daughter, when you die, the whole Creation will invest you, and you will
            pass into Heaven in a flash. Aren’t you happy?”


            January 23, 1927
            How the Divine Fiat is powerful magnet that draws God to the

            creature. How the human will is more than earthquake, and how it
            is exposed to all thieves.


            As I continued to be more sick than usual, my sweet Jesus made
            Himself seen not Himself alone, but together with the Three Divine
            Persons. They all surrounded me, and I remained in Their midst, nor

            could I see anything but Their Supreme Height and the immense light
            that surrounded Them.


            And all three of Them said to me: “We have come to make a visit to our
            daughter who is sick. Our Will, more than powerful magnet, drew Us
            and called Us from Heaven to make Us come to you; nor could We do
            without coming to cheer she who is firstborn daughter of Our Will, and

            to keep her a little company in her sufferings. The strength of Our Fiat is
            irresistible for Us, and surrendering to Its strength is happiness to Us.”
            Now, who can say what I felt and comprehended while being in Their

            midst? I do not have the words to express myself. Then, since
            obedience had told me that I should have something to eat, while I was
            unable to take anything, in order to obey, before Jesus came, I had

            taken a few spoonful’s of broth, and I felt it inside my throat, unable to
            go down into my stomach. I told Jesus to let me obey, and Jesus, all
            goodness, passed His holy hand from my throat to my stomach, making

            it go down to my stomach so that I could digest it; in such a way that I
            did not bring it up, as I usually do every day that whatever I take, I bring
            up. Infinite goodness of Jesus for me, who am the littlest and poorest
            creature.


            Then, after this, I remained afflicted, because I thought that They would
            take me with Them; and since They didn’t, I felt sad. And Jesus, to

            cheer me, placed Himself with His face in front of my chest, and as He
            breathed over me, a light came out of His breath, that served not only
            for my soul, but also to recompose my whole body. As the breath would
            cease, my body would fall apart; and Jesus, to cheer me, said to me:

            “My daughter, courage, don’t you see that the mere breath and light of

                                                              136
