The King of kings

 

On the Feast of Christ the King I was reading in the Hours the Passion where Jesus prayed while He was in prison.  I've read it many times before but this was the first time this prayer struck home with me.  It was while He was completely confined and seemingly powerless that He began His true conquest to establish the dominant reign of His Kingship.

  




“Holy Father, I give You thanks for all I have suffered and for all that is left for Me to suffer.  And just as this dawn calls the day and the day makes the sun rise, so may the Dawn of Grace arise in all hearts; and as daylight rises, may I, Divine Sun, rise in all hearts and Reign over all.  Do you see these souls, O Father?  I want to answer You for all of them, for their thoughts, words, works and steps—at the cost of my Blood and death.”
The Twenty-four Hours of the Passion, Jesus in Prison





The Bible refers to Jesus as being the King of kings, the Lord of lords, but do we really understand what that means.  Before becoming familiar with the Volumes of the Divine Will written by Lusia Piccarreta I had a very different understanding of this.  I imagined Him to be the King over all nations, rulers and people in power but that is where my understanding ended.





to obey the commands of God without fault or failure until the appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ, which he will make manifest at the proper time—he who is the blessed and only ruler of all, the King of kings and the Lord of lords.  He alone is immortal and dwells in unapproachable light.  No one has seen him or is able to do so.  To him be honor and everlasting power.  Amen.
1Tim 6: 14-16



These have one design:  and their strength and power they shall deliver to the beast.  These shall fight with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them, because he is Lord of lords, and King of kings, and they that are with him are called, and elect, and faithful.
Revelation 17:13-14



And out of his mouth proceedeth a sharp two edged sword; that with it he may strike the nations.  And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness of the wrath of God the Almighty.  And he hath on his garment, and on his thigh written: KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. 
Revelation 19:15-16





Jesus tells Luisa that the Church honors Him as Christ the King.  This is the prelude to His Kingdom of the Divine Will because if He is King then He must also have His Kingdom and His worthy people.





I was thinking about today’s Feast – that is, the Feast of Christ the King; and my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:  “My daughter, the Church does nothing but intuitively grasp what She must know on my Divine Will and how Its Kingdom must come.  Therefore, this Feast is the prelude of the Kingdom of my Divine Fiat.  Indeed, the Church is doing nothing other than honoring my Humanity with those titles which, by right, are due to It; and when She has given Me all the honors that befit Me, She will move on to honor and to institute the Feast to the Kingdom of my Divine Will, by which my Humanity was animated.  The Church proceeds step by step, and now She institutes the Feast to my Heart, now She consecrates the century, in all solemnity, to Christ the Redeemer, and now She moves on, with greater solemnity, to institute the Feast to Christ the King.  Christ the King means that He must have His Kingdom, He must have peoples worthy of such a King.  And who will ever be able to form for Me this Kingdom if not my Will?  Then, yes, will I be able to say:  ‘I have my people – my Fiat has formed it for Me.’  Oh! if the leaders of the Church knew what I have manifested to you about my Divine Will, what I want to do, Its great prodigies, my yearnings, my sorrowful heartbeats, my anguishing sighs, for I want my Will to reign, to make everyone happy, to restore the human family - they would feel that in this Feast of Christ the King is nothing other than the secret echo of my Heart which, echoing in them, without their knowing it, has them institute for Me the Feast of Christ the King in order to call their attention and reflection.  ‘Christ the King…. And His true people – where are they?’  And they would say:  ‘Let us hasten to make His Divine Will known; let us let It reign, that we may give a people to Christ the King, whom we have called so.  Otherwise, we have honored Him with words, but not with facts’.”
Vol. 25, October 28, 1928






All of Creation recognized Jesus as their true and rightful King while He was on the earth because of the Divine Will reigning in Him.  They cried at His death and as He departed from the earth they returned, in mourning, to their sepulchral silence.  They wait for the day when someone, again, with the light of the Divine Will reigning within himself, as a new king, would lend them his voice to again resound in Creation and renew their feast.





“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.  It happened as to those metal instruments which, with artfulness, enclose the voice of one who speaks or sings: the instrument speaks, sings, cries, laughs, but this happens by virtue of the echo of the voice that has spoken; however, if the intelligence that produces that singing is taken away, the instrument remains mute.  More so, since I did not come upon earth for the Creation, but I came for man, and therefore everything I did – pains, prayers, moans, sighs… – I left for the good of souls as more than a new Creation.  In fact, since everything I did was done by virtue of my creative power, everything is in the act of saving man.

“In addition to this, Creation was made for man – in It he was to be the king of all created things.  But by withdrawing from my Divine Will, man lost the regime, the dominion, nor could he form laws in the Kingdom of Creation as is usual with a king when he possesses a kingdom.  In fact, having lost the unity of the light of my Will, he was no longer able to rule, he had no more strength of dominion, his laws had no value; Creation was for him like a people that rebels against the king and makes of him its laughing-stock.  And this is why my Humanity was immediately recognized by the whole Creation as Its King – because It felt in Me the strength of the union of one single Will.  But as I departed, It remained without King again, enclosed in Its silence, waiting again for someone who, in the Kingdom of my Will, would emit his voice to let It resound in it.  But do you know who she is who will put all Creation in feast once again – the one who will form Its echo and will render It speaking again?  It is you, my daughter, who will take back the dominion, the regime, in the Kingdom of my Will.  Therefore, be attentive, and let your flight in my Volition be continuous….”

Man was created to be king, before sinning Adam was such a complex of love of God that there was not one fiber that was not filled with love toward God.  Before the fall Adam felt the life of his Creator alive and palpating within his own heart and the Divine Will reigned and extended His Kingdom in him.





I arrived at the point of the Creation of man, and I thought to myself with how much love could the Lord love innocent Adam, before sinning.  And my beloved Jesus surprising me said to me:

“My daughter, love Me for how much it is possible for a creature.  He was a complex of love, not even a fiber was empty of love toward his Creator, he felt the life of his Creator alive palpating in his heart, indeed true love calls in every instant He whom it loves and giving him with its love, its life, it re-takes for its own life He whom it loves.  Now loving my Divine Will He finds Himself in the creature, he facilitates his regime, nothing opposes itself to his dominion, his noble post is as dominant King, he forms his longed for kingdom in her.  When the creature loves Me how much more she can, not one void of God can one find in her, rather with her love she encloses Me in the center of her soul, in a way that I can not go out, nor can I free myself from her, and if I might be able to go out, that which I can never do, she would come after Me, without being able neither I, nor she to separate from each other, because the love is (the) same.  Therefore who loves Me indeed can say:  I have conquered He who has created Me, I have Him inside me, I possess Him, He is all mine, no one can take Him away from me.
Vol. 33, November 24, 1935






Man was created as king in that there were no restrictions placed on him in how much he could act and grow.  Man was to be the king of Creation.  This was because man was created to be the seat and center of God's dominant and working Will where God would live in him as the King of kings.  So all of God's goal is to bring man back into his kingship in order to resume His life in him.   A life where God poured forth all His Love and bound Himself intimately with man's breath, heartbeat, motion, acts, glances to be with him and to have him with Himself indivisible forever loving each other in the eternal embrace of His Will.  All was done for Love but still some deny this love of their God.






“Behold therefore the great diversity that our Supreme Being held in creating the sky, the sun, the earth and so on, from that of creating man.  In created things he put forth an enough, in a way that they can neither grow nor decrease, although he put there all our sumptuousness, beauty and magnificence of the works gone forth from our creative hands.  Instead in creating man, having to hold our seat in him and hence our dominant and working Will, he didn’t put forth an enough; no, but he gave (man) the virtue to do a multiplicity of works, of steps, of words, one different from the other.  Our Will in man would remain impeded if it might not give him the virtue to always do new works, [making him] not subject to do one work alone, to say the same word, to move his steps over a single way.  He was created by us as king of the creation, because his Creator having to live in him, the King of the kings, it was just that he who formed the residence to our Divine Being should be the little king who should dominate the same things created by us; and he himself for our love should hold the power to do not one work alone but many works, new sciences, in order to be able to begin new things, also in order to do honor to He who lives inside him, and who holding himself back with him in familiar conversation, taught him so many beautiful things to do and to say.  Therefore our love in creating man was insuperable, but so much so that it should overwhelm all the centuries in order to give love and to ask love and to form in him the Kingdom of our Divine Will.  We don’t have other goal over creatures nor other sacrifice, if not that they do our Will and this in order to give him the right of king over himself and created things, and in order to be able to live in him, with the decorum and honor of ours, that belongs to our citadel and palace.”
Vol. 30, December 14, 1931



When in everything the Creation was completed, we created man, but before creating him listen to the story of our love toward Him.  Our adorable Majesty had established to construct man king of all the Creation, to give him the dominion over everything and to make him master over all our works, but in order to say true king with deeds, not with words, he had to possess in him(self) all that which we had scattered in the Creation.  So that in order to be king of the sky, of the sun, of the wind, of the sea and of everything, he had to possess inside of himself a Sky, a sun, and so on, in a way that the Creation should reflect in him, and he should possess the same qualities, to reflect in the Creation and to master it.  In fact, if he might not have an eye full of sight, how could he enjoy the light of the Sun and take of it when he might want some?  If he might not have feet and hands in order to cross the earth and take that which the earth produces, how could he call himself king of the earth?  If he might not have the respiratory organ in order to breathe the air, how could he make use of it?  And thus with all the rest.  Hence before creating man we looked at the whole Creation in our emphasis of love and we exclaimed:  how very beautiful are our works, but among all the most beautiful we will make man, we will centralize everything in him, in a way that we will find the Creation outside and inside of him.  And as we went molding him, thus we enclosed in him the Sky of reason, the sun of intelligence, the rapidity of the wind in the thought, the extension of the space, the fortitude, the empire in the will, the motion in the soul in which we contained the sea of graces, the celestial air of our love and all the senses of the body, as the most beautiful flowering.  Oh! Man how very beautiful you are, but not content with this we put in him the great Sun of our Will, and giving him the great gift of the word, so that he might with deeds and with words be the eloquent narrator of his Creator, it was our image with which We delighted ourselves to enrich him with our most beautiful qualities.

“But not content with of all this, we were taken with love so exuberant toward him, that our immensity involved him anywhere, everywhere, and in every instant, our omniclairvoyance looked at him in every thing and even in the fibers of his heart our Power sustained him, bringing him everywhere in our Paternal arms; our life, our motion, palpated in his heartbeat, breathed in his breath, worked in his hands, walked in his feet, and arrived to make himself footstool even under his steps; our Fatherly goodness in order to hold this dear son of ours secure, put forth (the) conditions that he could not be separated from Us, nor We from him.  What else couldn’t we do and didn’t we do?  Behold therefore we love him so much, because he cost us much, we disbursed for him our love, our power, our Will and we put in attitude our infinite Wisdom, and we didn’t want other than he might love Us, and that freely he might live in all in our Will and might recognize how much we have loved him and done for him.  These our loving pretensions, who (so) cruel will want to deny them?  But alas!  There is unfortunately some who denies them and forms there his sorrowful notes in our love.  Therefore be attentive and your flight in our Will be continuous.”
Vol. 33, August 5, 1934







God created man in order to reign in him, sustain him and keep him safe.  Man was a Kingdom of God and each new creature was to be a new Kingdom for God.  The command in the garden, to not eat of the fruit from one tree, was meant to be the sacrifice needed to be able to bind man's will with God's, giving man the right to reign, and to take possession of God's Will, power, wisdom and goodness.  With the fall of man all this ended and instead of a holy and Divine Kingdom, man raised up a kingdom of vices, miseries and disasters, setting up a throne within himself to idolize himself.  Jesus took on a Humanity, enclosing all of Creation in It, binding the human will to the Divine Will so that He might embrace all Creation and all acts in order to bind them and everyone to Himself in triumph and unity.  






“My daughter, in creating the first man I gave start to the creation of mankind; and after I formed his body, with my omnipotent breath I infused in him the soul.  And with another breath of mine, I could say, I infused Myself in the depth of man in order to sustain him, dominate him and keep him safe.  So, that man formed a kingdom for Me, in which I, as King, was to extend my boundaries.   My joy reached the summit in seeing, in this man, the generation, almost endless, of many other beings which would provide Me with as many other kingdoms for as many creatures as would come to the light, in whom I was to reign and expand my divine boundaries.   And all the good of the other kingdoms was to overflow for the glory and honor of the first kingdom, which was to be the head of the others and as though the prime act of Creation.  But as man withdrew from my Will, my kingdom and his ended; not only this, but he trampled Me, and placed himself to reign in my place, idolizing himself and forming the reign of vices, of miseries, of disasters.  My joy died at birth and turned into sorrow.  See, all evil was in his withdrawal from my Will.

Our love did not stop; I did not want to be the isolated God – no.  Therefore I wanted to descend from Heaven taking on a Humanity similar to the first man.  I enclosed all of Creation in It; I bound the human will of this Humanity to the Divine Will, so that this human will, embracing all Creation and all of their acts within the Divine Will, might bring It to my throne as triumphant over all human acts, which had been changed by it into acts of Divine Will.  With this, the human will took possession of the Divine Will, and the Divine took possession of the human – one lording over the other.  In fact, when one being forms one single thing with another being, if one is lord, the other too becomes lord as though naturally.  The only reason for which I had commanded man to abstain from the fruit prohibited by Me was this:  I wanted an act of sacrifice of his will in Mine, so that through this sacrifice, binding his human will within Mine, he might take possession of my Will, and I of his, and both might reign with the same power, wisdom and goodness.  In nothing I wanted him dissimilar from Me; he was a birth from Me - he was my son; and what father does not love that his son be rich and happy as he is?  More so for Me, Celestial Father, who would lose nothing in rendering this son of mine rich, happy and reigning like Me.

God's love overflowed in the creation of man and He gifted man with the dominion of all of Creation so that he might be king similar to Himself.  When man withdrew from the Divine Will he lost the imprint of royalty and the insignia of king but God does not change His course and He continues on to the fulfillment of His Will.  Putting everything aside He re-poured Himself out in huge waves first over one creature, the Virgin Mary.  Renewing the creation of the first man in her.  She did not reject Him but preserved the life of His Will within herself becoming Queen.  Now again He re-pours Himself over the next creature, not being satisfied with only one Queen.  He makes this one the foundation of the Kingdom of His Will in order to call the retinue of His other children who will also be kings and queens.






What a solemn time, what an unforgettable point, what ardor of love was the creation of man.  All of Our divine qualities overflowed outside and celebrated his creation; and as the fulfillment of Our feast, joy and happiness, shaken by Our own love, We looked at the machine of the whole universe and We gave him everything as gift, constituting him king of all created things, so as to be able to say, to Ourselves and to him:  ‘Dominating Kings are We - king and dominating is the work of Our hands, the dear son delivered in the outpouring of Our love.’  It would have been unseemly and not decorous for Us to make of Our son a servant dissimilar to Us in likeness and in dominion.  Would it perhaps not be unseemly and unworthy of a king to make of his son a vile servant, putting him out of his royal palace, in a poor hovel?  This king would deserve the blame of all and would be held, not as father and king, but as a tyrant.  Much more so, since Our newborn came out from within the depths of Our divine love, and therefore We wanted the decorum and the imprint of royalty in Our work.

