“My Love, I want what You want. It is true that I feel the sacrifice of writing (reading), but for love of You, I will do everything.”
“My Jesus, my Love, the day is now beginning, and in Your Will I want to go through all creatures, so that, in rising from their sleep, they may all rise in Your Will, to give You the adoration of all intelligences, the love of all hearts, the rising of all their works and of all their beings into the Light which this day will make shine over all generations.”
VOLUME 24
February 3, 1929
So, I was continuing my round in the Creation and Redemption, recalling within my mind all the Acts done by God in order to follow them, giving, for each Act, homages, adoration, love, thanksgiving.
VOLUME 12
December 25, 1920
I squeezed Him so very tightly to myself, and according to my usual way, I fused myself in His Will in order to find the thoughts of all with mine, and surround shivering Jesus with adorations from all created intellects; in order to find the gazes of all, and make all look at Jesus and distract Him from crying; in order to find the mouths, the words, the voices of all creatures, that all might kiss Him so as not to make Him wail, and might warm Him with their breath.
VOLUME 3
November 26 1899
I began to do my usual adorations to all of His Holy Members, beginning with His Most Sacred Head.
“Great God, too little is my suffering, I am not content with the cross alone, but I also want the thorns and the nails; and if I do not deserve this, because I am unworthy and a sinner, certainly You can give me the dispositions in order to deserve it.”
24 HOURS OF THE PASSION
Sixth Hour
I too want to accompany You, so that if You stagger, I may sustain You.
I too, O my Jesus, prostrate myself with You, and with You I intend to do what You do.
Ah Love, to what a state I see You reduced! You are about to breathe Your last. Oh, my Good, my sweet Life, O please, do not die! Raise Your Face from this ground, which You wet with Your Most Holy Blood! Come into my arms! Let me die in Your place!
Therefore, my Love, I kiss Your most Holy Head.
Jesus, I compassionate You, and would like to place upon You as many Crowns of Glory; and in order to soothe You, I offer You all the angelic intelligences and Your own Intelligence, to give You an act of compassion and of reparation for all.
O Jesus, I kiss Your pitying Eyes, and in them I see all the evil gazes of creatures, which make tears and blood flow over Your Face. I compassionate You, and I would like to soothe Your Sight by placing before You all the pleasures that can be found in Heaven and on earth through Union of Love with You.
Jesus, my Good, I kiss Your most Holy Ears.
Oh insatiable Love, I compassionate You, and I want to console You by making resound in it all the harmonies of Heaven, the most sweet voice of dear Mama, the ardent accents of Magdalene, and of all the loving souls.
Jesus, my Life, I want to impress a more fervent kiss on Your Face, whose Beauty has no equal. Ah, this is the Face on which the Angels, like cupids, desire to fix, for the great Beauty that enraptures them. Yet, the creatures dirty it with spit, beat it with slaps, and trample it under foot. My Love, what daring! I would like to shout so loudly as to put them to flight! I compassionate You, and in order to repair for these insults, I go to the Most Holy Trinity, to ask for the Kiss of the Father and of the Holy Spirit, and the Divine Caresses of Their Creative Hands. I also go to the Celestial Mama, that She may give me Her kisses, the caresses of Her Maternal hands, and Her profound adorations; and I offer You everything, to repair for the offenses given to Your most holy Face.
My sweet Good, I kiss Your Most Holy Mouth, embittered by horrible blasphemies, by the nausea of drunkenness and gluttony, by obscene discourses, by prayers done badly, by evil teachings, and by all the evil that man does with his tongue. Jesus, I compassionate You, and I want to sweeten Your Mouth by offering You all the angelic praises and the good use of the tongue made by many holy Christians.
My oppressed Love, I kiss Your Neck, and I see it loaded down with ropes and chains, because of the attachments and the sins of creatures. I compassionate You, and in order to relieve You, I offer You the indissoluble Union of the Divine Persons; and fusing myself in this Union, I extend my arms toward You, and forming a sweet chain of love around Your Neck, I want to remove the ropes of the attachments, which almost suffocate You; and to console You, I press You tightly to my heart.
