Notebook 111 True Life in God 11 __________________________________________________________________________________ - tell Me, My friend, what is the peak of the mystical life you are talking about? is it not the intimate and personal encounter with Me, the Christ? - can man perceive My Knowledge1 on his own? no, indeed no, My Knowledge is perceived only through the light of the Cross which makes all things that are invisible to the eye, visible, and luminous; it is only through the Eye of your redemptive Instrument that one can see all Its bearings; - what is then to know Me and understand Me? and what is the relationship between God and man? - can I, as the Christ, award the fullness of My grace to those who sincerely seek grace? - you have performed many tasks daily, but I earnestly would like you to find refuge in My Heart, have your repose in Me, your God… - can I, as God, in your so aggravating times, manifest My grief to man, and to whom I please, sharing with him My concerns? - do not delude yourself and say, "it is impossible for a simple man to obtain the treasure of the Holy Spirit!" who are you to judge Me? what is dust to provoke Me? undoubtedly, everyone in the end will be judged and will have to answer for all that he has done or not done; - have you, who scrutinize Me, ever tasted Me, like David2 ? - are you sure you are possessing Me and yet you do not recognize Me in My speech? 1 Wisdom. 2 David of the Psalms. - learn to say: "I have learnt how to possess God, He who fathered me, He made Himself known to me, yet without ever losing His transcendence! He who encompasses all beings possesses me as well and has now, in my nothingness, ordered all things within me to be according to His divine Will..." then, having said this, you must tell Me, My friend, what is it like to have discovered Me within you? what was it like to have lifted the Veil of the Bridegroom and discover My Divinity? allow then My Holy Spirit to invade you with His Light and turn your soul into a Cathedral! - can any man reach, while on earth, the ineffable and purest virtue of impassibility without Me having visited him by Fire? - and if indeed I passed through a city3, would it go by unnoticed? or would My passage not enflame the entire city? - have you not read before that I can guide My people and reveal to them My Will without notifying man? - is it evil when the Bridegroom comes to this generation to draw souls closer to the flames of Love of His Heart and enshroud them in Me to enable them to rule with Me, their God? I solemnly ask you, what have you done with the Scriptures? are they not My reflection? how is it then, if you say you know the Scriptures, you do not recognize Me in this work? how is it you so easily contradict the truth? - can a man who is spiritually dead understand the Scriptures putting 3 metaphoric: our Lord means 'soul'.
