The Book of Heaven
—Unofficial Version—

June 6, 1904

It takes courage, fidelity and greatest attention to follow what the Divinity operates within us.

Continuing in my usual state, He made Himself seen for a little from within my interior - first Himself alone, and then all Three Divine Persons, but They were all in profound silence.  I continued my usual interior work in Their presence, and it seemed that the Son would unite with me and I would do nothing but follow Him.  But everything was silence, and in this silence I would do nothing but identify myself with God, and my whole interior, my affections, heartbeats, desires, breaths, would become profound adorations to the Supreme Majesty.  Then, after spending some time in this state, it seemed that all Three of Them were speaking, though one single voice was formed, and They said to me:  “Our beloved daughter, courage, fidelity and greatest attention in following what the Divinity operates in you, because everything you do, it is not you who does it, for you do nothing other than give the Divinity your soul as residence.  It happens to you as to a poor woman who had a little hovel, and the king asks for it as his residence, and she gives it to him and does everything the king wants.  So, since the king resides in that little hovel, it contains riches, nobility, glory and all goods.  But to whom do they belong?  To the king; and if the king wants to leave, what remains to the poor one?  She is left always with her poverty.”
