I AM WHO AM
“The
fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge;
Fools
despise wisdom and instruction.” Prov. 1:7
Our Lord to St. Catherine of Siena: “Do you know, my daughter, who you are and
who I am? If you have this two-fold
knowledge you will be happy. You are she who is not, I am He who is. If you keep this truth in your heart, never
will the enemy be able to deceive you.
You will escape his snares. Never
will you consent to commit an act which is against My Commandments, and you
will readily acquire all grace, all truth, all clarity.”
Ven. Conchita de Armida (Diary, August
8, 1896): “…I can but
lower myself into the bottomless abyss of my nothingness. I close my eyes, I believe, and I
adore...! I believe there is no better
lesson of humility than this. How can
anyone believe, before God and in the presence of such grandeur, that he is
something of grandeur, miserable atom that he is? How can he think he is something good in
comparison with this goodness without limits?
How can he declare himself perfect in the presence of such a light on
these infinite perfections. How can he
esteem himself pure, in the face of this eternal Truth? Oh what fools we are, we others, poor beings
of this world, when we believe we are something or consider ourselves capable
of the least thing! In truth, after I
touched God and had an imperfect notion of His Being, I wanted to prostrate
myself, my forehead and my heart in the dust and never get up again!”
Ven. Conchita de Armida (I AM, Eucharistic Meditations on the Gospel):
“I am Who am,” and nobody can understand all the meaning within
these sublime, divine words that could only be pronounced by God Himself.
“I Am Who am,” that
is, I am the One Who is eternally infinite, the One Who has no beginning, the
One Who will have no end; the Almighty, Immense, Uncreated, God of love. Who is holy by essence, the Creator of all
that exists or can exist, the wholly Unique One, the Sovereign Who created
everything for Himself, the God of Kindness,
Who possesses Himself and
gives Himself without measure. He Who
is! More cannot be said.
Conchita: “He is
everything, I am nothing. He is eternal
in His perfections, I am limited. He is
merciful, I am in misery. He humbled
Himself for my love; I am proud, hard, insensitive to so much tenderness.”
Excerpts from the Book of Heaven:
Volume 1
You must be like an infant in swaddling
bands who, unable to move by himself, even to walk or move a hand, must rely on
its mother for everything. In that way,
I want you to remain near Me—like an infant—to always ask for my help and assistance, acknowledging your
nothingness and expecting everything from Me.”
With this type of talk I became little,
and I annihilated myself to the point that I sometimes felt my whole being
dissolved and dismembered—incapable of taking a step or a breath without the
sustenance and assistance of Jesus. I
therefore tried my utmost to satisfy Him in everything by becoming humble and
obedient.
Volume 1
He gave me other new insights regarding
self—annihilation saying, "You are
not, and should not consider yourself more than a shadow that quickly passes by
and eludes you as you try to catch it.
If, therefore, you want to see something in yourself that is worthy of
Me, consider yourself nothing; and I, pleased with your true debasement,
will pour my All into you." Saying this, my good Jesus impressed on my
mind and heart a self—annihilation of such magnitude, that I wanted to hide
myself in the deepest abyss. Knowing how
impossible it was for me to hide my shame from Him as I continued the
destruction of my self-esteem, He would say, "Get closer to Me, lean on my
arm. I will support you and give you
strength to always work for Me and do all for Me."
Volume 1
Luisa: Have You forgotten that I am
wicked and that without You I can do no good?
And Jesus sweetly and calmly answered; “I do this so you will understand what you
are without Me. Do not despair. I am doing this to you for your greater good,
to prepare your heart to receive the new graces I shall bestow upon you. Until this time I have helped you visibly;
but now, invisibly, I will make you feel
your nothingness with your own hand. I
will cause you to sink into the most profound humility; and I will endow you
with my graces—the best ones—to prepare you for the high levels to which I want
to raise you. So instead of despairing,
be joyful with Me and thank Me, because the quicker you traverse this stormy
sea, the quicker you will reach the harbor of salvation. The severer the tests I will subject you to,
the greater the graces I will bestow upon you.
Have courage, therefore, for soon I shall come to console you in your
sorrow.”
