So she got up, and they began to pray and implore that they might be kept safe. Tobias began by saying,
“Blessed are you, O God of our ancestors,
and blessed is your name in all generations forever.
Let the heavens and the whole creation bless you forever.
You made Adam, and for him you made his wife Eve
as a helper and support.
From the two of them the human race has sprung.
You said, ‘It is not good that the man should be alone;
let us make a helper for him like himself.’
I now am taking this kinswoman of mine,
not because of lust, but with sincerity.
Grant that she and I may find mercy
and that we may grow old together.”
Tobit 8:5-7
“My blessed daughter, in our completed Will becomes enclosed all the glory that the creature can give us, the love with which we must love her, and the love with which she must love us. So that in a completed act of Will we can say we have done everything, everything we have given, even ourselves, and everything we have received. Because with living in him, we give everything, and take everything, and she can give us everything.
Mary and Jesus tell Luisa that company makes joys sweeter and is comfort in sorrows. Solitude, however, dulls joys and makes sorrows even more painful.
Dearest child, how I long for your company, to tell you our story of love and of sorrow. Company renders joys more sweet, tender and dear, and sorrow is mitigated and compensated by the company of the one who loves us.
The Virgin Mary in the Kingdom of the Divine Will, Here sounds the First Hour of Sorrow. Heroism in submitting the Infant Jesus to the Harsh Cut of Circumcision.
Company in operating makes happiness, delight, love of tenderness, competition, accord and heroism arise; isolation produces the opposite.
Vol. 14, November 11, 1922
Only company is what makes everyone happy, it allows good to be carried out, it makes it grow. Isolation makes everything unhappy and sterile. Ah! my daughter - oh! how my love suffers this isolation; and those few who keep Me company form my refreshment and my happiness.”
Vol. 12, September 2, 1920
In the Hours of the Passion, Luisa frequently mentions how often Jesus was alone and how He is always seeking the company of the creature in order to find to comfort in His sufferings.
I was waiting for you, since this is the sadness which most oppressed me: the total abandonment of everyone. I was waiting for you to make you the spectator of my pains, and to have you drink together with me the chalice of the bitterness which my heavenly Father will soon send me by means of an angel. We will sip it together, because it will not be a chalice of comfort, but of intense bitterness; and I feel the need for some loving soul to drink at lease some drops of it. This is why I have called you: to accept it, to share my pains with me, and to assure me that you will not leave me alone in complete abandonment.
The Hours of the Passion, From 9 P.M. to 10 P.M., The First Hour of Agony in the Garden of GethsemaniJesus states that company diminishes pain while solitude intensifies it. He went into the desert to personally experience all the solitude and the harsh pain that the Divine Will and mankind have endured since the fall of man. The desert also portrays the spiritual reality of the soul living outside of the Divine Will. The soul is left in solitude and desolation surrounded by the ferocious animals of her passions. All good becomes a desert. A solitude of centuries that also echoes in Creation. Creation was supposed to be crammed with life and now because of the fall of man much of it is desolate and depopulated. This solitude is also echoed in childless families that lack the image of the fecundity of God and so lack the laughter and vitality that children bring with them. Jesus went into this desolation of the desert in order to restore this fecundity and beauty to the earth and repair the relationship between God and man.
I continued my round in the Divine Fiat, and in following my Jesus on the way to the desert, I thought to myself: ‘Why did Jesus take the way of the desert? There were no souls to be converted there, but profound solitude, while it was souls that He was looking for.’ But while I was thinking of this, my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter, company breaks the pain and diminishes it, while isolation concentrates it, doubles it and makes it more harsh. I wanted to go into the desert to feel in my Humanity all the harshness of the isolation that my Divine Will had suffered for many centuries on the part of creatures. My Humanity had to rise to the divine order and descend into the human order to be able to enclose the pains of both one and the other, and taking upon Myself entirely the painful part that divided man and God, have men cling once again to the embrace and to the kiss of their Creator. But the purpose of my going into the desert was not only this. You must know that Our adorable Majesty, in forming the Creation, established that every place was to be populated by inhabitants, and that the earth was to be extremely fertile and rich with many plants, in such a way that all would have in abundance. As man sinned, he attracted the indignation of divine justice, and the earth remained deserted, infertile, and in many places depopulated – image of those sterile families in which there is no laughter, no feast, no harmony, because they are without children, and so there is no one who breaks the monotony of the two spouses, and the nightmare of isolation weighs on their hearts, leading them to sadness. Such was the human family. On the other hand, where there are children, there is always something to do, something to say, and occasions to celebrate. Look at the sky – how populated with stars it is; the earth was to be the echo of the sky, crammed with inhabitants, and it was to produce so much and to render everyone rich and happy.
As man withdrew from my Will, his lot changed; and I wanted to go into the desert in order to call back the blessings of my Celestial Father and, by calling my Will to reign, restore the earth, populate it everywhere and fecundate it, in such a way that the earth will produce more seeds, and more beautiful ones, such as to increase it a hundredfold, rendering it more fecund and of radiant beauty. How many great things will do the Kingdom of my Divine Fiat! So much so, that all the elements are all in waiting – the Sun, the wind, the sea, the earth and the whole Creation – to deliver from their womb all the goods and effects which they contain. In fact, since the Divine Will that dominates them does not reign in the midst of creatures, they do not put out all the goods which they enclose within them, giving them only what they have to as alms, and as to servants. So, the earth has not produced all the seeds; the Sun, not finding all the seeds, does not produce all the effects and goods It contains; and so with all the rest. This is why all await the Kingdom of the Fiat – to show creatures how rich they are, and how many admirable things the Creator has placed in them for love of the ones who were to be the children of His Will.”

“From Nazareth I passed to the desert where there was maximum solitude and the greatest part had ferocious animals that hardened the desert with their roars that surrounded me, symbol of my Divine Will that since he is not known it forms the desert around the creature and a solitude that makes one horror and fear, the good becomes desert and the soul becomes surrounded by more than ferocious animals, that is her brutal passions that send roars of anger, of bestial furies, of cruelty, of every sort of evil. My Holy Humanity went step-by-step retracing all the sorrows that my Divine Will had suffered in order to repair him and recall him again to reign in the midst of creatures. I can say that my every heartbeat, breath, word, footstep and suffering, was the continuous re-call of my Will in order to make himself known by creatures, in order to make him reign, and he called them in Him in order to make them know the great good, the sanctity, the happiness of living in the Fiat.
Vol. 34, May 31, 1936
Creation feels the weight of solitude. It longs for the ones who live in the Divine Will. With the death of Jesus creation wept and mourned and returned to silence with His departure.
“My daughter, you must know that as long as my Humanity remained on earth, and as long as the Sovereign Queen also was there, there was no solitude nor sepulchral silence in the Creation, because by virtue of the light of the Divine Will, wherever this Will was It spread as light, and diffusing in everything, It multiplied in all created things, and everywhere my act was repeated – because one was the Will. This is so true, that the Creation gave sensible signs both at my birth, and even more so at my death, to the point that the sun became dark, the stones split, the earth trembled, as if all were crying for their Creator, for their King. They cried for the One who had kept them in feast, who had broken their solitude and sepulchral silence; and, all feeling the bitterness of such a hard privation, they gave signs of sorrow and crying, and returned once again to the mourning of their solitude and silence. In fact, as I departed from the earth, the One who, in the light of my Will, emitted the voice which, forming the echo, rendered the Creation speaking and operating, was no longer there.
