Notebook 98
True Life in God
1009
have you not heard, that the Word of
God is something alive and active: it cuts
like any double-edged sword but more
finely: it can slip through the place
where the soul is divided from the
spirit;
1
so, daughter, love Me as much as
I love you and as perfectly as you can
with the love that My Holy Spirit has so
graciously infused in you, you will only
be giving Me back what belongs to Me
already;
in the beginning
2
I had asked you to
love Me, and you answered: “I love you
...” and in My smiles, I said: “love Me
more ...”; now My Holy Spirit progressed
you to get to know Me and love Me
bringing you to Me, as a bride is brought
to her bridegroom and perform an
everlasting union; in that same manner,
but in a more ineffable way, the Holy
Spirit brought you to an everlasting
union of love with Us and in Us the
Triune God;
You are the Great Godhead,
the Almighty, the awe-inspiring God,
You are the incomprehensible Splendour,
surpassing all the splendours
of Your Angels put together;
You, who fill all things without
being contained neither by their limits
nor by their very being;
My hand trembles
in front of Your Divine Majesty
while I am writing;
how to this day, Lord,
could I conceive in my little mind still
that the Prodigious
Prodigy of prodigies Himself
is in familiar communication
with me daily and converses with me
in this delightful manner?
How do you want me to fully understand
in my wretchedness,
O Lord, that You, the Unseen God,
the One who encompasses all beings,

is speaking to me
with such sweetness and tenderness?
what mind is able to grasp this prodigy?
You have blessed me
with the unction of Your Name
to save me and others
through Your Hymn of Love;
You have blessed me
by a triple Resurrection Kiss
and made me a close partner
of Your Salvific Plan;
Can anyone come to me and say:
“I can measure the magnificence of God
and His inexpressible grandeur”;
No one can say this,
because my Lord and my God
is a fathomless Well
of hidden and unknown Treasures.
indeed I Am .... We
3
have been calling
you to rest in Our Arms, like a child in
his mother’s arms, you are called as a
child by grace, to share in Our Salvific
Plan, you are all called to become gods
by participation and enter in the Triune
life to rule with Us; indeed I am
Sovereign of your soul, oh, but such an
intimate Friend as well, who can draw
you into deification;
in spite of
your awesome
wretchedness, at this moment while I
am with you in this way, and you, while
you are with Me in this way, enveloped
in a holy contemplation, not even the
most solemn festivals given in My
honour are as delightful and pleasing to
Me as in these moments of your
contemplation; when My Divine
Presence is with you, I rejoice in the
presence of the one whom I have made
to become the bone of My Bone, the
flesh of My Flesh; I, by My Own Hand,
raised a sanctuary, would I then not
enjoy My Own good Work?