Volume 2, May 26, 1899
“Contempt of yourself is praiseworthy when it is well invested by the
spirit of Faith; but when it is not invested by the spirit of Faith, instead of
doing you good, it can harm you. In fact, in seeing yourself as you are, unable
to do anything good, you will be discouraged, disheartened, without daring to
take one step on the path of good. But by leaning on Me – that is, by investing
yourself with the spirit of Faith – you will come to know and despise yourself,
and at the same time, to know Me, confident of being able to do anything with
my help. And here is how, by acting in this way, you will walk according to the
truth.”
Luisa:
“How much good these words of Jesus did to my soul! I comprehended that I must enter into my nothingness and know who I am,
but I must not stop there. Rather, immediately after I have known myself, I
must fly into the immense sea of God, and stay there, to draw all the graces
that my soul needs; otherwise, my nature remains weakened and the devil will
look for means in order to cast it into discouragement.”
Volume 2, June 2, 1899
This morning my sweetest Jesus wanted
to make me touch my nothingness with my own hands. In the act of showing Himself, the first
words that He directed to me were, "Who am I and who are you?" In these words I saw two immense lights. One contained God, and in the other I saw my
misery, my nothingness. I saw myself to
be nothing but a shadow as that shadow projected by whatever object illuminated
by the sun, shadow that ceases to exist when the sun passes to other points.
Thus my shadow, thus my being, depends
upon the mystical sun, God, Who in a mere instant can dissolve this shadow that
the Lord has given me, it not even being mine.
It causes horror to think of it.
Smelly, putrid and all wormy, yet in this so horrid state I was
constrained to be together with a God so Holy.
Oh, how I would have been content if it were given to me to hide myself
in the darkest abysses!
After this, Jesus said to me, "The greatest favor that I can do
for a soul is to make it know itself.
The knowledge of self and the knowledge of God go hand in hand. For as much as you shall know yourself, this
much shall you know God. The
soul that has known itself, seeing that by itself it can work nothing of good,
transforms the shadow of its being into God and it happens that in God it does
all its operations. Then it happens that
the soul is in God and walks with Him, without looking, without investigation,
without speaking. In a word, it is as if
it were dead, for, knowing in depth its
nothingness, it does not dare to do anything by itself but it blindly follows
the influences of the operations of the Word. It seems to me that to the soul that knows
itself, it happens as to those persons who go by train. Who, while they pass from one point to
another, without taking one step by themselves, make long trips, but all in
virtue of the train that transports them.
Thus the soul, placing itself in God, as the persons on the train, makes
sublime flights in the way of perfection, knowing fully that it is not of
itself but in virtue of that blessed God Who carries it in Himself. Oh,
how the Lord favors, enriches and concedes the greatest graces to that soul
that attributes all, not to itself, but to God!"
Volume 2, 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. Now, while I was doing this, unleashing another ray of light, Jesus made
me understand my nothingness. Ah! I
seemed to be like a grain of sand in the middle of a most extensive sea, which
is God; and this little grain went to disperse itself inside that immense sea –
but it was lost in God. Then He transported me outside of myself, carrying
me in His arms, and kept whispering to me various acts of contrition for my
sins. I only remember that I have been an abyss of iniquities. Lord, oh, how
many awful ingratitude I have had toward You!
Volume 3, January 31, 1900
Jesus:
“What is the passport to enter into the kingdom of grace? It is
humility. Through humility, by always
looking at her nothingness and seeing that she is nothing but dust or wind, the
soul will place all her trust in grace, so much so, as to make of it her
master. And grace, taking dominion over all of the soul, leads her along
the path of all virtues, and makes her reach the summit of perfection.”
Luisa: What would a soul without grace be like? It
seemed to me that she would be like the body without the soul, which becomes
stinking and spews worms and rot from all parts, so much so, as to become an
object of horror to the human sight itself. In the same way, without grace, the
soul becomes so abominable as to be horrifying to the sight – not of men, but
of God Trice Holy. Ah, Lord, free me from such misfortune, and from the
abominable monster of sin!
