«You cannot be exempt from the corruption of the flesh and you cannot rise immediately to the complete glorification of the soul and of the flesh as it occurred for Jesus and Mary. And these are the only two things in which, though having the common destiny of the faithful children and lovers of God, you differ from the Only Begotten out of His consubstantial nature to that of the Father and from the First-born out of the human nature and perfection of life amongst all men, and from His Mother whom the Revelation (Eccl. XXIV, 5) and the Doctors of the Church call: the "First-born Daughter", who through grace and sanctity, is second only to the Word made Flesh, who, being God, is the same Grace and Sanctity, most perfect and infinite.

You do not differ in anything else. Because God, through His Christ, immolated in order to be able to give to you the treasures of Grace, of the Sacraments, of Life in the mystical Body, of the Communion of Saints of whom He is the most holy Head, and of the eternal and most joyous Life, makes you participants and co-heirs of the supernatural riches which He lavished upon His two most Beloved ones: Jesus and Mary. You do not differ from Them in fate. However, meditate. You do not differ in the heavenly and supernatural destiny, nor even in the natural one.

As Jesus and Mary had their trials, their sorrows, struggles, anxieties and incomprehensions, so too, you have them, and you must have them in order to be similar to them.

As God justified the two Elect amongst the elect and glorified them in the presence of men and of the angels, and in Jordan and at Tabor (traditionally regarded as the mountain where the transfiguration of Jesus occurred) and on Moria (St. John chap. XII v. 27-28), and on The Mount of Olives forty days after Easter, for His Son and in the most solemn forms - because every miracle performed by Christ in the three years of His evangelical life was the justification of the Father concerning the actions of His Son and the accusations of His enemies - and, for Mary, on Calvary, at the Sepulchre and the Cenacle, during the torment and laments of the most holy and pierced of mothers, and again on the Mount of Olives when the purest spirit of Mary, having separated itself from the virginal and innocent body in the last of Her ardent ecstasies of love, was taken up by the angels into Heaven, so you, too, will be justified by God and then glorified if you live as children of God.

God does not condemn the tears and the repugnances of man towards suffering and sorrow. He only condemns sin, obduracy and despair in His mercy. May Jesus and Mary be an example to you. The first was justified for His abhorrence of man towards death, and of such a death; the second was justified for Her anguishing lament, whether silent or of an outcry, towards the Father of Her Son and His, from the beginning of the Passion to the Resurrection.

To abhor death, to be repugnant towards sorrow, to cry in abandon and in torment before one whom you love, and to lament to God of this, is not condemned by God. Rather, those tears and those repugnances are the most precious coins for the conquest of Heaven if you, by suffering them and by shedding them, do not go out from the love of God and from justice.

Jesus, who has shed them and many of them, and who has tried them and who has consumed every sorrow through the torment of His Mother and through the torment of His Body, intercedes for you with the Father. He knows what it is like to be Man. And He says to you,

"Do as I have done. Cry, shudder before your passion, and before your cross, groan. But, like Me, do the Will of the Father. And I will justify you in everything. Remain united to Me and to Mary as I to the Father and to My Mother, and We will sustain you. I am the Life and She is the Mother of Life and also your Mother, and as her children, She has taken you in the hour in which She did not die through Will and divine help, but more than Myself, She was tormented by seeing Me die in so much torment. We were acquainted with everything: hunger, hardship, poverty, anguish, persecutions, dangers, the sword of justice and of sorrow which severs life or pierces the heart and soul, and for this reason, we intercede for you. Love us as we love you. And you will become victors in everything which can separate you from God. Love us, and charity, to the God One and Trine and to the Daughter-Spouse and Mother of God and yours, will be your justification and your future and eternal glory. Who will be able to separate you from God, who will be able to snatch Heaven away from you for which you are predestined, if you remain united to God and to Heaven by means of the bond of love? What things could enter into you and give you separation and distancing from God if I, Love, fill you of Myself because you will have made yourselves empty of everything in order to receive only Me? What things could give you true death if the Life, that is, Love still, will be in you? Who will be able to conquer you if you have in you He who has conquered the world, the devil and the flesh? Nothing will be able to separate you from God, deprive you of Heaven, make you slaves of Satan and of men, make you 'dead' to the true Life, if you do not want to. Nothing will be able to harm you for all of eternity if you courageously want to be of God. Nothing will be able to conquer you if the Tau is upon your forehead and if in your heart, there is love. Heaven belongs to those who know how to merit it. And God wants it to be filled with you. For this reason, He gives to you all the things which can help you to merit Heaven, and with these things, His own Son, Himself and His Holy Spirit. 'Who is like God?' is the cry and the name of the defending Archangel. And the Archangel battles with you and for you and assures you that, by having God in you, nothing and no one can conquer you and give to you death of the soul and eternal misery."»
