A Poem for Jesus:

Feb., 1998

All that is mine is Yours –

All that is Yours is mine–

Therefore, I give you my mind,

And I take Your mind to think with

I give you my eyes,

And I take Your eyes to see with

I give you my mouth,

And I take Your mouth to speak with

I give you my ears,

And I take Your ears to listen with,

I give you my hands,

And I take Your hands to work with,

I give you my feet,

And I take Your feet to walk with,

I give you my heart,

And I take Your Heart to love with!

Meditation on the Presentation of Jesus:

 Mon. Jan 2, 1995

As Our Holy Mother presented Jesus in the Temple, She present to us Her Heart united to the Heart of Her Son, asking for our hearts in exchange, that She might present them to God the Father.  We must offer our hearts to Them for this spiritual exchange of hearts.

Meditation on the Finding of Jesus in the Temple:

After this exchange of hearts, we find within the temples of our hearts the pure Hearts of Our Holy Mother and Our Lord.  This is where we find Jesus & Mary united with us and where the Triumph of Her Heart will begin.**

**Friday, Feb. 7, 2003, Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament:  (added on 3/6/09)

After receiving Holy Communion; I saw within my soul Jesus sitting upon my heart as if on a throne; His back towards me, looking out, with something like a staff in His right hand.  He spoke to me saying, “It is from here I will reign!”  Jesus then turned into a little child, but remained sitting upon my heart with the staff remaining in His Hand.  Jesus then spoke again saying, “I will reign in those who love Me.”

Meditation, mid-Jan., 1995

As I was meditating on a letter Sr. Maureen wrote me, it came to me that the same way the Church is being pulled apart today, Jesus’ limbs were pulled apart as they nailed Him to the Cross.   As this thought came to me, Jesus spoke to me saying, “You will suffer with Me!”

Meditation on the Presentation of Jesus:

Sat., Feb. 4, 1995

As Our Lady presented the Infant Jesus to God the Father in the Temple, She also presents Him to us each day at the Mass (in the Temple), and also presents each of us to God the Father as She presented Jesus to Him.  As Simeon and Anna knew that this Infant was the son of God, we also must see Him in the Eucharist with the same faith as they did.  We must believe in His true Presence.  Jesus has told me that the “abomination will soon be set up in the temple” and that we must continue to walk in faith – “to be His Light” in the darkness surrounding us.  I have complained to Him to open the hearts of all the people that they may return to Him, and He has told me many times that He “will not impose on their will.”  He cannot enter the hearts of so many as they are hardened and filled with pride – that many of them will be lost.  We are asked to continue to pray for them during this time of Mercy that their hearts may open.   This is where the “abomination” begins – in the heart”, but will “soon be set up in the temple”.  As Our Lady presented Jesus, She by tradition, was to be purified according to the Law (though She was already pure!) – the Church must also be purified!

March 6, 1995, Adoration Chapel:

When you were lost, I found you,

When you were hungry, I fed you,

When you were thirsty, I gave you a drink,

Do for Me what I have done for you.

June 12, 1995, Adoration Chapel:

While meditating on the Resurrection, I thought about why the Apostles did not recognize Our Lord When they saw Him.  He told me they did not recognize Him because they were seeing with their 

“human eyes” and not with the “eyes of their souls.”  Then He said that I was like them – I do not believe that He is speaking to me – that I should “listen with the ears of my soul.”

Meditation, sometime the beginning of 1996:

Our Lord calls out to His Father, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”  The Light from the Father diminishes within Him and Heaven seems to no longer hear Him.  He sees before Him the souls of all those who would abandon Him and the extinguished lights of all those who would be lost forever – being deprived of the ones He could not save – His greatest torment.  How many would be lost?  Did He feel that He suffered in vain?  He sees His Churches and chapels empty – no one is there to console His great sorrow.  He sees those who abandon His Church – His Mystical Body – abandoned by so many.  Even His apostles have abandoned Him.   He is alone with only His Mother to comfort Him.  In sorrow, He cries out, “I thirst!” – thirsting for the souls that He is in agony for, thirsting for the souls He knows He is to die for.  He is truly the “spurned one”.  He continues today to pour out His Mercy for those who are lost, that they might repent and be saved.  He feels as much abandoned today as He did when He hung upon the Cross.  He cries out to the Father for us….(unfinished)

