BOH VOL 23 Sept. 28, 1927
“My daughter, my Divine Will was given from the very beginning of Creation as life of the creatures, and It took on the
commitment to maintain this life in them whole, beautiful, in its full vigor, administering, in each act of creature, a divine act of Its own – an act of the height of Its sanctity, of Its light, of Its power and beauty. It would place Itself in waiting – waiting for their act in order to give Its own, in such a way as to make in it a portent of divine life worthy of Its power and wisdom.
In order to comprehend this, it is enough to say that my Divine Volition was to form as many Lives of Itself in each creature, and therefore It would place the whole of Its ability and the infinite qualities It possessed in the exercise of working.
How beautiful these divine lives in the creatures would have been. In looking at them, We were to find in them Our reflection, Our image, the echo of Our happiness. What joy, what feast Creation would have been for Us and for the creatures!
Now, you must know that one who does not do my Divine Will and does not live in It, wants to destroy his own divine life within himself, which he was to possess. To destroy one's own life – what crime! Who would not condemn one who wanted to destroy his own corporal life, or one who did not want to take food, reducing himself to being emaciated, infirm, incapable of anything?
Now, one who does not do my Will destroys his life which the divine goodness wants to give him; and one who does my Will, but not always, and does not live in It, because he lacks continuous and sufficient food, is the poor ill one, without strength, emaciated, incapable of doing true good; and if it seems that he does something, it is without life, strained, because my Will alone can give it life. What crime, my daughter, what crime,
which deserves no pity.”

PRAYER FOR THE DAY:
"Most sweet Mama, how much l thank you for making me comprehend the great evil of the human will. Therefore I pray You, for the sake of the sorrow You suffered in the exile of Egypt, to make my soul go out of the exile of my will, and to make me repatriate to the dear Fatherland of the Divine Will. To honor You, I offer my actions united with Yours, in act of gratitude to the Holy Baby, praying Him to enter into the Egypt of my heart in order to change it all into Will of God.
My Mama, enclose little Jesus in my heart, that He may reorder it all into Divine Will.
