WORDS ON THE WILL OF GOD

'Maria, no longer go begging the love of creatures. 

Were they to give themselves entirely to thee, thou wouldst not be satisfied. 

God alone can suffice for thee. 

Maria, thou hast need of a heart which loves thee. 

Which understands thee.

It is the Heart of God thou needest. 

Speak to Me as thou wouldst to an earthly friend. 

To whom one tells everything. 

I know thee, I share thy sufferings. 





I offer Myself to be thy Model... 

and on this thou must carefully fully form thyself. 

Live in such a manner that Jesus may truly live in thee...

and rule all thy actions, thy desires and thy will. 

Dost thou understand with what perfection thou shouldest act...

if thou wouldst manifest Jesus living and reigning in thee? 

Even when thou art enduring cruel sufferings...

thy countenance must appear smiling. 

I desire thou shouldst be sweet and cordial toward all... 

but especially toward those who give thee occasions... 

of immolation and sacrifice.'


'Lóve causes the death of Nature

to make it rise again

to Grace.'