Volume 3, February 5, 1900
“My
daughter, sometimes the soul feels an encounter in some virtue, and plucking up
her strength, the soul overcomes that encounter; and then, that virtue becomes
more resplendent and rooted in the soul. However, the soul must be very
attentive in order to avoid that she herself might provide the little rope to
let herself be bound by lack of confidence; and she will do this by always restricting herself within the circle of
truth, without ever leaving it, which is the knowledge of her nothingness.”
Volume 3, May 20, 1900
“My daughter, all things have their origin from nothing. If this very machine of
the universe which you are admiring with its great order had been full of other
things before I created it, I could not have put my creative hand to make it
with such great mastery and to render it so splendid and adorned. At the most,
I could have undone everything that might have been there, to then redo it
according to my liking. But we always come to this: all of my works have their
origin from nothing, and when there is a mixing with other things, it is not
decorous for my majesty to descend and operate in the soul. But when the soul reduces herself to nothing
and rises to Me, and takes her being within Mine, then I operate as the God
that I am, and the soul finds true rest. And here is how all virtues, from
humility to the annihilation of oneself, begin.”
Volume 3, June 20, 1900
“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.”
Volume 3, June 27, 1900
“My daughter, what I want from you is that you no longer recognize yourself in yourself,
but that you recognize yourself only in Me. So you will no longer remember
yourself, nor will you ever again have recognition of yourself, but you will
remember Me, and un-recognizing yourself, you will acquire the recognition of
Me alone. According to how much you will
forget and destroy yourself, so will you advance in the knowledge of Me and
will recognize yourself only in Me. Once you have done all this, you will
no longer think with your mind, but with mine; you will not look with your
eyes, you will no longer speak with your mouth, nor will you palpitate with
your heart, work with your hands, or walk with your feet, but will do
everything with mine. In fact, in order
to recognize herself only in God, the soul needs to go to her origin and to
return to her beginning – God, from whom she came - and to conform all of
herself to her Creator. And anything which she keeps of herself and which
is not conformed to her beginning, she must undo and reduce to nothing. Only in
this way, naked, undone, can she return to her origin, recognize herself only
in God, and operate according to the purpose for which she was created. This is
why in order to conform to Me completely, the soul must render herself
indivisible with Me.”
Volume 3, August 3, 1900
“My
daughter, why do you look for Me outside of yourself, while you could find Me
more easily within yourself? When you
want to find Me, enter into yourself, go deep into your ‘nothing’, and there,
without yourself, in the most tiny circle of your ‘nothing’, you will see the
foundations that the Divine Being laid within you, as well as the factories It
raised in you. Look and see.”
I looked again and I saw solid
foundations and very high walls that reached up to the heavens; but that which
stupefied me was to see that the Lord had done this beautiful work upon my
nothing, and the walls were all walled up, with no openings. One could see only
one opening in the vault, which corresponded only to Heaven, and in this
opening dwelled Our Lord, upon a stable column that rose out of the
foundations, formed over nothing. Now, while I was looking, all stupefied,
blessed Jesus added: “The foundations
formed over nothing mean that the Divine Hand operates there where there is
nothing, and It never mixes Its works with material works. The walls
without openings around mean that the soul must have no correspondence with
earthly things, in such a way that there may be no danger that even a little
bit of dust may enter, because everything is walled up well. The only
correspondence that these walls allow is with Heaven – that is, from nothing to Heaven, from Heaven to
nothing; and this is the meaning of the opening made in the vault. The
stability of the column means that the soul is so stable in good that there is
no contrary wind that can move her. And my dwelling upon it is the sure sign
that the work done is fully divine.”
Volume 4, November 11, 1900
“Ah, my daughter, do not go out of my
Will, because by going out of my Will,
you come to lose the knowledge of Me, and not knowing Me, you come to lose the
knowledge of yourself. In fact, only in the reflections of the light can
one distinguish with clarity whether there is gold or mud; if everything is darkness
objects can easily be confused. Now, the
light is my Will, which gives you the knowledge of Me, and in the reflections
of this light you come to know who you are; and in seeing your weakness, your
pure nothingness, you cling to my arms and, united with my Will, you live
with Me in Heaven. But if you want to go out of my Will, first you would come
to lose true humility, and then you would come to live on the earth and would
be forced to feel the earthly weight, to moan and sigh like all the other unfortunate
who live outside of my Will.”
