marriage too, as long as the Divine Will is present in them, as well as

the exact sacrifice of one’s duties. But the great part are indolent and
lazy, and not only do they not make themselves saints, but they make

of their state, some a purgatory, and some a hell.

So, as I learned that I was to leave the Temple, I did not say a word to

anyone, waiting for God Himself to move the external circumstances to
make Me fulfil His adorable Will, as indeed it happened. The superiors

of the Temple called Me and said to Me that it was their will, and also

the custom of those times, that I prepare Myself for marriage. I
accepted. Miraculously, among many, the choice fell upon Saint

Joseph; and so the marriage was formed and I left the Temple.

Therefore, I pray you, child of my Heart, that in all circumstances you
take to heart the Divine Will alone, if you want the divine designs to be

accomplished over you.

The Soul: Celestial Queen, your child entrusts herself to You. With my
trust, I want to wound your Heart; and may this wound always say in

your maternal Heart: “Fiat! Fiat! Fiat!”, so your little child always asks

from You.

Little Sacrifice: Today, to honour Me, you will come onto my knees
and will recite fifteen Glory Be’s to thank the Lord for all the graces He

granted Me up to the fifteenth year of my life, especially for having given

Me the company of a man so holy, as was Saint Joseph.

Ejaculatory Prayer: Powerful Queen, give me the weapons to wage
battle, to make me conquer the Will of God.
