Sorry, I've hit a rough patch in life, I'll try to get back soon.

The Bank of Heaven. The "I love you", the interest.

In continuing my search through the Volumes on references on the "I love you" I found a common thread that speaks about the Bank of Heaven.  Jesus uses the idea of a bank to describe how God made the deposit of his Will in the creature so that the creature might always grow in the attributes of God in what ever way the creature wanted, something which he did not do in all the rest of Creation.

...in creating man.  Our love for him was so great as to surpass all the love We had in Creation.  Therefore We endowed him with reason, memory and will; and placing Our Will within his, as though in a bank, We wanted him to multiply It, to increase It a hundredfold - not for Us, who did not need it, but for his own good, that he might not remain like the other created things, mute and fixed in that point at which We issued them, but he might grow ever more in glory, in riches, in love and in the likeness of his Creator.  And so that he might find all possible imaginable aids, We gave him Our Will at his disposal, that he might achieve, with Our very power, the good, the growth and the likeness of his Creator that he wanted to acquire.

Vol. 19, March 9, 1926



In the whole Creation although God "saw that it was good" (Genesis) he did not find anything new.  Creation is an outpouring of love of God the externalization of that which is within him.  Only in man, with his free will acting in the Divine Will, did God find something new.  It was only when man first returned an "I love you" to God that he found immense pleasure and joy.  He gave man all the capital that his Will contained, all in the hope of receiving man's little "I love you" in return.

“My daughter, for whoever lives in My Will there are no acts of Our’s that cannot be present.  There are no acts of Our’s which we have put forth that cannot be received; so now (I give) to you My Breath, and Our outpouring of love.  How great was Our pleasure in this first act of man’s creation.  We had created Heaven and earth, but We felt nothing new in Ourselves.  Yet in creating man, it was much different.  One was the will which was created - this free will and in it we enclosed Our own (Will), placing It as in a bank to earn interest in the love, glory, and adoration that was due to us.  Oh how love overflowed in us, how we trembled with joy in putting, forth this free will so that we could hear it said to us:  ‘I love you.’  And when man, full of that which was Ours, let burst forth from his breast his first word ‘I love you,’ Our pleasure was immense, because it was as if he returned to Us the interest of all the goods that we had placed in him.  This free will which We created was where We deposited the capital of a Divine Will, and We were satisfied if We could - receive a small interest, without ever again claiming the capital.  So the fall of man was a great sorrow for Us, because he refused Our capital so [that] he would not have to pay the small interest.  His bank was left empty, and since his enemy had made a deal with him, he filled man with passions and miseries - and the poor thing was left a failure.

           “Now, My daughter, the act of man’s creation was a solemn act and gave Us the greatest satisfaction, and so We call and want you in this act to repeat the solemnity of [this] act, putting in your will the great capital which is Ours, and as We do this Our love overflows and trembles with joy to Our greatest pleasure, because We see Our intention realized.  You certainly will not deny giving the small interest, you will not reject Our capital - tell Us you won’t.  Every day We will take reckoning:  I will call you to be present in that prime act when We created this free will so that you can give Me the interest, and I will see if I can add something else to My capital.”

Vol. 21, April 22, 1927



All of the acts done by a creature living in the Divine Will remain there and take on the aspect of the immensity of the Divine Will as well.  So all of Adam's acts done in the Divine Will are still there as pledges for the return of this Kingdom.  Although Luisa feels that her "I love you's" are small Jesus tells her that he takes her small "I love you" and extends it throughout all the heavens so that it becomes even more extensive than the heavens themselves and so on with each act of love be it in the sun or in the wind or the earth.