Now, this love of Ours was broken by man; and by withdrawing from Our Divine Will, he himself removed from himself the imprint of royalty and the insignia of king.  However, on Our part nothing changed, and We persisted in Our Will of making of the work of Our hands the son king, not servant.  And therefore, in the whole history of Creation, We now come back to storm It, and to the fulfillment of Our Will, and We call one from their stock; and putting everyone aside, as if no one else existed, We renew the solemnity of the creation of the first man.  The ardor of Our love forms huge waves and makes Us see everything as love; and placing this creature in the midst of these waves, even though Our all-seeingness sees everything, We put everything aside, and with this one We renew the great prodigy of the first act of Creation.

We did so with the Sovereign Queen; and since She did not break Our love and preserved the life of Our Will within Herself, She has the title and the right of Queen.  Oh! how Our love rejoices and makes feast in seeing in Her the first Queen of the work of Our creative hands.  But Our love is not content with having only one Queen, nor was this Our Will in Creation; and therefore, pouring itself out very strongly and releasing its contained waves, our love calls this creature, and centralizes in her the whole work of Creation; it pours upon her like pouring rain, it overflows with its divine qualities, in order to have the second daughter Queen, to make her form the foundations of the Kingdom of Our Will, so as to be able to have the retinue of Our children – all kings and queens.
Vol. 23, January 13, 1928






Jesus is the Creator and Dominator of all Creation and He wants to give this dominion to the daughter who lives in the Divine Will.  As He is King He wants her to be queen and to dominate with Him in the preservation of all things.  When creatures act without Jesus it only leads to ruin and confusion, which He permits so that they may learn what happens when they act without Him.






The following day He carried me outside of myself, and made me see all created things; and not only was Jesus their Creator and Dominator, but from Him came also the life of the preservation of all things.  The current of the creative power was in continuous relations with them, and if it were missing, all things would resolve into nothing.  Then, my sweet Jesus told me:

“To the daughter of my Will I want to give supremacy over everything.  My dominion and hers must be one.  If I am King, she must be Queen; and if I gave you knowledge of everything, it is because I want that you not only know my dominions, but that you dominate with Me and concur in the preservation of all created things.  Just as my Will extends from Me over all, so do I want It to extend from you.”

Then He made me notice a point of the world from which black smoke was coming out.

And He:   “See, over there are statesmen who want to decide the lots of the kingdoms, but they do it without Me, and where I am not present, there cannot be light.  They have nothing but the smoke of their passions which blinds them more.   Therefore, they will come up with nothing good.  It will only serve them to embitter one another and cause graver consequences.  Poor peoples, led by blind and interested men!  These men will be pointed to as the laughingstock of history, good only at bringing ruin and confusion.  But, let us withdraw, let us leave them at their own mercy, that they may know what it means to do things without Me.”
Vol. 14, April 17, 1922





Jesus is King and His desire is to make His beloved ones kings similar to Himself but He must do this little by little.





You must know that I acted with you as a King who begins to love a friend, who is very dissimilar from Him in status; but His love is so great, that He has decided to make him similar to Himself.  Now, this King cannot do everything at once and render His friend like Himself; rather, He does it little by little.   First He prepares a royal palace for him, similar to His own; then He sends the adornments to adorn the royal palace.   He forms a little army for him; then He gives him half of His Kingdom, so as to be able to say:  ‘What you possess, I possess.  King am I - king are you’.  However, each time the King would give him His gifts, He would look at his faithfulness; and giving the gift would be for Him an occasion for new contentment, greater glory and honor for Himself, and a new feast.  If the King had wanted to give to his friend, all at once, that which He has given him little by little, He would have embarrassed His friend, because he was not trained to be able to dominate.  But, little by little, through his faithfulness, he has been instructed, so everything is easy for him.

“So I did with you.  Having chosen you in a special way to live in the height of my Will, I have instructed you little by little, making It known to you.   And as I kept making It known to you, I enlarged your capacity, preparing it for another greater knowledge; and every time I manifest to you one value, one effect of my Will, I feel a greater contentment, and together with Heaven I make feast.  Now, as these truths of mine go out, you double my contentments and my feasts.  Therefore, let Me do - and you, plunge yourself more into my Will.”
Vol. 13, September 2, 1921






Jesus prayed for the return of His reign, the Kingdom of the Divine Will, while He was imprisoned.  With the crowning of thorns there was multiple purposes, including the return of man's kingship.  The head rules over the body uniting it with all it's members and soul.  It directs all of it's actions.  Jesus was crowned with thorns in order to re-give to man his dominion over himself freeing him from the slavery of sin and returning to him the crown of his glory and the insignia of his kingship.  Jesus set the example for all of us that virtue and self control can only be achieved through mortification and sacrifice.  This crown also showed that Jesus is the true and only King of each of us and where He reigns there is true peace.
  





“My daughter, this crowning of thorns contains many meanings, and as much as I may speak, there is always much left to be said.  In fact, the reason why my head wanted to be honored by having, not a general share, but its distinct and special portion of suffering, and its own shedding of blood, almost competing with the body - is almost incomprehensible to the created mind.  The reason is that it is the head that unites the whole body and all of the soul, in such a way that, without the head, the body is nothing; so much so, that one can live without the other members, but it is impossible to live without the head, because it is the essential part of the whole of man.  In fact, if the body sins or does good, it is the head that directs it, since the body is nothing other than an instrument.  Therefore, since my head was to give back regime and dominion to men, and earn for them that new heavens of graces and new worlds of truths might enter the human minds, rejecting the new hells of sins because of which men reach the point of rendering themselves vile slaves of vile passions; wanting to crown the whole human family with glory, with honor and with decorum, I wanted to crown and honor my Humanity first, though with a most painful crown of thorns, symbol of the immortal crown which I was giving back to creatures, taken away by sin.  

In addition, the crown of thorns means that there is no glory and honor without thorns; that there can never be dominion over passions and acquisition of virtues without feeling oneself being pricked deep in one’s flesh and spirit, and that true reigning is in mastering oneself by the pricks of mortification and of sacrifice.

Moreover, these thorns signified that I am the true and only King, and only one who constitutes Me King of her heart enjoys peace and happiness, and I constitute her queen of my own Kingdom.   So, all those rivulets of blood which poured from my head were many little streams which bound the human intelligence to the knowledge of my sovereignty over them.”
Vol. 5, October 12, 1903






When we acknowledge Jesus as the King of kings and Lord of lords we give Him the justice which is His due and the right to reign within us directing and dominating everything.




 

...blessed Jesus came for just a little, in the act of ruling and dominating everything, and of reigning with the crown of King on His head and with the scepter of command in His hand.  While I was seeing Him in this position, He told me (though in Latin, but I will say it according to what I understood):  “My daughter, I am the Ruler of kings and the Lord of lords.  To Me alone is this right of justice due, which the creature owes Me; and by not giving it to Me, she denies Me as Creator and Master of everything.”  While saying this, He seemed to take the world in His hand and turn it upside down, so that creatures would submit to His regime and dominion.  At the same time I could also see how the Lord ruled and dominated my soul, with such mastery that I felt all submerged in Him.  From Him came the regime of my mind, of my affections, of my desires; many electric wires passed between me and Him, through which He directed and dominated everything.
Vol. 6, August 5, 1904






Jesus said that only through sacrifice and mortification can one acquire virtues and true mastery over oneself.  In His passion He subjected Himself to complete humiliation as Pilate presented Him to the people in order to make everyone understand that it is virtue alone which makes man king of himself.





“Today is the Day of the Palms in which I was proclaimed King. All must aspire to a kingdom, but in order to acquire the eternal kingdom it is necessary for the creature to acquire the regime of herself through the dominion of her passions.  The only means is suffering, because suffering is reigning; that is, through patience, man puts himself in his place, becoming king of himself and of the eternal kingdom.”
Vol. 6, April 16, 1905



“My child, come into these bound arms of Mine, place your head on My chest, and you will see pains more intense and bitter, because what you see on the outside of My Humanity is nothing but the outpouring of My Interior Pains.  Pay attention to the beats of My Heart, and you will hear that I repair for the injustices of those who command, for the oppressions against the poor and the innocents subordinated to kings, for the pride of those who, in order to preserve dignities, positions, riches, do not hesitate to break any law and to harm their neighbor, closing their eyes to the Light of Truth.  With these thorns I want to shatter the spirit of pride of their lordships; and with the holes that they form in My Head, I want to open My way into their minds, in order to reorder all things in them, according to the Light of Truth.  By remaining so humiliated before this unjust judge, I want to make everyone understand that only virtue is what constitutes man king of himself; and I teach to those who command, that virtue alone, united to upright knowledge, is worthy and capable of governing and ruling others, while all other dignities, without virtue, are dangerous and deplorable things.  My child, echo My Reparations, and continue to be attentive to My pains.”
The Twenty-four Hours of the Passion, Jesus is crowned with thorns.  Presented to the people: “Ecce Homo!”  Jesus is condemned to death.








Jesus wanted to explain to Pilate more about the truth of His Kingdom and His Kingship but Pilate didn't listen or give Him the chance.  If He had been able to Jesus wanted to tell him how one's Kingdom is not what one possesses outside of oneself but consists in what is within oneself.  Jesus' Kingdom consists of His wounds, thorns, the Cross, which are as rooms for His people to dwell inside of where they will be defended, their thirst quenched by His Blood and their hunger satisfied with His Flesh, so that only in His Kingdom is there true life.  Each person should recognize their own kingdom in each pain and suffering.  That this kingdom of theirs is eternal and divine similar to Jesus'.







when Pilate asked Me whether I was a king, I answered:  ‘My Kingdom is not of this world, for if It were of this world, millions of legions of Angels would defend Me’.  And Pilate, in seeing Me so poor, humiliated, despised, was surprised, and said with greater emphasis:  ‘What?  You are a king?’  And I, with firmness, answered him and all those who are in his position:  ‘I am King, and I have come into the world to teach the truth.  And the truth is that it is not the positions, the kingdoms, the dignities or the right of command that make man reign, that ennoble him, that raise him above all.  On the contrary, these things are slaveries, miseries, which make him serve vile passions and unjust men, while he too commits many unjust acts that disennoble him, cast him into mud, and draw the hatred of his subordinates upon him.  So, riches are slaveries, positions are swords, by which many are killed or wounded.  True reigning is virtue, the stripping of everything, to sacrifice oneself for all, to submit oneself to all.  This is the true reigning that binds all, and makes one loved by all.  Therefore, my Kingdom will have no end, while yours is near to perishing.’  And, in my Will, I made these words reach the ear of all those who are in positions of authority, to let them know the great danger they are in, and to put on guard those who aspire to positions, to dignities, to command.”

Pilate asked Me:  “Are you a king?  And where is your kingdom?”, I wanted to give another sublime lesson by saying:  “I am King”.  And I wanted to say:  “But do you know what my Kingdom is?  My Kingdom is my pains, my Blood, my virtues.  This is the true Kingdom which I possess, not outside of Me, but within Me.  What one possesses on the outside is not a true kingdom, nor a safe dominion, because that which is not inside of man can be taken away, usurped, and he will be forced to leave it.  But that which he has inside, no one will be able to take away from him - its dominion will be eternal within him.  The characteristics of my Kingdom are my wounds, the thorns, the Cross.  In It I do not act like the other kings who make their peoples live outside of them, unsafe, and eventually, even starving.  Not I - I call my peoples to dwell inside the rooms of my wounds, fortified and defended by my pains, their thirst quenched by my Blood, their hunger satisfied by my Flesh.  This alone is true reigning; all other reigns are reigns of slavery, of dangers and of death, while in my Kingdom there is true life.

How many sublime teachings, how many profound mysteries in my words.  Each soul should say to herself, in pains and in sufferings, in humiliations and in abandonments by all, and in practicing true virtues:  ‘This is my kingdom, which is not subject to perishing.  No one can take it away from me or touch it.  On the contrary, my kingdom is eternal and divine, similar to that of my sweet Jesus.  My sufferings and pains certify it for me and render the kingdom more fortified and fierce, in such a way that, in the face of my great strength, no one will be able to wage battle against me.’  This is the Kingdom of peace, to which all my children should aspire.”

Jesus is the King of sorrows who centralized everything within Himself in order to hold primacy over all.  His Mother became the first Queen of sorrows by partaking in the reverberations of Jesus' sorrows.  But it was not the sorrows themselves that made her Queen but the Divine Fiat which was braided with them, making Himself life of each act and sorrow.  She gave no resistance to God's work of placing in her pierced Heart whatever sorrow He wanted, the degree and the amount.  So it will be for those who follow this life in the Divine Fiat, they will be kings and queens where Jesus will reflect the reverberations of His sorrows and of His Life in them.  This is true dominion which gives complete glory.  The transformation of human into divine.
 





“My daughter, I was the first King of sorrows, and being Man and God, I had to centralize everything within Me in order to have primacy over everything, even over sorrows.  Those of my Mama were nothing other than the reverberations of mine which, being reflected in Her, made Her share in all my sorrows which, piercing Her, filled Her with such bitterness and pain that She felt Herself dying at each reverberation of my sorrows.  But love sustained Her and gave Her life again.  Therefore, not only for honor, but also by right of justice, She was the first Queen of the immense sea of Her sorrows.”  While He was saying this, I seemed to see my Mama in front of Jesus, and everything that Jesus contained, the sorrows and the piercings of that Most Holy Heart, were reflected in the Heart of the sorrowful Queen.  At those reflections, many swords formed in the Heart of the pierced Mama; and these swords were marked by a Fiat of light, in which She remained circumfused, in the midst of so many Fiats of most refulgent light which gave Her so much glory that there are no words to narrate it. 

Then, Jesus continued, saying:  “It was not the sorrows that constituted my Mama as Queen and made Her shine with so much glory, but it was my omnipotent Fiat, which was braided to Her every act and sorrow, and constituted Itself life of each of Her sorrows.  So, my Fiat was the first act that formed the sword, giving Her the intensity of pain that It wanted.  My Fiat could place all the sorrows It wanted in that pierced Heart, adding piercings upon piercings, pains upon pains, without a shadow of the slightest resistance.  On the contrary, She felt honored that my Fiat would constitute Itself life of even a heartbeat of Hers; and my Fiat gave Her complete glory and constituted Her true and legitimate Queen.

Now, who will be the souls in whom I can reflect the reverberations of my sorrows and of my very Life?  Those who will have my Fiat as life.  This Fiat will make them absorb my reflections, and I will be generous in sharing with them that which my Will operates in Me.  Therefore, in my Will do I await souls, to give them the true dominion and the complete glory of each act and pain that they may suffer.  The operating and suffering outside of my Will I do not recognize; I could say:  ‘I have nothing to give you; what is the will that animated you in doing and suffering this?  Get your reward from that one.’  Many times, doing good or suffering, if my Will is not present in them, can be miserable slaveries which degenerate into passions, while it is my Will alone that gives true dominion, true virtues, true glory, such as to transform the human into divine.”