Volume 4, December 24, 1902
“My daughter, one who believes himself to be something
before Me and before men, is worth nothing.
One who believes himself to be nothing is worth everything – first,
before Me, because if he does something, he does not think he does it because
he can do it, having the strength and the capacity, but rather, because he
receives from God the grace, the helps and the lights; therefore it can be said
that he does it by virtue of divine power, and one who has divine power with
him is already worth everything. Second, before men, because this acting by
virtue of divine power makes him operate in a completely different way, and he
does nothing but send forth the light of the divine power he contains within
himself, in such a way that the most perverted ones, without wanting it, feel
the strength of this light and submit to his volition; and here is how he is
worth everything also before men. On the contrary, one who believes himself to
be something, in addition to being worth nothing, is abominable to my presence,
and because of his ostentatious and particular manners - for he believes he is
something and makes fun of others - men keep him pointed out as an object of
derision and of persecution.”
Volume
8, November 18, 1907
Luisa:
‘My sweet life, how bad I have become – I feel I am reduced to nothing. I no longer feel anything in me,
everything is empty; I just feel an enchantment in my interior, and in this
enchantment I wait for You, so that You may fill me. But in vain do I wait for
this filling; on the contrary, I feel I always return to nothing.’ And Jesus: “Ah,
my daughter! And you afflict yourself
for you feel reduced to nothing? Rather, I say to you: the more the creature is
reduced to nothing, the more she is filled with the All. And if she left even
one shadow of herself, that shadow would prevent Me from giving all of Myself,
completely, to the soul. Your constant returning to nothing means that you are
dissolving your human being to reacquire the Divine.”
Volume 9, December 22, 1909
I felt my very nature being consumed and melted into
nothingness. Those seeds of strength, of light, of knowledge which I seemed to
feel – everything turned into nothing. I felt I was dying; yet, I live. In the meantime He came
back, and taking me in his arms, He seemed to sustain this nothingness of mine,
telling me: “Do you see, my daughter, how, as the little seed of your
strength, the little lamp of your light, the little knowledge of Me that you
have, and all of your other little qualities dissolve, my strength, my light,
my wisdom, my beauty and all of my other qualities take over and fill this
nothingness of yours? Aren’t you happy?”
Volume 11, Good morning to Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, may our will be one; one
our love, one our contentment. Never
leave me alone, for I am a nothing, and the nothing cannot be without the
All.
Volume 11, 4th July, 1912
“My daughter, what is the matter? Do you
want to waste time? Do you want to go out of your nothingness? Stay in your place - in your nothingness -
so that the All may keep Its place in you. Know, however, that you must die
completely in my Will: to suffering, to virtues - to everything. My Will must
be the tomb of the soul; and just as
in the tomb one’s nature is consumed to the point of disappearing completely,
and through that very consummation it will rise again to new and more beautiful
life - in the same way, the soul, buried in my Will as though inside a tomb,
will die to suffering, to her virtues, to her spiritual goods, and will rise
again in everything to Divine Life.”
Volume 12, June 14, 1917
“My daughter, the more the soul strips herself of herself,
the more I clothe her with Myself. The more she believes she can do nothing,
the more I act in her, and I do everything. I feel all my love, my prayers,
my reparations, etc. being placed in act by the creature; and to give honor to
Myself, I listen to what she wants to do. Love? I go to her and love together
with her. Does she want to pray? I pray together with her. In sum, her
stripping and her love, which is mine, bind Me and force Me to do with her
whatever she wants to do. And I give to the soul the merit of my love, of my
prayers and reparations; and to my highest contentment, I feel my Life being
repeated, and I make the effects of my operating descend for the good of all, because it is not of the creature, who is
hidden in Me - but it is mine.”