Divine Fortress, I kiss Your most Holy Shoulders.
I compassionate You, and in order to relieve You, I offer You Your most holy examples, the examples of the Queen Mama, and those of all the saints. And I, O my Jesus, letting my kisses flow over each one of these Wounds, want to enclose in them the souls who, by force of scandals, have been snatched from Your Heart, and so re-join the Flesh of Your Most Holy Humanity.
My labored Jesus, I kiss Your Breast, which I see Wounded by coldness, lukewarmness, lack of correspondence and ingratitudes of creatures. I compassionate You, and in order to relieve You, I offer You the reciprocal Love of the Father and the Holy Spirit – the perfect correspondence of the Three Divine Persons. And plunging into Your Love, O my Jesus, I want to shelter You in order to reject the new blows that creatures throw at You with their sins; and taking Your Love, I want to Wound them with it, that they may never again dare to offend You; and I want to pour it upon Your Breast, to soothe You and to heal You.
My Jesus, I kiss Your Creative Hands.
I compassionate You, and to give You relief, I offer You all the holy works, and the courage of the martyrs in giving their blood and life for love of You. In sum, O my Jesus, I would like to offer You all the good works, in order to remove from You the many nails of the evil works.
O Jesus, I kiss Your Most Holy Feet, always untiring in searching for souls.
My God and my Good, I compassionate You, and in order to console You, I offer You the steps of the good religious and of all the faithful souls, who expose their lives in order to save souls.
O Jesus, I kiss Your Heart. I compassionate You, and I want to soothe the bitterness of Your Heart, pierced three times, by offering You the Eternal Sweetnesses and the most sweet Love of dear Mama Mary, as well as those of all Your true lovers.
And now, O my Jesus, let my poor heart draw life from Your Heart, that I may Live only with Your Heart; and in each offense You will receive, let me be ever ready to offer You a relief, a comfort, a reparation, an act of love, never interrupted.
VOLUME 12
December 6, 1919
I was doing the adoration to my Crucified Jesus telling Him: “My Love, in Your Will I find all generations; and in the name of the whole human family, I adore You, I kiss You, I repair You for all. I give Your Wounds and Your Blood to all, so that all may find their salvation. And if the lost souls can no longer benefit from Your Most Holy Blood, nor love You, I take It in their place, in order to do what they should have done. I do not want Your Love to remain defrauded in anything on the part of creatures. I want to compensate, repair You, love You for all, from the first to the last man.”
24 HOURS OF THE PASSION
Twenty-first Hour
O my Jesus, I intend to repair for those who despair of the Divine Mercy at the point of death. My Sweet Love, inspire trust and unlimited confidence in You for all, especially for those who find themselves in the grips of agony; and by virtue of Your Word, concede to them Light, Strength and Help, to be able to die in a saintly way, and fly from this earth up to Heaven. O Jesus, enclose all souls, all of them, in Your Most Holy Body, in Your Blood, in Your Wounds. And by the Merits of this Most Precious Blood of Yours, do not allow even one soul to be lost! Together with Your Voice, may Your Blood cry out for all, again: “Today you will be with Me in Paradise.”
O my Jesus Crucified, I adore Your Most Precious Blood; I kiss Your Wounds one by one, intending to profuse in them all my love, my adorations, my most heartfelt reparations. May Your Blood be for all souls, Light in darkness, Comfort in sufferings, Strength in weakness, Forgiveness in guilt, Help in temptations, Defense in dangers, Support in death, and Wings to carry them all from this earth up to Heaven.
O Jesus, I come to You, and in Your Heart I form my nest and my home. O my Sweet Love, I will call everyone to You from within Your Heart; and if anyone wants to draw near to offend You, I will expose my breast, and I will not permit him to Wound You; even more, I will enclose him in Your Heart; I will speak about Your Love, and I will make the offenses turn into Love.
O Jesus, do not allow me ever to leave Your Heart; feed me with Your Flames, and give me Life with Your Life, that I may Love You as You Yourself yearn to be Loved.
Twenty-second Hour
With Magdalene I cling to Your Feet and, if it were possible, I would like to give my life to revive Yours.