Luisa's ideal is the same as Jesus'.  It is to have all of her acts proceed from, be nourished and raised by and their life formed in the Divine Will.  It took many long years of sufferings, pains and privations that were battles for her to reach this point.  It's the point where both she and Jesus are triumphant conquerors of the Kingdom of the Divine Will and although Luisa is little she will always be a queen as she is the daughter of the great King.  As such she takes possession of all of Creation, Redemption and Heaven.





“My daughter, tell Me, what about your ideal, your purpose – what is it?”  And I:  ‘My love, Jesus, my ideal is to fulfill your Will, and all my purpose is to reach the point at which no thought, word, heartbeat and work of mine may ever go out of the Kingdom of your Supreme Will; even more, in It may they be conceived, nourished, raised and form their life, and if needed, also their death, though I know that in your Will no act dies, but once it is born it lives eternally.  So, it is the Kingdom of your Will in my poor soul that I long for, and this is all my ideal and my primary and ultimate purpose.’  And Jesus, all love and making feast, added:

“My daughter, so, my ideal and yours are one, and therefore one is our purpose.  Brava, brava, the little daughter of my Will!  And since your ideal and mine are one, you too have sustained the battle of long years to conquer the Kingdom of my Will.  You had to endure pains, privations, and have been even a prisoner in your little room, bound to your little bed, to conquer that Kingdom so much wanted and longed for by Me and by you.  It cost much to both of us, and now we are both triumphant and conquerors.  So, you too are the little queen in the Kingdom of my Will, and even though little, you are always queen because you are the daughter of the great King - of our Celestial Father.  Therefore, as conqueror of a Kingdom so great, take possession of all Creation, of all Redemption and of all Heaven – everything is yours, because your rights of possession extend wherever my Will reigns as whole and permanent.  All are waiting for you to give you the honors that befit your victory.

This promise extends to us as well as Jesus states that the children of the Kingdom of the Divine Will will all be kings and queens, members of the divine family enclosing all of Creation within themselves and having the true resemblance and physiognomy of God the Father.





What a beautiful Kingdom It will be – a Kingdom of light, of infinite riches, a Kingdom of perfect sanctity and of dominion.  Our children of this Kingdom will all be kings and queens; they will all be members of the divine and royal family.  They will enclose all Creation within themselves; they will have the resemblance, the physiognomy of Our Celestial Father, and therefore will be the fulfillment of Our glory and the crown of Our head.”
Vol. 20, November 4, 1926





And in this light of the Divine Will the following Bible passage now becomes radiantly clear.





See what love
the Father has bestowed on us,
enabling us to be called the children of God,
and that is what we are.
If the world does not recognize us,
that is because it did not know him.
Beloved,
we are God’s children now.
What we shall be
has not yet been revealed.
However, we do know that when he appears
we shall be like him,
for we shall see him as he really is.
Everyone who has this hope in him
keeps himself pure,
just as he is pure.
1John 3:1-3






Now only those who have the royal blood of the Divine Will flowing within them have the inherent right to ask for the Kingdom and to aspire to the rights of king.   Those who do their own will reduce themselves to the level of servants.






My daughter, who can aspire to have the right to be king, if not a son of king?  Even more, everyone sees in him the right that the kingdom will be his.  But if they see a servant, a peasant, aspiring to it, who does not belong to the royal family and says that he has the right to be king and that the kingdom will be his, this one is considered insane and he deserves all mockeries.  In the same way, one who wanted to ask for my Kingdom, but my Holy Will did not reign in him, being in the condition of a servant, does not have the right to ask for my Kingdom.  And if he asks for It, it is without right, and a simple way of speaking.  Now, suppose that a king had, as his children, hundreds – thousands of children, all belonging, legitimately, to his royal family.  Do all of them not have the right to occupy noble positions - not unseemly to their status; and to say:  ‘The kingdom of our father is our kingdom, because we carry his royal blood in our veins’?  Now, in all Creation, in the children who will belong to the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat, will flow, more than blood, the life of It, which will give them the right to belong to the royal and celestial family, in such a way that all will be kings and queens – all will occupy noble positions, worthy of the family to which they belong.

Therefore, created things have more right that the Kingdom of my Will come - because they are all daughters of Heaven, and are the acts of my very Will which asks for It in them – than creatures themselves who, by doing their will, have reduced themselves to the condition of servants.  Therefore, when you, in the name of the heavens, of the sun, of the sea and of all other created things, ask for the coming of the Kingdom of my Eternal Fiat, you force my Will Itself to ask for the coming of Its Kingdom.  And do you think it is nothing that a Divine Will prays in each created thing, as you impetrate Its Kingdom?  Therefore, continue and never draw back.  Even more, you must know that it is my Will Itself that puts you on the way in all Creation, to have Its daughter together with It in all of Its acts - to make you do what It does and wants from you.”
Vol. 20, February 11, 1927






One who lives in the Divine Will has the status of queen and she lives in the royal palace of the Divine Will with the King.  All the goods of Creation are hers and all the acts done in Redemption serve as ornament, joys and happiness to her.  If one does not live in the Divine Will they exist only as servants and Redemption serves merely as remedies for them.






“My daughter, one who lives in my Divine Will does not descend from her origin; and since everything was created for those who would live in It, all the goods of Creation are hers, which are more extensive than the goods of Redemption.  In fact, to one who maintains herself in the state of origin by living in the Supreme Fiat, is due the state of queen, and, as queen, it befits her to possess.  More so, since she is a queen who lives in the royal palace of Our Will, and therefore it befits her to possess kingdoms, suns, heavens, seas, and that the King Himself live life together with her, making His queen happy, as she makes her King happy.  This is why the goods of Creation were to be more extensive; otherwise, how could hers be the state of queen, if she did not have dominion, and kingdoms to dominate?  On the other hand, by not living in Our Divine Will, the soul descends from her origin, she dis-ennobles herself and places herself in the state of servant, therefore no kingdoms or empires befit her.  More so since, in Redemption, I came upon earth in order to resurrect man from the state of death, to heal him, to give him all possible remedies, to make him return to the first state of his origin, knowing that if he returned into Our Will, from which he came, he would already be prepared to be maintained in the royal state of dominant.  Even more, you must know that for those who live or will live in It, the acts which I did in Redemption will serve not as remedies, but as happiness, as joy, and as the most beautiful ornament in the royal palace of my Will.  In fact, everything I did was nothing but a birth from It; Its merciful womb delivered for Me, onto the lap of my Humanity, all the acts I did in coming upon earth; therefore, it is right that, as things which belong to It, they serve as ornament for Itself.  So, in everything I did while being on earth, if I prayed, if I spoke, if I suffered, if I blessed the children, I kept tracing my children - the children of my Divine Will, to give to them the first act, the things which belonged to them, the happiness which they contained; and then I gave them as remedy, for their salvation, to the unfortunate children of sin, servants of the human will.  Therefore, all of my acts ran, as first act, to those who would live in the Supreme Volition, as to their center of life.  So, one who lives in It can say:  ‘Everything is mine’.  And I say:  ‘Everything is yours’."
Vol. 23, November 6, 1927







God's Will will not be complete in It's glory until  It will have the first place of honor and be recognized in all things.  Then creatures will let the Divine Will reign in all their acts and It  will reign as absolute Queen and dominating King - then will it be complete.   All creatures and all of their acts should be under the reign of the Divine Will.  Instead creatures deny Him the first place in their acts and place vile acts ahead of Him, suffocating and destroying His Divine lives.  All the good of Redemption is not enough to repay God for His lost lives and glory because man has not yet returned into the Kingdom of the Divine Will allowing Him to reign in His creatures.  Everything we have and can do has been given to us by God.  Everything is His by right and yet people ignore Him and even use His gifts to defraud Him and dishonor Him.




 

...until my Will is known and has Its first place of honor and of dominion in each being that has come out of Our creative hands, Its glory will always be incomplete.  The reason is most clear.  In fact, Our prime purpose in Creation was that, as We released from Us this Supreme Will which, being bilocated in all Creation, extended everywhere – in the heavens, in the sun, in the sea, in the flower, in the plants, even in the earth, and in each being come out of Our creative hands – constituting Itself life of everything in order to form Its life in each being, and bilocating Itself in each creature, It might have as many of Its lives and kingdoms to dominate, for as many creatures as would come out to the light.

Now, my Will has not withdrawn – there is not one point to which Its Divine Life does not extend; there is not one creature which is not invested by this Supreme Will.  But while It extends everywhere and invests everything and everyone, It cannot form Its Life.  How many Divine Lives are suffocated in creatures; how many deny to It the first place in their acts; how many place It after unworthy and vile acts, denying Its dominion to It.  And do you think that the destruction of so many Divine Lives of this Will of Mine in creatures is something trivial? …of so many of Its acts, noble and sublime, which It feels as being destroyed, while they use It to form human lives, deplorable lives, monsters that will serve for hell?  And do you think this is trivial, my daughter?  The detriment that Our glory receives on the part of Creation is great and incalculable, such that not even all the good of Redemption could repay Us, because even with Redemption man has not come back into the unity of Our Will, nor does It reign fully in the creatures.  How many lives, which are said to be good, holy, are halved between Divine Will and human will.  Therefore, Our glory in the Creation is not complete; and only when the things created by Us will serve Our own Will as well as those who will give It the first place of honor, will recognize It in all things, and letting It reign in all their acts, will constitute It absolute Queen and dominating King - then will it be complete.

Don’t you think it is just, and a right, that since everything belongs to my Will and since my Will is everywhere and is, for all, primary life of everything, all would recognize It and all would become Divine Will, since they all belong to It?  Imagine a king who had his kingdom; all lands, villas and cities are his exclusive property.  There is nothing which does not belong to him – not only by the right that the kingdom is his, but also by the right of property that they belong to him.  Now, because of his goodness of heart, this king wants to see his people happy, and so he distributes his farms, his villas, his lands to his people for free, giving them even housing in his cities, in such a way that all can be rich, with abundance, each one in his own condition.  And he does all this great good to his people for the sole purpose that they would recognize him as their king, giving him absolute dominion, and recognizing that the lands occupied by them have been given to them for free by the king, that he might be glorified, recognized and loved for the good he has done to them.  Now, this people, ungrateful, does not recognize him as its king, and it claims the right of property over the lands which it possesses, denying that they were gifts given by the king.  Would this king, then, not be defrauded in the glory of the good he has done to his people?  And if you add that they use his lands without benefit for themselves – some do not work them, some remove from them the most beautiful plantations, some render the most pleasant gardens squalid, in such a way as to procure for themselves their own unhappiness and misery – all this would add dishonor and a sorrow that no one could soothe, to the detriment of the glory of the king.

This is nothing but the mere shadow of what my Supreme Will has done, and still does. No one has given Us a cent for receiving the good of the sun, of the sea, of the earth; rather, We gave them everything for free, and only to make them happy, and so that they would recognize my Supreme Fiat, which loved them so much and wants nothing but love and dominion. Now, who could repay that king for the detriment of the glory which his people have not given him, and soothe his intense sorrow? Suppose, again, that someone from that same people, investing himself with the just sorrow of his king and wanting to repay him of his glory, begins, at first, to renovate the land he occupies, in such a way as to make of it the most beautiful and pleasant garden of the kingdom. Then he says to everyone that his garden is a gift that the king has given him because he loves him; and then he calls the king into his garden and says to him: ‘These are your dominions – it is right that they be all at your disposal.’ The king is pleased with this loyalty, and says: ‘I want that you be king together with me, and that we reign together.’ Oh! how he feels his glory being restored, and his sorrow soothed by this one member of his people. But this man does not stop; he covers all the paths of the kingdom, and stirring everyone with his speaking, he calls a good handful of people to imitate him, and forms the loyal people which give the right of dominion to their king. And the king feels restored in his glory and, as reward, he gives them the title of children of his, and says to them: ‘My kingdom is yours – reign, children of mine.’

This is my purpose – that in my Kingdom there be no servants, but my children, and kings like Me. This will happen with my Divine Will. Oh! how It awaits to be given back Its complete glory in the Creation; and that it be recognized that everything belongs to It, so as to be able to say: ‘Everything is yours – let us reign together.’ How It awaits for Its knowledges on the Supreme Fiat to cover the paths in order to stir, to call - to press creatures to come into my Kingdom, so as to form my true children, to whom I can give the title of kings. This is why I have so much interest that these manifestations on my Divine Will be known – because this is about my greatest act, which is the fulfillment of my glory and the complete good of creatures.”
Vol. 20, February 13, 1927






For those who live in the Divine Will, Jesus the King of Heaven, will keep them secure and in peace even in the midst of dangers and the fiercest enemies.  He will keep them in the same condition as the Blessed in Heaven who live completely in His Will, except those on earth will give Jesus shelter from all the offenses from creatures and these creatures will also be able to give to the others all of Jesus' sufferings, Blood, wounds, thorns and merits for their salvation.






“My daughter, courage.  It is true that great will be the tragedy, but know that I will have regard for the souls who live of my Will, and for the places where these souls live.  Just as the kings of the earth have their courts, their quarters, in which they keep safe in the midst of dangers and of the fiercest enemies – because the strength they have is so great that their very enemies, while they destroy other places, do not even look at that point for fear of being defeated - in the same way, I too, King of Heaven, have my quarters, my courts upon earth.  These are the souls who live in my Volition, in whom I live; and the court of Heaven crowds round them.  The strength of my Will keeps them safe, rendering the bullets cold, and driving back the fiercest enemies.

“My daughter, why do the Blessed themselves remain safe and fully happy even when they see that creatures suffer and that the earth is in flames?  Precisely because they live completely in my Will.  Know that I put the souls who live completely of my Will on earth in the same condition as the Blessed.  Therefore, live in my Will and fear nothing.  Even more, in these times of human carnage, I want you not only to live in my Will, but to live also among your brothers - between Me and them.  You will hold Me tightly within yourself, sheltered from the offenses that creatures send Me; and as I give you my Humanity and what I suffered as gift, while keeping Me sheltered, you will give to your brothers my Blood, my wounds, my thorns and my merits for their salvation.”
Vol. 11, May 18, 1915






Life and sanctity consists in two acts, giving and receiving, in God giving his Will and the creature receiving it.  God's Will is life and the repetition of the acts of man in re-giving it back to God forms his sanctity.  God establishes His Kingdom and all the attributes of the creature revolve around the commands of the Divine Fiat, their King, who rules with love.  And when all the interior of the creature is filled He goes on to overflow outside of her so that all can see the banner of His Fiat going forth.  So His Kingdom is first form within man and then flows outwards.






