✞ The human will serves as brush for Jesus in order to portray His image in the heart.
Volume 8 — Entry 42
This morning, on coming, blessed Jesus threw Himself into my arms as if He wanted to rest, and He said to me: “So must the soul rest in the arms of obedience – like a child rests safely in the arms of his mother. And one who rests in the arms of obedience receives all the divine colors, because when someone is truly sleeping, one can do to him whatever he wants; in the same way, when someone truly rests in the arms of obedience, it can be said that he is sleeping, and God can do to the soul whatever He wants.”
