The soul who lives in the Divine Will is always equal to herself. The
order of providence in the Incarnation and in the manifestations of
the Holy Magi.

I was doing my usual acts in the Supreme Volition, and my sweet Jesus
came out from within my interior; and stretching out His arms to me, He

embraced me, but He clasped me so tightly to Himself, that I remained
completely covered with Jesus. And He said to me: “My daughter, I am
not content if I do not see you completely covered with Me, and so
dissolved in Me, as to no longer be able to recognise yourself in you,

but only Me in you.”

Then He added: “My daughter, one who lives in the Divine Will is

always equal to herself. Her Acts are symbolised by light, that diffuses
equally to the back and to the front, to the right and to the left. At the
most, if it contains greater intensity of light, it expands more; but it
diffuses always equally in expanding the circumference of light around

itself.

“Now, as for the acts done in My Will, symbolised by light, as the act of

the creature enters into My Will, it embraces past, present and future;
and not lacking the fullness of light, it expands everywhere and, as
though in one blow, it takes everyone within the circumference of its

endless light. Therefore, no one, as much good as he might do, can say
to one who lives in the Divine Fiat: ‘I am similar to you’; but she alone
can say: ‘I am similar to He who created me whatever He does, I do.

One is the light that invests us, one is the strength, one is the Will.’”

Then, after this, I was thinking about the Holy Magi, when they visited
the little Baby Jesus in the grotto of Bethlehem; and my always lovable

Jesus told me: “My daughter, see the order of My Divine Providence: for
the great portent of My Incarnation, I chose and made use of a Virgin,
humble and poor; and, as My custodian, who acted as father to Me, the

virgin Saint Joseph, who was so poor that he needed to work in order to
support our lives. See how, in the greatest works and the mystery of the
Incarnation could not be greater We make use of people whose
outward appearance attracts no one’s attention, because dignities,

sceptres, riches, are always fumes that blind the soul and prevent her
