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,


                                                              91