Vol. 19, July 29, 1926
Worse than solitude is being ignored, alienated and rejected while still in the midst of others. Now God is always in the midst of creatures as their very life and the creature can't exist without God but creatures do not recognize Him and leave Him in isolation while still depending on Him for everything. Even more so they use His very gifts to offend Him and even kill Him.
Cling to me, for I have come to keep you company and to receive yours in exchange. See, I am the God isolated by creatures; I live in their midst, I am life of each one of their acts, while they keep Me as if I were not with them. Oh, how I cry over my loneliness! I have had the same lot as the sun: while it lives in the midst of all with its light and heat, and there is no fecundity which does not come from it, and with its heat it purifies the earth of so many filthy things, and its goods are incalculable which, with magnanimity, it makes descend upon all, yet, it lives up high, always alone, while man, ungrateful, never sends a ‘thank you’ to it, or a sign of gratitude.
So I am - alone! always alone… while, being in their midst, I am light of every thought, sound of every word, motion of every work, step of every foot, beat of every heart. Yet, man, ungrateful, leaves Me alone, and he says not a ‘thank You’ to Me, not one ‘I love You’.
I remain isolated in his intelligence, because he uses the light I give to him for himself, and perhaps even to offend Me. I remain isolated in his words, because many times the sound that they form serves to blaspheme against Me. I remain isolated in his works, which he uses to kill Me; in his steps and in his heart, which are intent only on disobeying Me, and on loving what does not belong to Me. Oh, how this loneliness weighs on Me! But my love, my magnanimity, is so great that, more than sun, I continue my course, and in my course I keep investigating whether anyone wants to keep Me company in so much loneliness. And as I find him, I form my perennial company in him, and I lavish all my graces upon him. This is why I have come to you - I was tired of so much loneliness. Never leave Me alone, my daughter.”

“Daughter of my Volition, do not leave me alone. Your Mama wants you together (with her). I want your company in the incessant work that I do for all creatures; I do everything for them, I don’t leave them one instant, because if I leave them they would lose (their) life. And yet there isn’t one who recognizes me; rather they offend me, while I am all for them. Oh, how hard solitude is! Therefore I long for you, my daughter. Oh, how dear your company is to me in my acts! Company renders work sweet, it empties the weight of it and is bearer of new joys.”
Vol. 30, November 9, 1931
God experiences the solitude of as of a great teacher who does not have a single student who wants to learn and listen to Him when He finds no one living in the Divine Will. The solitude of an immensely rich man who has no one to share His riches with and is left in bitter isolation. Only one who lives in the Divine Will has the capacity to receive to receive His lessons as life, learn from Him and receive His immense gifts, the infinite into the finite.
“My daughter, born and reborn in our Volition; you must know that the living in our Volition contains such prodigies and unheard of wonders, that the heavens themselves are shaken, and reverent they abase themselves in sensing them, because in her (the creature) we can unfold our creative work, we can depose our love, our deliriums, our anxieties and sighs, our Will; she will make our Supreme Majesty understood, she will make us loved with our love.
“Without her we find ourselves like a teacher that possesses all the sciences; he could impart his lessons to all the universities, to all the schools; not at all, he doesn’t even find one pupil whom (will) learn his sciences. What sorrow for this teacher! To possess so many sciences, and to hold them useless in himself, without being able to make known the value of the sciences that he possesses. Oh, if this teacher might find one single pupil that might want to learn his sciences, he would put him upon his knees, he would hold him with himself night and day, he would feel that his science will not die, but will live in his pupil, and as almost duplicate his life. Oh how he would love him! He would feel reborn in his pupil; the solitude broken, loved by [the one to whom] he imparts his lessons; hence, it would change his bitter life into joys.
“Such is our Supreme Being. If we don’t find one who lives in our Divine Will, we are like the teacher, that we don’t have one to whom to impart our lessons; we possess infinite sciences, and yet we don’t have one to whom to say a word, because (there) is missing the light of our Volition, that will make them understand that which we want to teach them. Instead, if one lives in our Volition, we will feel ourselves revived in the creature; we can teach her our divine sciences, rather they will form life in her; she will understand our celestial dialect and marvel, she will love us as we want one to love us. And here is ours and her fate changed; solitude won’t exist anymore, the company will be perennial; we will always have to say, and will hold one who listens to us; our eternal sorrow will be changed into joys, into festivals because the creature lives in ours Volition.
“Or rather it happens for us, when we don’t find one who lives in our Will, as one who possesses immense riches, but so many, that he feels as drown by them; and yet he doesn’t find neither one to give to, nor one who takes his goods. Poor (man), in his riches he is very unhappy, he suffers a cruel solitude; there is no one who loves him, who respects him, who says to him one thank you rather it seems that they flee from him, because he doesn’t find neither one to whom to give them to, nor one who takes them. Without company, joy dies, and with not giving them to anyone he feels that his goods, his life, doesn’t live in the others; and isolation is the greatest of bitternesses.
“Oh, how many times we want to give and don’t have one to give to! Rather, with not doing our Will one closes the doors to us, impedes the step to us, indeed one puts oneself at (a) distance from us and surrounds oneself with misery, weakness, (and) the most ugly passions.
“Behold that the living in our Volition awakens wonder in everyone, and we ourselves remain amazed by it, having to enclose the infinite in the finite, the immensity in the littleness. It is necessary that we make such wonders and prodigies, that only our love reigning over our Divine Being induces us to do the most outstanding wonders, but so much so that the angels and saints themselves remain surprised and mute for (the) amazement of it.”

Vol. 35, March 20, 1938
Jesus states that suffering solitude is the most oppressive of sufferings. In the Eucharist so many receive Him just to place Him in solitude as if He meant nothing to them. Because of this He is unable to share anything with them and is forced to wait for His Eucharistic presence to dissolve in order to take His leave without being able to do any good other than to leave the mark of His tears. These souls receive Him but remain sterile of love, sterile of virtues. Jesus can only vent His love to one who pays attention to Him. He often becomes forced to hide His own needs and sorrows to attend to their demands. Only when He finds one who will keep Him company can He make the deposit of His virtues, and give the fruit of His sacrifices. He lets such a one participate in His Life, and He chooses to make His home in her using her as a hideaway from sufferings, a refuge, and with this He feels repaid for the great sacrifice of His Eucharistic Life.