Meditation on the Resurrection, Aug. 10, 1996:

After the sacrifice came the Resurrection – after the sacrifice of the Mass, when we receive Jesus in the Eucharist, our hearts become the tomb where He rests and He is resurrected in us.  I was lead to understand that as His Holy Face was imprinted on the shroud, His Divine Features are also imprinted upon our hearts.  In the promises to those devoted to His Holy Face, Our Lord has said, “They will, as the pious Veronica, wipe my Adorable Face outraged by sin, and I will imprint My Divine Features in the souls.”

Adoration Chapel, Oct. 17, 1996, from Our Lord:

When you are filled with joy – I Am

When you are filled with sorrow – I Am

When you are filled with peace – I Am

When you are filled with Love – I Am

I Am is with you

Meditation of the Presentation, Oct. 21, 1996:

During the Mass, I become a Bethlehem.  The cave where Jesus is to be born is inside my heart.  I try to prepare a place fit for Him to be born, but it is cold and dark inside, and yet, He chooses to be born here.

Upon His arrival, my cave becomes all Light and the darkness and cold within disappear.  Mother Mary wraps Him tightly in my heart as She wrapped Him in swaddling clothes.  The Lord is now with Me!  I go to bring Him to others.  It is time to present Him to God the Father; I bring Him within me to the temple (the Mass) to present Him to the Father.  He leaves my heart as He leaves the arms of Our Mother to be placed in the arms of Simeon (the Priest).  Simeon takes Him into his arms and blesses God.  (My eyes have seen your salvation which you prepared in sight of all the peoples.”  My eyes look at Jesus in the Eucharist – our salvation – prepared in sight of all the people at the Mass.  Then Jesus is given back to me as Simeon handed Him back to Mary.  This “sign that will be contradicted” is now with me.  As I carry Him with me, I know that I too become a sign of contradiction.

Words of Love, because He first loved me, Nov., 1996:

My soul proclaims your greatness, O Lord,

You have breathed life into my famished soul.

You alone meet the hunger which only grace can fill,

The thirst which only You can quench.

Your promises are my hope,

Your Words, the joy of my heart.

Through the sword flowed the Living Water

that flowed through this desert reviving it,

bringing life once again to the parched land.

A whisper heard within my heart,

a bright light which questioned me.

I answered, “Yes”, but did not understand.

You called me to Yourself.

With hands outstretched you beckoned me.

You watered your flower in need of nourishment.

The rays poured out from Your Heart,

pierced for love of me.

You lifted up my soul in your powerful arms,

and held me close to You,

Filling my heart with an unknown love,

leaving your imprint upon my soul.

My spirit rejoices in You, my Savior.

My soul is filled with Your Light.

April 3, 1997:

Sometimes my heart is so filled with joy – I think it may burst;

Sometimes my heart is so filled with sorrow – I think I may die;

Sometimes I feel nothing, neither joy nor sorrow  - these are the worst times;

Oh that I would feel something!  I welcome even sorrow or pain instead of emptiness.

Meditation:  “…and She laid him in a manger because there was no room for them at the Inn” Luke 2:7

Mid-1997:

I pray to become empty – for my heart to become an empty space as the cave in which Jesus was born, and not to be full, as the Inn which had no room.  I pray to you my Mother, to place Jesus in my heart as you placed Him in the manger so that His glorious Light will inflame my poor heart, burning away all the impurities and all that which is not of God, filling the darkness of my soul with His Light.  May all be drawn to His Light as the Shepherd’s were drawn to the cave of His birth.  My Jesus, I pray that you will rest here in my heart where I will warm you with the warmth of Your very Love and form within me the empty space in which you will place the Celestial Gift of the Divine Will.   Amen

Sat., July 5, 1997, Adoration:

I was meditating on the Finding of Jesus in the Temple and the suffering of Mother Mary as She searched for three days for Her Jesus, and I thought about myself when I sometimes do not feel His presence.  How miserable I become!~  At one point during the Mass, I again thought about Our Lady and St. Joseph going in search of Jesus, and He said to me, “I did not leave them!”  I received light to understand that Mary and Joseph brought Jesus to the Temple, but He did not go off leaving them – it was they who left Him.  I knew that He was making me understand that it is never He who leaves us, but us who leave Him.  And where is it that we will find Him?  - in the Temple (the Church) and in the Temple of our hearts where He dwells.”