           I was continuing my round in the Supreme Fiat, and my little mind, arriving at Eden, was saying: ‘Adorable Majesty, I come before You to bring You my small interest of my ‘I love You’, ‘I adore You’, ‘I glorify You’, ‘I thank You’, ‘I bless You’, to give You my small interest because You have given me a heaven, a sun, an air, a sea, a flowery earth, and everything that You have created for me. You once told me that each day you want to do the accounts with me and receive this small interest of mine, so that we may always be in agreement; and keep the whole Creation, given to me by You as little daughter of your Will, safe inside the little bank of my soul.’ But while I was doing this, a thought told me: ‘But, how can you satisfy an interest so great? And besides, how great at all is your ‘I love You’, ‘I adore You’, ‘I thank You’?
           But while I was thinking this, my sweet Jesus moved in my interior and told me: “My daughter, this was an agreement between Me and you – that I would put the whole Creation in the bank of your soul, and you would have to give Me the interest, filling It with your ‘I love You’, ‘I adore You’, ‘I thank You’. And since I saw you hampered because of a capital so great, and fearing that you might want to reject this great gift from Me, in order to encourage you to receive it, I said to you: ‘I am content with a small interest, and we will do the accounts every day here in Eden. In this way we will remain in agreement and always in peace, and you will not be worried that your Jesus has placed in your bank a capital so great.’ And then, don’t you know the value of an ‘I love You’ in my Divine Will? My Will fills the heavens, the sun, the sea, the wind – Its Life extends everywhere; therefore, as you say your ‘I love You’, ‘I adore You’ and everything else you might say, my Fiat extends your ‘I love You’ in the heavens, and your ‘I love You’ becomes more extensive than the heavens; your ‘I adore You’ extends in the sun, and it becomes larger and longer than its light. Your ‘I glorify You’ extends in the wind, and it wanders through the air, throughout the whole earth, and its moans, the blows of the wind, now caressing, now mighty, say: ‘I glorify You’. Your ‘I thank You’ extends within the sea, and the drops of water and the darting of the fish say: ‘I thank You’. And I see the heavens, the stars, the sun, the sea, the wind, filled with your ‘I love You’, with your adorations, and the like; and I say: ‘How content I am that I placed everything in the bank of the little daughter of my Will – because she pays Me the interest wanted by Me. And since she lives in It, she gives Me a divine and equivalent interest, because my Fiat extends her little acts and renders them more extensive than the whole Creation.’ And when I see you coming into Eden to give Me your small interest, I look at you and I see in you my Divine Will doubled – one in you, and the other in Me, while It is one; and I see Myself being paid the interest by my Will Itself – and I remain satisfied, and, oh! how content I am in seeing that my Fiat has given to the creature the virtue of making Itself be doubled, so as to let her satisfy her Creator.
            My daughter, how many unforgettable things there are in this Eden. Here Our Fiat created man, and made such display of love, that It poured Itself in torrents upon him; so much so, that We still feel the sweet murmuring with which We poured Ourselves over him. Here began the Life of Our Fiat in the creature, and the sweet and dear memory of the acts of the first man done in It. These acts exist still now in Our Volition, and are as though pledges for him to be reborn in order to have the Kingdom of Our Fiat again. In this Eden there is the sorrowful memory of the fall of man, the exit he made from Our Kingdom. We still hear his steps when he went out of Our Divine Fiat; and since this Eden had been given to him so that he would live in It, We were forced to put him out, and We had the sorrow of seeing the work dearest to Us without his Kingdom, wandering and sorrowful. Our only relief were the pledges of his acts, which had remained in Our Will; these called for the rights of humanity to enter again the place from which it had gone out. This is why I await you in Eden to receive your small interest, to renew what We did in the Creation, and to receive the return for a love so great, not understood by creatures, and to find a loving pretext to give the Kingdom of Our Divine Will. Therefore, I want this Eden to be dear to you as well, that you may pray Us and press Us that the beginning of Creation, the Life of Our Fiat, may return into the midst of the human family.”

           Then, I was following the acts of the Divine Will, accompanying them with my ‘I love You’; and I could comprehend the great difference in greatness and magnitude of the works of the Divine Fiat and of my little ‘I love You’. Oh! how small I felt, and truly just newly born before that Fiat which can do everything and embraces everything. And my lovable Jesus, clasping me in His arms, told me: “My daughter, one who lives in my Divine Will is my rich bank upon earth; and as you say your ‘I love You’, I invest it with my own, and from small it becomes great, it diffuses in the infinite, in such a way that the riches of my love become immeasurable, and I deposit them in the bank of your soul. And as you continue your acts, I invest them with mine, and I deposit them in your bank so as to have my divine bank upon earth. Therefore, your little acts done in my Divine Volition serve Me in order to give Me something to do, to make Our divine qualities, which are infinite, flow in your little acts, which are finite, mix them together and make of them as many acts of Ours, depositing them in the bank of your soul, so that Our bank may find in you Its Heaven. Don’t you know that one who must live in Our Divine Fiat must be a nimbus of Heaven? Such that, as it lowers itself upon earth - but so much as to eliminate any distance - at that point of the earth where there is the fortunate creature, one must see Heaven, not earth. Nor would my Divine Will be without Its Heaven; It Itself would form It for Itself, and the drapes of Heaven would lower themselves to pay homage to that Fiat from which they recognize their existence. Therefore, all the Blessed remain stupefied in seeing a nimbus of Heaven upon earth; but their stupefaction ceases immediately, when they see that that Divine Will which forms their Heaven and all their happiness is present as reigning in that creature, precisely at that point where they see that the drapes of Heaven, lowering themselves, surround that creature to sing the praises of my Supreme Fiat.
           Therefore, be attentive, my daughter, and if I tell you this, it is to let you know the great gift of making my Will known to you, and how It wants to form Its Kingdom in you, so that you may thank Me and be grateful.”
Vol. 27, Jan. 7, 1930

