the uncreated Word of God the Father that
would afford the whole of humanity
enough to contemplate until the end of the
world, yet without any person ever
succeeding in fully grasping it.’
“‘But to tell of the pulsations of the Heart
of Jesus has been reserved for modern
times so that, in hearing of these things, the
world already old and growing cold in the
love of God, may be rekindled and grow
warm again.’”

Divinae Pietatis, Bk IV, chapter IV.))

peace in your heart; Vassula-of-My-
Sacred Heart, Flower-of-My-Passion,
Offspring of-My-Father, I want you to be
perfect;
Lord, where shall I find
sufficient words to glorify You?
You have honoured my wretchedness
with Your stupendous
awe-inspiring Presence.
Since then no task was too hard for me,
with Your Presence everything became
easy and a delight.
You taught me that in Your right hand
You hold the Victory,
and that Death was swallowed up by Life.
O Saviour so anxious
to save and fortify,
Your graciousness visited me at night,
in the night of my heart,
to sing a Festival, rousing a corpse.
You put all Your Heart into Your song
out of love for all of us;
and out of me You made
a Harp before Your Altar ....
Let the music sound for our King,
let it sound! Let the music flow
to the ends of the earth
and vibrate on every ravine,
every mountain, and valley!
praise My Name always, like now! So
that your only Love rejoices;
Vassula, strengthen My Church and I
will strengthen your faith and soul; the
little you give to Me pleases Me, the
greater you give to Me delights Me! My
Father never fails you, He always comes
to your rescue;
1
I am always with you ....
Do not forget that I am dust and that
with one gust of wind, I am gone.
The Waters from Your Breast
are cascading over the mountains
and into the valleys;
2
You are supplying water
for all those who are thirsty,
and You are sending me
across the hills to all nations to cry out:
“From God alone
come victory and strength.”
Do not crouch out of thirst anymore,
stir your memories
and recollect yourselves,
all you who lie in the dust,
for your Dew is not beyond reach.
You have forgotten who made you
but if you drink,
Your memory will be restored!
3
“Oh come to the water
all you who are thirsty;
though you have no money, come!...”
4
and I will say: listen, and your soul will
live....
And now my Saviour,
You who count first in my life,

I had noticed this myself too. God the Father rushes
first to console me. – One day, under very heavy
persecution, I went on my knees crying for help to
Jesus. I wrote my complaint (using my charism) and
instead of Jesus responding, God the Father rushed
to me and consoled me promising that the next day
“it will be arranged”. His word came to realisation as
He had said. – I know the Father has a weakness for
me but so have I for Him.
2
An outpour of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus helped me with His Spirit to write what I
have written.