Volume 12, December 6, 1917
“So,
how could other things, outside of my Will, ever please Me, as beautiful as
they might be? They are always low, human and finite acts. Instead, the acts in
my Will are noble, divine, without end, infinite - as it is my Volition. They
are similar to mine, and I give them the same value, love and power of my own
acts; I multiply them in everyone; I extend them to all generations, to all
times. What do I care if they are small? They are always my acts being
repeated, and that’s enough. And then,
the soul places herself in her true nothingness - not in humility, in which she
always feels something of herself. And, as a nothing, she enters into the All,
and she operates with Me, in Me and like Me - completely stripped of herself,
not caring about merit or self-interest, but all intent only on making Me
content, giving Me absolute lordship over her acts, without even wanting to
know what I do with them. Only one thought occupies her: to live in my
Will, praying Me to give her the honor. This is why I love her so much, and all
my predilections, my love, are for this soul who lives in my Will. And if I
love others, it is by virtue of the love which I have for this soul, and which
descends from her - just as the Father loves the creatures by virtue of the
love He has for Me.”
Volume 12, December 26, 1919
“…And
besides, what do the Sacraments do if not unite the soul with God? What is to
do my Will? Isn’t it perhaps to unite the will of the creature with her
Creator? To dissolve oneself in the
Eternal Volition - the ‘nothing’ ascending to the ‘All’, and the ‘All’
descending into the ‘nothing’. It is the noblest, the most divine, the purest,
the most beautiful, the most heroic act that the creature can do.
Volume 14, March 3, 1922
“My
daughter, now it is appropriate that I set to work again, to work the soil of
your soul, so as to be able to sow the seed of my word in order to nourish you.
I act like a farmer when he wants to sow in his field: he forms little
trenches, makes some furrows, and then sows in them the seeds, and again he
covers with earth the little trenches and the furrows in which he has sown the
seeds, so as to keep them sheltered and give them the time to germinate, to
then harvest them increased a hundredfold, to make of them his food. But he is
careful not to put too much earth over them, otherwise he would suffocate his
seeds and would make them die under the earth, and he would run the risk of
remaining on an empty stomach. Now, so I do: I prepare the little trenches, I
form the furrows, I enlarge the capacity
of her intelligence to be able to sow my divine word, and therefore form the
food for Me and for her; then I cover the little trenches and the furrows with
earth - which is humility, nothingness, the annihilation of the soul, some
little weakness or misery of hers. This is earth, and it is necessary that
I take it from her because I lack this earth; and so I cover everything and I
wait with joy for my harvest. Now, do
you want to know when too much earth is placed over my seed? When the soul feels her miseries, her
weaknesses, her nothingness, and she afflicts herself. She thinks about it so
much as to waste time; and the enemy uses this in order to cast her into
disturbance, discouragement and despondency. This is all earth in excess
over my seed. Oh! how my seed feels itself dying – how it struggles to
germinate under this earth. Many times these souls tire the Celestial Farmer,
and He withdraws. Oh! how many are the souls such as these.”
Volume 16, November 10, 1923
“My
dear little one, I have chosen you little, because the little ones let one do
with them whatever he wants. They do not walk by themselves, but let themselves
be guided; even more, they are afraid to place one foot on their own. If they
receive gifts, feeling incapable of keeping them, they place them on the lap of
their mama. The little ones are stripped of everything, nor do they care about
whether they are rich or poor; they are concerned with nothing. Oh! how
beautiful the tender age is - full of grace, of beauty and of freshness. Therefore,
the greater is the work I want to do in a soul, the littler I choose her. I
like childlike freshness and beauty very much; I like it so much that I preserve these souls in the littleness of the
nothingness from which they came. I let nothing of their own enter into them,
so as not to let them lose their littleness, and therefore preserve the divine
freshness and beauty from which they came.”
Volume 19, April 16, 1926
“My
daughter, everything you experienced – your full abandonment in the arms of our
Celestial Father, no longer feeling your own life – is the image of the living
in my Will. In fact, in order to live in It, the creature must live more of God
than of herself; even more, ‘the nothing’ must give life to ‘the All’, to be
able to do everything, and to have her act at the top of all the other acts of
each creature. Such was the life of my Divine Mama. She was the true image
of the living in my Will. Her living in It was so perfect, that She did nothing
but receive from God, continuously, all that She was to do in order to live in
the Supreme Volition. So, She received the act of supreme adoration, to be able
to place Herself at the top of every adoration which all creatures were obliged
to do for their Creator. In fact, true adoration has life within the Three
Divine Persons. Our perfect concord, Our reciprocal love, Our one Will, form
the most profound and perfect adoration within the Sacrosanct Trinity. Therefore, if the creature adores Me, but
her will is not in accord with Me, it is vain word – not adoration.”
