do not look for freedom elsewhere
except in My Spirit; and like in the time
of the first-fruits, 1 I will fill you with a
variety of gifts from My Holy Spirit;
many of you will be singing in tongues;
others will have the eloquence of speech;
My gifts are numerous, and they will be
given lavishly;
come! come and win the friendship of
My Holy Spirit to become collaborators
with Him, for He will graciously initiate
you into Our mysteries by opening your
mind and your eyes to understand and
perceive the Imperceptible yet graciously
offered to you at no cost; oh, come! do
not stand there, inert, come and inherit
what is yours from the beginning; come
and inherit the Inaccessible Light yet all
around you and who could be within
you! come and possess the Unattainable
yet at everyone’s reach! come! and do
not stand remote and in terror; come
and inherit the mystery of My Kingdom;
today I am offering you Joy, Peace,
your Inheritance; I am offering you an
Inestimable Treasure more beautiful
than any man could conceive of
obtaining; if I am pursuing you
untiringly it is because of the greatness
of the love I have for you; out of the
favours I have favoured you this One is
My Crown; 2
come closer to Me and I will breathe
in you Immortality, reanimating your
soul to move, aspire, and breathe in My
Glory so that you no longer belong to
yourself but to the One who moves you
in union in Our Oneness;
do not say: “do I dare, I, the sinner,
apply for the Inaccessible Light?
accessible only to the saints?” – if you
truly believe you are a sinner, as you say,
and unworthy for My Gifts, the

impossible will become possible;3 I will
immediately set you on fire to consume
you and burn to the root all that was not
Me;
I will then replace all that hindered
My passage in you by the One whom you
thought Unattainable; He will be the
light of your eyes, the motive of your
being, the movement of your heart, the
utterance of your speech, your laughter
and your joy, the kingly adornment of
your soul, the watchman of your spirit;
He will be your brother, your sister and
your faithful friend; He will be your
festivity, your banquet, the hidden
treasure, the pearl, your hymn to the
Hymn, your amen to the Amen; the
promised land and the foundation of all
virtues on which He will inscribe His
Holy Name;
come then and receive the Seal of your
freedom by admitting you are a sinner
and subject to sin, so that I, in My turn,
lavish upon you My Inexhaustible Riches
and the Kingdom of Heaven; My Holy
Spirit can quench your thirst;
I want to turn you all into a blameless
race, into a holy people, into Our Image,
so why, why do you ask from Me so very
little .... and with so little faith? why do
you misjudge My generosity? your lack
of faith is a fatal poison for your spirit,
drawing you into what I repel: human
doctrines and regulations; you have
learnt that the Church is My Son’s Body
and that He is Its Head,4 this is why you,
who make part of His Body, should
aspire for the gifts of My Holy Spirit and
penetrate into the mystery of Christ,
mystery which will divinise you;
in the power of My Spirit you will see
a glorious vision of your inheritance
where all the holy people rest, you will
see your place of rest; – are you fit for
3 God means that if we admit we are sinners, we
already acknowledge our unworthiness; with a spirit
of humility we can obtain His Spirit’s Gifts.