This transaction puts into commerce anything that the creature wants of God attributes.  These acts go out to the benefit of all and the more she takes the more there remains to take.  The creature feels the continuous act of the Divine and goes repeating it, bilocating it, multiplying it.  This is something that even the Angels and Saints can not do, only a creature living on earth in the Divine Will has this capacity.  So the small interest of the creature becomes a conquering act when done in the Divine Will.  And in conquering God, God conquers the creature.

...you should know that as the creature does her acts in my Divine Will she enters into the divine banks, and there makes her traffics/(transactions) of infinite value, since she comes in our Volition, although she is little, but she comes as mistress and makes herself mistress of that which our divine banks possess, and she takes how much more she can take, and since she can not enclose within herself that which she takes, she leaves them in deposit, together with our own treasures, and we let her do it, we enjoy her traffics/(transactions), and such is our goodness that we give her the interest of the acquisitions that she has made.  So that every time that she does her acts in our Volition, she opens the commerce between Heaven and earth, and puts in traffic our sanctity, power, goodness, love, and we in order not to remain behind our beloved creature, she climbs and we descend into the depths of the human volition, and opening our commerce we make the acquisition of the human volition, traffic so very wanted and pleasant to us, and thus we make competition and we conquer each other.

Vol. 32, Sept. 2, 1933

          “My daughter, one who lives in my Divine Volition feels within herself the continuous and constant act of the divine operating of my Divine Fiat. This continuous act, generated by Its Power in the creature, has such strength, such empire over all, that it captivates all with its sweet enchantment, in such a way that all turn around her – the Angels, the Saints, the Sacrosanct Trinity, the spheres and all Creation. All want to be spectators, to enjoy a scene so sweet, enchanting and beautiful of the continuous act of the creature in the Divine Fiat. She enters into the bank of the Supreme Being, and unifying herself in the continuous act of her Creator, she does nothing but put out, with her continuous act, the innumerable beauties, the sweetest sounds, the insuperable rarities of the qualities of her Creator. And what enraptures the most is to see her littleness that, all daring and courageous, without fearing anything, as if she wanted to lord over her very Creator, to give Him pleasure, to captivate Him to herself, to ask Him for the Kingdom of His Will upon earth, takes and puts out, from within the divine bank, all Our joys and happinesses, as if she wanted to exhaust them. And seeing that she does not exhaust them, she does not tire, she repeats her continuous act, in such a way that all wait for her to finish; and seeing that she does not finish, they press themselves around her, so much so, that she becomes place of center, and all turn around, so as not to lose a scene so consoling and never before seen – that is, the continuous act of the human littleness in the unity of the Supreme Fiat. More so, since the continuous operating is only of God, and as one sees it being repeated by the creature, it causes the greatest surprises and makes Heaven and earth astonished.
           My little daughter, if you knew what a continuous act in my Will means…. This act is incomprehensible to created mind. The creature is the bilocator of Our continuous act, she enters into Our act and makes arise and puts out Our rare Beauty, Our invincible Love, Our Power that can do anything, Our Immensity that embraces everything; and showing them to all, she would like to say to all: ‘Look Who is our Creator.’ And We let her do it, and We enjoy in seeing that the littleness of the creature wants to give Us Our paradise and Our Divine Being, as Ours and as her own. What can one who lives in Our Fiat not do and not give to Us? Anything! More so since, because this happy creature is on earth, by virtue of her free will, she possesses the conquering virtue which not even the Saints in Heaven possess; and with it she can conquer and multiply whatever good she wants. And Our Will, which keeps her within Itself, renders her the conqueror of Our Divine Being.”
Vol. 26, May 4, 1929

Jesus longs for the creature to come into his Will and to do her acts in him.  Without them he can not continue his works, his steps, his speaking.  And even as Jesus feels isolated when the creature does not put forth her transactions so does all the creation, the Angels and Saints and all creatures lack a happiness, an honor,  a new love when the creature does not act in the Divine Will because everyone and everything become enclosed within each act.

