Divinity, to receive Their embraces, and to give Them my own. And so

            the Angels, for whom my desires were commands, picked Me up, and
            carrying Me on their wings, brought Me into the loving arms of my

            Celestial Father. Oh! with how much love They awaited Me. I was

            coming from the exile, and the brief pauses of separation between Me
            and Them were the cause of new fires of love; they were new gifts that

            They prepared for Me, to give them to Me; and I would find new devices

            to ask for pity and mercy for my children who, living in the exile, were
            under the lash of Divine Justice. And dissolving Myself all in love, I said

            to Them: “Adorable Trinity, I feel happy I feel Myself Queen, nor do I

            know what unhappiness and slavery is. On the contrary, because of
            your Will reigning in Me, the joys, the happinesses, are so great and so

            many that, little as I am, I cannot embrace them all. But in so much
            happiness, there is a vein of intense bitterness in my little Heart: I feel in

            It my children unhappy, slave to their rebellious will. Have pity, Holy

            Father have pity. O please! make my happiness whole make happy
            these unhappy children, whom I carry, more than Mother, within my

            maternal Heart. Let the Divine Word descend upon earth, and

            everything will be granted. And I will not come down off of your paternal
            knees if You do not give Me the deed of grace, that I may bring to my

            children the good news of their Redemption.”


            The Divinity was moved at my prayers, and filling Me with new gifts,
            They said to Me: “Return to the exile and continue your prayers. Extend

            the Kingdom of Our Will in all your acts, for at the appropriate time We

            will make You content.” But They did not tell Me either when or where
            He would descend.


            So I would depart from Heaven only to do the Divine Will. This was the

            most heroic sacrifice for Me, but I did it gladly, so that the Divine Will

            alone might have full dominion over Me.


            Now listen to Me, my child. How much did your soul cost Me, to the
            point of embittering the immense sea of my joys and happinesses.

            Every time you do your will, you render yourself a slave, and you feel

                                                              37