Volume 20, May 8, 1930
“My
daughter, one then feels the true life in herself, when she enters in my Divine
Will, because in Him the creature sees
with clarity her nothing(ness) and how this nothing feels the need of the All,
that is of He who drew her from the nothing in order to live; and as she
recognizes herself, the All fills her with himself. This nothing feels the true
life, she finds in him the immediate contact of sanctity, of goodness,
power, love and divine wisdom; she recognizes in herself the power of the
creative work, his palpating life and the extreme need of this divine life,
otherwise she feels as if in herself there might not be life. It is only my Will that makes her true
nothing(ness) recognized by the creature and [my Will] goes continually
blowing on this nothing in order to maintain the divine life always inflamed in
her, in order to make her grow as a worthy work of our creative hands. Instead
without our Will the creature feels as if she might be something and the All
remains outside of the nothing.”
Volume 19, May 27, 1926
“My daughter, feeling your nothingness more does not oppose the
living in my Will; on the contrary, it is a duty of yours. All of my works are
formed over nothing, and this is why the All can do what He wants. If the
sun had reason, and someone asked it: ‘What good do you do? What are your
effects? How much light and heat do you contain?’; it would answer: ‘I do
nothing, I just know that the light given to me by God is invested with the
Supreme Will, and I do whatever It wants. I extend wherever It wants, and I
produce the effects It wants; and while I do so much, I remain always nothing
and the Divine Will does everything in me.’ The same for all my other works -
all their glory is to remain in their nothingness in order to give the whole
field to my Will, to let It operate. Only man wanted to do without the Will of
his Creator, he wanted to make his nothingness operate, believing himself to be
good at something; and the All, feeling Himself placed after the nothing, went
out of man, who reduced himself from superior to all, to inferior to all. Therefore, let your nothingness be always
at the mercy of my Will, if you want the unity of Its light to operate in you
and call the purpose of Creation back to new life.”
Volume 19, June 15, 1926
…I
felt full of defects and totally bad; therefore, as blessed Jesus came, I told
Him: ‘Jesus, my life, have pity on me – look at how full of defects I am, and
how much badness there is in me.’ And He, all goodness and tenderness, told me:
“My daughter, do not fear, I am here, watching over you and keeping your
soul in custody, so that not even the slightest sin may enter into your soul.
And where you or others see defects and badness, I find none; rather, I see that your ‘nothing’ feels the
weight of the ‘All’. In fact, the more I elevate you intimately to Me and I
make known to you what the ‘All’ wants to do with your ‘nothing’, the more you
feel your nothingness and, almost frightened and crushed under the All, you
would want escape from manifesting and, even more, from writing on paper that
which the ‘All’ wants to make of this ‘nothing’ of yours. More so since, as
much reluctance as you feel, I always win and make you do what I want. This
happened also to my Celestial Mama, when She was told: ‘I hail You, Mary, full
of grace; You will conceive the Son of God.’ On hearing this, She was
frightened, She trembled, and said: ‘How can this happen?’ But She ended up
saying: ‘Fiat Mihi secundum verbum tuum.’ She
felt all the weight of the All over Her nothing and, naturally, She was
frightened. So, when I manifest to you what I want to do with you, and your
nothing is frightened, I see the fright of the Sovereign Queen being repeated;
and compassionating you, I lift your nothing, I strengthen it, that it may
endure sustaining the All. Therefore, do not be concerned about this, but
rather, think of letting the All operate in you.”
Volume 20 January 25, 1927
“How beautiful is the Kingdom of my Will – the nothing
dissolved in the All, and the All fused in the nothing; the lowliness of the
creature rising into the Divine height, and the Divine height descending into
the depth of the creature. They are two beings bound together, inseparable,
transfused, identified, such that it can barely be recognized that they are two
lives palpitating together. All the magnificence, the sanctity, the sublimeness, the
prodigies of the Kingdom of my Will, will be exactly this: the faithful copy of
the soul in God, and the copy of God, whole and beautiful, in the soul.
Therefore, the children of the Kingdom
of the Divine Fiat will be as many images of little Gods in my Kingdom.”
