not fall into distress, make no resistance
and do not turn away either; allow
yourself to be repressed as My Own Son,
your Redeemer,
was repressed,
scandalising all His disciples;
“I command you to remain untouched
by the insults of men and not to respond,
as My Son did not respond but remained
silent, and in these sufferings I will
establish Peace; in your torments I will
console the disconsolate; I will make
your oppressors oppress you and while
you will be lying down in torments,
trampled underfoot by men, I will be
setting light in the Church, giving birth
to a renewal in My Spirit Thrice Holy,
surrendering Her to become One;
“faint as your heart may be, feel, feel
My Joy for this victory! Salvation is at
your doors .... daughter, surrender into
your Father’s Hands; delicate and tender
child, lift the yoke of Unity on your
shoulders and carry it; when you weary
on your way I will be your sole Repose,
your sole Companion; in the betrayals,
your sole Friend; I will be your sole
Source of Knowledge, instructing you
the depths of Our mysteries, so that this
generation and the next will not lack; I
will continue to rain down on you My
blessings and My Manna to feed you;
“come, do not stand in awe; come,
your closeness to Me infatuates Me and
renders your soul thirsty for Me; come,
tabernacle of My Son, I love you; love
Me and be eager to serve Me; come, dust
and ashes, yet with a heart and soul,
glorify Me; come Paraskevi, in contrast
to your darkness I, who am the
Imperishable Light of the Law, will be
your sole pillar of Light in your journey,
to guide you and others into My Law;”

by bitter plague, return to Me as you are!
for I have taken My stand against My
Holy Wrath by reminding Myself that I, I
had fathered you .... and I will stand by
you always and everywhere you go;
approach the Living One and I will
demonstrate My sweetness towards you,
teaching you that piety is stronger than
all; piety will keep you away from sin;
come and strike your root in Me so
that I turn you, too, into a Tree with
branches that bear fruit, and My
inscription will be carved on each one of
your fruits so that those who eat will
hunger for more; and from thereon you
will tune your ear to the Truth thrice
Holy, and by applying your heart to the
Truth you shall live;

My gaze is in the visions of the Night,
as swiftly as You, the Holy One,
came to me, so was Your swiftness
to throw Your veil over my eyes
for this is what pleased You,
Beloved of the Father,
so that I may depend on You entirely
and be like a toy in Your Mighty Hand.
And since then,
I have become an exile for Your Sake.