A few days after this, I picked up the Book of Heaven, Vol. 17, pg. 73, and read, “I do not leave you – no, no.   This is an accusation you make against your Jesus.  I never leave anyone!  The creatures withdraw from Me, not I from them.  Rather, I go behind them and next to them.”

April, 1998, Meditation on the Resurrection:

I thought about Jesus’ words to Mary Magdalene, “Do not touch Me for I have not yet ascended to My Father.”  How holy and pure we must be before we touch our dear Lord.  How many are the impure hands that touch Him each day when receiving Him in the Eucharist!  How many the impure hearts into which He descends each day!

Aug., 1998, Meditation on the Presentation:

I saw Anna as representing all the faithful,  “and coming forward at that very time, she gave thanks to God…”  (Luke 2:38) In faith, we come forward to receive Our Lord in the Holy Eucharist, and we give thanks to God for a gift so great!  We go out from the “Temple” to speak of Jesus to all who will listen, “…and spoke about the child to all who were awaiting the redemption of Jerusalem.”

Aug. 14, 1998:

I was thinking about John the Apostle as he rested his head upon the Heart of Our dear Lord:  John, what did you feel?  What did you hear?  Did you hear His Heart speaking to yours?  Were you engulfed in the flames of love bursting from His adorable Heart?  What did you say to Him?  Oh John, how I desire to rest my head upon the heart of my Jesus once again.  But He is as gone for me.  I no longer feel Him near me as I once did.  Have I not done His Will?  He has given me so many graces.  Have I used them as I should have?  Jesus, as you take your Light from me, I see myself as You see me, and I am sick at what I see!  I feel weighed down by sin, covered with filth and mud – yet my soul still clings to You.  I see myself grabbing on to the hem of Your robe and I will never let go.  I will continue to cling to You, my sweet Jesus, with all my strength.

During the Mass this day, I was praying that You would remember me for I feel so abandoned and alone.  I said to You, Jesus my heart, am I being detached from You? , and I heard very softly within my heart, No, no my Lynne.  You are a part of My Heart.   Would I tear out part of My Heart and throw it away?”

True fasting, Aug., 1998: 

 I now understand what “true fasting is:  it is not the fasting on bread and water, although this is where we begin; it is the denying of self – fasting from what we desire for what God desires.  This does not only relate to food, but to everything.  We must discern what God’s desires are and what are our own.  It is only in this way that we may truly be emptied of self so that God may fill us.  Our Lady has taught us, as children, to fast on bread and water to allow us to understand this ultimate truth.

Sometime the end of 1998:

I wait to hear once again the sound of Your Voice whispering within my soul,

I wait to see once again your beautiful face within my soul,

Oh, how I long for you May God!

I feel as if the Holy Spirit has abandoned me,

And yet, I know you are before me as spectator, watching my every move,

listening to my every word.

Oh, when will you return to me My Divine Master?

You are everything to me, and how can I live without You?

It is a void you are making in my soul which you will fill with Yourself –

Praise you My God – my breath, my life, my all!

Dec. 29, 1998:

Before Mass during prayer, I understood that I had nothing to offer God, that everything comes only from Him – I could not even love Him as I should, and a most beautiful prayer came to me something like this, “I love you my God, but I do not love you as you love me, therefore, I take the love with which you love me and make it my own so that I may offer you this same love with which you have loved me.”  Immediately I heard within my heart, “This is what will make us one!”