“My daughter, life, sanctity consists in two acts:  God gives his Will and the creature receives him, and afterwards the life has been formed in herself with that act of Divine Will that she has received, to re-give it as act of her will, in order to receive it again, and to give and to receive, and to receive and to give, in this is everything.  God could not give more of his continuous act of his Will to the creature; the creature could not give more to God, for as much as it is possible for (the) creature, his Divine Will received in her as formation of divine life.  In this way, to give and to receive, to receive and to give, my Divine Fiat takes dominion and forms his kingdom there, and all the interior of the creature forms as the people of the kingdom of the Divine Will, the intelligence, faithful people that glories with being directed by the Sovereign Commander of the Divine Fiat, and the crowd of thoughts that press around and aspire to know always more and to love the great King, who takes a seat as enthroned in the center of the intelligence of the creature.  The desires, the affections, the heartbeats that issue forth from the heart, augment the number of the people of my kingdom, and oh! how they crowd around his throne, they are all at attention in order to receive the divine orders and even to put forth (their) life in order to execute them; what an obedient, ordered people, are the people of the kingdom of my Fiat, there are no contentions, no dissensions, but this entire crowd of people of the interior of this fortunate creature want one thing alone, and as a trained army they put themselves in the fortress of the kingdom of my Divine Volition.  Whence when the interior of the creature becomes all my people, he emerges outside from the interior and augments the people of words, the people of works, of steps, it can be said that every act that this Celestial people forms contains the word, the written order in gold characters:  ‘Will of God.’  And when this crowd of people move in order to exercise each their office, they put forth the flag with the motto ‘Fiat’, followed by the words written with living light:  ‘We belong to the Great King of the Supreme Fiat.’  You see therefore, every creature that lets herself be dominated by my Volition forms a people for the kingdom of God.”
Vol. 29, October 26, 1931





The knowledges on the Divine Will instruct the creature giving her divine science and reason so that it is just that the Divine Will comes to reign and act as prime life in her soul and she arrives to receive the state of divine royalty, becoming the daughter of the Great King.  In this the Divine Will has conquered the the human will and the human has conquered the Divine.  But none of this can happen without the knowledges.





Now the knowledges on my Divine Will instruct the human volition and she acquires science and reason, that not only is it justice to let him reign and dominate as primary life in her soul, but it is the highest good that she receives, honor and great glory that this Holy Volition, with dominating, arrives to give her the state of divine royalty, because she feels herself daughter of the Great King, hence the royalty is also her property.  When the creature has arrived to understand all this by way of knowledges and lessons that my Divine Volition has made for her, everything is done.  My Will has conquered the human volition, and the human volition has conquered the Divine Will.  The knowledges on Him are so very necessary, that they serve to desiccate the bad humors, and they substitute (it with) the holy humors, they are as Sun that darts the human volition, and they communicate his life, his sanctity and the ardent desire to possess the good that he knows.  Therefore be attentive to listen to his lessons and correspond to such good.”
Vol. 32, May 28, 1933







The Divine Fiat, the word of God, is King and all His knowledges are the army while the acts done by the creature who would live in His Kingdom are the weapons which will overcome the human will.  Each different knowledge produces different weapons; light, power, beauty, wisdom, love, strength.  Each will oppose a human act in order to give rise to the Divine.  The Heavenly army anxiously awaits the weapons it needs in order to wage war against the kingdom of the human will and to build the Kingdom of the Divine Will.  All of this is to realize the only purpose for which man was created, that man return into the inheritance of the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat, which he first rejected from God.  This has always been God's primary purpose throughout all His work and all generations so much so that Jesus says to Luisa:  "Therefore, in what I did and suffered, I put a mark and I said:  ‘Here I shall wait for the children of my Will; I shall embrace them, we shall love one another with one single love, with one single Will.’  And for love of them, my pains, my tears, my steps, my works, changed for Me into refreshment, into joy for my Heart drowned with love.""






Look, what an orderly, formidable and large army, such that, as it lines up within your soul, it will not be easy for you to get out.  But do you know what this army is?  All the knowledges about my Divine Will.  In fact, having formed Its Royal Palace in you, It could not, nor was it decorous for It to remain without Its army.  This army We have issued from Our divine womb in order for them to form the cortege, to defend and to all stand at attention, so as to make known to all who Our Fiat is – their Divine King – and how It wants to descend with Its whole celestial army into the midst of the peoples in order to fight the human will; but not with weapons that kill, because in Heaven there aren’t these deadly weapons, but with weapons of light, which fight in order to form the Life of my Will in the creatures.  Now, you must know that the weapons of this army are the acts done in my Divine Will.  Look how beautiful it is!  The Royal Palace is the Light of my Fiat!  The King that dominates is my Will!  The Ministry, the Sacrosanct Trinity; the army, the knowledges about It; the weapons, your acts done in It.  In fact, as you would have the good of knowing one of the knowledges about It, and would operate by virtue of It, you would form, in my Fiat, the weapons in the hands of each knowledge, so as to give the life of it to other creatures.

But this is not all yet.  Each knowledge possesses a different weapon, one different from the other.  So, each knowledge I have given you about my Divine Will possesses a special and distinct weapon: one possesses the weapon of Light in order to illuminate, warm and fecundate the seed of my Fiat; another possesses the weapon of the conquering Power that dominates and rules; another, the weapon of the Beauty that enraptures and conquers; another, the weapon of the Wisdom that orders and disposes; another, the weapon of the Love that burns, transforms and consumes; another, the weapon of the Strength that knocks down, makes one die and rise again in my Divine Volition.  In sum, each knowledge of mine is a divine soldier which, manifesting itself to your soul, has let the weapon of each of the offices they possess be placed by you into its hands.  Look at what order they have, how attentive they are to their office, and to handling the weapon which each of them possesses in order to dispose and form the people of the Kingdom of my Divine Fiat.  This army and these weapons possess the prodigious virtue of the infinite, which is such that they diffuse everywhere; and wherever there is a light, even small, in the creatures, they fight with weapons of Light against the darkness of the human will, to eclipse it and give it the Life of my Fiat; and wherever there is a seed of power or of strength, there runs the divine little soldier with its weapon of Power and of Strength, to fight the human power and strength, and make the Power and Strength of my Divine Will rise again.  For all human acts this army has the opposite weapon with which to fight them, so as to make the act of my Divine Will rise again over the human act.

Therefore, my daughter, it is necessary that you remain in my Divine Will in order to form sufficient weapons with your acts done in It, for the great army of Its knowledges.  If you knew how this army anxiously awaits the weapons of your acts into their hands, in order to wage war on and destroy the poor kingdom of the human will, and to build Our Kingdom of Light, of Sanctity and of happiness!  More so, since I am within you, in the great Royal Palace of my Divine Will, in the midst of my army, with the continuous council of the Ministry of the Divine Persons, as the reproducer of Our works; because We are the operating Being, and wherever We are present We want to operate always, without ever ceasing.  Therefore, it is a necessity that you remain always in Our Fiat, to unite yourself to Us in Our continuous operating, and to give Us the field to always operate within you.  In fact, the sign of the divine operating is precisely this:  to operate always – always, without ever ceasing.”

After this, He kept silent. Then, with a more tender emphasis, He added:  “My daughter, if you knew the ardor of my love that I feel, because I want to establish the Kingdom of my Divine Will upon earth, so as to realize the only purpose for which man was created.  In fact, in everything that has been done by the Divine Persons, from the time when the world was created, and in what We will do, Our principle will always be that one, nor will We ever cease it: that man return into the inheritance of the Kingdom of Our Fiat, which he rejected from Us.  This is so true, that in my very Incarnation, when I descended from Heaven to earth, the first purpose was the Kingdom of my Divine Will; it is into Its Kingdom – that is, in my Immaculate Mother who possessed It - that I directed my first steps; my first dwelling was within Her most pure womb, in which my Fiat held Its absolute dominion and Its Kingdom, whole and beautiful.  And in this Kingdom of my Will which my Celestial Mama possessed, I began and I formed my life down here – made of pains, of tears and of expiations.  I knew that I was to be the Jesus neglected, unloved, nor sought for, but I wanted to come because I could see through the centuries how my coming upon earth was to serve to form the Kingdom of my Divine Will and, by necessity, I was to redeem them first in order to obtain my first purpose.  And so, even from that time, I descended from Heaven in order to come to find, to search for and to clasp to my breast the children of my Kingdom, who would search for Me, love Me, recognize Me, to the point of being unable to be without Me.  Therefore, in what I did and suffered, I put a mark and I said:  ‘Here I shall wait for the children of my Will; I shall embrace them, we shall love one another with one single love, with one single Will.’  And for love of them, my pains, my tears, my steps, my works, changed for Me into refreshment, into joy for my Heart drowned with love.
Vol. 26, May 16, 1929





Jesus greatly wants the people of His Divine Will and as long as they firmly accept this calling He will give them every good and they will be kings of themselves living life together with their Creator.  Living in the Fiat they will enjoy full day and be able to receive always new graces, love and joys.  They will be His throne of light where He will reign as dominant King and all His acts will court this soul and will act as defense, help and food for them.




 “Behold therefore so much is my love that I want that one live in my Will that at whatever cost, although there might be needed continuous miracles I will do them. But have you noticed my tenderness, my strong love? that having missed her course I don’t reproach her, I don’t say anything to her and if I see that she notices that she has missed it I encourage her, I commiserate her in order to not put mistrust in her and all goodness I say to her: Don’t fear, I have supplied for you and you will be more attentive, isn’t (this) true? And she seeing my goodness loves me more. I know what I must give of mine, in order to have that the creature might live in my Will, and therefore I will do as a king, that greatly loves that his kingdom be populated. He makes it (known) to the whole world, that whoever wants to (can) come into his kingdom and he wants it known, in order to send them money for the trip, that he will make them find a residence at their disposition, attire and abundant foods, the king promises to give to them such riches, as to make them rich and happy; so much will be the goodness of this king, that he will have life together with the people, that he loves so much that with his riches he has ransomed them from the miseries and unhappiness of life.

Such am I, I will make known to the entire world, that I want the people of my Divine Volition, and provided that they give me their name and they will make me know that they want to come into my kingdom, I will give them all the goods, unhappinesses won’t have a place in her, each one will possess her kingdom, she will be king of herself, and they will have life together with their Creator.  I will show off so much in giving, that everyone will remain enraptured by it.  My daughter, oh! how I long for it, this living of the creature in my Will, and pray and yearn together with me for it and it (will) be sweet for you to put forth (your) life for a kingdom so holy.
Vol. 34, June 6, 1937





“So much is my desire, that the soul live in my Volition, my anxieties, my ardent sighs, that go repeating to the ears of the heart:  ‘Oh, content me, do not make me yearn anymore; if you will live in my Fiat, the night will cease for you, you will enjoy the full day, rather every act done in him will be a new day, carrier of new graces, of new love and unexpected joys, all the virtues will celebrate you, they will hold their place of honor as so many princesses that will court your Jesus and your soul.  You will form (for) me in you my throne of the most refulgent light, where I will dominate as dominant King in which I have formed my kingdom and with all liberty I will dominate all your being, even your breath.  All my works will court you, my sufferings, my steps, my love, my strength itself they will serve you as defense, as help and as food; there is no thing and what won’t I give you if you live in my Will.’
Vol. 36, May 27, 1938





The Celestial Mama is also waiting and longing for the Kingdom of the Divine Will upon the earth where there will be other royal souls who acquire the rights of queen.  These souls will live in the royal palace and acquire the noble manners and the divine science befitting royalty.  No one will equal them and the Celestial Queen will no longer be alone.





the Celestial Mama wants, desires - awaits the Kingdom of the Divine Will upon earth, in which there will be the souls who, by living in It, will form their life in the prime act of God, and will acquire the royalty and the right of queens.  All will see, impressed in them, an indelible character that they are the daughters of the Divine King, and, as daughters, to them is due the title and the right of queens.  These souls will have their dwelling in the divine royal palace, therefore they will acquire nobility of manners, of works, of steps, of words; they will possess such science, that no one will be able to equal them; they will be invested with such light, that the light itself will announce to all that here is a queen who has lived in the royal palace of my Will.  And so, the Sovereign Queen will no longer be alone in Her royal throne; She will have the other queens who will surround Her; Her beauty will be reflected in them; Her glory and greatness will find the ones in whom it can pour itself.  Oh! how honored and glorified She will feel.  Therefore, She desires those who want to live in the Divine Fiat, in order to Herself form the queens in the prime act of It, so as to be able to have, in the Celestial Fatherland, the retinue of the other queens who will surround Her and will give Her the honors due to Her.”
Vol. 23, January 18, 1928







The Divine Will has carried, within His bosom of eternity, all those who are to live in the Divine Will.  They are bound in the Fiat, inseparable from the Word.  They form His people, His children, His army, His living palace where He reigns as true King.  They were conceived with Jesus, cried with Him, did what He did, walked, worked, prayed, suffered, died and re-arose to new life with Him.  Only because of the cortege of these children did Jesus descend.  God knows their number and their names and He longs for the day in time in which each will be brought forth to the light of the Divine Will.  So these children have in their command all the acts of Jesus to use as they will, to multiply as they will, because they have always been with Him and their will is united to the Divine and their love will seal all of Creation and all of God's works.






“My blessed daughter, one who lives in my Will remains always inseparable from her Creator; even from eternity she was already with us, our Divine Volition carried her there in (our) arms in our bosom and made us love, court and enjoy her, and since that time we felt her love palpitating in us, and it called us to the work of our creative hands, in order to make of her one of our most beautiful images.  Oh, how we enjoyed in finding in our Will, in one who could develop our creative work!  Now you must know that these souls that live, and will live in my Fiat, being inseparable from us, when I, eternal Word, in the excess of my love, descended from heaven to earth, they descended together with me, and headed by the Celestial Queen, they formed my people, my faithful army, my living palace in which I constituted myself true King of these children of my Divine Volition.  To descend from heaven without the cortege of my people, without (a) kingdom where I might be able to dominate with my laws of love, I would never have done it.

“For us all the centuries are as a sole point, in which everything is ours, we find everything as in act, therefore I descended from heaven as dominator and King of my children, I saw myself courted and loved as we know how to love ourselves, and my love was so much that I made them remain conceived together with me; to be without them was impossible to me, to not find my children that might love me, I would not have been able to tolerate it, therefore they had life together in the bosom of my Sovereign Mama, they were reborn together with me, they cried together with me, that which I did they did; walked, worked, prayed, suffered together, and I can say that also upon the cross they were with me, in order to die and in order to re-arise to the new life that I came to bring to the human generations.

“Therefore the kingdom of our Will is already established; we know their number, we know who they are, their names; already he makes us feel them palpitating ardently with love; oh, how we love them and yearn that the time arrive to bring them forth to the light of day in our same Will upon the earth!

