June 29: “What I recommend to you is that the Divine Will be your life, your breath, the beating of your heart, your continuous motion. It is the greatest miracle that the Lord can make for you, and the highest sanctity we can possibly reach.”

BOH VOL 13 June 6, 1921

“My daughter, the greatest miracle that my Omnipotence can perform is for a soul to live in my Fiat. Do you think it is trivial that my Will, Holy, Immense, Eternal, would descend into a creature,and putting my Will and hers together, I dissolve her in Me, and make Myself life of the whole operating of the creature, even of the littlest things?

So, her heartbeat, the word, the thought, the motion, the breath, are of the God living in the creature. She conceals Heaven and earth within herself, and, in appearance, one sees a creature.

Greater grace, a prodigy more portentous, a sanctity more heroic than my Fiat, I could not give, See, the work of Creation is great; the work of Redemption is even greater; my Fiat making the creature live in my Will surpasses both one and the other.

In fact, in Creation, my Fiat created and put out my works, but did not remain as center of life in the created things. In Redemption, my Fiat remained as center of life in my Humanity, but did not remain as center of life in the creatures; rather, if their will does not adhere to Mine, they render vain the fruits of my Redemption.

But with my Fiat – making the creature live in my Will – I remain as center of life of the creature; and therefore I repeat to you, as other times, that my Fiat Voluntas Tua will be the true glory of the work of Creation and the fulfillment of the abundant fruits of the work of Redemption.

Here is the reason why I want nothing else from you but that my Fiat be your life, and that you look at nothing other than my Will: because I want to be as center of your life.”

PRAYER OF THE DAY:

In everything, O my Jesus, even in the inmost fibers of your Heart, I impress my “I love You” for myself and for all.

Your Will makes everything present to me, and nothing do I want to leave out, in which my “I love You” is not impressed. Your little daughter of your Will feels the duty, if there is nothing else she can do for You, that You may have at least a little “I love You” for everything You have done for me and for all!”
