and so I have obeyed and followed the
heavenly instructions given to me;”
“what did you say when they descended
on you as conquerors, those very ones
who wounded you and who say are
friends to your Master?”
“I have never asked myself why has
this happened to me, because I made an
oath to our God and Redeemer, signing
it with my own blood to become the
slave of our Saviour;”
“and what does your Divine Master say
to all of this?”
“He who encompasses all beings
without being contained by their limits
is in mourning for His Household; many
of His shepherds have laid His House
waste; in their rebellion they have
trampled down His Rules and have
turned His glorious pastures into a
desolation; their entire vineyard is
ravaged as well; and the flock finding
only barren lands and nothing to graze
on, depraved, they died,

and they
together with them died as well .... these
things are happening and none of these
seem to take it to heart; they have been
assailed by their human rules and have
failed Him;”
“how do you know of so many things and
see them?”
“it is only through the Light of the
Cross that one can perceive those things
that are invisible to the eye; it is through
the Eye of our Redemptive Instrument
and of our Salvation that one sees all its

they could be sorrows, but delights too; I
am convinced that I belong to Christ and
to the Holy Cross, for He has said so ....
our Divine Master but Bridegroom too,
plants us in His Heart and when we take
root and flourish within His Heart, we
bear ample and good fruit; we have
become heirs to His Kingdom and gods
by participation, his adoptive children;
“God does not deprive me of
Knowledge, but speaks to me in plain
words, face to face, and His Voice is
music to my ears, addressing me with
majestic power His thoughts, He
enlightens my intellect to understand
the hidden sense of proverbs and in His
smiles and delight He unseals
mysterious sayings of Scriptures that
were kept hidden from our eyes;
“yes, there is a proper time for
everything He does; my Lord and my
God has sealed me with divine kisses, He
has sealed my soul with the imprint of
His Triune Holiness so as to draw me
even more into the fullness of Their
Deity;”
ah, Vassula, see how My Father
instructed you? rejoice then and be glad!
You left Your Royal Throne
and Your Glory to come to us, Lord,
assuming the condition of a slave
to serve us;
no king was ever known
to have served his subordinates,
and yet You, Eternal King, King of kings,
came and served Your subordinates ....

attested by the Spirit, seen by angels,
