The Book of Heaven-Volumes 24, 25 & 26
April 16, 1928:
The human will is symbolized by a rotten seed. How the Divine Will has the virtue of restoring the original life of that seed. Divine echo in the midst of creatures.
I was thinking about the Holy Divine Will, and a thousand thoughts wandered through my head: how can Its Kingdom come? How will the creatures be able to receive a good so great, and rise so high as to enter into that Fiat from which Creation came out? But while I was thinking of this and other things, my beloved Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: "My daughter, my Will has the virtue of purifying, clearing up, embellishing and changing nature itself. The human will is like a seed which is rotten inside, while on the outside it appears to be good. The clothing that covers the seed seems to be in good condition, but if the clothing is removed, one finds that the seed is, in some, half putrefied, in some, empty. Others, then, while the seed possesses life, do not expose it to the sun or to the wind, and so it will end up rotten. On the other hand, if it is exposed to the sun and to the wind, through their light, heat and wind, they will rip the rotten part off, they will purify it, and give it new life."
