has revealed His Mercy to us;
no one can say: “I have not seen
the saving power of our God
in my house,” for in His Presence
are splendour and majesty;
for He comes, He comes to you all
not to judge you, not yet,
but to deify you;
are you happy, Vassula?
I am, more than happy;
You planted me in Your House
and I flourished in Your Courts,
so that I proclaim Your Greatness,
so how could I not be happy in Your Arms?
no one will rob me of my happiness,
no persecution, no abuse, no calumny,
no insult and not even all hell
thrown on me to tear me to pieces
can rob me of the happiness
You gave me and continue to give me;
so let this earth learn who is God,
and praise His Name;
ah, blessed be Your Name, for ever!
and I will tell you this: I swore an oath to
you on My Mercy and on My
Faithfulness; so I will continue to uphold
you in My right Hand, giving you with
My Presence an unbounded joy and a
foretaste of the Beatific Vision; and I will
continue being your Counsellor and your
happiness, My child; ravines may fold
upon you and black clouds cover you,
and clods of earth may cover you, but I
assure you, you will go by unscathed,
and My Light upon you will radiate even
more powerfully;
be soothed with My Oil; I am
determined to save this generation by
parading My Mercy; so be happy all you
who hear the melody of My Voice and
have your fill in Me, your God;

Bodyguard of my soul
You have sprinkled my soul with myrrh,
and covered my head with
sweetly scented perfumes,
by Your Presence;
and now, I am again with You,
Your closeness to You is wealth
for my soul,my mind and my heart;
Your closeness to Your royal Munificence
renders me strong and eager,
eager to reach an invincible holiness ....
I love you; even in such wretchedness I
can obtain My joy and My Word can
abide in you through My transcendence;
I am not speaking only for you and for
this generation, but I am putting all of
this on record also for the next
generation, so that a race to be born can
praise Me, your God; look how I am now
leaning down from the heights of My
Sanctuary ....
ah, Vassula, Heaven has never leaned
down so close to the earth as it is leaning
now; some time ago I could hear from
earth a sigh or two, but now, I hardly
hear anything; this is why I am moved to
pity you, generation;
what I hear from the corpse in a
bragging tone is: “look! I can live in a
desert like the pelican; I can live in a
ruin like the screech owl; I can live
without God for I can do better than God
....”
I then turn My Eyes the other way and
look at My Own household and see
haughty looks, proud hearts, mistrust,
slander, cardinal against cardinal,
bishop against bishop ....
Lord! are You telling me that Your Hand
is too short now to redeem?
Have You suddenly
not the Strength to save?
You are known to be slow to anger,
but not slow to intervene and save!