Beginning of 1999:

Consider this regarding women who want to be Priests:  I thought about the fourth joyful mystery of the Rosary, the Presenting of Jesus – Our Lady offered Her Son to the Father, not with her hands, but through the hands of Simeon the Priest!  Even the Mother of God did not offer Him through her own hands – if God wanted women to be Priests, certainly it would have been His will to be offered through the hands of The Immaculate One, and not through Simeon’s!

An understanding given through prayer, beginning of Dec., 1999:

I do not have any words to explain this, but in my feeble way I will attempt:

Sometimes after receiving Holy Communion (offered in the Divine Will), I seem to feel nothing within me – it is as though I no longer exist.  I felt this even more today and wondered why this would be.  As soon as this thought came to my mind, I was given Light to understand that as Jesus gave everything of Himself, I, in being united to Him, also must give everything of myself until there is nothing left of me – as the Host is broken and consumed until there is nothing left – so must I be. 

Thurs., July 8, 1999:

Before Mass, I was inspired to pray for everyone to “listen with the ears of their souls and see with the eyes of their souls.”  Just after receiving Holy Communion, I understood that the Eucharistic Reign of Christ will be within our souls (we will see Him with the eyes of our souls), that this is NOT an exterior reign; we will become as living Hosts.  I understood so much but it is impossible for me to explain in words.   Immediately after this, I heard clearly within me, “And you will see Me as I Am!”

Prayer, July, 1999:

Oh my Jesus, please remove from me all that keeps me from living in your Holy Divine Will.  If there is anything of which I am unaware of that keeps me outside of Your Will, make it known to me that I may repent of it so as to live firmly in Your Will.  I ask you to make me into that image you had of me when I was first in Your Thoughts, and do not allow me to distort that image.  May I grow ever more in Your Light as to form a Heaven for you on earth and to be united with you forever for all Eternity.  Amen

A meditation on the prophecy of Simeon:

Heavenly Mother, I enter into Your sorrow at the prophecy of Simeon when you presented with St. Joseph the child Jesus in the Temple.  The joy you felt upon presenting Jesus to the Father was taken away by the words spoken by Simeon, “…and your heart will be pierced also…(Luke 2:34)   Oh, my sorrowful Mother, in these words was the knowledge given to you how many would reject your Motherly embrace and in rejecting you, would also be rejecting your Jesus.  How many souls were contained in your Hearts that would reject the many Graces that you wanted to offer them.  My sweet Mother, to make reparation to you for all the rejection you suffered upon seeing those souls that would not only reject your Jesus, but would also reject you, I bring you the love of all the faithful throughout the ages.  I bring you the love of Jesus, your Son; of the Holy Spirit, your spouse; and Our Heavenly Father, to comfort and console you in this great sorrow.  I will remain always with you upon your lap begging together with you that the Kingdom come on earth, as it is in Heaven.

A poem I wrote many years ago at Christmas time just after having come into the Church:

Our Loving Jesus, meek and mild,

Says “Bring to Me your little child.

Sit him down before me please,

And I will grant him all his needs.”

But we are too busy, we haven’t the time.

“My Gifts are great and beyond compare,

Show Me that you truly care.

I only ask a few moments of your time,

I will give you all I have, because you are mine.”

But we are too busy, we haven’t the time.

“I Am your Father, your Brother, your Friend,

I will never abandon you – I will be with you until the end.

You are my children, this you should know.

I will wait ‘til you come, for I love you so!”

But we are too busy, we haven’t the time.

Sometime Feb, 1996:

After a meditation class (we were meditating on being with Jesus at the Jordan), Sr. Maureen asked me why I didn’t put Jesus’ sandals on my feet when we were meditating.  After I spoke with her, I knew that I had to do this, and immediately I felt fear within me – not even knowing why.  I prayed to Our Lady to take away all my fears and to offer them to Jesus, asking for her help in what I was about to do.

