The Book of Heaven

How God does not count the time, but the acts that we do. Example of Noah. The good that a prolonged and continuous sacrifice possesses. How each act of creature possesses its distinct seed.

My flight in the Divine Fiat continues, nor can my poor mind be without going around in Its innumerable acts; I feel that a supreme force keeps it as though fixed in the works of my Creator, and it goes round and round, always, without ever tiring; and – oh! how many beautiful surprises it finds, now in Creation, now in Redemption, as blessed Jesus makes Himself the narrator of how, in what surprises me, there is nothing other than a greater invention of His Love.  So, while I was going around in Eden and in the times before His coming upon earth, I was thinking to myself:  ‘And why did Jesus take so much time to come to redeem the human kind?’  And Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:  “My daughter, Our infinite Wisdom, when It must give a good to the creature, does not count the time, but the acts of the creatures, because before the Divinity there exist no days and years, but one single perennial day, and therefore We do not measure the time, but the acts that they have done are counted by Us.  Therefore, in that time which to you seems so long, the acts wanted by Us in order to come to redeem man had not been done.  And only the acts determine the coming of a good - not the time.  More so, since they were forcing Our Justice to exterminate them from the face of the earth, as it happened in the Flood; and only Noah, by obeying Our Will and through the lengthiness of his long sacrifice of building the ark, deserved to be saved with his family, and to find in his acts the continuation of the long generation in which the promised Messiah was to come.       

A prolonged and continuous sacrifice possesses such attraction and enrapturing force before the Supreme Being, as to make Him decide to give great goods and continuation of life to the human kind.  If Noah had not obeyed and had not sacrificed himself in carrying out a work so long, he himself would have been swept away in the Flood, and since he would not have saved himself, the world, the new generation, would have ended.  See what a prolonged and continuous sacrifice means; it is so great that one places oneself in safety, and makes the new life arise in others, as well as the good that We have established to give.  This is why, for the Kingdom of my Divine Will, I wanted your long and continuous sacrifice of many years of bed.  Your long sacrifice placed you in safety, more than ark in the Kingdom of my Divine Will, and it inclines my Goodness to give a good so great, of making It reign in the midst of creatures.”

After this, I continued my round in the Divine Fiat, to bring all the acts of creatures as homage to my Creator; and I thought to myself:  ‘If I can gather everything that they have done, and enclose everything in the Divine Volition, will they not change into acts of Divine Will?’  And my sweet Jesus added:  “My daughter, in all the acts of creatures, each of them possesses its seed according to how it has been done:  if it has not been done in my Divine Fiat, it does not possess Its seed, therefore it can never be act of my Will, because in the act of doing it, Its seed of light was missing, which has the virtue of changing it into sun, since Its seed of light would be present as prime act in the act of the creature.  In the acts of creatures it happens that, if a person has the seed of flowers, by sowing it, he will have flowers; and if he sows the seed of fruits, he will have fruits; and neither will the seed of flowers give fruits, nor will that of fruits give flowers, but each one will give according to the nature of its seed.  The same with the acts of creatures:  if in the act there was a good intent, a holy purpose, to please Me, to love Me, in each act one will see the seed of goodness, in another the seed of sanctity, the seed of pleasing Me, the seed of loving Me.  These seeds are not light, but they symbolize, some the flower, some the fruit, some a little plant, and some a precious gem; and I feel the homage of the flower, of the fruit, and so forth – but not the homage of a sun.  And as all these acts are gathered, to enclose them in my Fiat, they remain as they are – each one with the nature that the seed gave it; and they appear as acts that the creature can do, not as acts that my Divine Will can do with Its seed of light in the acts of creatures.  The seed of Divine Will is not given by It, if not when the creature lives in It, and gives It the first place of honor in her acts.”
