Trust and love

March 14



 Trust and love, my little one, trust and love in the goodness of our God. You suffer, but come on, that your suffering is with Jesus and Jesus, and not a punishment but a test for your salvation.
Believe, then, I can assure you from the Lord, in your pain is Jesus, and also in the center of your heart, you are not separate or away from love of this God as good. You experience the delight in the thought of God, but still suffer being away from fully owning and offended him ungrateful creatures. But it can not be otherwise, my little one, who loves, suffers, is the standard constant for the pilgrim soul on this earth, love does not fully satisfied is a torment, but sweet torment. You experience it.
Continue without fear, my little one, enveloping you in this mystery of love and pain at the same time, until it pleases Jesus. This state is always temporary come the divine consolation, complete, irresistible. In this state of affliction, he continues, my good little girl, praying for everyone, especially for sinners, to repair as many offenses as are made to the Sacred Heart.
I think one day you offered you a victim for sinners, Jesus heard your prayer, accepted your gift. Jesus has given you the grace to endure the sacrifice. Well, yet another step forward!, The reward is not far.