“Now, so much is my love for one who lives in my Divine Volition that that which I do, I have to do to her; I give the right to her over my acts as if they might be hers, and I remain with anxiety waiting that she takes my steps in order to have her walk, my hands in order to have her work, my voice in order to have her speak; so much so that if sometimes she omits making use of me, my love reproaches her sweetly and with inexpressible tenderness I say to her: 

            ‘Today you have not had me walk, my steps remained waiting for you in order to walk in you and you have made them stop for me; my works today are suspended because you have not given me the space to work in your hands; I have always been in silence because you have not had me speak in your voice.  You see, also my tears I hold them on my face, because you have not removed them from me in order to make use of them for you, in order to wash yourself, in order to refresh yourself in my love, and even to make of them a bath for who offends me, and still I feel (a) wet face from weeping.  My sufferings are days without the kisses, the sweetenings of one who loves me, and I feel more embittered by them.  Therefore take all of me do not leave anything of me, let me lean/rest my being with all my acts upon you and upon all your acts, and thus I will call you my knoll, my shelter; I will put in you, in the bank of my Will that reigns in you, all that which I did and suffered being on earth, I will multiply it, I will centuplicate it, I will make it continually re-arise to new life, so that you take for yourself that which you want and you will give me to everyone so that everyone knows me and loves me.’

 

             “Indeed you should know that as the creature enters into my Will in order to do her acts she calls the appeal to all created things, to the saints and angels, so that everyone becomes enclosed in that act.  And oh, how beautiful it is to feel in that act that everyone loves me, everyone recognizes me and adores me, everyone does the same thing!  My Will calls everyone, imposes himself over everyone, and everyone remains felicitated, honored to be enclosed in that act done in the Divine Volition, in order to love with new love and with the love of everyone he who loves them so much.” 

Vol. 36, July 24, 1938  

Each time the creature repeats her acts in the Divine Will they are new.  With each act new knowledge is gained and the field of the act repeated grows ever larger making it a new act.  And each act forms a new bond and a new right to receive ever more from God.

“My daughter, every time that you turn you form one of your acts in the act of my Divine Will, so many bonds more you form in Him, remaining confirmed so many times for how many acts you do in the Divine Fiat, and He remains confirmed so many more times in you; and every bond and confirmation that you make, my Will enlarges his seas around you, and for confirmation as seal he puts there one truth of his, one knowledge of his, and he manifests to you one more degree of value that my Will contains, but do you know what they do in your soul these bonds, confirmations, truths, knowledges, greater values that you come to know?  They make the life of my Will grow in you.  Not only, but repeating your acts, will make so many more degrees of values for how many more you have known; your acts become put in the balance of the Divine Value, and they are worth so much for how much you have known and for how much value has been communicated by us in your act, so that your act yesterday, repeating it today, it doesn’t have the same value of yesterday, but [it has] acquired the new value that we have made known.  Hence the repetition of the acts, accompanied by new truths and knowledges, they acquire day-by-day new degrees of infinite value always growing.  We not only put the acts of the creature done in our Will, in our eternal balance in order to re-give them the weight of an infinite value, but we conserve them in our divine bank in order to (re-)give them a hundred fold; therefore every time that you repeat your acts, so many times you come to put your little coins in our divine bank, and hence you acquire so many rights to receive more from us.

“You see therefore where the excess of our love arrives, that we want to make ourselves debtor of the creature receiving the little coins of her acts in our immense bank, that we possess so much of.  And yet we so very love to receive the little coins, in order to give her the right to give her of ours.  Our love at whatever cost wants to have to do with the creature, it wants to be in continuous relationship with her and this by force (of needing) to give, and perhaps also to lose.  How many times while we want to give to her, we want to make her know so many of our beautiful things, we want to make her feel how very sweet and powerful our word is, and she shows herself cold, indifferent, if she doesn’t even turn her back to us.  And our love remains as defeated by human ingratitude; but the little daughter won’t ever do that, isn’t (this) true?  Your littleness makes you feel the extreme need of your Jesus, of his love and of his Will.”

