first rejection that Jesus received from the hearts of creatures, and the
dear and charming little Baby placed His first act of being born, His

graces, His first sorrow, in the Heart of His Mama, so that what was
seen in the Son could be seen in His Mama.

Then, after this, the gracious little Baby came into my arms, and as He
squeezed me so very tightly, I felt Him entering into me, and I into Him.
And then He said to me: “My daughter, I wanted to embrace you as I

embraced My dear Mama as newly born, so that you too may receive
My first act of being born and My first sorrow, My tears, My tender
wailings, that you may be moved to compassion for My sorrowful state
at My birth. Had I not had My Mama in whom I could place all the good

My wailings, the cold and the pains that I suffered; and She echoed all
of My Acts, and with incessant thanksgivings She received everything.
There was a contest between Mother and Son I in giving, She in

receiving.

“As this little Humanity of Mine made Its first entrance upon earth, My

Divinity wanted to shine forth from It, in order to go around everywhere
and make the first sensible visit to all Creation. Heaven and earth all
received this visit of their Creator, except for man. They had never
received so much honour and glory as when they saw their King, their
