1721 (87) After Holy Communion, when I had welcomed Jesus into my heart, I said to Him, “My
Love, reign in the most secret recesses of my heart, there where my most secret thoughts
are conceived, where You alone have free access, in this deepest sanctuary where human
thought cannot penetrate. May You alone dwell there, and may everything I do exteriorly
take its origin in You. I ardently desire, and I am striving with all the strength of my soul, to
make You, Lord, feel at home in this sanctuary.”
1722 I heard these words: If you did not tie My hands, I would send down many punishments
upon the earth. My daughter, your look disarms My anger. Although your lips are
silent, you call out to Me so mightily that all heaven is moved. I cannot escape from
your requests, because you pursue Me, not from afar but within your own heart.
1723 (88) When the soul of a certain young lady came to me one night, she made me aware of
her presence, and made known to me that she needed my prayer. I prayed for a while, but
her spirit did not leave me. Then I thought to myself, “If you are a good spirit, leave me in
peace, and the indulgences I will gain tomorrow will be for you.” At that moment, the spirit
left my room, and I recognized that she was in purgatory.
1724 Today I felt the Lord‟s Passion in my body more than at any other time. I felt this was for the
sake of a dying soul.
1725 Today, the Lord has been teaching me, once again, how I am to approach the Sacrament of
Penance: My daughter, just as you prepare in My presence, so also you make your
confession before Me. The person of the priest is, for Me, only a screen. Never
analyze what sort of a (89) priest it is that I am making use of; open your soul in
confession as you would to Me, and I will fill it with My light.
1726 Christ and Lord, You are leading me over such precipices that, when I look at them, I am
filled with fright, but at the same time I am at peace as I nestle close to Your Heart. Close to
Your Heart, I fear nothing. In these dangerous moments, I act like a little child, carried in its
mother‟s arms; when it sees something which menaces it, it clasps its mother‟s neck more
firmly and feels secure.
1727 + I often see snares laid for me by souls who should not do so. I do not defend myself, but
entrust myself all the more to God, who sees within me. And I see how these souls become
entangled in their own snares. O God, how just and good You are!
1728 (90) Write: I am Thrice Holy, and detest the smallest sin. I cannot love a soul which is
stained with sin; but when it repents, there is no limit to My generosity toward it. My
mercy embraces and justifies it. With My mercy, I pursue sinners along all their paths,
and My Heart rejoices when they return to Me. I forget the bitterness with which they
fed My Heart and rejoice at their return.
Tell sinners that no one shall escape My Hand; if they run away from My merciful
Heart, they will fall into My Just Hands. Tell sinners that I am always waiting for them,
that I listen intently to the beating of their heart…. When will it beat for Me? Write, that
I am speaking to them through their remorse of conscience, through their failures and
sufferings, through thunderstorms, through the voice of the Church. And if they bring
all My graces to naught, I begin to be angry (91) with them, leaving them alone and
giving them what they want.
