Notebook 99 True Life in God 1021 understood that it was a vehement temptation from the evil one; Satan, jealous of all the gifts I am pouring out on this dying generation to save it, jealous of you, whom I have chosen, still dripping with heavenly dew from My Courts where you have been raised up to send out as My precious gift to all nations, enraged, he swore in his jealousy to destroy you by vomiting his venom over you to appear detestable, deformed, dangerous and ugly; but your Blessed Mother ran to your rescue and covered you with Her Mantle; by grace I have raised you to call Me when you wished, a unique imperial gift that I seldom give to My chosen ones; 1 but Satan again in his jealousy drew many to ridicule you, while drawing them on his side; in spite of the good fruits I have amassed to offer them, even so, they went on challenging Me, rebelliously disregarding My fruits and My counsel, 2and remain as perverse and disloyal as their ancestors’ sons, provoking Me with their high places; then there are some who believed that I spoke, but even to those Satan gave a spirit of lethargy, a human adaptability to My Prodigies, in which with time, this spirit makes them lose their interest in My Prodigies, Prodigies that are a lifegiving fountain, and which can lead them to Eternal Life; you must have heard the parable of the sower; “when anyone hears the word of the kingdom without understanding, the evil one comes and carries off what was sown in his heart;” these people stand inert, stupefied, uncomprehending; then you have those who raised a whole jubilee upon hearing through My 1Our Lord, from the beginning, told me that I could call Him whenever I wished and He would reply always. And so He has, ever since, replied whenever I called to Him. 2One can tell them by their fruits. messenger the echo of My Voice, welcoming My prophet with great joy, storming the other cities to announce that the word of the kingdom is being addressed to them anew, freely, and with power; but this enthusiasm quickly died out because in their heart, My word had found only patches of rock, and made no roots in them; with the first persecution on account of My word, or even a small trial coming their way, they could not last; no, they are not the ones who, when people will abuse them and speak all kinds of evils and calumny against them on account of My Name, would stand firm, since they never had any solid foundation; they will be the first to fall; Sovereignty was not understood and was rejected .... and My ambassadors3 of peace weep bitterly over their parched hearts; Satan has sent his rage as well as he could, to destroy My gift4 to mankind; ploughmen, to set to work on your back, My Vassula, making furrows to break you; but My right Hand shattered their yoke into smithereens; but listen to this, Vassula, I have brought your whole family out of the land of the blessed land of Egypt, where to this day the perfume of My Son, His Mother and Joseph the Just, still rises from that land all the way to heaven; already there I welcomed you, and swore an oath: “through this flower I will gather you together from different nations and different creeds and reveal to all of you My Fatherly Love and Mercy; through her frailty I will raise nations, renewing them by a spiritual revolution; I intend, through this flower, to display My Holiness for all the nations to see; and for those who give orders to My prophets not to prophesy, I will give a prodigious prophetic Call and an Order from My Throne on My Choice, 3The prophets. 4God means, me.