“Hence the children of my Volition have in their power my conception, my birth, my steps, my sufferings, my tears, and how many times they will want to be conceived, be reborn, so many times will they be able; they will feel my steps, my sufferings in theirs, because in my Will, my life my birth repeats itself is renewed in every instant, they can take it for themselves, they can give it to the others, to do that which they want, knowing that they will never do that which I don’t want.  These children of ours reborn, grown, formed, fed by our Volition, will be the true glory of our creation that will crown our creative work, and there they will put the seal of their love in every single thing created by him who has done everything for them and whom has loved them so much.”
Fiat!!!
Vol. 36, May 6, 1938





So to think of Jesus as the King of kings solely as King over nations, rulers and peoples is extremely limited.  We were each created to be a king, over ourselves and Creation and more so by living in the Divine Will He allows us to even conquer Himself al the while He conquers us.  It a mystery that is Divine and is this way Jesus is King of kings, as a work, reign and Kingdom truly worthy of God.  How blessed are those whose names have been written on His heart to live in His Will.

What is Truth?






When I was young it seemed so easy to know what was true, what was right and what was wrong.   In today's world there is deception everywhere even where one thinks it would not be possible.  So I want to review this topic so that truth can be known clearly because Jesus frequently speaks on this in the Volumes.  When Pilate asked Jesus, "What is truth?"  Jesus was ready to answer but was not given the chance.  All of Jesus is truth and it can be witnessed in everything He is, says and does.





I was following the Hours of the Passion of my sweet Jesus, especially when He was presented to Pilate, who asked Him what His Kingdom was.  And my always lovable Jesus told me:  “My daughter, that was the first time in my terrestrial Life that I dealt with a gentile authority, who asked Me what my Kingdom was.  And I answered him that my Kingdom is not of this world, for if it were of this world, thousands of legions of Angels would defend Me.  But with this, I opened my Kingdom to the gentiles, and communicated my celestial doctrines to them; so much so, that Pilate asked me:  ‘What? You are a king?’  And immediately I answered him:  ‘I am King, and I have come into the world to teach the truth.’  With this, I wanted to make my way into his mind in order to make Myself known; so much so that, touched, he asked Me:  ‘What is the truth?’  But he did not wait for my answer; I did not have the good of making Myself understood.  I would have said to him:  ‘I am the truth; everything is truth in Me.  Truth is my patience in the midst of so many insults; truth is my sweet gaze among so many derisions, slanders, contempts.  Truths are my gentle and attractive manners in the midst of so many enemies, who hate Me while I love them, and who want to give Me death, while I want to embrace them and give them Life.  Truths are my words, full of dignity and of celestial wisdom - everything is truth in Me.  The truth is more than majestic sun which, as much as one may want to trample upon it, rises more beautiful and bright, to the point of shaming its very enemies, and of knocking them down at its feet.

Pilate asked Me with sincerity of heart, and I was ready to answer.  Herod, rather, asked Me with malice and curiosity, and I did not answer.  So, to those who want to know holy things with sincerity, I reveal Myself more than they expect; but with those who want to know them with malice and curiosity, I hide Myself, and while they want to make fun of Me, I confound them and make fun of them.  However, since my Person carried the truth with Itself, It performed Its office also in front of Herod.  My silence at the stormy questions of Herod, my humble gaze, the air of my Person, all full of sweetness, of dignity and of nobility, were all truths - and operating truths.”

Vol. 14, June 1, 1922







Although Jesus would have spoken to Pilate He remained silent before Herod because Herod had no real desire to know the truth.  Herod only wanted to make a fool of Jesus.  If Jesus had answered him the truth would have made a fool of Herod so He remained silent.





 “My daughter, Herod did not question Me in order to know the truth, but out of curiosity and to make a fool of Me; and if I had answered, I would have made a fool of him, because when the will to know the truth and to execute it is missing, the humor in order to receive the heat which the light of my truths brings with itself, is missing in the soul.  Not finding the humidity in order to make the truths germinate and fecundate, this heat burns even more, and makes the good it can produce wither.  It happens as to the sun:  when it does not find humidity on the plants, its heat serves to wither and burn the life of the plants; but if it finds humidity, it makes prodigies.  So, the truth is beautiful, it is lovable, it is the reviver and the fecundator of souls; with its light and heat it forms prodigies of development, of graces and of sanctity – but for those who love to know it in order to execute it.  On the other hand, with those who do not love to execute it, it is the truth that mocks them, rather than remaining mocked itself.”
Vol. 20, January 4, 1927






When one wants to know a truth and desires it, it is like the appetite that prepares the soul, disposing the intelligence to understand it, the memory to remember it.   This moves God to give it to the soul, making the truth known to her because the soul will be satisfied and content with receiving it and God will never do a useless act.  Without the desire of the good the soul would only be nauseated and disgusted by it.  So that those who do not long for the truths of God will instead loose what little they might have.  This is the meaning in the Gospel: Matt 25:29   "... to all those who have, more will be given, and they will have an abundance; but from those who have nothing, even what they have will be taken away."







Because you should know that He holds a longing, an ardent desire to always want to work, but he goes finding one who wants to listen and one who wants to receive his creative virtue, in order not to expose his works to uselessness, and in order to be secure he goes finding his same Will in the soul, and finding him he finds his works guaranteed by his same Divine Fiat, therefore he does not spare anything and he makes for you the most beautiful works and the greatest prodigies. Oh, Power of my omnipotent Volition, if everyone might know you, they might love you and might let you reign, earth would be changed into Heaven!”
Vol. 29, August 22, 1931






“My daughter, the desire for a good, for knowing it, purges the soul and disposes her intelligence to comprehend it, her memory to remember it; her will feels its appetite for it being whet, to make of it its food and life; and it moves God to give her that good and to make it known.  So, the desire for a good, for knowing it, is like the appetite for food.  When there is appetite, one feels the taste, eats with pleasure, remains satisfied and content with having taken that food, and is left with the desire to enjoy it again.  On the other hand, if there is no appetite, that same food which is enjoyed so eagerly by someone, causes nausea and disgust to someone else who has no appetite, and he may reach the point of suffering because of it.  Such is the desire for the soul - it is like appetite; and in seeing that the desire for my things is her delight, to the point of making of them her food and life, I abound – I abound so much in giving, that I never tire of giving.  On the other hand, one who does not desire them, because the appetite is missing, will feel nausea for my things, and that Gospel saying will be repeated:  ‘It will be given to one who has, while one who does not desire my goods, my truths, celestial things, will be deprived of the little he has’.  Just penalty for one who does not desire, has no appetite for, and wants to know nothing about the things that belong to Me.  And if he has any little thing at all, it is right that it be taken away from him and be given to those who possess much.”

Vol. 19, September 3, 1926







Jesus states that He is the way, the truth and the life.  The one flows into the other and from them proceeds life.  So here we find another image of the Holy Trinity and Jesus explains how he is the living truth that leads to the Father.  To manifest a truth to the creature is to give Himself  to the creature and in giving Himself He binds the creature more and more to God with a greater happiness, because truth/Jesus belongs to God and God is life.  God wants to give and give in abundance but He is limited by man's capacity, his desire and response to His gifts.





4 And you know the way to the place where I am going.” 5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you know me, you will know my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.”
John 14: 4-7




Jesus is light, and light is truth.
As I was in my usual state, blessed Jesus made Himself seen all light, and said these simple words:  “I am light - but what is light made of?  What is the principle of it?  It is truth.  So, I am light because I am truth.  Therefore, in order for the soul to be light and to have light in all of her actions, these must come from truth.  Wherever there is artifice, deception and duplicity, there cannot be light - but darkness.”  And He disappeared like a flash.
Vol. 8, September 3, 1908




“Listen:  my Being is led by an irresistible force to communicate Itself to the creature.  I have yet many more things to tell you - many more truths which you do not know.  All of my truths carry the happiness that each one contains, and as many truths as the soul knows, so many different happinesses she acquires.
Vol. 13, January 5, 1922




"...do you want to know what are our most beautiful gifts that we make the creature?  To manifest to her a knowledge of our Supreme Being, a truth that pertains to us, one secret of ours is the most beautiful gift that we make her; each of these gifts is one more bond that we put between Her and us, our every truth is a property that we put in her soul."  
Vol. 29, Aug.3, 1931. 
 




“My daughter, courage, do not fear; there is no darkness in you, because only sin is darkness, while good is light.  Don’t you see how I have come out a foundation of light from within your interior?  But do you know what this light is?  It is all the interior operating that you do.  Each additional act you do is one more filament of your will which you bind to the current of the eternal light; and that filament turns into light.  So, the more acts you do, adding more filaments, the more full, intense and bright the light will become.  Therefore, what you have done is the light that you see, and what is left for you to do is the void that you see within that same light.  And I will remain always in the midst of this light, not only to enjoy it, but to bind the filaments of the human will to the current of the eternal light, because I am the origin, the foundation, the current of the light.  But do you know what true light is?  True light is the truth.  The truth, known, embraced, loved and put into practice by the soul, is the true light, which transforms her into light itself, and causes new and continuous births of light to be placed inside and outside of her.  This truth forms the true Life of God within the soul, because God is truth, and the soul is bound to the truth - even more, she possesses it.  God is light, and she is bound to the light, and is nourished with light and with truth.  However, while I nourish the soul with truth and with light, she must keep the current of her will opened, in order to receive the current of the divine communication.  Otherwise, it can happen as with the electric current, to which its own electrical characteristics are not enough – the light is lacking, the preparations are needed in order to receive it.  And, still, the light does not reach everyone equally, but according to the light bulbs they have:  those who have one, receive one light; those who have ten, receive light for ten.  And if the light bulbs contain more electric filaments, the lamps appear as more full of light; if they have less filaments, even though there is room inside the glass, the light is small.  And even if the place where the current comes from can give more light, one does not receive it, because the strength of the electricity in order to receive it is lacking in the light bulbs.  Therefore, it takes the celestial current which wants to give, as well as the human current in order to receive it; and according to your operating, you will add more filaments to render more complete the light which I want to enclose within you.”
Vol. 17, March 1, 1925






Not everyone will understand these truths, these gifts of God, but they can still enjoy it's effects to some degree.  But not being truly appreciated, longed for, nor loved they will be considered little more than a trifle and often put aside.  Jesus, however, will not be stopped, just like the sun can not be stopped.  He will continue His course with His truths with others who will appreciate them and make them the center of their lives.






See, also the things which can be seen down here are not understood by man.  Who can ever tell how I created the sun, or how much light and heat it contains?  Yet, they see it, they enjoy its effects; it is with them all day, and its heat and light follow them everywhere.  Yet, with all this, they neither know nor can they tell its height, or the light and heat it possesses.  And if anyone wanted to raise himself in order to know it, the light would eclipse him, and the heat would burn him up.  So, man is forced to keep his eyes low and enjoy its light, without being able to investigate it, contenting himself with saying:  ‘It is sun’.
        So, if this happens with the sun which can be seen and which I created for the natural good of man, more so with the truths, which contain, oh! how much more light and heat than the sun itself; especially the truths that regard my Will, which contain eternal effects, goods and value.  Who can ever measure all that It contains?  It would be as though wanting to be eclipsed.  It would be better for them to lower their foreheads and enjoy the light which my truth brings, loving it and making that little light which the human intelligence comprehends their own, rather than putting it aside, as something which does not belong to them, because they do not comprehend all the fullness of its light.  So, they enjoy the light of the sun as much as they can, although they do not comprehend it; they make use of it in order to work, to walk, to look and – oh! how they long for daytime, so that its light may keep them company and live with them.  But then, my truths, which are more than light and make the sun of the day rise in the human minds, are neither regarded, nor loved, nor longed for, and are considered as a trifle.  What sorrow!  However, when I see that they put my truths aside, I put them aside, and I allow my truths to follow their course with souls who love them and long for them, and use their light in order to model their lives and become one with them.  Do you think that I have told you everything about the truths, the effects and the value that my truth contains?  Oh, how many more suns I have to make rise!  And do not be surprised if you do not comprehend everything.  Be content with living of Its light - this is enough for Me.”
Vol. 14, June 23, 1922





It is my Will that wants to follow Its course to make Itself known; and my Will is more than sun, and it takes too much to hide the light of the sun - it is completely impossible.  If they stop it on one side, it surpasses the obstacle which they have placed before it, and squeezing through the other sides, it follows its way with majesty, leaving those who wanted to prevent its course confused, because they have seen it escape from all sides without being able to catch it.  A lamp can be hidden, but the sun – never.  Such is my Will - more than sun; and if you want to hide It, it will be impossible for you.  Therefore be quiet, my daughter, and let the eternal Sun of my Will follow Its course, whether through the writings, or through print, or through your words and your manners.  Let It escape like light, and cover the whole world - I long for it, I want it.  And besides, how much, really, of the truths about my Will was put out?  It can be said it was just the atoms of Its light; and even though atoms still - if you knew the good they do!  What will happen when, after all the truths I have spoken to you about my Will have been gathered together, the fecundity of Its light, the goods It contains, united all together, will form, not just the atoms or the rising sun, but its full midday?  What good will this eternal Sun not produce in the midst of creatures?  And you and I will be happier in seeing my Will known, loved and fulfilled.  Therefore, let Me do.
Vol. 17, April 26, 1925





Each truth is a new creation formed in the soul that  Jesus wants to extend throughout so that everyone might know them.  Wanting to hide these truths is to dishonor God.  When the truth is made known it is like light which by itself extends itself everywhere.  It's light is so great that it would eclipse the sun.  What Jesus does in the soul with these truths is greater than the Creation







“My daughter, my word is creative, and when I speak, making known a truth that belongs to Me, it is nothing less than new divine creations that I make in the soul.  And just as, when I created the heavens, with one single Fiat I stretched them out and studded them with billions of stars - so much so, that there is not one place of the earth from which this heaven cannot be seen; and if from some points it could not be seen, it would be a dishonor for the creative power, and some could say that the creative force did not have the power to extend everywhere - in the same way, my truths are more than heavens, which I would want to make known to all, from one end of the earth to another, and make them pass from mouth to mouth like many stars, to adorn the heaven of the truths I manifested.

“If the creature wanted to hide my truths, it would be as if she wanted to prevent Me from creating the heavens; and by the secret she would want to keep, she would dishonor Me, as if someone wanted to prevent others from looking at the heavens, at the sun, and at all the other things created by Me, so as not to make Me known.  Ah! my daughter, the truth is light, and light extends by itself; but in order for it to extend, it is necessary to make it known - the rest it will do by itself.  Otherwise, it will remain compressed, without the good of being able to illuminate, and to follow the course it wants.  Therefore, be attentive, and do not prevent Me from extending the light of my truths.”
Vol. 13, January 30, 1922






‘How good Jesus is.  It seems to me that He greatly delights in communicating Himself to the creature, and that He takes so much pleasure in manifesting His truths, that while He is saying one, that very truth is a spur for Him, and almost draws Him with an irresistible force to manifest more truths.  What goodness!  What love!’  And Jesus came out again from within my interior, and placing His face close to mine, added:  “My daughter, you do not know what it means to manifest my truths, and this is why you marvel at my pleasure and at the irresistible force I feel to manifest Myself to the creature.  And one who is willing to listen to Me forms my joy and my delights in conversing with her.  You must know that when I manifest one truth of mine which is not known, it is a new creation that I make, and I love very much to unleash from Myself the many goods and secrets which I contain.  But as much as I may speak, since I am that Act ever new that never repeats Itself, I always yearn to say more; and as I speak, I always have more new things that I would like to say, because that newness is never exhausted in Me - I am always new in love, new in beauty, new in contentments, in harmonies – new in everything, and ever new.  And this is why I do not tire anyone, I always have new things to give and to say, and the irresistible force that pushes Me to manifest Myself is my immense love.  In an outpouring of love I issued the Creation; everything that can be seen in the whole universe was all inside of Me.  Love made the shadow of my light overflow from my interior, and I created the sun; the shadow of my immensity and of my harmonies, and I stretched out the heavens, harmonizing them with many stars and celestial spheres.  These and other things which I created were nothing other than shadows of mine which I issued from Myself; and my love had its outpouring, and I took great delight in seeing what was contained in Me, spread out in little particles hovering over all Creation.

