2 TIMOTHY 2:21:

“If anyone cleanses himself from what is unfit, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work”.

BOH VOL 17 June 3, 1925

“If I came upon earth, the first act was precisely this: to make known the Will of my Father, in order to bind It again to the creatures. The pains, the humiliations, my hidden life and the whole immense sea of the pains of my Passion, were remedies, medicines, supports, light, in order to make my Will known, because, with this, I would have man, not only saved, but holy.

With my pains I placed him in safety; with my Will I gave him back the sanctity lost in the terrestrial Eden. Had I not done this, my love, my work, would not have been complete as they were in Creation, because my Will alone has the virtue of rendering complete Our works toward the creatures, and the works of the creatures toward Us.

My Will makes one think differently; It makes one look at my Will in all created things, speak with the echo of my Will, operate through the veils of my Will. In a word, one does everything, all at once, according to my Supreme Volition, while the other virtues act slowly, little by little.

My Redemption Itself, without the first act of my Will, serves to dress the deepest wounds; as medicine for man, so as not to let him die; as antidote, so as not to let him fall into hell.

Therefore, take to heart my Will alone, if you really want to love Me and make yourself a saint.”

PRAYER FOR THE DAY:

“My Jesus, in Your Will as though from one single point, I see all generations; and prostrating myself before the Supreme Majesty, I take the reciprocal love of the Divine Persons, Their perfect adoration, the sanctity, always one, of Their Will, and I offer them in the name of all, as requital of love, adoration, submission and union which every creature should give to her Creator.

I want to unite Heaven and earth, Creator and creature, that they might embrace and exchange the kiss of the union of their wills.”