“My daughter, be faithful to me do not leave me ever alone, because the suffering of solitude is the most oppressive, because company is the food of relief for one who suffers, instead without company one suffers sorrow and is constrained to feel hunger, because he lacks one who gives the relief of food, he lacks everything, and perhaps he lacks one who can offer him relief, might it yet be a bitter medicine. My daughter, how many souls receive Me Sacramentally in their hearts and they put Me in solitude, I feel in them as within a desert, as if I might not pertain to them, they deal with Me as extraneous, but do you know why they don’t take part in my life, in my virtues, in my sanctity, in my joys and in my sorrows, company means to take part in all that which the person does and suffers that remains near, hence to receive me and not take part in my life, it is for Me the most bitter solitude, and remaining alone I can not say to them how much I burn with love for them, and therefore my love, my sanctity, my virtue, my life remains isolated, in short everything is solitude inside of Me and outside of Me. Oh! How many times I descend into hearts and cry, because I see Myself alone, and when I descend, seeing myself alone I feel not cared for, nor appreciated, nor loved, so much so that I am constrained by their carelessness, to reduce myself to silence and melancholy, and since they don’t take part in my Sacramental Life, I feel set apart in their hearts, and seeing that I don’t have anything to do, with Divine and unconquered patience, I await the consummation of the Sacramental species, inside of which my eternal Fiat had imprisoned Me, leaving hardly the traces of my descent, because I could leave nothing of my Sacramental Life, perhaps only my tears, because not having taken part in my life, (there) lacked the void where to be able to leave the things that belong to Me, and that I wanted to put in common with them. Therefore one sees so many souls that receive Me Sacramentally and they don’t give forth of Me, they are sterile of virtue, sterile of love, of sacrifice, poor little ones, they feed themselves with Me, but since they don’t keep Me company they remain fasting. Ah! To what straights of sorrow and cruel martyrdom my Sacramental Life is put. Many times I feel drowned with love, I would like to free myself and I long to descend into hearts, but alas! I am constrained to go forth from it more drowned than before, how can I vent if they have not even made attention to the flames that burned Me? Other times the flood of sorrow inundates Me, I long for a heart in order to have a relief to my sufferings, not a bit! They would like that I might take their part, not them to mine, and I do it, I hide my sorrows, my tears, in order to console them and then I remain without the longed for relief. But who can tell you the so many sorrows of my Sacramental Life and how there are more of those that receive Me and put Me in solitude in their hearts, but bitter solitude, than those that keep Me company? And when I find a heart that keeps Me company, I put my Life in communication with her, leaving her the deposit of my virtues, the fruit of my sacrifices, the participation of my Life, and I choose her for my abode, for (the) hideaway of my sufferings and as (a) place of my refuge, and I feel as repaid for the sacrifice of my Eucharistic Life, because I found one who breaks my solitude for Me, who dries my tears, who gives Me liberty to let me vent my love and my sorrows, it is they who serve Me as living species, not like the Sacramental species that gives Me nothing, only that they hide Me, the rest I do by myself all alone, they don’t tell Me a word that breaks my solitude, they are mute species. Instead in the souls that serve Me as living species, we develop life together, we beat with one heartbeat alone, and if I see her disposed, I communicate my sufferings to her and my continuous passion, I can say that from the Sacramental species I pass into the living species in order to continue my Life upon the earth, not alone but together with her. You should know that the sufferings are not in my power anymore, and I go asking for love from these living species of souls, that make up for Me that which I lack. Therefore my daughter, when I find a heart that loves Me and keeps Me company, giving me liberty to do that which I want, I arrive to excesses, I don’t mind to anything I give so much that the poor creature feels drown by my love and by my graces, and then my Sacramental Life doesn’t remain sterile anymore when I descend into hearts, no, but it reproduces itself, bilocating and continuing my Life in her, and these are my conquerors that administer their life to this needy poor man of sufferings and they say to Me: ‘My love, you had your turn of sufferings and it ended, it is now my turn, therefore leave it to me that I might make up for You and that I suffer in your place.’ And oh, how content I remain from it! My Sacramental Life remains at its post of honor because it reproduces other of its lives in creatures. Therefore I want you always together with Me, so that we have life together, and you take to breast/heart my life and I take up yours.”
Vol. 31, January 18,1933
Jesus endures isolation in the Eucharist for the sake of creatures. He endures a lonely prison where the solitude causes Him to burst into tears.
“And then there is my eucharistic life, that gives proof of it and confirmation of that which I say to you, are they not perhaps little veils the accidents of the bread, in which I remain consecrated, I live and truly in soul and body(,) blood and divinity? And if there are a thousand hosts, a thousand lives of mine I form in every single host, if there is only one host, I form there only one life of mine. And then, what does the host give me? Nothing, not an I love you, nor a breath, nor a heartbeat, nor is a step of company, I am alone, and many times the solitude oppresses me, embitters me and I burst into weeping; how it weighs on me not having one to whom to say a word, I am under the nightmare of a profound silence. What does the host give me? The hideaway in order to hide me, the tiny prison in order to have (that) I would remain in order to speak, in order to make me unhappy. But since it is my Will that wants that I remain sacramentally in every host, he that is not ever bearer of unhappiness, neither to us, nor to the creatures that live in him, he makes flow in my sacramental life, our celestial joys that are inseparable from us, but always on our part; but the host never gives anything to me, it doesn’t defend me, nor love me.
Vol. 36, August 21, 1938
Within the Holy Eucharist Jesus repeats His entire life each day, all His works, pains, solitude, prayers, acts, passion and death. All of this in order to call the Kingdom of the Divine Will to be done in Heaven as in earth. We can console and break His solitude by accompanying Him and reviewing His life with Him each day.
After this I followed to pray before the Tabernacle of love, and in my interior I said to myself: “What do you do, my Love, in this Prison of love?” And Jesus all goodness said to me:
“My daughter, do you want to know what I do? I make my day; you should know that I enclosed all my life passed down here inside of a day. My day begins with (my) conception and being born, the veils of the sacramental accidents serve me for bands for my infantile age, and when [for] human ingratitude they leave me alone and seek to offend me, I make my exile, leaving me only the company of some loving soul, that as a second mother doesn’t know how to detach herself from me and keeps me faithful company. From the exile I pass to Nazareth making my hidden life in the company of those few good ones who surrounded me. And following my day, as creatures approach to receive me, thus I make my public life, repeating my evangelical scenes, handing to each one my teachings, the helps, the comforts that are necessary to her, I do as Father, as Teacher, as Physician, and if needs be also as Judge. Hence I spend my day waiting for everyone and doing good to everyone. And oh! how many times she touches me (only) to remain alone, without a heart that palpates near me, I feel a desert around me, and I remain alone, alone to pray, I feel the solitude of my days that passed in the desert down here, and oh, how very sorrowful it is to me! It is I that palpate for everyone in every heart, jealous I am at watch of everyone, I feel isolated and abandoned. But my day doesn’t end with only the abandonment, there is no day in which ungrateful souls don’t offend me, and receive me sacrilegiously, and they make me perform my day with my Passion and with my death on the cross. Ah! it is the sacrilege(,) the most merciless death that I receive in this Sacrament of love. So that in this Tabernacle I make my day with performing all that which I performed in the thirty-three years of my mortal life. And since [in] all that which I did and I do, the first purpose, the first act of life is the Will of my Father, that he does as in Heaven thus in earth, thus in this little Host, I don’t do other than to implore that one be my Will with my children, and I call you in this Divine Will in which you find all my Life in act, and you following it, ruminating (over) it and offering it(,) you unite with me in my Eucharistic day, in order to obtain that my Will be known and reign upon the earth. And thus you also can say: ‘I make my day together with Jesus.’”