Vol. 30, Feb. 6, 1932

The book of life. The "I love you", the punctuation.

Jesus tells Luisa that all of her "I love you's" are as punctuation to words.  It seems such a small thing to her but he continues to explain about how without punctuation words do not make sense and only with them is there order and true meaning.  But here he continues and states that not only does this provide the order and meaning in our own lives but he unites that punctuation to his own found in all the pages and works of creation and in this union the creature comes to understand these works and just how much God loves her and God receives the exchange of love that he has been waiting for since before time.

 

The page of life.  The creation, Celestial page, the "I love you" punctuation of these pages, the craftsman and the Divine writer.

            I was continuing my usual turning for all the Creation, in order to meet with the Divine Will dominant in It and to reciprocate him with my love for so much love for me, in creating so many things for my love and it seemed to me that every single created thing was in the expectation of receiving the seal of my ‘I love you‘, this was a right, a tribute, a little sign that they demanded from the earth, to that Will that had given so much to all creatures, that formed their actor and conservator; but while I did this, it seemed that my sweet Jesus with his own hands took my ‘I love you’ and put it as a seal to those created things, to which I directed it and putting them aside I awaited that it might follow the work of the ‘I love you’, to all the other created things, and I was amazed in seeing the interest of Jesus, his waiting, I thought to myself:  “but what great thing is my little ‘I love you’, that arrives to form the occupation and the interest of Jesus?”  And He stopping himself in order to speak to me said to me:

 

            “My blessed daughter, do you know what thing is your ‘I love you‘?  It is as the punctuation to the character, a character without punctuation is seen as confusion without just ideas, without expressions formed in a way that one who reads them does not find the true sense, it can have those ideas that she wants, beautiful and ugly as it pleases her.  Hence lacking the punctuation, one can call it a writing without true value and in clear notes it speaks of the ignorance and the little value of whom has written it.  And yet how great is a point, a comma, a question mark and all the rest of the punctuation?  One can say it is nothing in comparison to the work of the extension of a character.  Such is her ‘I love you’ and the punctuation to the character of your life, of your words, works, steps and even of your heart, the punctuation of your ‘I love you’ casts the order in all your acts, it puts forth the just ideas, gives the most beautiful expressions and makes known to you He for who’s love the page and the character of your life becomes formed.  But this is nothing yet, this point, this little comma of your ‘I love you’, rises on high and punctuates our Divine pages, our Celestial characters of all the Creation.  What is all the Creation?  If not but our Divine page put forth by Us and our Celestial characters impressed in the whole page of the Creation punctuated with such order and harmony, with most just ideas, with the most beautiful and moving expressions, made with such value of art that no other craftsman can imitate.  Now your ‘I love you’ unites itself to the Divine punctuation and punctuating it it knows the value of our characters, it learns to read our page, understands with just ideas how much we have done for her love and she receives the most beautiful and moving expression of her Creator and she gives Us the little tribute, she pays Us the little wealth that We with love of justice await from creatures.  Not only, since the ‘I love you’ holds the virtue by nature to convert itself into good.  I with all love take these points and commas of your ‘I love you’ and I put your little light on our Divine punctuation and looking at all the Creation, I feel such straights of love that I see the punctuation of the little daughter of my Volition in our Celestial punctuation.  But tell me my daughter, why do you say to Me ‘I love you’ and want to invest all created things, my own acts, with your ‘I love you’?”

 

            And I:  “because I love you and want to be loved by You.”

 

            And He:  “Therefore because you love Me, you say to Me ‘I love you‘ and is this not the greatest of my contentments, my sighs, my anxieties, my deliriums, to be loved by the creature?  Now know that your ‘I love you’, to your every ‘I love you’, I whisper to the ear of your heart ‘I love you’ and I put my Celestial punctuation to the page and characters of your life, are you not content with it?”

 

            And I:  “My love, it is not enough for me, no, your punctuation alone, I am not content with it, my punctuations alone can be enough for You because being little and good for nothing I don’t know how to do other, but You who know how to do everything, in order to make me content I want that You yourself form for me the page and the characters of my life.” 

