be like someone who lived in a sumptuous palace, and now leaned out of a window, now out of

a balcony, now went down to the main door. So, only seldom or in passing does the poor one

pass through some of the rooms, and therefore she knows little of the regime, of the work that

is needed, of the goods which are there present, of what she can take, and of what she can give.

Who knows how many goods are in there, and she knows little about it, therefore she does not

love that palace as she should love it, nor does she esteem it as it deserves.

Now, for the soul who lives in my Will and is not completely abandoned in It, self-reflections,

cares for herself, fears, disturbances, are nothing other than windows, balconies, and main

doors that she forms in my Will; and by going out very often, she is forced to see and feel the

miseries of human life. And since the miseries are her own property, while the riches of my Will

are mine, she becomes more attached to the miseries than to the riches, and so she will not

come to love, nor will she enjoy what it means to live in my Will. And having formed the main

door, one day or another she will go away to live in the miserable hovel of her own will. See,

then, how complete abandonment in Me is necessary in order to live in my Will. My Will does

not need the miseries of the human will; It wants the creature to live together with It - beautiful,

just as It delivered her from Its womb, without the miserable provision that she has formed for

herself in the exile of life. Otherwise, there would be disparity, which would bring sorrow to my

Will and unhappiness to the human will.”

Volume 20, Nov. 16, 1926 – “...the more you abandon yourself in the Supreme Will, the more

you advance along Its ways, the more knowledges you acquire, and the more you take

possession of the goods which are in the Divine Will; because in It there is always something to

know and to take.”

Vol. 32, April 23, 1933 - “The virtue of abandonment is the greatest virtue, it is binding God

such that He takes care of the abandoned one in His Arms. Abandonment says to God: ‘I do not

want to know anything of myself; this life of mine is Yours, not mine, and Yours is mine.’

Therefore, if you want to obtain everything, if you want to Truly Love Me, live abandoned in My

arms, let Me hear the echo of My Life in every instant: ‘Into Your hands I abandon myself

completely,’ and I will carry you in My arms as the dearest of My children.”

Volume 35, Mar. 6, 1938 – “My daughter, when the creature abandons herself in our Will, our

satisfaction is so great that she pours into Us, and We pour into her, giving her our new Life, new

love, new sanctity and new knowledge of our Supreme Being. When the creature abandons

herself in our Divine Volition, We can make the greatest prodigies and the most surprising graces

in her, since our own Will will receive and deposit what We want to give to the creature. By

abandoning herself in our Will, she storms Heaven, and her empire is such that she imposes

herself over our Divine Being, enclosing It within her littleness; while she, triumphant, encloses

herself within our Divine Womb.”

Volume 36, June 12, 1938 – “Oh, if everyone abandoned themselves in my arms! The earth

would disappear for them, they wouldn't pay attention to anybody, I would be enough for all.

I love, so much, the one who lives abandoned in my arms that I show her the greatest excesses

of my love, my love jokes, my caresses. I reach the point of inventing new love tricks to keep

them busy and centered in my love. Therefore, live abandoned in my arms and in everything you

will find your Jesus defending, helping and sustaining you."

Vol. 36, Sept. 5, 1938 - “...I was thinking to myself: it seems to me difficult to live in It; how can

the creature reach this point? The human weaknesses, the circumstances of life, many times,

are too painful; the unexpected encounters, the so many difficulties that one doesn't even know

what to do - wouldn't all these things lead the creature astray from a life so holy that it would

take a perfect attention not to? And my sweet Jesus, continuing His say with such a tenderness

that I felt my heart exploding, added: "My little daughter of my Will, my interest and my

continuous yearning for the creature to live in my Will is such that, once we've made the

agreement, Myself and her, with a firm decision that she must live in my Fiat - this being My

Will - I am the first one who makes the sacrifice to obtain the intent, so that she may live in It. I

place Myself at her disposal. I give her all the graces, light, love and the very knowledge of my

Will, so that she herself has to feel the need to live in It. When I want something, and she

promptly accepts doing what I want, I take care of everything; and when she fails for

weakness, for inconstancy or for negligence, not for will, I come to compensate, and I do what

she was supposed to do, transferring to her what I did as if she had done it.”

From In Sinu Jesu, When Heart Speaks to Heart -

“How does one come to that degree of trust? By entrusting to Me very little things, day by

day, as they arise, and by leaving them to Me. This was also the wisdom of My priest Don

Dolindo. ‘Jesus’, he used to say to Me, ‘you take care of this.’ And then he went his way

lighthearted and confident that I would honor the confidence he placed in Me.”

Jesus, I abandon myself to you. You take care of everything!

Importance of the Knowledges

 IMPORTANCE OF THE KNOWLEDGES

Vol. 13, August 25, 1921

"Every time I speak to you about my Will and you acquire new understanding and knowledge,

your act in my Will receives more value and you acquire more immense riches. It happens as

to a man who possesses a gem, and knows that this gem is worth a penny: he is rich one penny.

Now, it happens that he shows his gem to a skilled expert, who tells him that his gem has a

value of five thousand liras. That man no longer possesses one penny, but he is rich five

thousand liras. Now, after some time he has the opportunity to show his gem to another expert,

even more experienced, who assures him that his gem contains the value of one hundred

thousand liras, and is ready to buy it if he wants to sell. Now that man is rich one hundred

thousand liras. According to his knowledge of the value of his gem, he becomes richer, and feels

greater love and appreciation for the gem; he keeps it in custody more jealously, knowing that

the gem is all his fortune, while before he held it as a trifle. Yet, the gem has not changed – that

which it was, so it is now; he is the one who has changed, by understanding the value that the

gem contains.