Vol. 29, September 12, 1931
Jesus not only wants the company of the creature in His daily life but He wants to find her in all of Creation as well.
“I have done everything for you, come to enjoy and possess all that which with so much love I have created for you, do not make yourself estranged from all that which belongs to you nor make ours and your possessions isolated and deserted. Come and make your voice echoed, so that it resounds in all our created things. Make us feel the sweet stamping of your steps. Solitude grieves us, company puts us in feast and gives us the sweet surprises of the joys that our beloved creature can give us.”
Vol. 30, April 23, 1932
God's desire for the company of His creature is so great that that He creates in Himself the need to love such that He puts Himself at the service of the creature. His desire to be with the creature extends to even placing Himself as a voluntary prisoner within each creature in order to fill them with His Divine Life in as much as each will allow it. But He wants to do this together with them in agreement. Solitude breaks His designs when the creature does not know Him and does not want to lend her little acts to accompany His. Without these she can not receive His works. The little expressions of love that come from His beloved creature is His all consuming focus and joy.
“You should know that our Supreme Being possesses in nature creative strength, the redeeming virtue and the life that revives and sanctifies all. Now in creating the Creation we did it as alone, without the creature, but after created, our love is so much toward her that we wanted to continue and to develop the creative strength together with her, and while with the conservation the creation is as if in the act (in which) we were creating it, this creative strength unifies and invests souls and it continues the Creation in the interior of each one. And what do we create? New Heavens of love, new suns of knowledge, new seas of grace, new air of sanctity, new winds of refreshment that embalm the creature, new life always growing with our Divine Will, new flowers of beauty, of holy desires. In short, our creative virtue makes echo in souls the echo of the Creation of all things, and with a Wisdom and goodness all ours, we always create, without ever stopping. If we might ever stop, that which can not be, we should restrict this creative nature of ours, that holds the virtue of always creating. But with all this, our Divine Heights abased ourselves so much, we descended into the depth of creatures, and we develop there together our creative virtue, as we don’t want to do it alone, solitude would break Our arms, and it would put a limit to our creative strength and virtue. We, in order to be able to love more, We form ourselves with laws of love and we have created in Us the need to love. So that to love in Us is necessity, but a wanted necessity not forced by anyone, and it is this necessity to love that makes Us do so many unheard of things, it makes Us give into excesses and into follies toward creatures. It would have been absurd and not ways of a perfect Being that is ours, to create things and beings to live and not to love them, rather first we love them, we make our love as first act race and then we bring them forth to the light as birth, outlet and triumph of our love, if this might not be the creation would have been an unbearable weight and not of glory and of honor, things that don’t love each other flee each other. Instead We love them so much that we enclose Ourselves in them, making ourselves voluntary Prisoners, in order to form our Divine Life in the creature and fill her with Us, for how capable they are. And in order to make that we might love her more and in order to be more loved, we want that she know it and we want her in our company, in order to make that she herself sees and touches with (her) hand that which we are working, and how we want our Divine life in her soul. Our love does not give itself pause, and according to the dispositions and cooperation of the creature, now we develop the creative strength, now the redemptive, and now the sanctifying, according to her needs and the correspondence that she lends Us. But all this always together with her, never alone, we want to use the creative virtue, but we want that she knows and receives it, we want to use the redeeming virtue, if sin tyrannizes her, but we want that she feels the good that we want to make her, and she receive it with love and gratitude. We want to use the sanctifying virtue, but we want that she lends herself to receive the transformation of our holy acts in hers, in order to receive our sanctifying virtue. If the soul doesn’t remain together with us and doesn’t unite her little work, to our great work, for Us it would be as if we might want to develop our work of love over inanimate things, that don’t feel and don’t know anything of the good that they receive and for them it would be as the distant God that they neither know, nor love. You should know that our love is so much, that all creatures swim and are inside of this immense sea of our love, it is as if we might not be content with so much immensity of this love of ours, our Supreme Being makes himself Fisherman and goes fishing the little drops of love of creatures, their little acts, their little sacrifices, the sufferings suffered for our love, an ‘I love you‘ with heart that she has said to Us. We fish all from within our same sea in order to take the contentment, the happiness of the exchange of the love of the creature and we crave it so much that we make our daily fishing and prepare our Celestial table. True love has the virtue of transforming things, it puts forth the sweet enchantment to our Divine pupils and makes the little loving acts of creatures beautiful, attractive, likable to Us, in a way that enraptures Us, wounds Us, felicitates Us. In (that) We make ourselves enrapturers, making of her our most pleasant conquest. Therefore if you want to make us happy and be (the) bearer to your God of joys and happiness, love, love always, don’t ever stop loving us and in order to be more secure enclose all yourself in the Divine Fiat, which will let nothing escape of you that is not love for your Creator.”
Vol. 31, February 12, 1933
God longs for the company of the creature but by not living in the Divine Will we cause God, and ourselves to live in solitude. Peace flees from the creature without God. She becomes weakened. Good dies and beauty is besmirched. Without the company of God the creature is instead kept company with disturbances, passions, miseries and darkness. The creature can not receive and God can not give, isolating both, the one from the other and God, the Word Incarnate, is reduced to silence.
“And it is really this not living in my Will, leaving me alone! The human volition removes the creature from her Creator, and as she removes herself peace flees, and disturbances takes (the) place that torment her, the strength is weakened, the beauty is discolored, the good dies and evil rises, passions keep her company, poor creature without my Will, in what abyss of miseries and of darkness she casts herself! It happens like to the flower that is not watered, it feels itself lose life, it loses color declines upon its stem in order to await death, and if the sun invests it, not finding it watered, it burns it and finishes to dry it. Such is the soul without my Will, it is as a soul without water; my own truths that are more splendid than the sun, not finding water from the life of my Will, burn it more, they blind it and render it incapable of understanding them and of receiving the good, the life that they possess; and they arrive to such excesses that the good, my own truths, bearers of life to creatures, wage war. Therefore I want you always in my Will, so that neither you nor I suffer the hard pain of solitude.”

“My little daughter of my Volition, it is really true that one who doesn’t live in our Will, it puts him in solitude and reduces him to silence; you should know that every creature is a new and distinct work that we hold to do, and hence new things to say; if she doesn’t live in our Volition we feel that that creature is distant from Us because her will is not in ours, therefore apart from her, we feel alone, impeded in our work, and if we want to speak, it is as if we might want to speak to the deaf, to the mute. Therefore one who doesn’t live in our Volition is our cross, impedes our step, ties our arms, knocks down our most beautiful works, and I who am the Word am reduced to silence.
Vol. 33, March 11, 1934
When we do our own will we work alone. Isolated without help, support, defense, or light. We are left to our own devices and as such we are as abandoned. Jesus allows this so that the soul will feel the full weight of the human will and what it means to be without the Divine Will. But for one who lives in the Divine Will she is not ever alone but has all of Heaven, the angels, the Saints are with her to help, defend, support and keep her company.
