JOURNEY INTO THE DIVINE WILL

Vol. 6 – August 17, 1905- All the glory of a soul is to be told that, of everything she has, nothing is hers, but all is of God.

Continuing in my usual state, I saw the Queen Mama who was saying to Our Lord: “Come – come into her garden to delight”, and it seemed that She was pointing to me. On hearing this, I felt full of blush, and I said to myself: ‘I have nothing good at all – how can He delight?’ As I was thinking this, blessed Jesus told me: “My daughter, why do you blush? All the glory of a soul is to be told that, of everything she has, nothing is hers, but all is of God; and I, in exchange, say to her that everything that is mine is hers.” And while He was saying this, it seemed that my little garden, which He Himself had made, would unite with His, most extensive, which He kept in His Heart, and they would become one, and we would delight together. Then I found myself inside myself.

Scripture Meditation- When he established the heavens, I was there,
    when he drew a circle on the face of the deep,
²⁸ when he made firm the skies above,
    when he established the fountains of the deep,
²⁹ when he assigned to the sea its limit,
    so that the waters might not transgress his command,
when he marked out the foundations of the earth,
³⁰     then I was beside him, like a master workman;
and I was daily his delight,
    rejoicing before him always,
³¹ rejoicing in his inhabited world
    and delighting in the sons of men. (Proverbs 8:21-31)

Prayer- O Lord we bless You, we thank You and we adore You because You Plan was always to delight in the sons of men. Your Wisdom, prototype of Our Blessed Mother, was with You from all eternity! Today through the Gift of Living in the Divine Will You want to take us back to the Garden and walk with us in the cool of the day (Genesis 3:8) because we have and are nothing and You are all!
