True Life in God
Notebook 91
Great is Your Greatness
and I shall not ever forget
this sweet vision
that has been imprinted in my memory.
I delight in souls who allow themselves
to be lifted by Me .... ah, Vassula, I wish
to bring every soul close to My Heart
and have it grafted on Me, in the same
way I have brought you to be close to My
Heart;
this is why, My child, I am tracing
ever so graciously a path so that
everyone can follow it; a path of
righteousness that leads to Me; for this
reason, I, as a young bridegroom in love,
am in love with My creation: the Work of
My Hands; and I will expose to every
creature the flame of My Heart, whether
friend or foe;
today, many of you scrutinise My Love
and My sweetness, modelling Me
according to the passions of your flesh; I
tell you: they who know Me observe holy
things holily; these will be adjudged one
day, holy; but as for those who do not
know Me and do not observe holy things
holily, they will be adjudged as they
merit it;
My Heart is pulsating with calls of
love to love, and again I say: whether
friend or foe you are all invited to
partake the delights of My Heart and
when you do, you will realise how you
belittled Me all your life, how you
belittled My Magnificence by your very
weak nature and your worldly
inclinations and by having believed that
your exterior pleasures and delights,
desired by your flesh, were lordly and
great; these delights and pleasures of
your flesh can never be measured with
My Divinity and sweetness; your
delights to Mine are like a grain of sand
in the universe when compared to the
bliss you can obtain from My sweetness
that would lead you to eternal joy;
and you, Vassula, you who have
entered into the delights of Our
Trinitarian Holiness and have come to
understand Our tender affection and
Our infinite Love, We rejoice for having
accepted voluntarily to lay Our Work
upon you, hence becoming a living altar,
increasing Our joy; We have converted
you and led you to contemplate a
Spousal contemplation in the intimate
union of Our Oneness; then, We sent
you out of Our embrace into the
wilderness to defend the Truth; but now,
after your hard labours, We want you to
repose on Our Heart and have the
leisure of contemplating Our Trinitarian
Holiness; in this intent repose you will
be suckled by Our Divinity;
today again I offer you My Heart and
as a bridegroom who steps out from his
pavilion to join his bride, I, stepped out
to join My Heart to yours and take My
pleasure in you, and exchange in our
caresses our mutual love; let it be as in
heaven:
Love for love,
Heart for heart;
yes! you have not refused to
acknowledge Me as Father, in My Triune
Holiness; and like a vessel that carries
water, your heart, after acknowledging
Me, was filled with My Living Water to
bring it to perfect the virtues I would be
offering it; My Works would be sterile
were I not to perfect you in your love; of
what use would have been your works to
Me, and what sort of honour would it
have been for Me, were they to be
offered without you freely giving Me
your entire heart first; indeed, come and
learn the meaning of these words: “what
I want is love, not sacrifice; what I want
is knowledge of Myself, not holocausts;”
I shall not be hard on anyone so long as I
find readiness in them; have you not
heard: “a man is acceptable with