And Jesus:  “Yes, yes, I will content you and I could say to you that I am doing it.  Now know that in order to have a page written there is needed the paper, the ink, the pen, all things of material beforehand in order to form a written page, if (there) lacked one of them the writing could not have life.  Now the paper is my Divine Will, which as foundation of everything must form the page of life.  You see, I can say that my Will extended himself as foundations of all the Creation, more than paper in order to receive the distinct characters of ours, of our incessant love, in which we re-pour more than indelible characters our qualities and Divine works, our characters become formed with works and incessant love.  Thus the soul must possess as base of everything, my Divine Will but it is not enough(,) there is needed the incessant love in order to form the ink, in order to write on this paper of light, but paper and ink are not sufficient in order to form the characters, therefore there is needed the pen of holy works, the diversity of sacrifices, the circumstances of life, in order to form the pen and thus write the ordered characters, the most beautiful and moving expressions that now makes one cry, and now fills the heart with joy, in a way that one who can read them, will feel transformed and re-given the life of good that that page possesses and I, Craftsman and Divine Writer, when I find paper, ink and pen, as I formed and I wrote the page of the Creation, thus I occupy myself with my highest delight to form and write the page of this creature, perhaps more beautiful than the same page of the Creation.  Therefore always have ready paper, ink and pen, and I promise you to write the page of your life in which one will see that I alone have been He who have formed and written it and thus you will be content and I (will be) content.”
Vol. 31, Jan. 14, 1933


Jesus finishes this by assuring Luisa that in his Divine Will he forms the page of the creatures life and continue the analogy comparing his Divine Will to the paper, page of light; continuous love forms the ink to write on this paper and the pen that records the words are the holy works done by the creature.  When he has all of these at hand he can form a work more beautiful than the work of Creation.  But it is only by living in the Divine Will that Jesus can develop this book and only by living in the Divine Will that the creature can read the book of His Will in the Creation.



My Will is the book of Creation, therefore Its reigning in the midst of creatures is necessary in order to know how to read it and to be able to read it. The human will keeps poor man as though asleep; he sleeps, and the sleep prevents him from feeling and seeing all the caresses and finesses of love that His Celestial Father gives him, as well as the surprises He wants to make known to him. His sleep prevents him from receiving the joys, the happiness, which His Creator wants to give him, and from comprehending the sublime state of his creation.
           Poor man, asleep to true good, and deaf to listening to my Will which is his revealer, his noble history, his origin, his marvelous height and beauty. And if he is awake, he listens either to sin, to his passions, or to things which do not have an eternal origin. He acts just like that sleeping child who, if he wakes up, cries, makes fusses and torments the poor father, who almost regrets having such a nervous child. This is why my Divine Will is revealing so many of Its knowledges – to wake man up from his long sleep, so that, waking up in my Fiat, he may lose the sleep of the human will, he may reacquire what he lost, and may feel the kisses, the love, the loving squeezes to the bosom of His Creator. So, each knowledge that regards my Divine Will is a call, it is a voice that I emit, it is a cry that I send, to wake man up from the sleep of the human will.”
Vol. 24, June 3, 1928



More so by living in the Divine Will Jesus forms within the soul of the creature the book of the Divine Fiat.  A book which is hers to pour over again and again and always gain something new.  And in having the fullness of this book in the interior of the creature she then has the knowledge to read the volumes of the exterior book of the Divine Will in the Creation.  For someone like myself, who is an avid reader, I can't even tell you what a comfort it is to me to know that even without a book in hand, even if the Volumes should be denied to me, I will always have my own book of the Divine Fiat to pour over in my interior which can never be taken away.