Now, the same happens with my Will, as well as with virtues. According to how the soul

understands their value and acquires knowledge of them, she comes to acquire new values

and new riches in her acts. Therefore, the more you know my Will, the more your act will

acquire value. Oh, if you knew what seas of graces I open between you and Me every time I

speak to you about the effects of my Will, you would die of joy and would make feast, as if

you had acquired new reigns to dominate!"

Volume 18, December 25, 1925

I was thinking about what is said above – that the Divine Will is a gift, and, as gift, one possesses

It as one’s own; on the other hand, one who does the Will of God must submit to commands,

and ask very often what he must do, and to be lent the gift - not to be owner of it, but to do

that action which God wants, and, once it is done, give back the gift he had borrowed. Many

images and similes formed in my mind about one who lives in the Divine Volition and possesses

It as a gift, and one who does the Most Holy Will of God, who not only does not possess the

fullness of the gift, but, if he possesses It, it is at intervals and as a loan. I am going to tell some

of those similes.

I imagined I had a gold coin, which had the virtue of making arise as many coins as I wanted.

Oh! how rich I could become with this gift. On the other hand, someone else receives this gift

as a loan for one hour, or in order to carry out one action of his, to then give it back

immediately. What difference between my richness because of the gift I possess, and that of

one who receives it as a loan! Or, [I imagined] I had received the gift of a light which never goes

out; so, both at night and during the day, I am safe, I always have the good of seeing this light,

which no one can take away from me. It becomes as though a natural part of me, and it gives

me the good of knowing what is good in order to do it, and what is evil in order to escape it. So,

with this light that I received as gift, I sneer at all – at the world, at the enemy, at my passions,

and even at myself. This light is perennial source of happiness for me; it is without weapons,

and it defends me; it is without voice, and it instructs me; it is without hands and feet, and it

directs my way, making itself the sure guide to bring me to Heaven. On the other hand,

someone else has to go and ask for this light when he feels the need for it, therefore he does

not have it at his disposal. Not being used to always looking with this light, he does not possess

the knowledge of good and evil, and has not enough strength to do good and to avoid evil. So,

not possessing the light, turned on and continuous, in how many deceptions, dangers and

narrow ways does he not find himself? What difference between one who possesses this light

as his own gift, and one who has to go and ask for it when he needs it.

Now, while my mind wandered amid many similes, I said to myself: ‘So, the living in the Will of

God is to possess the Will of God, and this is a gift. Therefore, if the goodness of God does

not condescend to give It, what can the poor creature do?’ At that moment, my lovable Jesus

moved in my interior, as though clasping me all to Himself, and told me: “My daughter, it is true

that the living in my Will is a gift, and it is to possess the greatest gift; but this gift - which

contains infinite value, which is currency that arises at each instant, which is light that never

goes out, which is sun that never sets, which puts the soul in her place, established by God in

the divine order, and therefore she takes her place of honor and of sovereignty in the Creation –

is given but to one who is disposed, to one who will not waste it, to one who will esteem it so

much and love it more than his own life; even more, he must be ready to sacrifice his own life

so that this gift of my Will may have supremacy over everything, and be held as more than life

itself - even more, his life be nothing compared to It.

Therefore, first I want to see that the soul really wants to do my Will and never her own, that

she is ready to make any sacrifice in order to do Mine, and that in everything she does, she

always asks Me for the gift of my Will, even just as a loan. Then, when I see that she does

nothing without the loan my Will, I give it as gift, because by asking for it over and over again,

she has formed the void within her soul, in which to place this celestial gift; and by becoming

used to living with the loan of this divine food, she has lost the taste for her own will, her palate

has been ennobled and will no longer adapt itself to the vile foods of her own self. Therefore, in

seeing herself in possession of that gift which she longed for, yearned for, and loved so much,

she will live of the Life of that gift, she will love It, and will give It the esteem It deserves.

Would you not condemn a man who, taken by a childish affection for a child, only to have him

around a little bit, to amuse himself with him, would give him a banknote worth a thousand;

and the little boy, not knowing the value of it, tears it to a thousand pieces after a few minutes?

But if, on the other hand, first he makes the child desire it, then he makes him know its value,

then the good which that banknote of a thousand can do for him, and then he gives it to him -

that child will not tear it to pieces, but will go put it under lock and key, appreciating the gift and

loving the giver more; and you would praise that man who had the ability to make known to the

little child the value of money. If man does so, much more I do, who give my gifts with wisdom,

with justice and with true love. Here is, therefore, the necessity of the dispositions, of the

knowledge of the gift, of the esteem and appreciation, and of love for the gift itself. Therefore,

knowledge of It is like the herald of the gift of my Will which I want to give to the creature.

Knowledge prepares the way; knowledge is like the contract I want to make of the gift I want

to give; and the more knowledge I send to the soul, the more she is spurred on to desire the

gift and to solicit the Divine Writer to place the final signature – that the gift is hers and she

possesses it. So, the sign that in these times I want to give this gift of my Will is the

knowledge of It. Therefore, be attentive not to let anything escape you of what I manifest to

you about my Will, if you want Me to place the final signature on the gift which I yearn to give

to creatures.”
