THE FIRST WORD UPON AWAKENING
When I awake in the morning, You, Father, are already there, and all night You have watched over me. Then You expect me to turn to You and my first word to be consecrated to You, gladly and joyously! But sometimes I forget and let myself be carried away by moods. What a pity!

GOD´S GREATEST GIFT
What great mercy you had towards us in sending us your Son Jesus!

The baptism of John, whence was it? From heaven or from men?” Read More
THE HEAVEN OF GOD
“Your heaven, My creatures, is in paradise, together with My chosen ones, because it is there that you will contemplate Me in an everlasting vision and will enjoy eternal glory.

You can provide Me with this joy and it is also your duty towards your Creator and Father, Who desires and expects this of you” (Father’s Message to Sr. Eugenia Ravasio).