My Jesus, I too abandon myself in You; give me the Grace to die completely in Your Love – in Your Will, and I pray that You never permit me, either in life or in death, to go out of Your Most Holy Will. Meanwhile I intend to repair for all those who do not abandon themselves perfectly to Your Most Holy Will, therefore losing or maiming the Precious Gift of Your Redemption. What is not the sorrow of Your Heart, O my Jesus, in seeing so many creatures escaping from Your Arms and abandoning themselves to themselves? Have pity on all, O my Jesus – have pity on me.
I kiss Your Head crowned with thorns, and I ask Your Forgiveness for my many thoughts of pride, of ambition and of self-esteem. And I promise You that every time a thought arises in me which is not completely for You, O Jesus, and that I find myself in occasions of offending You, immediately I will cry out: “Jesus and Mary, I commend my soul to You.”
O Jesus, I kiss Your Beautiful Eyes, still wet with tears and covered with dried Blood, and I ask Your Forgiveness for all the times I have offended You with evil and immodest gazes. I promise You that every time my eyes are led to look at things of the earth, immediately I will cry out: “Jesus and Mary, I commend my soul to You.”
O my Jesus, I kiss Your Most Sacred Ears, deafened by insults and horrible blasphemies up to the very last moments, and I ask Your Forgiveness for all the times I have listened to, or made others listen to discourses which move us away from You, and for all the evil discourses made by creatures. I promise You that every time I find myself in the occasion of hearing unseemly discourses, immediately I will cry out: “Jesus and Mary, I commend my soul to You.”
O my Jesus, I kiss Your Most Holy Face, pale, bruised and bleeding, and I ask Your Forgiveness for the many scorns, offenses and insults You receive from us, most miserable creatures, with our sins. I promise You that every time I have the temptation of not giving You all the Glory, the Love and the adoration which is due to You, immediately I will cry out: “Jesus and Mary, I commend my soul to You.”
O my Jesus, I kiss Your Most Sacred Mouth, dry and embittered. I ask Your Forgiveness for all the times I have offended You with my evil discourses; for all the times I have contributed to embittering You and increasing Your thirst. I promise You that every time the thought comes to me of making discourses which might offend You, immediately I will cry out: “Jesus and Mary, I commend my soul to You.”
O my Jesus, I kiss Your Most Holy Neck, and I can still see the marks of the chains and ropes which have oppressed You. I ask Your Forgiveness for the many bonds and the many attachments of the creatures, which have increased the ropes and the chains around Your most Holy Neck. And I promise You that every time I feel disturbed by attachments, desires and affections which are not for You, immediately I will cry out: “Jesus and Mary, I commend my soul to You.”
My Jesus, I kiss Your Most Holy Shoulders, and I ask Your Forgiveness for the many illicit satisfactions; Forgiveness for the many sins committed with the five senses of our body. I promise You that every time the thought comes to me of taking some pleasures or satisfactions which are not for Your Glory, immediately I will cry out: “Jesus and Mary, I commend my soul to You.’”
My Jesus, I kiss Your Most Holy Breast, and I ask Your Forgiveness for all the coldness, indifference, lukewarmness and horrendous ingratitude You receive from the creatures; and I promise You that every time I feel my love for You become cooler, immediately I will cry out: “Jesus and Mary, I commend my soul to You.”
My Jesus, I kiss Your Most Sacred Hands. I ask Your Forgiveness for all the evil and indifferent works; for many acts rendered malicious by love of self and self-esteem. I promise You that every time the thought comes to me of not operating only for love of You, immediately I will cry out: “Jesus and Mary, I commend my soul to You.’”
O my Jesus, I kiss Your Most Holy Feet, and I ask Your Forgiveness for the many steps, the many paths covered without righteous intention; for many who move away from You to go in search of the pleasures of the earth. I promise You that every time the thought comes to me of moving away from You, immediately I will cry out: “Jesus and Mary, I commend my soul to You.”
O Jesus, I kiss Your Most Sacred Heart, and I intend to enclose in It, with my soul, all the souls redeemed by You, so that all may be saved – no one excluded.