Now, what will my joy be in manifesting my truths, which are not shadows of mine that come out of Me, but the substance of the goods that I contain within Me; and which speak of Me, not in a mute language like all created things do, but with clear, sonorous and eloquent voice; and which, since my word is creative, like a new creation create in the soul the truths that I manifest?  If with one Fiat I created many things, in manifesting my truths it is not just one Fiat that I pronounce, but as many words for as many as are needed in order to manifest and to have souls comprehend that which I want them to understand.  Imagine, then, what my contentment is in manifesting my truths to the soul who, not in a mute language, but with speaking voice, will manifest my goods, my truths, to others, in order to infuse in others the good she has received.  Therefore, in manifesting my truths, my love finds its outpouring and becomes festive, and I greatly love one who is willing to listen to Me.”
Vol. 15, July 1, 1923






my second confessor came, who is also deceased, and he told me:  “Tell me what Jesus said to you - I want to hear it, so that the light of the divine truths may unite to the many lights of the truths which the Lord spoke to you, and with which, in hearing them from you when I was alive, I remained as though impregnated.  Now the Lord has sent me to confirm for me the recompense of the merit I acquired by wanting to hear those truths.  If you knew what it means to hear the divine truths, what charm of light they contain, such that the sun would remain eclipsed, and the good they bring to the one who speaks them and to the one who listens to them, you would compete – you, in speaking them, and the one who feels the duty to do so, in listening to them.  Therefore, hurry, tell me - what did He say to you?”  And I, remembering that Jesus had told me what charity means, told him that.  My words turned into light and invested him; then, all content, he disappeared from me.

Now I will say what Jesus had told me about charity:  “My daughter, true charity, with its power, can convert all things into love. Look at fire:  all varieties of wood and any other thing - it converts them all into fire; and if it did not have the power to convert everything into fire, it could not be given the name of true fire.  The same for the soul: if she does not convert all things into love – both supernatural and natural things, joys and bitternesses, and everything that surrounds her – she cannot be said to possess true charity.”

“My daughter, everything I do in the soul – oh, how it surpasses all that I did in Creation!   See, each knowledge of my perfections which I manifest, each truth which pertains to the Divinity, is a new heaven that I extend within the soul.   And as the soul rises in the truths she has known in order to resemble her Creator, it is new suns that I come to form within the space of these heavens.   Each grace I pour and each time I renew her union with Me, are seas that are laid in the soul; and her love and correspondence form the sweet murmuring of these seas, as well as mighty waves which rise up to Heaven and come to unload themselves at the foot of the divine throne.  As the soul practices her virtues, since the body too contributes to the exercise of them, the body can be called the little field of the soul, over which I lay the most beautiful flowery meadows, in which I delight in creating ever new flowers, plants and fruits.
Vol. 19, April 4, 1926






Each truth revealed to the creature and accepted by them is a new happiness, a new beatitude, which causes all of Heaven to rejoice, but the truths which contain the most glory are about the Divine Will.  For a soul to receive these truths they must first want to live of the Divine Will, then want to know It, and thirdly truly appreciate It, valuing It above all things.






Each truth contains within itself a distinct beatitude, happiness, joy and beauty.  What it means to have known on earth one more truth about the Divine Will when the soul is in Heaven.

“My daughter, the more truths I manifest to you, the more specialties of beatitudes I give to you as gift.  Each truth contains within itself a distinct beatitude, happiness, joy and beauty; so, every additional truth you know brings beatitude, happiness, joy and beauty into yourself, with which you are enriched.  These are divine seeds that the soul receives, and by manifesting them to others, she communicates these seeds and enriches whomever receives them.  Now, since the truths that one has known on earth are divine seeds which sprout with beatitudes, joy, etc., when the soul is in her Fatherland in Heaven they will be like electric wires of communication through which the Divinity will release from Its womb so many acts of beatitude for as many truths as she has known.  Oh! how inundated the soul will be, as though by many different immense seas.  She already has the seed, and by having the seed, she has the space in which to receive these immense seas of happiness, of joy and of beauty.  One who does not have the seed - who has not known a truth while on earth - lacks the space to be able to receive these beatitudes. 

“It happens as to a little one who did not want to study all the languages.  As he grows up, and hears these languages being spoken, which he did not want to study, or which he was not given the opportunity of studying - he will understand nothing.  In fact, by not wanting to study, his intelligence remained closed, and he made no effort to prepare a little space in order to comprehend those languages.  At the most, he will be amazed, and will enjoy from someone else’s happiness, but he will not possess it, nor will he be the cause of happiness for others.  See then, what it means to know one truth more, or one truth less - if all knew what great goods they miss, they would compete in order to acquire truths.

“Now, the truths are the secretaries of my beatitudes, and if I do not manifest them to souls, they do not break the secret which they contain.  They swim within my Divinity, waiting for their turn to act as divine agents, and make Me known - how many more beatitudes I contain.  And the longer they have remained hidden in my womb, the more uproariously and majestically they come out to inundate the creatures and manifest my glory. 

“Do you believe that all of Heaven is aware of all my goods?  No, no!  Oh! how much remains for It to enjoy, which It does not enjoy today.  Each creature who enters into Heaven, having known one more truth, which was unknown to the others, will carry within herself the seed so as to have new contentments, new joys and new beauty released from Me.  And these souls will be their cause and fount, while the others will take part in them.  The last day will not come if I do not find souls who are disposed, so that I may reveal all my truths - so that the Celestial Jerusalem may resound with my complete glory, and all the Blessed may share in all of my beatitudes, some as direct cause for having known that truth, and some as indirect cause, through the one who has known it.

“Now, my daughter, in order to console you, and so that you may be more attentive in listening to my truths, I want to tell you which ones are the truths that glorify Me the most:  they are those which regard my Will, since the primary reason for which I created man was that his will be one with his Creator.  But man, having withdrawn from my Will, rendered himself unworthy to know the values, the effects and all the truths It contains.  This is the reason for all my attentions with you:  that between Me and you, our wills would run together, and be always in highest accord.  In fact, so that the soul may open the doors and become disposed to knowing the truths that my Will contains, the first thing is wanting to live of my Will, the second is wanting to know It, the third is to appreciate It.  Therefore, with you I opened the doors of my Will, that you might know Its secrets, which man had buried inside my womb, as well as Its effects and the value It contains; and as many truths as you come to know about my Will, so many seeds you receive, and so many divine secretaries form your cortege.  Oh! how they make feast around you, having found one to whom to confide their secret.  But they will make the most beautiful feast when they will bring you to Heaven - when the Divinity, at your very entrance, will release so many different beatitudes of joy, of happiness and of beauty, all different among themselves, which will not only inundate you, but all the Blessed will take part in them.  Oh! how Heaven awaits your coming, to enjoy these new contentments.”

Vol. 13, January 25, 1922






... the confessor told me (Luisa's late confessor):  “You must know that when Jesus speaks to you and manifests His truths to you, it is rays of light that drop upon you.  Back then, when you manifested them to me, not having His virtue, you manifested them drop by drop, and yet my soul remained all filled with those drops of light.  That light gave me greater spur, more desire to hear more truths, to be able to receive more light, because the truths bring celestial fragrance and divine sensation - and this, by just hearing them.  What will it be for those who practice them?  This is why I loved - I desired so much to hear what Jesus told you, and I wanted to tell others:  it was light and fragrance that I felt, and I wanted others to share in them.  If you knew the great good that my soul has received in hearing the truths which Jesus was saying to you!  How it still drips with light, and emanates celestial fragrance, which not only gives me refreshment, but serves as light to me and to those who are near me.  And as you do your acts in the Divine Volition, I take special part in them, because I feel the seed of His Most Holy Will which you were sowing in me.”  And I:  ‘Let me see your soul - how does it drip with light?’  He opened himself on the side of the heart, and I saw his soul all dripping with light.  Those drops were merging and separating, one flowing over the other - it was beautiful to look at.  And he:  “Have you seen?  How beautiful it is to hear the truths!  Those who do not hear them drip with such darkness as to strike terror.”

Vol. 14, March 13, 1922







Truth can be known only when it is loved.  Without love the creature would not strive to know the truth nor put it into practice.  It is in this work of "chewing on the truths" that the creature takes possession of the good within the truth.  Then the soul must put these truths into action in order that they will have their effect.  Without this effort the creature will never fully understand and value it but will instead pass ignorant judgements on it.  This is so true that it is easier for the simple to acquire these truths than the learned because the learned are often blinded by pride.  If one is not disposed to receive the truth they receive nothing and do not understand anything in these readings.  More so they will only remain more confused being dazzled by the light of God's Truths.







"...know that a truth in order to know it it is necessary to love it.  Love makes the appetite arise, the appetite forms the taste, the taste makes arise the hunger to eat of it to satiate, and chewing very well the substance of a food, or rather my truths.  The chewing produces the easy digestion in a way that one feels the possession of the great good that my truth possesses and produces.  Then the doubts quit, difficulties melt as snow before the rays of a scorching sun.  Now if hardly they have grazed them without eating them, with a profound study, with a love that generates the appetite what wonder!  What makes doubts and difficulty?  Oh, how they would have done better to say:  ‘it is not food for us, we don’t have (the) will to eat it’, rather than to give judgments.  But one knows, that my truths find post more in the simple hearts than in the learned hearts.  This happened in my Redemption, with my sorrow not one learned one followed Me; but all the poor, ignorant and simple ones.  You should know that my truths are seeds that I the Celestial Farmer continue to sow in souls, and if I make my seeding(,) with certainty I must gather the fruit."

Our Lord made Himself seen once again with the crown of thorns on His head, all dripping with blood; and turning to me, He said:  “Daughter, take a look at what men do to Me.  In these sad times their pride is so great that they have poisoned all the air; and the stench that spreads everywhere is such that it has reached even before my throne in Heaven.  They act in such a way as to close Heaven by themselves.  The miserable ones do not have eyes to know the truth, because they are obfuscated by the sin of pride, followed by the other vices which they bring with themselves.  O please! give Me a relief from so many bitter spasms, and a reparation for so many wrongdoings against Me.” 

Vol. 1, The victim begins to perform her office, taking part in the pains of Jesus crowned with thorns, to make reparation for sins, especially pride.  Fasting begins for Luisa.







“My daughter, in order to know the truths, it is necessary to have the will, the desire, to know them.  Imagine a room in which the shutters are closed:  no matter how much sun there may be outside, the room remains always in the dark.  Now, opening the shutters means wanting light.  But this is not enough if one does not take advantage of the light to reorder the room, dust it, and put himself to work, so as not to kill the light which is given, and become ungrateful.  In the same way, it is not enough to have the will to know the truths if, at the light of the truth which illuminates him, one does not try to dust himself of his own weaknesses, reorder himself according to the light of the truth he knows, and put himself to work together with the light of truth, making of it his own substance, in such a way that the light of the truth which he has absorbed may shine forth from his mouth, from his hands, from his bearing.  It would be as if he killed the truth; and by not putting it into practice, it would be like remaining in total disorder before the light.  Poor room full of light, but all messy, upside down, in total disorder, with a person in it who does not take the care of reordering it - how pitiful would it not be?  Such is one who knows the truths, and does not put them into practice. 

“However, know that simplicity enters into all truths as the first nourishment.  If the truths were not simple, they would not be light, and they could not penetrate into human minds to enlighten them; and where there is no light, objects cannot be distinguished.  Simplicity is not only light, but it is like the air that one breathes which, though it cannot be seen, gives respiration to all; and if it wasn’t for the air, the earth and everyone would remain without motion.  Therefore, if the virtues, the truths, do not carry the mark of simplicity, they will be without light and without air.”
Vol. 13, November 19, 1921



“My operating is communicative and always in act, without ever stopping.  However, many times these channels are covered with mud by creatures; others throw stones into them, and the water does not flow freely, but with difficulty.  It is not that the sea does not want to give water, or that the water cannot penetrate everywhere because it is not clear; rather, it is the creatures that oppose such a great good.  Therefore, if they read these truths not being disposed, they will not understand a thing.  They will remain confused and dazzled by the Light of my Truths.  For those who are disposed, it will be Light which will light them up, and water which will quench their thirst, in such a way that they will never want to detach themselves from these channels because of the great good they feel, and the new life which flows in them.  Therefore, you too should be happy to open these channels for the good of your brothers, neglecting nothing about my truths - not even the tiniest thing, because as tiny as it may be, it can serve one of your brothers in order to draw water.  So, be attentive in opening these channels, and in contenting your Jesus, who has done so much for you.”
Vol. 13, October 23, 1921




When the truth enters souls it illuminates and vivifies them, making them fecund with virtues, however voluntary defects can block the truth from entering, but when it is involuntary defects the truth can pierce these shadows, melting them away.




“The truth is light, which the Word brought upon earth.  Just as the sun illuminates, vivifies and fecundates the earth, so does the light of truth give life and light, and it renders souls fecund with virtues.  Even though many clouds obfuscate this light of truth, which are the iniquities of men, in spite of this, it does not cease to send forth glimmers of vivifying light from behind the clouds, so as to warm souls.  And if these clouds are clouds of imperfection and of involuntary defects, this light, piercing them with its heat, makes them vanish and it penetrates freely into the soul.”  
I understood that the soul must be attentive not to fall even into a shade of voluntary defects, which are those dangerous clouds that prevent the entrance of divine light.
Vol. 3, February 12, 1900 




The soul must ruminate within her mind on the truths she has learned.
I was thinking: ‘How bad I have become – yet, the Lord does not correct me; He does not scold me.’  While I was thinking of this, I felt Him move in my interior, telling me:  “My daughter, keep walking, keep walking… If I am goodness, mercy, sweetness, I am also justice, strength, power.  If I saw you go backward or commit voluntary defects after the so many graces I have given you, you would deserve to be struck by lightning, and indeed I would strike you.  If I do not do it, you yourself can understand why; and if I do not always speak to you - ruminate constantly in your mind on all the truths I have taught you, then enter into your interior, unite yourself with Me, and I will always be with you, operating interiorly.”
Vol. 8, July 4, 1907



However inconstancy and volubility are signs that the truth has not taken full possession of the soul.  When the light of truth takes possession of a soul she is constant and willing to sacrifice everything for the love of it, despising everything that doesn't belong to the truth.




