ask You to teach me to love You more so
that it becomes immeasurable.
beloved, pose your head on Me and let
Me anoint you with purity to become
one of My saturated flowers having
absorbed Me; come, I will feed you, from
My hand you will eat;
I will teach you to love Me more;

(After reading The Memorare of Saint
Bernard (a small prayer to St. Mary).)
all the guidance is from God;
Vassula, can you hear Me? listen again
Vassula, it is I, St Mary, do not fear Me;
Vassula, I know your difficulties to
realise that all this is really happening,
but I ask from you to trust God; augment
your faith;
He is working in you child; do not
restrain yourself from submission,
abandon yourself in His hands and do
what He asks from you; I am near you
helping you; have peace for He is
guiding you;
Vassula, Jesus is forming you to
become strong to be able to resist
temptation; He feeds you, giving you all
that you are lacking;
remember, daughter, Wisdom has
brought you up; do realise why;
It is not just for me? All this, it’s meant for
others, too?
yes, you are being formed to be God’s
bearer;
I do not know how to be God’s bearer.
God has preached to you and has taught
you to love Him; trust Him for His riches
are innumerable and His Mercy
unfathomable; He loves you with
ineffable tenderness and watches over
you with loving eyes; every heavenly
word lives forever;
I have to learn to love You more.
I will teach you, have peace;

My given words so that many can read
them and profit from them; daughter,
when My given guidance will be
established, I shall prepare you to meet
Me; I long to have you near Me;
Vassula, look at Me;

are you happy
meeting Me in this way?
Yes, very, I don’t deserve this charism at
all.
accept it; accept what I give, I give even
to the most wretched souls; Vassula,
have you heard that I give wisdom to
mere children and not to the learned and
clever;
Yes, I have, why is this?
because children are My weakness, they
let Me form them;
I chose unworthy souls to form, ones
who know little or next to nothing; I will
supply you, Vassula, for I am wealthy;
with Me you will lack nothing;
I love you, do you realise how happy
you make Me every time we meet? I feel
happy having you finally near Me; would
not a father rejoice having found his lost
child? you were lost and My heart was
utterly torn with sorrow; you had
wandered away leaving Me in despair; I
went to look for you and found you; how
then would I not rejoice having you near
Me? Vassula, near Me you will learn; I