“My daughter, one who does their own will sets themselves apart from everyone and works alone, there is no one who helps her, nor one who gives her strength, nor one who gives her light, in order to do the best of that which she does, so that everyone leaves her in the power of herself, isolated, without support, and without defense. One can call her the (abandoned one)[deleritta], the lost one in the Creation, just suffering for one who wants to do her will, to feel all the weight of solitude, in which she has put herself, and the lack of all the helps, and oh the sorrow that I feel in seeing so many creatures set apart also by Me, and I in order to make them touch with (their) hand, what it means to do without my Will, I am as far away, making them feel the whole weight of the human volition, which never gives her rest and becomes her most cruel tyrant. All to the contrary for one who does my Will, all are with her, Heaven, the Saints, the Angels, because for honor and respect of my Divine Volition everyone is obligated to help that creature and sustain her in those acts where my Will enters. He himself puts her in communication with everyone, and commands everyone that they help, defend, and make her the cortege of their company, the grace, the shimmering light already smiles at her in her soul, and he administers the best to her, the most beautiful in her act, I myself remain busy in one who does my Will and I will make flow in her acts, mine, in order to have the honor, the love, the glory, of my acts in the act of the creature, that has worked in my Will, behold therefore she feels the connection with everyone, the strength, the support, the company, the defense of everyone. So that one who does my Will and lives in Him can be called the re-found one of the Creation, the daughter, the sister, the friend of everyone. She does as the sun that from the heights of its sphere rains light, and enlarging itself encloses all in its light, gives itself to everyone, doesn’t deny itself to anyone, and as faithful sister embraces all things, and gives as pledge of its love to every created thing, its beneficent effect, constituting itself life of the effect that it gives. In some it forms the life of sweetness, in other created things the life of perfume, in others the life of the colors and so on. Thus my Will, from the heights of his throne, rains his light, and where he finds the creature that wants to receive him in order to let him dominate, he surrounds her, embraces her, warms her, molds her in order to make her mature, and thus encloses his admirable life as if he might be life of the creature and with this life everything and everyone are with her, as everything is of my adorable Will.”
Vol. 33, November 26, 1933
God longs for the company of the creature with urgency. He longs for His bitter isolation to end so that He can continue His creative act in her and who lives in His Will is in continuous company with God undergoing His creative act. She gives Him His glory and exchange love in all things and God holds her jealously to His bosom.
“You must know that the thing that is most urgent to our Supreme Being is the company of the creature. We do not want to be the isolated God, nor to hold her far from us; isolation has never been the bearer of great works or of happiness; company matures the birth of good and makes arise the most beautiful works to the light. Behold therefore we created so many things, in order to have (the) occasions to have her company so many times for how many things we created, and since that which we did one time we are always in the act of doing it, one who lives in our Volition is always in company with us; she undergoes our creative act and we receive the glory, the exchange of the created love.
“Therefore we hold her company in the celestial spheres, in the radiant sun, in the auras of the wind, in the air that everyone breathes, in the murmur of the sea; anywhere and everywhere she follows us, defends us and reciprocates us in love. She does not know how to live without us or without loving us, and we cannot be without her, and jealous we hold her pressed to our divine bosom.”
Then he added: “The company of the creature is so very dear to us, that we form our recreation with her, we make the greatest decisions for our glory and for the good of human generations we complete our designs while we are in company. Our love rises to new life, and goes inventing new contrivances of love and new surprises in order to chain creatures to always love us and more.
“If not for company, with whom should we vent ourselves? Upon whom to form our designs? Where to rest our love that always rises? Hence, our goods, without company, would be depressed, without being able to give life to that which we want to do for love of creatures. Do you see therefore how much her company is necessary to our love, to our works and to the completion of our Volition?”

Vol. 35, December 6, 1937
The creature was not created to live in isolation but in continuous communion with God. Only when someone lives in the Divine Will can God form complete divine acts out of the creatures acts which allows Him to give as fully as He longs to give.
“Instead if she doesn’t live in our Volition, if our Will is not completed, we can not give everything, she will be incapable of receiving our love, nor will she hold (the) capacity of loving us how much we want to be loved; and we to give of ours almost in little particles, as if we might be poor, we are not content; we don’t like giving our things at half, to be able to give and not give is always a sorrow for us, our love remains repressed and makes us give into delirium.
“Behold therefore we want the soul to live in our Divine Volition, because we want to give; everything and always without ever ceasing to give, our divine being never exhausts itself, how much more we give so much more we can give, and giving for us is relief, is happiness, is (an) outlet of love, is communication of our life that we do, and my love is so much that I remain in the soul in order to grow myself.
“Now, having to grow myself I watch over it continually, so that that which she does serves to make my life grow in her, I dispose her acts, her love, some to form my members, some my Heart, some the food in order to feed me, some the dress in order to cover me, in order to warm me; I am always in aptness in order to unite her motion to mine, her breath to mine, in order to find her motion in mine and her breath as if it were my motion and breath; I don’t let anything escape of that which she does, thinks, speaks, works, suffers, because it must serve to myself and to make my life grow. Hence I always remain in aptness, I never give rest to myself; and oh, how content I am with it, how happy I feel always being occupied in my work to make myself grow in her.
“I didn’t create the creature so that she might remain isolated at all, it was my work and hence I had to unfold my work in order to form worthy work of me. Therefore if she doesn’t live in my Will I don’t find the first matter in order to form and grow my life, we live as distant, as isolated, and the solitude grieves me, the silence weighs on me; not being able to unfold my work, I give into manias of love and I feel myself rendered the unhappy God apart from creatures.
“Therefore, my daughter, be attentive, live always in my Will lend me your acts, let me work in order not to hold me in you as a God that might not be able or know how to do anything, while I hold to do the greatest work of making grow and forming my life, which will be so very beautiful that it will form the sweet enchantment to all the Celestial Court.
Vol. 36, September 11, 1938
To live in the Divine Will is to keep Jesus company and be united to Him. Everything He does, she does, everything He loves, she loves, if He is offended she suffers together with Him. It is only because of this company that Jesus refrains from punishing mankind as they merit. When Jesus sees all of Creation and all the Redemption bejeweled with the creature's "I love you" then He no longer feels the crushing solitude of the grave. However He will intermix speaking with silence in order to give the creature time to respond to all He has worked in her so that the act might be complete and they might rest together.
“You feel how beautiful it is to live in my Volition, that which I do, she does; how she feels that I say to her: ‘I love you’; immediately she repeats to me: ‘I love you.’ And I in feeling myself loved transform her so much into me, that with one voice alone we say: ‘We love everyone, we do good to everyone, we give life to everyone.’ If I bless, we bless together, we adore, we glorify together, we race together in help of everyone, and if they offend me we suffer together; and oh, how content I am in seeing that a creature doesn’t leave me alone ever! How beautiful is the company of one who wants that which I want and does that which I do! The union makes rise the happiness, the heroism in doing good, the tolerance in supporting (it), much more so that it is a human creature that belongs to the human family, that doesn’t do other than send me nails, thorns and pains; and I finding in this my hideaway and my desired company, knowing that she would be displeased if I punished them as they merit, in order not to displease her, I abstain (from) punishing them as they merit. Therefore, do not ever leave me alone, solitude is one of the hardest and most intimate sufferings of my Heart; not having one to whom to say a word to, as much in the sufferings as in the joys, it makes me give into such manias of sorrow and of love that if you might be able to experience them you would die of pure sorrow.