My daughter, the thing that displeases Me the most is inconstancy and volubility, because this is the sign that the truth has not taken possession of these souls. Even in things of religion, it may be that they find their satisfaction, their own convenience and interest, or that they just find themselves in that party; but tomorrow these things may be missing, or they may find themselves involved in other parties - and here is how they deviate from religion, and with no regret they give themselves to other sects. Indeed, when the true light of Truth enters a soul and takes possession of a heart, she is not subject to inconstancy. On the contrary, she sacrifices everything for love of It and to let herself be mastered by It alone; and with unconquered heart she despises everything else which does not belong to the Truth.”

Vol. 4, March 31, 1901




To enjoy the benefits of the sun one must keeps ones eyes open, so it is with the light of truth.  In order to reach the fullness of this, one must act to please Jesus alone.  Everyone else remains in darkness.  So, because of pride not everyone will recognize truth and likewise they won't accept the work that God has done in Luisa.   The same as with Jesus' own life on earth.  This is especially true with the priests and the spiritual authorities just as in Jesus' days.  The higher up one is the greater the temptation to pride, but crosses act as a press to the soul forcing pride, self love and the passions out of the soul.  This leaves a snow white canvas for the virtues to apply themselves.  The same for when Jesus is about to reveal a truth on His Will.  First the crosses pave the way to remove that which is human in order to make way for the Divine and the greater the truth to greater the cross.  Wanting everything to go smoothly, easily, and to be accepted by all is to deviate from the imitation of Jesus' own Life.



“The sun is there for the benefit of all, but not everyone enjoys its beneficial effects.  In the same way, the Divine Sun gives Its light to all, but who enjoys Its beneficial effects?  One who keeps his eyes open to the light of truth.  All others, even if they are exposed to the Sun, remain in the dark.  However, it is one who is all intent on pleasing Me that truly enjoys and receives all the fullness of this Sun.”
Vol. 5, June 16, 1903




And Jesus: “My daughter, crosses, sorrows, pains, are like a press for the soul.   Just as the wine-press serves to crush and peel the grapes, in such a way that the wine remains on one side and the skin on the other; in the same way, crosses and pains, like a press, peel the soul of pride, of love of self, of passions, and of all that is human, leaving the pure wine of virtues.  And so my virtues find the way to communicate themselves and lay themselves within the soul as on a snow-white canvas, with indelible characters.  How can you fear, then, if every time I have manifested to you my truths on my Will, these truths have always been preceded by crosses, sorrows and pains – and the higher the truths, the more intense and the stronger the pains?  It was nothing other than the pressure of the press which I exercised in you, in order to peel you of all that is human.  It was my interest, more than yours, that these truths would not be mixed with the skin of human passions.”
Vol. 16,  December 26, 1923





“My daughter, my Will wants to give Itself to you more and more; and in order to give Itself more, It wants to make Itself understood more.  And in order to render what It manifests to you more stable, safer, more estimable, It gives you new pains so as to dispose you more, and to prepare in you the empty space in which to place Its truths.  It wants the noble cortege of pain in order to be sure about the soul, and to be able to trust her.  It is always pain and crosses that open the doors to new manifestations, to more secret lessons, to the greatest gifts which I want to place in you.  In fact, if the soul bears my suffering and sorrowful Will, she will become capable of receiving my delighting Will, and will acquire the hearing in order to understand the new lessons of my Will.  Pain will make her acquire the celestial language, in such a way that she will be able to repeat the new lessons she has learned.”
Vol. 17, June 25, 1925






Jesus appeared a little disappointed with him, because it seemed that the confessor wanted everyone to approve that my situation was a work from God, and almost wanted to convince other priests by showing them something of my interior.

Jesus turned to the confessor and said to him:  “This is impossible. Even I received oppositions, and from people among the most distinguished, and also from priests and other authorities.  They found fault with my holy works, to the point of saying that I was possessed by the devil.  But I allow these oppositions, even from religious people, so that the truth may shine more in its own time.  If you want to consult with two or three priests among the most good and holy, and also learned, in order to receive enlightenment and also to do what I want in the things to be done, which is advice from the good and prayer - this, I allow.  But the rest - no, no.  It would be as though wanting to waste my works, making fun of them - which displeases Me very much.”

Then He said to me:  “All I want from you is an upright and simple operating.  Do not bother about the pros and the cons of creatures; let them think what they want, without being the least troubled, since wanting that all be favorable is wanting to deviate from the imitation of my own Life.”
Vol. 2, May 31, 1899






The sun, symbol of God's grace and truth, is freely given to all but many walk deliberately with their eyes closed and voluntarily live in the dark amidst enemies and danger.  Some would even reach such ingratitude as to pluck out their own eyes.  But still God's grace continues to follow them always trying to send them glimmers of light, of truth.




 “Take a look at how ungrateful men are to Me.  The light of the sun fills the whole earth, from one end to another, in such a way that there is no land which does not enjoy the benefit of its light, and there is no one who can complain about being without its beneficial influence.  In fact, investing the whole universe, the sun takes it as though in hand to be able to give light to all.  Only one who, escaping from its hand, goes to hide in dark places can complain of not enjoying its light; and yet, continuing its charitable office, the sun does not cease to send him a few glimmers of light through its fingers.  So is my Grace, an image of the sun, which inundates the people everywhere:  poor and rich, ignorant and learned, Christians and unbelievers - no one, no one can say he is without it, because the light of truth and the influence of my Grace fill the earth, more than the sun in its full midday. 

But what pain is mine in seeing people who, passing through this light with their eyes closed and confronting my Grace with the pestilent torrent of their iniquities, deviate from this light and live voluntarily in dark places, in the midst of cruel enemies?  They are exposed to a thousand dangers, because, not having light, they cannot know clearly whether they are in the midst of friends or enemies, and therefore shun the dangers that surround them. 

Ah, if the sun had reason and men were able to give this affront to its light, and some of them, to irritate its light and not to see it, reached such ingratitude as to pluck their eyes out so as to be more sure of living in darkness – ah!, instead of sending light, the sun would send laments and cries of sorrow, such as to turn all nature upside down!   Yet, that which one would have horror in doing to natural light, men reach such excess as to do to my Grace, treating it in this way.  But my Grace, always benign with them, in the midst of darkness itself and of the madness of their blindness, always sends glimmers of light, because my Grace never leaves anyone.   It is man who voluntarily goes out of it, and Grace, not having him within itself, tries to follow him with glimmers of its light.”
Vol. 3, March 9, 1900





This is why it is so necessary to keep one's mind open to the light of the truth otherwise one will not understand anything.  But Jesus will continue little by little to reveal this way of living in the Divine Will.





This is also why I often speak to you about the living in my Will, which I have not manifested to anyone until now.  At the most, they have known the shadow of my Will, the grace, the sweetness that doing It contains; but to penetrate inside of It, to embrace immensity, to multiply oneself with Me and penetrate everywhere, even while being on earth, both into Heaven and into the hearts, to lay down the human ways and act with the divine ways - this is not yet known; so much so, that not to a few will it appear strange, and those who do not keep their minds open to the light of truth will not understand a thing.  But I, little by little, will make my way, manifesting now one truth, now another, of this living in my Will, so that they will end up comprehending It. 
Vol. 12, January 29, 1919






God is eternal Truth, unable to deceive and unable to be deceived.  When the soul clearly sees her nothingness  arriving to a point of no self-interest and her complete dependence on God, this creates the void where God communicates His Grace of truth so that the creature can see the truth in everything becoming, through Grace, what God is by nature.  But the soul must love and "chew" on these truths in order to make a permanent home for them within herself.  Jesus wanted to be circumcised in order to demonstrate this necessity of humility because the soul must humble herself in order to understand the truth.   In doing so she comes to understand her nothingness and then wants to strive along the path of virtues.





This morning blessed Jesus made Himself seen for just a little, and told me:  “My daughter, the greatest honor that the creature can give to God is to depend on His Divine Will in everything; and the Creator, in seeing that the creature fulfills her duty of creature toward the Creator, communicates His Grace to her.”  And while He was saying this, a light came out of blessed Jesus, which made me comprehend the way in which He communicates Grace. 

I understood it in this way.  For example, the soul feels within herself the annihilation of herself; she sees her nothingness, her misery, her inability to do a shadow of good.  Now, while she feels this way, God communicates His Grace, and the Grace of truth, in such a way that the soul can see the truth in everything without deceit, without darkness.  And here is how, what God is by nature – eternal Truth which cannot deceive nor be deceived – the soul becomes by Grace.  That is to say, the soul feels detachment from the things of the earth, she sees their fleetingness, their instability, how everything is false, everything is rot, which deserves to be abhorred rather than loved.  While the soul feels this state, God communicates His Grace, and the Grace of true love and of eternal love; He communicates His beauty, in such a way as to make the loving soul go mad, and the soul remains filled with the love and the beauty of God.  And here is how, what God is by nature – love and eternal beauty – the soul becomes by Grace; and so with all the other divine virtues, such that if I wanted to say everything, I would be too long.  I only add that Grace anticipates the soul, It excites her, but only when the soul masticates those truths, and swallows them like food into her bosom, then It communicates Itself and enters to take possession of her.  This is why not everyone receives the effects described above – because they let them escape from their minds like lightnings, and do not make a place for them.
Vol. 6, February 28, 1906




“My daughter, why do you want to move away from my likeness?  I never thought about Myself; the Sanctity of my Humanity was complete absence of self-interest.  I did nothing for Myself, but I did and suffered everything for creatures.  My love can be called true, because it is marked by disinterest for my own self.  Wherever there is interest, it cannot be said that there is a fount of truth.  On the other hand, the soul with no self-interest is the one who comes forward the most; and as she comes forward, the sea of my grace takes her from behind, inundating her, in such a way as to make her remain completely submerged, without her thinking about it.  On the contrary, one who thinks about herself is last; the sea of my grace is in front of her, and she is the one who has to cross the sea by arm strokes - if she manages at all.  In fact, the thought of herself will create many obstacles for her, such as to strike into her the fear of diving into my sea; and she runs the risk of remaining on the shore.”

Vol. 12, June 22, 1920




“The more the soul humiliates herself and knows herself, the closer she draws to the truth; and being in the truth, she tries to push herself along the path of virtues, from which she sees herself very far away.  And if she sees herself on the path of virtues, immediately she realizes how much there is left for her to do, because virtues have no end – they are infinite, as I am.  So, being in the truth, the soul always tries to perfect herself, but she will never arrive at seeing herself perfect.  And this serves her, and it will make her work continuously, striving to perfect herself more, without wasting time in idleness.  And I, pleased with this work, keep retouching her little by little, in order to portray my likeness in her. 

This is why I wanted to be circumcised – to give an example of highest humility, which rendered the very Angels of Heaven stunned.” 
Vol. 3, January 1, 1900




I saw little Baby Jesus with a fistful of light in His hand, and rays flowing out through His fingers.  I remained enchanted, and He told me:  “My daughter, perfection is light, and one who says he wants to reach it acts just like one who would want to clasp a body of light in his hand:  as he tries to clasp it, the light itself flows out through his fingers; except, his hand remains immersed in that light.  Now, the light is God, and God alone is perfect, and the soul who wants to be perfect does nothing but seize shadows - the little drops of God; and sometimes she does nothing but live in the light alone, that is, in the Truth.  And just as the light penetrates deeper and occupies more space the greater the void it finds, and the deeper the place is - in the same way, the more the soul is empty and humble, the more the divine light fills her and communicates Its graces and perfections to her.”
Vol. 6, December 22, 1904





By continually returning to these truths it is as if they give off their fragrance, perfuming Heaven and Earth and this causes Jesus to want to make still more truths revealed.  The Divine Truths always have more to give than the creature can receive.





“How beautiful it is to see my truths in your heart as fount of life immediately having the development and the effect for which they have communicated themselves.  Therefore, correspond, and as soon as I see one truth developed, I will make it an honor for Myself to make another fount of truth arise.”
Vol. 13, January 11, 1922



 

The more one thinks about the truths, reads them, writes them, talks about them, and diffuses them, the more fragrance they give off.

Out of obedience, I was reviewing, in my writings, that which I had to mark so that it might be copied; and I thought to myself:  ‘What is the purpose of so many sacrifices?  What good will come from them?’  And while I was thinking and doing this, blessed Jesus took my hand in His, and squeezing it tightly told me:  “My daughter, just as the flower, when touched, gives off its fragrance with greater intensity - so much so that, if it is not touched, it seems that it does not contain so much fragrance, and the air does not receive the balm of that scent - the same for my truths:   the more one thinks about them, reads them, writes them, talks about them, and diffuses them, the more fragrance they give off, in such a way as to perfume everything and reach even into Heaven.   And I smell the fragrance of my truths, and I feel like manifesting more truths, in seeing that the truths I manifested spread the light and the fragrance which they contain.   On the other hand, if my truths are not touched, the fragrance and the light remain as though compressed and do not spread; the good and the utility which my truths contain remain without effect, and I feel defrauded of the purpose for which I manifested my truths.  Therefore, if only to let Me smell the fragrance of my words and make Me content, you should be happy to make the sacrifice.”

The light of the Divine Will continues to envelop me; and my little intelligence, while swimming in the immense sea of this light, can just barely take a few drops of light and a few little flames of the so many truths, knowledges and happinesses that this endless sea of the Eternal Will contains.  And many times I cannot find the right words in order to put on paper that little bit of light; I say little compared to the much I leave out, because my little and poor intelligence takes as much as is enough to fill me – the rest I have to leave out.  It happens as to a person who dives into the sea:  he becomes all wet, water flows everywhere on him, and maybe even in his bowels; but as he goes out of the sea, how much of all the water of the sea does he carry with himself?  Very little – indeed almost nothing compared to the water that remains in the sea.  And by having been in the sea, can he perhaps say how much water, how many species of fish and quantities of them there are in the sea?  Certainly not; but he will be able to speak of the little he has seen of the sea.  Such is my poor soul.

In order to determine between grace, nature, the devil, and truth and falsehood, the intellect must be illumined with belief (faith.)  Those who believe have faith, hope and love written in their hearts and they will see things clearly and find the truth.  This keeps the soul calm and at peace.  For those who do not have this they have nothing and everything is confusion as light fractured into a multitude of broken pieces.





Everything is written in the hearts of those who believe, hope and love.
This morning I was feeling all oppressed, and since Monsignor had come to visit me, saying that he was not sure that it was Jesus Christ who operated in me, when blessed Jesus came, He told me:  “My daughter, in order to comprehend a subject well it takes belief, because without belief everything is dark in the human intellect.  On the other hand, the mere believing turns on a light in the mind, and by means of this light one can recognize with clarity truth and falsehood, when it is grace that operates, when it is nature, and when the devil.  See, the Gospel is known to all, but who comprehends the meaning of my words, and the truths contained in It?  Who keeps them in his heart and makes of them a treasure with which to purchase the eternal kingdom?  One who believes.  As for all others, not only do they not understand a thing, but they use my words to mock them and to make fun of the holiest things.  So, it can be said that everything is written in the hearts of those who believe, hope and love, while nothing is written for everyone else.  The same with you:  one who has a little bit of belief sees things with clarity and finds the truth; one who does not, sees things as all confused.”