“Jesus is sitting before me.  I kneel down at His feet taking one foot into my hands.  I slip off His sandal and kiss the wound on His foot.  I now take the other foot into my hands and do the same.  I stand up and slip both sandals onto my own feet saying as I do so, “Yes, I will lord, because I love you.”  I follow Jesus who now stands up and walks in front of me, and Mother Mary is on my left walking besides me.  We walk only a few steps and Jesus turns around facing me.  He doesn’t say a word, but I am enlightened and know that the Holy Spirit who will fill me completely, once I am empty, will do everything – I need do nothing!  What is there to fear?  I need only get out of His way!”  I understood after this that during my meditation class I was very comfortable being a little girl in the arms of Our Lord, but I feared having to be like Him – walking in His sandals!

I do not belong of the earth,

I belong to Heaven.

In order for me to get to Heaven,

I must spend my time on earth,

Acting as though I belong to Heaven!

Meditation on the Presentation of Jesus in the Temple:

I go together with Mary and Joseph and the Infant Jesus to the Temple.  My eyes cannot go away from Him who is my life and my all.  Mary presents Him to the Priest, Simeon.  I look at Him in Simeon’s arms and oh, how I wish He were in my arms, but lo – I am to sinful and wretched to dare touch Him!  I therefore, stare in awe at His beautiful and adorable face and contemplate with what Love He loves us all.  Oh my sweet Mother, how sorrowful is your heart to hear Simeon say, “and your heart too will be pierced!”  At that moment you saw how many sins caused your heart and the Divine Heart of Jesus to be pierced.  Forgive me – forgive us all!

Divine Lives

 DIVINE LIVES

March 19, 1924, Vol. 16
The Light of the Divine Will is the passport in order to penetrate everything and everyone – Heaven and earth, and to multiply many Lives of Jesus, for as many existing creatures, and for as many acts as they do.

I was fusing myself in the immense sea of the Divine Will, and my sweet Jesus came out from within my interior in the act of blessing me. Then, after He blessed me, He surrounded my neck with His arms and said to me: "My daughter, I bless your heart, your heartbeats, your affections, your words, your thoughts, and even your tiniest movement, so that through my blessing, all of them may be invested by a divine virtue; in such a way that, in entering my Will, they may bring this divine virtue with them, by virtue of my blessing, and may have the power to diffuse in all, to give themselves to all, and to multiply Me for each one, in order to give Me love and glory, as if all had my Life within them. Therefore, enter into my Will, penetrate between Heaven and earth, go through everyone…

My Will is most pure light, and this light contains All-seeingness – the passport in order to enter the most intimate hiding places, the most secret fibers, the abyss of depths and the space of the highest heights. This passport does not need a signature to be valid, but it contains this power within itself, because, being light which descends from on high, no one can hinder its step and entrance. And then, it is King of all and it has dominion everywhere.

Therefore, place your thoughts, your words, your heartbeats, your pains - all of your being, in circulation within my Will. Leave nothing within yourself, so that, by the passport of the Light of my Will and by my divine virtue, you may enter every act of creature and you may multiply my Life in each one of them. Oh, how happy I will be in seeing that the creature, by virtue of my Will, fills Heaven and earth with as many Lives of Mine for as many existing creatures!"

So I abandoned myself in the Supreme Volition, and going around within It, I made my thoughts, my words, my reparations, etc., flow in each created intelligence and in all the rest of human works; and as I did my acts, Jesus was formed. Oh, how beautiful and enchanting it was to see many Jesuses, everywhere the passport of the Light of the Eternal Will passed!

Then I found myself inside myself, and I found Jesus who was clinging to my neck, and squeezing all of me, it seemed that He was making feast, as if I were the cause of the multiplication of His Life, to give Him the honor and the glory of as many Divine Lives.

So I said to Him: ‘My Love, it does not seem real to me that I could multiply your Life, to give you the great honor of as many Divine Lives. And then, You are everywhere, therefore it is by virtue of Yourself that this Life arises in every act, and not because of me. I remain always the little child who is good at nothing.’