O Jesus, lock me in Your Heart, and close the doors, that I may see nothing but You. I promise You that every time the thought comes to me of wanting to go out of this Heart, immediately I will cry out: “Jesus and Mary, to You I give my heart and my soul.”

“Jesus, I love You; but my love is small, therefore I love You in Your Love, to make it great. I want to adore You with Your Adorations, pray in Your Prayer, thank You in Your Thanksgivings.”
May 22, 1919
“Jesus, I lay at Your feet the adoration, the subjection of the whole human family; I place in Your Heart the ‘I love You’ of all; on Your Lips I impress my kiss in order to seal the kiss of all generations; I clasp You with my arms in order to clasp You with the arms of all, to bring You the Glory of all the works of all creatures.”
January 9, 1920
“Eternal Majesty, I come to Your Feet in the name of the whole human family, from the first to the last man of the future generations, to adore You profoundly. At Your Most Holy Feet I want to seal the adorations of all; I come to recognize You in the name of all as Creator and Absolute Ruler of all. I come to love You for all and for each one; I come to requite You in Love for all, because of each created thing, in which You placed so much Love that the creature will never find enough love to repay You in Love. But in Your Will I find this Love, and wanting that my love, as well as the other acts, be complete, full and for all, I have come into Your Will where everything is Immense and Eternal, and where I can find Love to be able to Love You for all. So, I Love You for each star You have created; I Love You for all the drops of light and for all the intensity of heat which You have placed in the sun.”
“… in the name of all, adoration, love, gratitude and thanksgiving for everything.”

“In Your Fiat You gave me all this Love, and only in the Fiat can I return it to You.”

“May my mind rise in the Supreme Will, in order to cover all the intelligences of creatures with Your Will, so that all may rise in It; and in the name of all I give You the adoration, the love, the submission of all created intelligences.”
January 10, 1926
I was fusing all of myself in the Holy Divine Volition, and the littleness of my mind wandered within It. I could see It everywhere and in every place, always in the Act of Operating in the whole Creation. Oh! how I would have wanted to follow It, in order to give It my little requital of love in everything It was doing; my ‘thank you’, my profound adoration, my meager company.
VOLUME 19
May 23, 1926
Then, afterwards, my poor mind was wandering in the Holy Divine Will, doing my usual acts in It. It seemed to me that everything was mine, and as I went around through all created things to impress everywhere my ‘I love You,’ my adoration, my ‘Glory to my Creator’, I acquired New Knowledge of what God has done for the creature, and of how much He has Loved us. The Supreme Will seemed to delight in making known the New Surprises of Its Love, so that I might follow Its Acts in order for It to give me the right to possess what has come out of Its Creative Will. My littleness wandered amid Its Immense Goods.
VOLUME 21
May 24, 1927
“Jesus, my Love, I want Your Hands in mine, in order to give to our Celestial Father that Love and that Glory which You, individually, gave Him with Your Works while being on earth. Not only this, but I want to unite myself with You when You, Word of the Father, even from Eternity Operated together with Him with His very Works, Loving with Reciprocal Love and with Perfect Equality; and I want to Glorify You with that same Glory with which You Glorified Yourselves among the Three Divine Persons.
“But I am not content; I want to place my hands in Yours in order to flow together with Your Hands, in Your own Will, within the sun, to give You the glory of the light, of the heat, of the fecundity of the sun; in the sea, to give You the glory of its waves, of its continuous murmuring; in the air, to give You the glory of the singing of the birds; in the azure heaven, to give You the glory of its immensity. And in the flickering of the stars, in their twinkling, I make my voice flow, saying to You: ‘I love You.’ I want to flow in the flowery fields, to give You the glory and the adoration of their fragrances. There is no point in which I do not want to be, so that everywhere, You may feel Your little daughter, adoring You, loving You, glorifying You.”
VOLUME 26
April 12, 1929
I was all abandoned in the Divine Fiat; Its Light eclipsed my littleness and transported me up there, even into the Womb of the Eternal One, where nothing but Light, Sanctity, Beauty could be seen, that infused in me profound adoration, such that I felt my little existence changed into one single act of adoration for that God who so much Loved me and Loves me.
