*BOH VOL 36 May 19, 1938*
“Poor daughter of mine, you haven’t eaten, this is why you have no strength. It’s two days since you have taken any food, because you were not at peace, so I couldn’t feed you with my truths. My truths are food for the soul but give also strength to the body. By being so troubled you wouldn’t have understood me neither would you have been disposed to take such a delicious food.
You must know that peace is the door through which truth enters – the first kiss – the invitation of the creatures disposed to listen, to let it speak. Therefore, if you want me to give you a lot of food go back to your state of peace.
Furthermore, during these days you’ve been so troubled that Heaven, Angels and Saints have been trembling over you. They felt a bad air which did not belong to them coming from you. So, they all prayed for you to find your peace again.
Peace is the smile of Heaven, the source of Celestial joys. Look at your Jesus, I am never troubled over any offense they can give me. I can say that my Throne is peace.
So I want you wholly peaceful, my daughter, because in this mode, too, we have to adapt ourselves and to look alike: peaceful me, peaceful you. Otherwise the Kingdom of my Will cannot be established in you, since It is a Kingdom of Peace.”

*PRAYER OF THE DAY:*
“My Jesus, I would like to make You content, I don’t want to make You sigh anymore. May I live in Your Fiat, so that the night will be over for me and I will enjoy the fullness of the day; or better still, every act I do in It will be a new day, bringing new graces, new love and unexpected joys. All the virtues will have a celebration for me in their place of honor; like many princesses they will court you Jesus, and my soul.
I will form in myself Your Throne of brightest light, where You will dominate as a King. In all freedom You will dominate my whole being, even my breathing. You will court me with all Your works, Your pains, Your steps, Your love, Your own strength, to be my defense, my help and my food.‟
