As many times as the soul enters into the Divine Will, so many ways does she open between Creator and
creatures
Finding myself in my usual state, I felt drawn outside of myself, but I could not see the azure heavens
nor the sun of our horizon, but a different heaven, all of gold, studded with stars of various colors, more
refulgent than sun. I felt drawn toward up high, and as this heaven opened before me, I found myself in front of
a most pure light. And before this light, prostrating myself, I called all human intelligences into my intelligence from the moment in which Adam began to break the union of his intelligence with that of His Creator by withdrawing from the Divine Will, up to the last man who will exist upon earth – and I tried to give to my God
all the honor, the glory, the submission, etc., of all created intelligences. And I did the same for all my other
senses, calling all those of the other creatures into mine. All this, always in His lovable Will, in which
everything can be found, from which nothing can escape, even things that may not exist at the present moment,
and in which everything can be done.
While I was doing this, a voice came out from within the immensity of that light, saying:
“As many
times as the soul enters into the Divine Will in order to pray, work, love, etc., so many ways does she open
between Creator and creatures. And in seeing that the creature is making her way to go to It, the Divinity opens
Its ways in order to meet Its creature. In this encounter she copies the virtues of her Creator, absorbs ever new
Divine Life into herself, penetrates more into the eternal secrets of the Supreme Volition, and everything she
does is no longer human in her, but divine. This divine operating forms a golden heaven within her, on which
the Divinity strolls, delighting in finding Its own operating in the creature, awaiting the creature in order to
receive her divine acts, and therefore open more ways for her in Its Divinity. And It keeps repeating with great
love: ‘Behold – here is how, in my Will, the creature comes closer to my likeness, she accomplishes my
designs, she fulfills the purpose of Creation.’
And while hearing this, I found myself inside myself.
Scripture- When I look at thy heavens, the work of thy fingers,
the moon and the stars which thou hast established;
4 what is man that thou art mindful of him,
and the son of man that thou dost care for him?
5 Yet thou hast made him little less than God,
and dost crown him with glory and honor.
6 Thou hast given him dominion over the works of thy hands;
thou hast put all things under his feet. (Psalm 8:4).
Reflection- O Lord we love You, we bless You, and we adore You because You actually call to us to enter Your Divine Will, to open the way between the Creator and the creatures! We can do this every time we pray, work, and love, fused in Your Most Holy and Divine Will. And You actually want us to do this- unworthy as we are, absolute nothings, yet You love us all with an everlasting love which wants nothing but to bring us back to who we were created to be! Who indeed are we that You would care for us and yet it is You who made us to live forever in Your Image and Likeness! Fiat!