“My dearest daughter, you must know that my word is work, while my silence is rest; and my word is work not only for Me, but also for you. It is my usual way that, after I have worked, I want to rest in the midst of my very works – they are my softest bed in my rest; and since you have listened to my word and have worked together with Me, with Me you must take rest. Look, my daughter – how beautiful the whole Creation is! It was the word of your Jesus that worked It with one Fiat. But do you know what is the enchantment that enraptures Me? Your little ‘I love You’ on each created thing. With this little ‘I love You’ of yours impressed on each of them, they all speak to Me of your love, they speak to Me of my newborn of my Will; I hear the harmonious echo of the whole Creation that speaks to Me about you. Oh! how it enraptures Me, how happy I am to see that my Fiat in Creation and the one taught to you hold hands, intertwine together, and fulfilling my Will, they give Me rest.
“But I am not content with resting alone, I want the one who gives Me rest together with Me, that she may take rest, and we may enjoy together the fruits of our work. Look – do all Creation and all the works of my Redemption not seem to you more beautiful with your ‘I love You’, with your adoration and with your will transfused in mine, carrying out its life in the midst of the celestial spheres? There is no more solitude, nor that sepulchral silence that was there before in the celestial spheres and in all my works; but there is the little daughter of my Will keeping them company, making her voice heard, loving, adoring, praying. Holding on to her rights, given to her by my Will, she possesses everything, and when there is someone who possesses, there is no more solitude, nor the silence of a grave. This is why, after having spoken to you at length, I keep silent – it is the rest necessary for Me and for you, so that I may be able to resume my word again, and therefore continue my work and yours. But while I rest I contemplate all my works; my love rises within Me, and as it is reflected in Me, I delight, and I conceive within Myself more images similar to Me; and my Will places them outside of Me as triumph of my love, and as the beloved generation of my Supreme Fiat. So, in my rest I generate children for my Will, all similar to Me, and in my word I deliver them and give them development, beauty, height; and my word keeps forming them as worthy children of the Supreme Fiat. Therefore, my daughter, each word of mine is a gift that I give you; and if I call you to rest it is so that you may contemplate my gift, and delighting in it and loving it, you may let more gifts arise within you, similar to those I have given you; and as you release them, they may form, together, the generation of the children of the Supreme Fiat. How happy we will be!”
Vol. 19, July 20, 1926
For those who are called by Jesus to His own likeness He places them into His same conditions which He experienced with His Humanity. He only partook of things of the most basic necessity and lived as detached from the earth, as suspended in the air, being detached from everyone with no human supports. Such is how He would have us be, all focus is on Him and being bound to His Will she does what He does seeking the good for all.
“Now, one whom I call to my likeness, I place in the same conditions in which I placed my own Humanity. Therefore, I Myself am your prop, my own arms are your support; and as I make you live in my arms, suspended in the air, only things of strict necessity can reach you. For one who lives in my Will, detached from everyone, all for Me, anything more than strict necessities are vile things, and a degrading herself from her nobility. And if human supports are given to her, she senses the stench of the human, and she herself drives them away.”
Then He added: “As soon as the soul enters into my Will, her volition remains bound with my Eternal Volition; and even if she does not think about it, since her will has been bound to Mine, whatever my Will does, hers does as well, and together with Me she runs for the good of all.”
Vol. 12, June 10, 1920Jesus makes Himself all for one who is all for Him. He supplies and is everything for her but in turn she must look to Him for everything. She can not turn to anyone else for advice or comfort. This is the jealousy of God for a soul living in the Divine Will dedicated to Him. He keeps her isolated from the world so that she might be entirely His. She shares in His solitude but gains His perpetual company.
...having received Holy Communion, all afflicted, I was repeating my great affliction to my affectionate Jesus, saying to Him: ‘My Life, my Good and my All, it shows that You alone are everything for me. I have never found in any creature, as good and holy as he might be, a word, a comfort, a solution for the slightest doubt of mine. It shows how there is to be no one for me, but You alone: You alone – the All for me, and I alone, alone – always alone for You. And so I abandon myself in You, completely and always. As bad as I am, have the goodness of holding me in your arms, without leaving me for one single instant.’
While I was saying this, my blessed Jesus made Himself seen looking in my interior, turning everything upside down to see if there was something which He did not like. And while turning and turning, He took something like a grain of white sand in His hands, and He threw it to the ground. Then He said to me: “Dearest daughter of mine, it is absolutely right that for one who is all for Me, I be all for her. I am too jealous that someone else might give her the slightest comfort. I alone – I Myself alone want to make up for all, and in everything. What is it that afflicts you? What do you want? I do everything to make you content. Do you see that white grain that I removed from you? It was nothing but a little bit of anxiety, for you wanted to know my Will from others. I removed it from you and I threw it on the ground so as to leave you in holy indifference - the way I want you.
Vol. 10, November 29, 1910The process Jesus uses to form a soul that is to live all for Him may at the time seem painful because the food of the Divine Will can only be appreciated when the human will is purged of all human purpose. To facilitate this the Divine Will keeps the human will as on an empty stomach frustrating any self serving satisfactions. It is only then that the the soul turns to the Divine food when she can't sate her appetite with the human. Then she can appreciate the value of Divine and she comes to love it so much as to never want to exchange it again even at the cost of her life. Keeping the human will as a footstool to the Divine is the only way God can establish His Kingdom in the soul changing her entire interior. But creatures are used to looking down and so admire the things of the earth, even the little lights in the practice of the Virtues rather than looking up at the dazzling Sun of the Divine Will.
I was thinking to myself: ‘My sweet Jesus says many great, admirable, highest and wonderful things about the Will of God, yet it seems to me that creatures do not have that concept which It deserves, nor that great impression of the wonders which are in It. On the contrary, it seems that they place It on the same level as the virtues, and maybe they care more about those, than about the Most Holy Will of God.’ And my always lovable Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:
“My daughter, do you want to know why? Because their palates are not purged, and they are accustomed to the ordinary foods of this low world, which are the virtues, and not to the celestial and divine food, which is my Will. This celestial food is appreciated only by those who consider earth, things, and even people, as nothing, or as fully ordered in God. The virtues which can be practiced on earth are rarely exempt from human purposes, from self-esteem, from self-glory, love of appearing and of pleasing people. All these aims are like many tastes for the ordinary palate of the soul; and many times one operates more for these tastes than for the good that the virtue contains. This is why virtues breach more easily – because the human will always gains something. On the other hand, the first thing that my Will knocks down is the human will, and It tolerates no purpose which gives of human. My Will is from Heaven, and wants to place in the soul that which is divine and which belongs to Heaven; therefore one’s own self remains on an empty stomach and feels itself dying. So, in feeling her own self dying and in losing the hope of having any other food left, the soul makes up her mind to take the food of my Will; and as she takes it, her palate being purged, she feels the taste of the food of my Will, which is such that she would not exchange it at the cost of her life.