June 4, 1929
“Bow down, and let us adore, with double homage, our Creator. That Fiat which Created us is in my act, and with It I want to create New Love, New Adoration and Glory for our Creator.”

November 30, 1930
“I want to enter into the sun in order to find the Divine Will Operating in its light, so as to give to It all the beauty, the purity, the holiness, the power, that a human will operating in its light can contain. I want to enter into the azure heavens in order to embrace It and give It my will operating in the vastness of the heavens, in the multiplicity of the stars, to give It the glory, the love of a heaven, and many profound acts of adoration for as many as are the stars.”
VOLUME 29
March 16, 1931
“I would like to be heavens to be able to extend myself in everyone and everywhere—and in all points and over everyone—my love, my adoration, my glory toward my Creator. I would like to be sun, and have so much Light as to fill heaven and earth, and convert everything into Light and, in this Light, have my continuous cry: ‘I love You, I love You.’”
July 23, 1931
“My being has melted completely into love, into adoration—I have nothing left.”
September 21, 1931
I was continuing my acts in the Divine Volition, and I prayed my Highest Good, Jesus, to make the Sun of the Divine Will rise in each of my acts, so that I might give Him, in each of my acts, the love, the homage, the glory as if I were forming for Him, in each act of mine, a day of Divine Light, of Love, of profound Adoration, communicated to me, into my act, by His own Will. Oh! how I would like to say, in each of my acts, whether big or small: “I make a day for Jesus, to love Him more.”
VOLUME 36
December 18, 1938
“See how much I love You. I give You the sun to Love You, and I Love You with the same Love with which You Loved me in the sun; I give You the homage and the adoration of its light, the variety of its effects to Love You – its continuous act of light, to spread myself everywhere and put my ‘I love You’ in everything touched by its light.”
“See how much I love You – but it’s not enough, I want to love You more; so I enter into its Inaccessible, Immense, Eternal Light which never ends. From within that Light I want to Love You with Your Eternal Love.”

January 29, 1919
I was doing the adoration to the Wounds of Blessed Jesus, and at the end I recited the Creed, intending to enter into the Immensity of the Divine Will, in which are all the acts of creatures, past, present and future, and even those acts which the creature should do and, because of negligence and wickedness, she has not done. And I was saying: “My Jesus, my Love, I enter into Your Volition, and with this Creed I intend to redo, to repair, all the acts of faith which creatures have not done, all the disbeliefs, and the adoration which is due to God as Creator.”
“But You, my Life, give me Strength, and do not leave the poor little ignorant one on her own.”
“My Love, if there is so much Good about this Living in the Divine Will, why have You not manifested it before?”
February 24, 1919
In one instant we found ourselves before this Supreme Majesty, and in the name of all, we expressed our love, thanksgiving, adoration, for having created us with such an Excess of Love, and endowed us with so many beautiful qualities.
April 7, 1919
“Jesus, I multiply my thoughts in Your Will, to give to each one of Your Thoughts the kiss of a Divine Thought, an adoration, a recognition of You, a reparation, a love of Divine Thoughts, as if another Jesus were doing it. This, in the name of all and for all the human thoughts, past, present and future; and I intend to compensate even for the intelligences of lost souls. I want that the glory on the part of creatures be complete, and that no one miss the roll call; and whatever they do not do, I do it in Your Will, to give You Divine and Complete Glory.”
“Jesus, I multiply myself in Your Gazes, so that I too may have as many gazes for as many times as You have looked at the creature with Love. I multiply myself in Your Tears, so that I too may cry for all the sins of creatures, to be able to give You gazes of Divine Love and Divine Tears in the name of all, to give You Complete Glory and reparation for all the gazes of all creatures.”
VOLUME 13
September 6, 1921
“My Love, I enter into Your Will, and here I find all the Thoughts of Your Mind and all those of creatures. I surround Your Thoughts with my thoughts and with those of all my brothers, and then I unite them together, making them one in order to give You the Homage, the Adoration, the Glory, the Love, the Reparation of Your own Intelligence.”