“My daughter, one who does my Will and lives in Him forms in her soul the book of the Divine Fiat, but this book must be full, no void, or else some (partially) written page; if it is not full she will immediately finish reading it, and not having that to read she will occupy herself with other, and hence the life of my Divine Will will be interrupted and as broken in the creature. Instead if she is full, she will always hold (something) to read, and if it seems that she finishes, I will add on other pages more sublime, in order to make that she never lacks the life, the always new knowledge and the substantial food of my Divine Volition.  So that the interior must be as so many pages in order to form this book, pages the intelligence, pages the will and the memory, page the desire, the affection, the heartbeat, page the word that must know how to repeat that which has been read, otherwise it will remain a book that won’t do good for anyone, while [for] one who forms a book the first purpose is to propagate it.  Hence the entire interior must be written with pages of my Divine Will, and this book must be so very full, as to not be able to find other to read if not my Will alone.  Now when the soul has her interior book full, she will know much good (of) the exterior book of the Divine Will:  all the Creation is none other than (a) book of Him, every created thing is a page that forms a most great book and of many volumes.  Whence having formed her interior book and (having) read it very well, she will know how to read very well the exterior book of all the Creation, and in all things she will re-find my Divine Will in act to give her his life, his most high and sublime lessons, and his dainty and holy food.  It will happen, to one who has formed in her interior this book of the Divine Fiat and read it very well, as [to] one who has possessed a book, has read it and reread it, has studied well the most difficult things, has smoothed out all the difficulties, made clear the most obscure points, in a way that she has consumed her life over that book, if a person of outside might bring her another similar book, she will most certainly know it and will recognize in that book hers.  More so that my Divine Will has enclosed the creature in his Most Holy circle and has put in the depth of (her) soul the book of his Fiat, and in the Creation he has repeated his divine book, in a way that the one makes the echo in the other and they understand each other admirably.  Behold therefore it is necessary to recognize the book of the Divine Fiat in the depth of one’s own soul, to read it very well in order to make perennial life of it, and thus with facility she can read the beautiful pages and the great book of my Will of all the Creation.”

Each book of the life of the creature was written by God before time.  We have the choice of free will to copy this book or not.  But when we do our own will we spoil the original story erasing some aspect or other of the original and throwing into confusion the likeness to our Creator that was suppose to develop.  But for those who choose to live this book God himself does these acts first and then gives the creature all the help she needs to copy it.

“Blessed daughter, my Will encloses everything, rather for every creature he holds there his written page, of how her story should develop and form her life, and this written page was ‘ab eterno’ written in the light of our Will.  So that the life of every creature in time had its beginning, but in our Supreme Being she didn’t have beginning and she was loved by us with love without beginning and without end.  Now all the Creation, didn’t yet exist and we loved her, because she was already within us:  we held the great birth of all creatures enclosed within the Sanctuary of our Divinity, we looked in each one of them (at) our written page, her circumstances, her little tale, and according to this, what was more or less written, what should be completed and glorified our Most Holy Will thus we loved her more intensely.  You didn’t exist, but our Will enclosed you and loving you we gave you the place, the rest on our Paternal knees, we gave you the various lessons on our Fiat, and oh! how much pleasure we took in seeing you listen and write in your soul as copying, that which was written in our eternal page.  Because you should know, that which we want that the creature does of our Will, first becomes done by us, formed by us in our same Volition, and then overflowing from us, he wants to do it and form it in the creature making his field of divine action with her.  So much is our love that we don’t want other than that she does that which we have done, giving her the model of our act, so that she makes the copy of it, and how much help, assistance don’t we give, while she makes the copy, giving her our same Will as her act, as prime material, so that the copy succeeds according to our design.

“Now every act of one who does her will does none other than spoil our design, forming some erasures on our written page.  Our every written word, contained a special and eternal love, it contained the development of her life according to our likeness in which it should enclose his story of love and the completion of his Divine Will toward her Creator.  The human volition doesn’t do other than counterfeit this page, throw into confusion our likeness.  And instead of forming the copy of our page, written with so much love for her, she has formed her page written with notes of sorrow, of confusion and with a story so vile and base that the centuries won’t make a memory of it, and the Eternal One will not find in her the echo of the written story in her page in which his divine story should be praised in the creature.

So it is only in the Divine Will that the creature can receive and reciprocate the fullness of the outpouring of the love of God which he has loved us with from before the beginning of time and it all begins with the little punctuation of the "I love you."

“The creature did not exist yet, and we were occupied with him, (man); we contemplated with pleasure our power, wisdom, love, sanctity and our goodness in him; we put ourselves at his disposition in order to make him as much more beautiful (as) we could and to say to him:  ‘You resemble us in everything; more beautiful we could not make you.’

                “This our putting forth our divine qualities and all his acts that he had to do, before man came to the light of time, was for us a love so very intense that it gives of the incredible.  We went on saying in our delirium of love:  ‘Oh man, how much I love you!  I love you in my power, I love you in my wisdom, in my love, in my sanctity; I love you in my goodness, in your own acts that you will do; I love you so much, that I put them all in expectation of you.  My Divine Volition, to which we entrusted everything, our divine dowries and your own acts that will be already yours, are in act to offer them as (an) outlet of his love for you.’