And Jesus: "My daughter, what you say is true. I am everywhere, but it is my Power, Immensity and All-seeingness that allows Me to be everywhere; it is not the love and the action of the creature in my Will to make Me be everywhere and to multiply Me. But when the soul enters my Will, it is her love - it is her acts that, being filled with divine virtue, make my Life arise, according to how her acts are more or less extended and done. And this is the reason for my feast in seeing that the creature takes of my own and gives Me my Love, my Glory and even my very Life. My contentment is so great that the creature cannot comprehend it while she lives in exile, but she will comprehend it in the Celestial Fatherland, when she sees herself repaid with as many Divine Lives for as many as she formed upon earth."

May 24, 1927
Offering of one’s work in the Divine Will.  One who lives in It forms many acts of Divine Lives, and possesses the bilocating virtue.

I was doing the offering of my work, saying:  “Jesus, my Love, I want Your hands in mine, in order to give to our Celestial Father that love and that glory which You, individually, gave Him with Your works while being on earth.  Not only this, but I want to unite myself with You when You, Word of the Father, even from eternity operated together with Him with His very works, loving with reciprocal love and with perfect equality; and I want to glorify You with that same glory with which You glorified Yourselves among the Three Divine Persons.  

“But I am not content; I want to place my hands in Yours in order to flow together with Your hands, in Your own Will, within the sun, to give You the glory of the light, of the heat, of the fecundity of the sun; in the sea, to give You the glory of its waves, of its continuous murmuring; in the air, to give You the glory of the singing of the birds; in the azure heavens, to give You the glory of their immensity.  And in the twinkling of the stars, in their flickering, I make my voice flow, saying to You:  ‘I love You.’  I want to flow in the flowery fields, to give You the glory and the adoration of their fragrances.  There is not one point in which I do not want to be present, so that everywhere You may feel Your little daughter, adoring You, loving You and glorifying You.”

Then, while I was saying this and other things, my sweet Jesus moved in my interior and told me:  “My daughter, I feel in you My Glory, My Love, My Life, My works; My Will centralizes everything in you.  Not only this, but while you work, My Will takes you into the sun, and you work together with its light; so, your movements flow in the solar rays, and as the light diffuses, you diffuse glory and love for your Creator.  How beautiful is My daughter—finding her in all of My works, working to give Me the love, the glory that each one of My works contains.  Since My Will possesses the bilocating virtue, It also bilocates you, so as to be able to find you in the sea, in the air, in the stars—everywhere, to love you, and to be loved and glorified.”

After this, I was feeling as though absorbed in the Supreme Fiat, and I was thinking to myself about the great goods that the Supreme Will can do in our souls; and my always lovable Jesus added:  “My daughter, each act that the Divine Will does united with the soul, forms a Divine Life.  In fact, My Will being Divine, It cannot help forming Divine Lives in Its acts; in such a way that, wherever It reigns, as the soul operates, speaks, thinks, palpitates, etc., My Divine Volition makes Its work, Its word, Its thought and heartbeat flow within that of the creature—first forming in her Its act, Its word, and then giving the birth of Its Divine Life.  

“So, in everything the soul does, she releases from herself so many Divine Lives as to fill Heaven and earth with as many images of Divine Life; she becomes the reproducer, the bilocator of the Divine Life.  My Will is not less powerful in the soul in whom It reigns with the fullness of Its dominion, than It is within the womb of the Three Divine Persons.  

“And therefore, possessing the bilocating virtue, It not only forms in the soul as many Divine Lives as It wants, but It forms in her Its heaven, Its sun, seas of love, flowery fields, and makes the soul say to her God:  ‘Heaven You gave me, and heaven I give You; sun You gave me, and sun I give You; seas and flowery fields You gave me, and seas and flowery fields I give You.  Your Will repeats in me everything You have done for me in Creation and Redemption, so that I may give You everything, just as You gave me everything.’

“Oh! power of My Will—what can It not do in the soul in whom It reigns!  Therefore, wherever It reigns, It delights in placing the soul at Our level; more so, since It knows that that is Our Will—wanting the creature to be similar to Our Image.  And Our Will, Our faithful executor, renders her such, and We call this creature in whom Our Supreme Fiat reigns:  Our glory, Our love, Our life.  Only with Our Will can the soul reach such extent; without It, there is great distance between Creator and creature.  

