1 | May the grace of the Heavenly Father always shine in your heart and sustain and comfort it thru all ...trials. 2 | All is arranged in order to introduce the soul into ... the secrets of the King... 3 | (Your soul) must empty itself of human understanding in order to make way for another which is totally divine. 4 | Let (your soul) strip itself of its way of thinking...in order that a new, simple, heavenly, supernatural way of thinking take its place. 5 | Be convinced that God...is with (your soul) and works with it, with concern and efficacy equal to the love for his creatures. 6 | ...do nothing but resign yourself (to God's Will). 7 | Bless the hand of him who leads you along a path that is certainly unusual, but very safe, given the good it does your soul. 8 | Rest assured, that even if the sky seems totally black...it is still serene in your soul. 9 | Revive your faith, take courage and go forward always! 10 | Do not lose heart when you are misunderstood... 11 | ...if it is the will of God, it is wise to bow to it because all is for your good. 12 | ...the dawn is near at hand...Jesus, sun of Justice, is with you, loves you, and will always love you... 13 | Listen to God who says to Abraham and to you: Fear not, I am your shield. 14 | What do you seek on earth, if not God? 15 | Be firm ...stay in the boat in which Jesus has placed you and let the storm come. 16 | Long live Jesus! You will not perish (even if) he appears to be sleeping. 17 | Fear is a greater evil than evil itself. 18 | (Jesus) will stretch out his hand to you... squeeze his hand tightly and walk joyfully... 19 | (Walk forward) always, even if slowly; you will make progress just the same. 20 | (God) wants our miseries to be the throne of his mercy... 21 | (God) wants your powerlessness (to be) the seat of his Omnipotence. 22 | One thing alone is necessary: to be close to (Jesus)! 23 | Love this divine Goodness and abandon yourself to his arms and Heart. 24 | Let nothing deter you from abandoning yourself totally to the mercy of his Providence. 25 | I exhort you to love a God crucified amidst the darkness; stay a while with him. 26 | Do not try too much to overcome your temptations, as this violence would strengthen them. 27 | Despise them (temptations), but do not dwell on, or become obsessed with them. 28 | God can reject everything in a creature conceived in sin,..but he absolutely cannot reject the sincere desire to love him. 29 | You can and must be tranquil and happy. 30 | ...anxiety and agitation are merely a trial...Console yourself then... 31 | Defend yourself as best you can and when you don't succeed, be resigned...the Sun will soon shine in your soul.
