1 Peter 1: 8 – 9
“Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls.”

BOH VOL 14 April 6, 1922
Now, in this state I tried to fuse myself in the Holy Will of God, and I said:
“My Love, in your Will what is yours is mine – all created things are mine. The sun is mine, and I give it to You in return, so that all the light and heat of the sun, in each drop of light and heat, may tell You that I love You, I adore You, I bless You, I pray You for all. The stars are mine, and in each flickering of the stars I seal my “I love You‟, infinite and immense, for all. The plants, the flowers, the water, the fire, the air, are mine, and I give them to You in return, that all of them may say to You, in the name of all: “I love You with that eternal love with which You created us.‟ But if I wanted to say everything I would be too long.
Then Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter, how beautiful are the prayers and the acts done in my Will – how the creature is transformed in God the Creator Himself, and gives Him back the requital for what He has given to her. I created everything for man and I gave everything to him as gift!
In my Will the creature rises up to her God and Creator, and finds Him in the act in which He created all things to give them to her as gift; and she, trembling before the multiplicity of so many gifts, and not having within herself the creative power to be able to create as many things for as many as she has received – she offers His own things to requite Him in love. Sun, stars, flowers, water, fire, air, I gave to you to give you love; and you, grateful, accepted them, and putting my love in circulation, you gave Me the requital for them. So, sun I gave you, and sun you gave Me; stars, flowers, water etc. I gave you, and you gave them back to Me. The notes of my love resounded again over all created things, and with one voice they gave Me the love which I made run over all Creation.
In my Will the soul places herself at the level of her Creator, and in His own Will she receives and she gives. Oh! what a contest between creature and Creator! If all could see it, they would remain stupefied at seeing that in my Will the soul becomes a little god – but everything by virtue of the power of my Will.”

PRAYER FOR THE DAY:
“Celestial Mama, how much I must thank You for the great love You have for me, and because, in everything You do, You always have a thought for me, and You prepare for me and give me such graces, that Heaven and earth are moved and enraptured together with me; and we all say: “Thank you! Thank you!”