“My Will does not know how to compromise, as virtues do, with the low and little things that can be done on earth; rather, It wants to keep everything and everyone as a footstool at Its feet, and change the whole interior of the soul and the very virtues into Divine Will. In a word, It wants Its own heaven in the depth of the soul, otherwise It would remain hindered, and would not be able to carry out Its Divine Life. So, here is the great difference which exists between the virtues and my Will - between the sanctity of one and of the other: the virtues can be of creatures and can form a human sanctity at the most; my Will is of God and can form a Sanctity which is fully divine. What a difference! However, since the creatures are used to looking down below, they are more impressed by the little lamps of the virtues, than by the great Sun of my Will.”
Vol. 19, April 9, 1926
The stairway of the virtues are well known and celebrated on the earth but there is a stairway of the gold that is of the Jesus' Life, which are hidden to all but God. Those who climb the first are stiff and poorly formed while those who take the the second become as other Jesus'. These are the ones who are all for Jesus and He becomes their very life. But on earth they will remain hidden and isolated only to be known in Heaven where it will be revealed that they are the ones who shall have accomplished the greater good for mankind.
(Jesus) showed me two high stairways, from earth up to Heaven. On one of them there were more people - very few on the other. The one on which there were only few people was of solid gold, and it seemed that those few who were going up were as many other Jesuses - each one of them was one Jesus. The other one, on which there were more people, seemed to be made of wood and one could distinguish who the people were - almost all of them short and not very developed. Jesus told me:
“My daughter, those who lived their lives in my Life ascend on the golden stairway; so I can say: ‘They are my feet, my hands, my Heart - the whole of Myself.’ As you can see, they are another Me - they are all for Me, and I am their life. Their actions are all of gold and of incalculable value, because they are divine. No one will ever be able to reach their height because they are my very Life. Almost without anyone knowing them, because they are hidden in Me, only in Heaven will they be perfectly known.
“On the wooden stairway there are more souls; these are the souls who walk along the way of the virtues, yes, but not in union with my Life and with the continuous connection of my Will. Their actions are of wood, therefore their value is minimal. These souls are short, almost scrawny, because many human purposes are mixed in with their good actions, and human purposes produce no growth. They are known to everyone, because they are not hidden in Me, but in themselves, therefore no one covers them. They will not cause any surprise for Heaven, since they were known also on earth.
“Therefore, my daughter, I want you completely in my Life, with nothing in yours, and I entrust to you the ones you know and see, that they may keep themselves strong and constant on the stairway of my Life.”
Vol. 11, November 25, 1912
do not worry about what you were told; my Mama also contained my Will as life; yet, the world continued its course in evil – in nothing did it appear to be changed. Not one external miracle was seen in Her; and yet, what She did not do in the low world She did in Heaven with Her Creator. By Her continuous living in the Divine Will, She formed the place within Herself in order to draw the Word upon earth, She changed the destiny of mankind, She performed the greatest of miracles, which no one else has done or will ever do – a unique miracle: to transport Heaven upon earth. For one who must do the greatest it is not necessary to do the lesser. And yet, who knew anything of what my Mama was doing? - what She did with the Eternal One in order to obtain the great portent of the descent of the Word into the midst of creatures? It was known only that She was the cause of it, by few at my conception, by many when they saw Me breathe my last on the cross. My daughter, the greater the good I want to do to the soul – and this good must descend for the good of the human generations and must bring Me complete glory – the more I draw her to Myself, and I make this good mature and season between the soul and Me. I segregate her from everyone, I make her ignored; and when my Will wants her to draw close to some creature, it takes all my power in order for her to submit to the sacrifice. Therefore, let your Jesus do, and calm yourself.”
Vol. 16, March 22, 1924
Only one who lives in the Divine Will can, by the power of the Divine Will, spread her act to everything and everyone. In this way she unites herself with everything and everyone and with God Himself. Recognizing each other, that is recognizing the Divine Will in each other, they are truly Father and child and this breaks the solitude that before separated them. Now they keep each other company through the eternal Divine Fiat which unites Heaven and earth.
“My daughter, you can not understand the whole value that an act done in my Divine Will contains. So much is its value, its greatness that the same creature that has done it, can not enclose it all inside of herself. It fills her and not being able to contain it it overflows outside, and races in the same immensity of the eternal Fiat. And all that which He involves and that he encloses in his immensity, the same act of the creature repeats. So that if you love, adore, bless me, thank me, you give the wide field to all created things to repeat your act, in a way that Heavens and earth, Sun and wind, seas and rivers, plants and outside, all in chorus say: ‘we love you, we adore you, we pray you’ and so on. It is as an echo, that resounds in everything and in everyone, and with his investing strength, that my Will possesses, he absorbs and makes all things undergo the same act that the creature has done in my Will. And oh, what sweet surprise, what marvelous enchantment, that an act reigns over everything and makes its act repeated by everyone. This little atom that enters in our Volition makes itself powerful over everyone and sweetly feeds its same act to everyone in order to make its Creator loved. Therefore our Supreme Being feels that the creature that enters in our Volition, moves everything, she makes her voice flow in all things, and not wanting to be alone, invests, reigns and makes all things that are invested by the Fiat say, that which she wants. Does she want love? And she makes all things say love. Does she want to adore, to bless? And all lend themselves to adore and to bless. In short, she is the commander over all the Creation, and we make her do it. It is our same Volition that wants that which she does and his same power, his empire with which she has been invested. And we delight so much in seeing the littleness of the creature flow in our immensity, and we feel the company of the creature. Because holding each other company means to recognize each other, that we are already together with her, to recognize the act that she does, its value so that she can tell us when she loves us, because when she knows more that her act is great, she gives us more, and we feel more loved, and we love her more. So that it is she alone that comes from the earth to break our solitude, and she alone the busybody that wants to move all things in order to make us loved, blessed, thanked. It is true that the other creatures are in our Divine Will, but not knowing that we are with them and for whom they work, and the value of their works, they live as strangers and as distant from us. And this is a great sorrow for us, to have children to hold them in our house, that is in our Will as if we might not have them, and not recognizing He who gives them life and loves them so much. This doesn’t happen for one who already knows that she lives in our Will. We know each other, we live as between children and Father, rather she lives in us, and we in her, and we form one Will alone.”
Vol. 31, December 6, 1932
All of God's works, both in Creation and Redemption, are done for the love of the creature so they also suffer the isolation of not being recognized, utilized and kept company. It is in revisiting all of His works and recognizing His love there for us that we repay Him for all the good He does for us.
“My daughter, our works suffer isolation if they are not recognized as works done for love of creatures, because there was no other purpose in doing so many marvelous works in the Creation, than to give them so many testimonials of love. We didn’t have any need, everything was done with an intense love for them. Now if this love of ours does not become recognized in every created thing, our works remain alone, without cortege, without honors and as set apart by creatures. So that the sky, the sun, the other created things are alone. That [which] I did in the Redemption, my works, my sufferings, my tears and all the rest are isolated. Now who forms the company to our works? One who recognizes them and turning in them finds our palpating love for her, that longs for her company in order to give and to receive love. So much so that when you turn in our Will in order to find our works and to recognize our love and putting there yours, I feel so very drawn that I almost always await you in every single work in order to enjoy your company, your cortege, and I feel as repaid for what I have done and suffered, and when you sometimes delay to come, I wait and I put myself on the look-out from within my works in order to see when you are about to come in order to enjoy your sweet company. Therefore be attentive, do not make me wait.”
