The Book of Heaven
—Unofficial Version—

October 1, 1925

The Divine Will is the center of the Humanity of Our Lord. One who lives in It, lives in this center.

I was accompanying the pains of the Passion of my sweet Jesus according to my usual way, and I offered the very privation of Him and the torture it caused me, as attestation of my sorrowful love, for His relief and as compassion for His pains.  Now, while I was doing this, my beloved Good moved one arm within my interior, raising His right hand and letting rivulets of blood and of light flow from His fingers over my poor soul, which was withered and burned by the powerful blowing of His privation - and with such sadness that Jesus Himself was shaken; and moved to compassion, wanting to cheer me, He said to me:  “My daughter, courage, do not fear.  One who lives in my Will is in the center of my Humanity, because the Divine Will is in Me like the sun within its sphere:  even though the rays invade the earth, it never departs from up high, from its center; it remains always encircled within its sphere, in its majestic throne; and while its light reaches everywhere, dominating everything, everything serves as its footstool, as all await its beneficial light.  So was my Divine Will within Me – like center in the sphere of my Humanity; and from my sphere started the light, reaching everyone and every place.  This had been the first act of man - to reject my Supreme Will; therefore it was appropriate for my Humanity to take the first step toward It, centralizing this Eternal Will within Me, as center of life, and bringing It to man once again, through my life, my works and pains, so that he might return to his Creator, placing himself in the order for which he had been created.

Do you see, then, my daughter?  The soul who lives in my Will is in the center of my Humanity, and everything I did and suffered is all around her, and for her help.  If she is weak, it administers to her my strength; if shaded, my blood washes her and embellishes her; my prayers sustain her; my arms hold her tightly and cover her with my works.  In sum, everything is for her defense and help.  This is why the thought of my pains is as though natural in you – because, since you live in my Will, they surround you like many clouds of light and of grace.  Within the sphere of my Humanity, my Will placed my works, my steps, my words, my blood, my wounds, my pains, and everything I did, as though on the way, in order to call man and give him sufficient aids and means to save him and to make him come back again into the womb of my Will.  If my Will had wanted to enter the field on Its own in order to call man, he would have been frightened.  Instead, I wanted to call him with everything I did and suffered, like many enticements, pushes, encouragements and means, to make him return into my arms.  So, everything I did and suffered is the carrier of man to God.  Now, one who lives in my Will, by living in the center of my Humanity, takes all the fruits of everything I did and suffered, and enters the order of Creation; and my Will fulfills in him the full purpose for which he was created.  Others, then, who do not live in my Will, find the means to be saved, but do not enjoy all the fruits of Creation and of Redemption.”

Now, while my lovable Jesus was saying this, I said to Him:  ‘My Love, I don’t’ know – You tell me that I live in your Will, and then You leave me?  Ah! what a hard martyrdom You make me go through.  As You leave me, everything changes for me; I myself no longer recognize myself; everything dies for me – the light dies, the love, the good.  You alone maintain the beating of life in my poor soul; as soon as You depart and leave me, everything dies.  See, then, in what hard and painful conditions You leave me.  O please! have pity on me and do not leave me any more, for I can take no more.’  And while I wanted to say more, my Jesus, sighing, added:  “My daughter, be quiet, do not go any further - your words wound my Heart.  Oh! how I would like to remove from your heart this nail so hard – that I leave you, that I might leave you.  I too know that, for one who loves Me, this nail is unbearable, it kills one continuously, without pity.  Therefore, lay down the thought that I might leave you.  You should be convinced that, instead of leaving you, I penetrate more deeply into you, and I remain silent in the little ship of your soul; and this is so true, that nothing has moved within you:  the preparations that were there, are still there – they are all in the order; so much so, that it is enough for my Will to want it, and I give a little spin to the preparations which are there, and quickly I am with you.  And besides, how can I leave you?  One who does my Will and lives in It maintains whole the bonds of Creation which exist between Creator and creature, the bonds of Redemption, and the bonds between the Sanctifier and the ones who are being sanctified.  My Will seals all these bonds and renders the creature inseparable from Me.  Therefore, be sure that your Jesus does not leave you.”

Now, while He was saying this, I saw as though many threads of light bound to my heart.  Some of them were bound to all the created things; other threads of light were coming out from all that Jesus had done and suffered; others from the Sacraments.  May everything be for the glory of God, and for the good of my soul and of all souls.  Amen.