VOLUME 19
May 3, 1926
“Supreme Majesty, I come in the name of all, from the first to the last man which will exist on earth, to give You all the homages,
the adorations, the praises, the love that each creature owes You, and to make all reparations, for all and for each sin.”
May 6, 1926
I was fusing myself in the Holy Divine Volition according to my usual way, and I prayed the Celestial Mama to be with me and to give me Her hand, so that, guided by Her, I might requite my God with all the love, the adoration and the glory that everyone owes Him.
August 8, 1926
“It is Your Love that Loves You, Your Adorations that Adore You, Your Prayers that Pray You; it is Your Will that, Investing me, makes me do what You do, to give it back to You as Your own Things.’”
VOLUME 20
October 15, 1926
“My Jesus, Your Will embraces and encloses everything, and I, in the name of the first creature that came out of Your Creative Hands, up to the last one that will be created, intend to repair for all the oppositions of the human wills made against Yours, and to take within me all the Acts of Your Adorable Will that the creatures have rejected, in order to return them all with Love and Adoration; in such a way that there may be no Act of Yours without the correspondence of one act of mine, so that, in finding my little act as though bilocated in each one of Your Acts, You may be satisfied, and may come to Reign Triumphantly upon earth. Is it perhaps not true that Your Eternal Fiat wants to find in the human acts the support on which to dominate? Therefore, in each one of Your Acts, I offer You mine as the Field on which You can lay Your Kingdom.”
October 24, 1926
I was doing my usual round in the Divine Volition, and in each thing I placed my “I love You”, asking that the Kingdom of the Fiat may come and be known upon earth. And reaching all the Acts that my Sweet Jesus did in Redemption, I asked, in each Act, for the coming of His Kingdom; and I thought to myself: “Before, in going around so much, both in all Creation and in Redemption, I used to place only my ‘I love You,’ my adoration, my ‘thank You.’ And now, why can I not do without asking for the Kingdom of the Fiat? I feel I would want to overwhelm everything – the most tiny and the greatest thing, Heaven and earth, the very Acts of Jesus and Jesus Himself – and force them, so that everything and everyone may say, together with me: ‘We want the Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat. We want It Reigning and Dominating in our midst.’ More so, since all want It; the very Acts of Jesus, His Life, His Tears, His Blood, His Wounds, say from within: “May Our Kingdom come upon earth.” So I enter into the Act of Jesus, and I repeat along with it: “May the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat come soon.’”
November 2, 1926
“Sovereign Queen, I come to hide my little love in the great Sea of Your Love, my adoration toward God in the Immense Ocean of Yours. I hide my thanksgivings in the Sea of Yours; I hide my supplications, my sighs, my tears and pains in the Sea of Yours, so that my sea of love and Yours may be one, my adoration and Yours may be one, my thanksgivings may acquire the vastness of Your own boundaries; my supplications, tears and pains may become one single sea with Yours, so that I too may have my seas of love, of adoration, etc. And just as Your Sovereign Height impetrated the longed-for Redeemer with this, I too may present myself before the Divine Majesty with all these seas, in order to ask, to beseech – to implore the Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat.”
“My Queen Mama, I must use Your very Life, Your very Seas of Love and of Graces, to conquer It and make It concede Its Kingdom upon earth, just as You won over It to let the Eternal Word descend. Don’t You want to help Your little daughter, and give me Your Seas, to make me obtain that the Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat may come soon upon earth?”
VOLUME 24
May 30, 1928
I was doing my round in the Divine Fiat, gathering the whole Creation, all together, in order to bring It before the Supreme Majesty as the most beautiful homage, the most profound adoration and the most intense and extensive love for He who had Created It. It seemed to me that there was nothing more beautiful I could bring to my Creator than the Magnificence and the continuous Prodigy of His own Works.
Then, I continued on with my round, and I kept placing my Divine Fiat, not only in all Creation, but also in all the acts done by Adam in his state of innocence, in those done by the Virgin Queen, as well as in those done by Our Lord, sending them like an ordered army around the Divinity, to ask for Its Kingdom.
“Give me Your Divine Fiat.”
