Lord, help me in all,
help me to make atonement for Your people, for Your Church,
to offer sacrifice, prayers,
that would rise like incense in heaven,
and would be as an appeasing fragrance for the Father,
a holy oil for the Son,
and a consecration to the Holy Spirit;
O Holy Trinity, embroidery of my soul,
superb ornamentation of my heart,
emblem of my mind, chime of my voice,
sentinel of my being,
what could I say much more and still fall short?
alone1 We encircled Our territory, in Our one Substance and one Power and one Knowledge We are one God alone, yes, with one Will and one Dominion, We encircled Our property, 2 to give it a disciple’s tongue, anointing Our Divine Work; 3
in Our Power We poured Ourselves in you like a vivifying liquid; like the sun shining in spring We shone on you, fortifying Our city and sanctuary4 before your oppressors would ill-treat you;
in Our Knowledge We appeared to you, communicating Ourselves to you, instructing you and through you, others, with the knowledge the sages have received;
feast5 of Our Mercy! enjoyment of Our Trinitarian Holiness, be rooted in Our Will and be like a sprig of frankincense in summer-time, to continue to manifest the Truth and give a better explanation of the Revelation given to you;
We will flood you with Our Light for a better understanding of Our Word, imprinting Our Divine Image in every word given to you; Our Majesty will supply all you still lack; “then like an olive tree loaded with fruit, like a vessel of beaten gold encrusted with every kind of precious stone” 6 you will atone with dignity in this hour of painful apostasy, and like cantors chanting hymns of praise, your frail voice will plead with Us with Our terms, with Our understanding and within Our Will; in Our royal munificence We have in Our embracement endowed your heart with Wisdom so that It can be passed on to this generation and that they may profit from It;
so, little one, continue to walk in the path laid out with sapphires for you, and be a herald and apostle of Our Trinitarian Deity; seed every country so that Our Kingdom stretches from sea to sea; mountains and hills shall bow low at Our saving justice; and, in Our Power, We shall call into existence those things that are not, 7 as those that are;
8 I am the Life and the Resurrection who brings the dead to life; remain devout to Me and blossom; never fret; be like the rose that grows on the bank of a watercourse; be blessed and give off to your Saviour a sweet smell like incense, spreading your fragrance together with Mine in My House, inebriating My household into conversion and into one heart;
I will protect you from fury and jealousy; say: “all the Works of the Lord are good and He will supply every want in due time;” 9 yes, praise My Works and be My Paradise in this way, Paraskevi ‘μου’; 10
O Lord,
let me keep Your Instructions in mind
and do not allow forgetfulness
get the better of Me!
Steady my feet, Glorious Lord,
and keep me awake and at Your Service …
My child, Wisdom illumined in your soul, like a sweet flame, ceaselessly revealing to you Our secrets, but also Ourselves in such a way that it may revive this generation, invigorating it to grow into Our splendour and become worthy to enter Paradise;
by Our Own free-Will, We, in Our Triune Glory, it so pleased Us to befriend you intimately and pour on you in abundance torrents of delights and consolations; We revealed to you something forgotten by My Church: this overflowing sweetness, yes! Almighty God’s divine sweetness that attracts myriads of angels around My Throne, countless souls to worship Me and delight in this heavenly banquet; in Our ineffable sweetness We embrace all Heaven;
My Church has forgotten, yes, and neglected Me, My Own Spouse …. She remains naked, and shows no interest in My Divine sweetness; “how is it, My Bride, you turn your back to Me when I open My Heart to you to converse with you? My Heart is filled with ineffable sweetness, ah, but you have not understood what draws My creation to Me…”
My intimate companion, avert your eyes from your surrounding, and fix your eyes, your mind and your soul in a holy contemplation on My Heart, and allow Me to continue our sweet and intimate converse with you;
a life spent generously for Me by your own free will infatuates Me, your Divine Companion; a life which suffered insult and calumny for My Sake affects Me to tears; joy-of-My-Heart, you have still not quite understood how, in My fervent love I have for you, I joined Myself inseparably with you so you become one spirit with Me; so remain in My Peace; My faithful Love will never leave you;
Ah, my King,
my heart is stirred by Your noble theme,
inebriated when You address me;
Gracefulness11 is upon me like dew,
shadowing me in His mighty embrace,
my stronghold is God Himself
the God who loves me faithfully.
you see, My love, every structure knit together in Me, grows into holiness and purity in My Divinity; therefore, you, My Vassula, in Me, are being built up into a holy vessel where I am contained, a pure and holy dwelling-place for Our Triune Holiness, in the Spirit, in which We could contemplate Ourselves; so rejoice and be glad before your Bridegroom who is ever so generous to you; remain blameless and I shall never fail you;
now, joy-of-My-Heart, you may return to your other duties; receive from your Saviour His Kiss of Divine Love on your forehead;
I, Jesus Christ, bless you; ic;
Si. 50:9-10