“This is why I love so much that the Divine Volition reign in the creature—to give to Our Will extensive field of action in order to bilocate Our works, Our Life, and to raise the creature to the perfect purpose for which she was created.  The creature came out of Our Volition, and it is justice that she walk in the steps of Our Will and that she return to her Creator on that same path from which she came—all beautiful and enriched by the prodigies of Our Eternal Fiat.”

May 21, 1913 How the true consummation is formed. 

As I was in my usual state, my always lovable Jesus told me: “My daughter, I want the true consummation in you - not imaginary, but true; though in a simple and feasible way. Suppose that a thought came to you which is not for Me; you must destroy it and substitute it with the divine. In this way you will have formed the consummation of the human thought and acquired the life of the divine thought. In the same way, if the eye wants to look at something that displeases Me or does not refer to Me, and the soul mortifies herself, she has consumed the human eye, and acquired the eye of the divine life; and so with the rest of your being. Oh, how I feel these new divine lives flowing in Me, taking part in everything I do! I love these lives so much that I surrender everything for love of them. These souls are first before Me; and if I bless them, through them others are blessed. They are the first to be benefited and loved; and through them, others too are benefited and loved.”

Sept. 28, 1927:
Then, I continued my abandonment in the Divine Fiat, and my sweet Jesus added: “My daughter, my Divine Will was given from the very beginning of Creation as life of the creatures, and It took on the commitment to maintain this life in them whole, beautiful, in its full vigor, administering, in each act of creature, a divine act of Its own – an act of the height of Its sanctity, of Its light, of Its power and beauty. It would place Itself in waiting – waiting for their act in order to give Its own, in such a way as to make in it a portent of divine life worthy of Its power and wisdom. In order to comprehend this, it is enough to say that my Divine Volition was to form as many Lives of Itself in each creature, and therefore It would place the whole of Its ability and the infinite qualities It possessed in the exercise of working. How beautiful these divine lives in the creatures would have been. In looking at them, We were to find in them Our reflection, Our image, the echo of Our happiness. What joy, what feast Creation would have been for Us and for the creatures! Now, you must know that one who does not do my Divine Will and does not live in It, wants to destroy his own divine life within himself, which he was to possess. To destroy one’s own life – what crime! Who would not condemn one who wanted to destroy his own corporal life, or one who did not want to take food, reducing himself to being emaciated, infirm, incapable of anything? Now, one who does not do my Will destroys his life which the divine goodness wants to give him; and one who does my Will, but not always, and does not live in It, because he lacks continuous and sufficient food, is the poor ill one, without strength, emaciated, incapable of doing true good; and if it seems that he does something, it is without life, strained, because my Will alone can give it life. What crime, my daughter, what crime, which deserves no pity.” 

My lovable Jesus showed Himself very tired and as though restless, so great was His sorrow for so many lives destroyed in the creatures. I felt pain because of it, and I said to Jesus: ‘My Love, tell Me, what troubles you? You suffer very much, the destruction of these divine lives of your adorable Will is your greatest sorrow; therefore I pray You – let Its Kingdom come, so that this, your sorrow, may turn into joy, and so Creation will no longer give You restlessness and sorrow, but rest and happiness.’ And seeing that with my speaking I could not get to calming Him, I called to my help all the acts of His Will done in Creation, and emitting my own, I surrounded Jesus with the acts of His Will. An immense light formed around Jesus, and that light eclipsed all the evils of creatures, and He could take rest. 

Then He added: “My daughter, my Will alone can give Me rest. If You want to calm Me when you see Me restless, lend yourself to the carrying out of the life of my Will in you, and as you make all Its acts your own, I will find in you Its light, Its sanctity, Its infinite joys giving Me rest, and I will take a little break from chastising the creatures who, because of these divine lives which they destroy within themselves, so much deserve that I destroy all natural goods and even their very lives. Don’t you see how the sea goes out of its shore and advances to snatch these lives into its bosom and bury them in it? The wind, the earth, almost all the elements advance to make a snatch at creatures and destroy them.
