The Book of Heaven
—Unofficial Version—

January 6, 1906

Prayer is music to the hearing of Jesus, especially if it is of a soul who is conformed to His Will.

Continuing in my usual state, my blessed Jesus came for just a little, and while I was praying, clasping my whole being, He told me:  “My daughter, prayer is music to my hearing, especially when a soul is all conformed to my Will, in such a way that nothing can be seen in her interior but a continuous attitude of life of Divine Will.  With this soul it is as if another God would come out and play this music for Me.  Oh, how delightful it is! – to find one who matches Me and can render Me divine honors.  Only one who lives in my Will can reach such a point, because all other souls, even if they did and prayed much, would always give Me things and prayers that are human – not divine; therefore they do not have that power and that attraction over my hearing.”