Vol. 30, February 10, 1932
By living in the Divine Will and keeping company with all the works of God, all these works claim this one as their own child to be loved and cherished. So this soul possesses, by right, all the riches that they possess and they all compete in order to give to her. They all love her as a true daughter and she is never alone.
“My daughter, Our daughter, the daughter of the Celestial Mama, the daughter of the Angels and of the Saints, the daughter of the heavens, the daughter of the sun, the daughter of the stars, the daughter of the sea; in sum, you are the daughter of all - all are fathers to you, and you are a daughter to all. See how vast is the paternity! How long is your daughtership! Instead of oppressing yourself you should delight, thinking that all are fathers to you and you are a daughter to all. Only one who lives in my Will can have the right to such vast paternity and to such a long daughtership – to be loved by all with paternal love, because all recognize in her their daughter. In fact, since created things are all invested with my Will, wherever It reigns as triumphant and dominating, they see in you the same Will that reigns in them, therefore all hold you as the daughter of their wombs. There are so many bonds between you and them as to surpass in an infinite way the natural bonds that exist between father and son. Do you know who is not your father? Only those who do not let my Will reign in them; these have no right over you, nor do you have any duty toward them – they are like something that does not belong to you.
“But do you know what it means to possess such a vast paternity and such a long daughtership? It means to be bound with bonds of justice to all the riches, the glory, the honor, the privileges that such vast paternity possesses. So, as my daughter, your Jesus gives you all the goods of Redemption as gifts; as Our daughter, you are endowed with all the goods of the Sacrosanct Trinity; as daughter of the Sovereign Queen, She gives to you Her sorrows, Her works, Her love and all of Her maternal merits as gifts; as daughter of the Angels and of the Saints, they compete among themselves to give you all of their goods; as daughter of the heavens, of the stars, of the sun, of the sea and of all created things, they feel honored to finally have their daughter, to be able to give their inheritance; and my very Will reigning in them, with Its endless light forms for you the deed of all Creation, and all feel the happiness, the joy of being able to give their inheritance, because by being able to give, they no longer feel sterile, but fecund, and fecundity brings joy, company, harmony, glory, the repetition of one’s very life. How many fathers and mothers are unhappy, even though they are rich, because they have no offspring! In fact, sterility in itself brings isolation, bitterness, lack of any support and of happiness; and if it may appear that they enjoy, in their hearts they have the thorn of sterility that embitters all their enjoyments. So, your vast paternity which you possess, and your long daughtership is a cause of joy for all - and much more for my Will which, bilocating, reigns in you and constitutes you the daughter of all the things created by It, in such a way that all feel your support and the contentment of being able to give the goods they possess. Therefore, your oppression is not justified in the midst of so many goods, of so much happiness, and of so many who protect you, defend you and love you as their true daughter.”
Vol. 19, September 5, 1926
So that one who lives in the the Divine Will is never alone but is always in communion with all the acts done in the Divine Will. She feels herself loved by all of Heaven being part of the Celestial Family. However one who doesn't live in the Divine Will feels themselves separated and isolated from Heaven. So they suffer solitude and the dissimilarity of their acts from the Heavenly acts.
“My little daughter of my Volition, you should know that one who lives in my Fiat is never alone in her acts, she is incorporated in all that which he has done, does and will do, as much in herself, as in all creatures. So that I felt in the love of my Mother the love of my daughter, and in the love of the daughter, the love of my Divine Mother. Oh! How beautiful were your little drops of love, invested by the seas of love of my Mama. For one who lives in my Volition I feel Heaven flow in her acts, in her love, in her will, and I feel the creature in Heaven and her acts, her love, her will invests the Empyrean, to invade everyone and forms one act alone, one love alone and one will alone, and all Heaven feels itself loved, glorified in the creature, and she feels herself loved by all Heaven. In my Will everything is unity, inseparability doesn’t exist, nor exists distance of places, or of times, the centuries disappear in my Volition and with his power he devours everything in one single breath/[fiato], and forms one single continuous act of everything. What fortune for the one that lives in my Volition that can say: I do that which one does in Heaven, and my love is not dissimilar from their love. Only for one who doesn’t live in my Volition, her acts are separable, they suffer solitude, and are dissimilar from our acts, because not being invested by his power, that holds (the) virtue to convert into light that which one does in Him, hence not being light, they can not incorporate themselves with the acts of our Will, that being inaccessible light knows how to convert everything into light, and no wonder that light and light incorporate themselves together.”

The Divine Will is always in the midst of Her creatures that is Her children, giving them life, sustenance, amusement and every means in order to nurture Her likeness in them. But they do not even recognize Her. They ignore, offend, ridicule, and despise Her. So She is always the isolated, abandoned one. When we suffer isolation and solitude we are able to comfort and keep company with the Divine Will in Her abandonment. And what do you think will be the consolation that God will give to a soul that keeps Him company in this agonizing solitude? This is the blessing in the sorrow of solitude and those that accept this calling will have the joy of being one in the Celestial Family of God.
“Daughter of my Supreme Volition, courage in your isolation. This serves as company for my Will, abandoned by creatures. The sorrow of Its isolation – oh! how harder than yours it is. My Will is the Mother of all the wills of creatures. As most tender Mother, She left Herself in the center of Creation in order to deliver the human wills and keep them all around Herself, to raise them upon Her knees, nourish them with the milk of Her celestial teachings, and make them grow in Her likeness, giving them all Creation in which to amuse themselves. And since my Will is center of each created thing, wherever the creatures would go, She, as center of all things, would remain always near them, more than affectionate Mother, that they might never lack Her maternal cares, nor descend from Her nobility and likeness.
But, alas!, these daughters, the human wills, delivered by this Celestial Mother, my Will, despising and neglecting all Her maternal cares, Her love, Her tendernesses and attentions, even though my Will is near them - these human wills are far away from this Mother; many of them don’t even know Her; others despise Her and make fun of Her. Poor Mother, which is my Will, in the midst of so many daughters delivered by Her - She remains isolated, abandoned; and while all of them take from Her own in order to live, they use it to grow in dissimilarity from Her, and to offend Her. Can there be greater sorrow for a mother than the abandonment of her children? Not to be known by the fruit of her own womb, which, turning into enemies, offend the one who brought them to the light? Therefore, the sorrow of isolation of my Will is great and inconceivable. So, may your isolation be the company of this isolated Mother, who cries and searches for Her children; but as much as She cries, shouts, and calls Her children, whether with the most tender voices, with the most bitter tears, with the most ardent sighs, or with the most thundering voices of chastisements, these unruly children keep far away from the womb of She who generated them. My daughter, do you not want to share, as true faithful daughter of my Will, in Her sorrow and in Her isolation?”
