P. 91
Then, sighing, He added: “My daughter, if the sun had reason and saw
a plant, a being, that wanted to become sun, the sun would increase all
of its light, its heat and all of its effects over this being, so as to make it
become sun. And even though it would not deny its light and its effects
to the other beings because it is in the nature of light to diffuse and to
do good to all, wherever it is the fortunate being that received, all
together, all the reflections and all the goods that the sun contains,
would become sun. What glory, what contentment would the sun not
receive in being able to form another sun? The entire earth, for many
centuries, has never attested to it so much glory, so much love, by
receiving its many effects, as this one being that has turned into sun.
“By living in Our Fiat, the soul does nothing other than imitate her
Creator, and the Eternal Sun concentrates all of Its reflections upon her,
in such a way that she becomes the little sun, in the likeness of the
Divine Sun. Was this not precisely Our purpose and Our saying: ‘Let Us
make man in Our Image and Likeness’?
“To make him without his having to be like Us and carry within himself
the image of He who had created him, would be neither decorous nor
worthy of a work of Our hands; nor would it be power of that
regenerative breath that came out of Our womb to generate a being
dissimilar from Us. What would be said of a mother who generated, not
a child who had eyes, mouth, hands, feet, and would be similar to her in
all members at most, smaller than her in all members, but lacking
nothing of all the organs of the mother but generated a plant, a bird, a
stone, things that are dissimilar from her?
“It would be incredible things against nature and unworthy of a mother,
who was not able to infuse her image and all of her members in her
newborn. Now, if all things generate and form things similar to
themselves, much more so does God, first Generator, whose honour
and glory in forming the creatures was to form them as similar to
Himself. Therefore, My daughter, let your flight in My Will be
continuous, that It may concentrate Its rays upon you, and darting
through you, It may make of you Its little sun.”
After this, I was feeling as though tired and could not make up my mind
to write what my adored Jesus had told me. And Jesus, surprising me,