July 23, 1928
Continuing in my usual abandonment in the Supreme Fiat, I wished to embrace everyone and everything, so that everything might become Divine Will…
Then, I was continuing my round in the Divine Volition to bring all created things to my Creator—heavens, sun and everything—as profound adoration to my God, and to be able to say to Him: “Heavens, stars, sun, sea You gave me, and I give You everything back as the requital of my love.”
VOLUME 29
March 2, 1931
I was continuing my acts in the Divine Will, and I kept offering the sacrifices that the Saints of the Old Testament did, those of my Celestial Mama, all the Sacrifices of my Beloved Jesus, and so on with all the rest. The Divine Will placed them all in order for me, before my mind, and I kept offering them as the Most Beautiful Homage to my Creator.
Then, I continued my acts in the Divine Will; I wanted to embrace everything in order to place in each created thing my adoration, my love, my gratitude to He who had Loved me so much and had Created so many things for Love of me.
May 19, 1931
I was continuing my acts in the Divine Volition, and uniting myself to the Acts that It did in Creation, in order to give It the homage, the love, the adoration for each thing Created for Love of creatures.

March 18, 1937
I was doing my round in the Divine Fiat in order to follow, for as much as is possible for me, Its Divine Acts, that is to say, the Creation and all the holy acts of the creatures, not excluding those of my Celestial Mother, nor those of my dear Jesus. But the great thing was that as I retraced them, they made themselves mine. The Divine Volition gave them to me, and I, as if I would have a right over everything, offered them to my Creator as the Most Beautiful Homage, the Most Intense Love, the Most Profound Adoration, to He who had Created me. I felt myself invested by the sun, by the sky with all the stars, by the wind, by everything. Everything was mine because everything was of the Divine Will.

And I was wandering around in the blue vault, thinking to myself: “This Heaven serves as a vault for the residents of the earth, and as a pavement for the Celestial Residents. So, since it serves everyone, all have the duty to adore the One who, with so much Love, Created this Celestial Vault to give to us.” So I called all the Angels, the Saints and all the residents of the earth with me, so that all would return love, adoration, glory and thanksgiving to our Creator, for He Loved us so much that He gave us this Heaven. In the Divine Will I could call and embrace everyone—as if all were one, they loved with me.
YEARNINGS FOR SANCTITY
By Luisa Piccarreta, the Little Daughter of the Divine Will
At the beginning of her mystical life
O Jesus, by your infinite Mercy, make me holy!
You demand of me to edify my family, my neighbor, my friends; You ask that I make virtue loved, that I draw souls to You. And how can I ever make it, poor as I am, so lacking in fervor, humility and patience? O please, for love of those souls, at least, who cost blood to your Heart, make me holy, O my God, make me holy.
But what need do I have to present to You so many reasons? Are You not infinite Goodness and Generosity? Could You, O beloved of my soul, allow that a daughter of yours, who opens her heart to You, entrusts to You her yearnings, asks You only that she may be holy, would remain prostrated before You without answering her? Would You not listen to her in the greatness of your Mercy?
And even when, because of my constant ingratitude, You would want to reject me, could You deny this grace to your Blessed Mother Mary and mine, who asks You for it on my behalf, presenting all of Her compassion for your sorrows? Could You deny it to my Guardian Angel, who continually offers You His celestial adorations in order to obtain it for me?
O Jesus, by your infinite Mercy, make me holy!
O my Jesus, I confess myself unworthy of any favor, but when I ask You that I may be holy, what do I ask of You, after all, other than that the designs of your Redemption be fulfilled in me, and that your goodness may triumph in my malice, in my rejections and in my reluctance?
O my Love, You are Omnipotent – set me afire, burn me to ashes, consume me in your flames, let it be that I may never again offend You! That I may die to myself; that I may make of this little while of my life that is left one single act of expiation, of gratitude, of adoration and of apostolate – one single act of immolation and of most pure love. O Jesus, may I live all absorbed in You, drawn and genuflected with my spirit, always before your Sacramental Majesty. Even more, may I, O Jesus, truly live of your very Sacramental Eucharistic Life, which is all an affable mystery of hiddenness, of operosity and of love.
O Jesus, by your infinite Mercy, make me holy!