 “My daughter, when a river is exposed to the rays of the sun, in looking into it one sees the same sun that is there in the heavens.  However, this happens when the river is calm, with no wind that ripples its waters.  But if the waters are rippled, even though the river is completely exposed to the sun, one can see nothing – everything is confusion.  The same for the soul:  when she is exposed to the rays of the Divine Sun, if she is calm she perceives the Divine Sun within herself, she feels Its heat, she sees the light and understands the truth.  But if she is disturbed, even though she has It within herself, she feels nothing but confusion and disturbance.  Therefore, hold peace as your greatest treasure if you cherish being united with Me.”

The creature is a  finite being and can never truly understand the infinite.  There will always be some enigma, some mystery with God, but all of this only makes the truth shine more.  The truth is recognized as truth when one remains in peace and sees true virtue produced. 




Doubts of the confessor.  The answer of Jesus.
Since the confessor had raised some doubts, as blessed Jesus came, I saw the confessor with Him, and He was saying to him:  “My operating is always leaning on the truth, and even though many times it appears obscure, under enigmas, however, one cannot help saying that it is the truth.  And even though the creature does not understand my operating with clarity, this does not destroy the truth; on the contrary, it makes one comprehend much better that it is a Divine way of operating.  In fact, since the creature is finite, she cannot embrace and comprehend the infinite; at the most, she can comprehend and embrace a few glimmers.  As for example, the many things said by Me in Scripture, and my way of operating in the Saints – has this perhaps been understood with all clarity?  Oh, how many things are left obscured and amidst enigma!  And yet, how many minds of the erudite and learned have tired themselves in interpreting them?  And what have they yet understood?  One can say absolutely nothing, compared to what is left to be known.  But does this perhaps prejudice the truth?  Not at all – on the contrary, it makes it shine more.  Therefore, your eye must be kept on whether there is true virtue, and whether, in everything, it can be felt that the truth is present, though sometimes obscured; as for the rest, one must remain tranquil and in holy peace.”  Having said this, He disappeared, and I returned inside myself.

A sure sign of it being Jesus' word, which is truth and light, is where it enters it produces sanctity and order such that the soul feels the virtues; patience, humility, charity and such come forth.  Even more so truth has the inherent ability to transform the soul into the truth itself, giving the very good that it contains.  Whereas if it is the devil who speaks it is empty of good, of life, of grace.





My word is not only truth, but also light, and when a light enters a dark room – what does it do?  It dispels the darkness, and makes one distinguish the objects that are in it, whether they are ugly or beautiful, whether there is order or disorder; and from the way that room is found, one judges the person that occupies it.   Now, the human life is the dark room, and when the light of truth enters a soul, it dispels the darkness – that is, it makes her distinguish what is true from what is false, the temporal from the eternal, in such a way that she casts vices away from herself and places the order of virtues within her.  In fact, since my light is holy - it is my very Divinity - it cannot communicate anything but sanctity and order, and so the soul feels light of patience, of humility, of charity and the like come out of herself.   If my word produces these signs in you, why fear?”

The words of Jesus are full of truth and of light, and they carry with them the substance and the virtue of transforming the soul into truth itself, into light itself, and into the very good which they contain.

 I was thinking about what has been written, and I said to myself:  ‘Is it really Jesus that speaks to me, or is it a trick of the enemy and of my fantasy?’  And Jesus, on coming, told me: 

 “My daughter, my words are full of truth and of light, and they carry with them the substance and the virtue of transforming the soul into truth itself, into light itself, and into the very good which they contain, in such a way that the soul does not only know the truth, but she feels within her the substance of operating according to the truth which she has known.  Further, my truths are full of beauty and attraction, in such a way that the soul, taken by their beauty, lets herself be enraptured by them. 

“In Me everything is order, harmony and beauty.  See, I created the heavens; they alone could have been enough - but no, I wanted to adorn them with stars, almost studding them with beauty, so that the human eye might enjoy more from the works of its Creator.  I created the earth, and I adorned it with many plants and flowers.  I created nothing which did not have its own ornament.  And if this is in the order of created things, much more so in my truths, which reside within my Divinity.  While it seems that they reach the soul, they are like solar rays, which hit and warm the earth without ever departing from the center of the Sun.  And the soul remains so enamored with my truths, that she finds it almost impossible not to put into practice the truths she has known, even at the cost of her life.

“On the other hand, when it is the enemy or the speculation of fantasy that want to speak about truths, they bring neither light, nor substance, nor beauty, nor attraction.  They are empty truths, without life, and the soul does not feel the grace to sacrifice herself to put them into practice.  Therefore, the truths that your Jesus tells you are full of life and of all that my truths contain.  Why do you doubt?”

When God speaks the soul not only sees the truths of the words but feels a movement in her interior which only comes from the Divine.




...finding myself outside of myself, I saw the confessor and I told him what blessed Jesus had told me.  I asked him whether it was according to the truth, and he said to me:  “Yes.”  Not only this, but he added that the divine speaking could be recognized well, because when God speaks and the soul relates it, one who listens not only sees the truths of the words, but feels a movement in his interior, which only the Divine Spirit possesses.
Vol. 5, October 29, 1903






If the devil speaks about virtue he can only project repugnance and hatred for the virtue within the soul.  But when it is God who speaks His word is full of life and fecund with the virtue of which He speaks because truth is strength, light, and support for anyone who embraces it. 






Another time, I remember that since I feared that my state might be a work of the devil, good Jesus told me:  “My daughter, the devil can also speak about virtue, but while speaking about virtue, he casts repugnance and hatred for virtue itself into the interior of the soul.  So, the poor soul finds herself in contradiction, and without the strength to practice good.  On the other hand, when it is I who speak, since I am the truth, my word is full of life; it is not sterile, but fecund, therefore while I speak I infuse love for virtue, and I produce that very virtue in the soul.  In fact, the truth is strength, it is light, it is support and a second nature for the soul who lets herself be guided by the truth.”
Vol. 7, May 9, 1907






Ultimately the devil knows nothing about the Will of God since he rejected it, therefore he can not speak about It.  So seeing the creature doing the Will of God is the thing which he hates the most.  He cares little about whether the creature receives the Sacraments or prays, or preforms miracles but to see the creature do God's Will doubles Hell for him.  Therefore the devil can not speak about God's Will and his word is empty of grace and carries neither happiness nor peace.






“My daughter, why do you fear?  Don’t you know that the thing which the infernal serpent knows the least about Me is my Will?  In fact, he did not want to do It, and by not doing It, he did not know It, nor love It.  And even less did he penetrate the secrets of my inscrutable Volition in order to know the effects and the value of my Will; and if he does not know them, how can he speak of them?  Even more, the thing that he abhors the most is that the creature do my Will.  He does not care about whether the soul prays, goes to Confession, receives Communion, does penance or performs miracles; but the thing that harms him the most is that the soul do my Will.  In fact, as he rebelled against my Will, so was hell created in him – his unhappy state, the rage that consumes him.  So, my Will is hell for him, and every time he sees the soul who is submitted to my Will knowing Its qualities, value and sanctity, he feels his hell being doubled, because he sees the paradise, the happiness and the peace he lost, being created in the soul.  And the more my Will is known, the more tormented and furious he becomes.  So, how can he possibly speak to you about my Will, if It forms his hell?  And if he did speak to you, his words would form hell in you, because he knows my Will only to hate It, not to love It; and what is hated never brings happiness and peace.  And besides, his word is empty of grace, therefore he cannot confer the grace to do my Will.”
Vol. 16, September 9, 1923





why do you fear that it might be the enemy that puts you in this state?  When it is the enemy that makes one suffer, he casts desperation, impatience, disturbances; on the other hand, when it is I, I infuse love, patience and peace, light and truth.  Do you perhaps feel impatient, desperate, that you fear it might be the enemy?”  And I:  ‘No, my Jesus; on the contrary, I feel as though plunged into an immense and deep sea – your Will; and my only fear is that I might go out of the abyss of this sea.  But while I fear, I feel its waves rising more powerfully over me, plunging me even deeper.’  And Jesus:  “And this is why the enemy cannot get close – because the waves of the sea of my Will, while plunging you into the abyss of It, maintain the guard and keep even the shadow of the enemy far away.  In fact, he knows nothing of what the soul does and suffers in my Will, nor does he have the means, the ways or the doors to be able to enter into It; on the contrary, It is the thing which he abhors the most.  And if sometimes my wisdom manifests something of what the soul does in my Will, the enemy feels such rage as to feel his infernal pains being multiplied, because my Will, loved and fulfilled in the soul, forms paradise, while not loved and not fulfilled, it forms hell.  Therefore, if you want to be safe from any diabolical snare, take to heart my Will and living continuously in It.”

I heard a horrible din from afar, from some who were beating each other and roaring with such clamor as to strike fear.  And I, turning to my Jesus, said to Him:  ‘My Jesus, my Love, who is making such a din?  They seemed to me like enraged demons.  What do they want that they rage so much?’  And Jesus:  “My daughter, it really is them.  They would want you not to write about my Will; and when they see you write more important truths on the living in my Will, they suffer a double hell and they torment all the damned even more.  They fear so much that these writings on my Will might come out, because they see themselves losing their kingdom upon earth, which they acquired when man, withdrawing from the Divine Will, gave free step to his human will.  Ah! yes, it was precisely then that the enemy acquired his kingdom on earth; and if my Will could reign upon earth, my enemy, on his own, would shut himself up into the deepest abysses.  This is why they rage with such fury:  they feel the power of my Will in these writings, and at the mere thought that they might come out, they fly into a rage and try anything they can in order to impede a good so great.  You, however, do not pay attention to them, and learn from this to appreciate my teachings.”
Vol. 17, September 22, 1924






At most evil can only put on a temporary façade of false peace.  Unless things come from a foundation of truth they can not last long.  When there is no truth there is no love and without love there is no life to sustain it.  As it was in Jesus day so will it be again.






“My daughter, the more it seems that the world is apparently in peace, and they sing the praises of peace, the more they hide wars, revolutions and tragic scenes for poor humanity, under that ephemeral and masked peace.  And the more it seems that they favor my Church, and sing hymns of victories and triumphs, and practices of union between State and Church, the closer the brawl is which they are preparing against Her.  The same was for Me.  Up until they acclaimed Me as King and received Me in triumph, I was able to live in the midst of the peoples; but after my triumphant entrance into Jerusalem, they no longer let Me live; and after a few days they shouted at Me: ‘Crucify Him!’; and all taking arms against Me, they made Me die.  When things do not start from a foundation of truth, they have no strength to reign for a long time, because, since truth is missing, love is missing, and the life that sustains it is missing.  Therefore, what they were hiding easily comes out, and they turn peace into war, and favors into revenges.  Oh! how many unexpected things they are preparing.”
Vol. 18, January 24, 1926






When creatures apply themselves to these writings on the Divine Will however they will be transformed, spiritualized and divinized and then the Church will be renewed, which will transform the face of the earth.  At most the creature may not fully understand them as it will eclipse the human intellect but they will still find every word to be truth.




I see that these writings will be for my Church like a new sun which will rise in Her midst; and drawn by its blazing light, creatures will apply themselves in order to be transformed into this light and become spiritualized and divinized, in such a way that, as the Church will be renewed, they will transform the face of the earth.  The doctrine on my Will is the purest, the most beautiful, not subject to any shadow of the material or of interest, both in the supernatural and in the natural order.  Therefore, like sun, it will be the most penetrating, the most fecund, and the most welcomed and appreciated.  And being light, of its own it will make itself understood and will make its way.  It will not be subject to doubts or suspicions of error; and if some word is not understood, it will be because of too much light which, eclipsing the human intellect, will not allow them to comprehend the whole fullness of the truth.  However, they will find not a word which is not truth.  At the most, they will not be able to comprehend it fully.  Therefore, in view of the good which I see, I push you to neglect nothing in writing.  One saying, one effect, one simile about my Will can be like beneficial dew upon souls, just as dew is beneficial on the plants after a day of burning sun, or like a pouring rain after long months of drought.  You cannot understand all the good, the light, the strength contained in each word; but your Jesus knows it, and knows the ones whom it must serve and the good it must do.”

Every truth about the Divine Fiat is more prodigious than a physical miracle.  The words, alone, on the sanctity and power of the Fiat will resurrect the soul to their origin in God, heal them of the spiritual leprosy of sin, give them eyes to see the Kingdom of the Divine Will and a tongue to speak of it's mysteries.  More so in giving a Divine Will to each creature which contains within Itself all goods together. 



 


Each truth about my Eternal Fiat contains more power and prodigious virtue than if a dead man were resurrected, a leper were healed, a blind one could see, or a mute could speak.  In fact, my words on the sanctity and power of my Fiat will resurrect the souls to their origin; they will heal them from the leprosy produced by the human will.  They will give them the sight to be able to see the goods of the Kingdom of my Will, because until now they have been like blind.  They will give speech to many mute who, while they were able to say many other things, only for my Will were like many mute without speech; and then, the great miracle of being able to give to each creature a Divine Will which contains all goods.  What will It not give them when It will be in possession of the children of Its Kingdom?  This is why I keep you all occupied with the work of this Kingdom of Mine - and there is much to do in order to prepare the great miracle that the Kingdom of the Fiat be known and possessed.  Therefore, be attentive in crossing the endless sea of my Will, so that the order between Creator and creature may be established; in this way, through you, I will be able to make the great miracle that man return to Me – into the origin from which he came.”
Vol. 20, October 22, 1926





So there remains the work of spreading these truths, the truths of the Kingdom of the Divine Will in order to renew the face of the earth.  When someone only works only for human purposes it is exhausting and yields little reward, but when one works in the Divine Will they operate in the realm of truths that carry no physical weight but are of incalculable value, but the responsibility that comes with this is immense as each truth carries the weight of God and the loss of one truth effects all of mankind.

 





I saw two people before me.   One of them went on picking up rocks, old rags, rusty iron, pieces of clay - all things which are heavy and of very little value.   Poor one, he struggled and sweated under the weight of that rubbish; more so, since it did not give him the value necessary to satisfy his hunger.  The other one went on picking up grains of diamond, little gems and precious stones – all things which are very light but of incalculable value.  My sweet Jesus added:

“The one who keeps picking up rubbish is the image of one who operates for human purposes.  That which is human always carries the weight of matter.  The other is the image of one who operates in order to do the Divine Will.  What a difference between the two!  The grains of diamond are my truths – the knowledges regarding my Will which, picked up by the soul, form as many diamonds for her.  Now, if one loses some of that rubbish or does not pick it up, he will cause almost no harm; but if one loses or does not pick up one of these tiny grains of diamond, he will cause great harm, because they are of incalculable value and they weigh as much as a God can weigh.  And if it is lost because of someone who has the office of picking them up, what account will he not have to give, having caused the loss of a grain of infinite value, which could have done who knows how much good to the other creatures?”
