143rd Meditation
“You need not know my plan in everything, but simply trust in me, as did your beloved Mother, my Daughter”(Interior Word).
The plans of our Heavenly Father are always plans of salvation and not of misfortune (Jer 29:11). We are called to trust in God Himself, and not in what we know or think we know.
142nd Meditation
“Fear nothing and no one, for I am your Father” (Interior Word).
As Sacred Scripture tells us, our Father wants us, in the certainty of His love, to travel our way through time. There are so many terrible things in this world, so many things that frighten us. Jesus Himself tells us: “In the world you will have sufferings, but take heart: I have overcome the world” (Jn 16:33). Read More
141st Meditation
“You can awaken love even more, so that it may inundate you completely. This is what love wants, and for this it seeks you” (Interior Word).
Love has no limits, because “God is love” (1 Jn 4:16). This is how Sacred Scripture describes it to us. There is nothing more important than to live in love, “for love covers a multitude of sins” (1 Pt 4:8). Read More
140th Meditation
“The joy I feel in being with you is no less great than that which I felt when I was with My Son Jesus during His mortal life” (Father’s Message to Sr. Eugenia Ravasio).
Who could please our Father as much as His only-begotten Son, who was obedient to Him even unto death? And what a joy it must have been for the Father to hear the Virgin Mary’s “yes” to His Will! Read More

“It is necessary for you to have a transformed heart, totally focused on God; a vigilant, attentive and loving heart. Only then will you be able to understand God’s plans and be able to work for peace” (Inner Word).
Our Father, who is the source of true unity and peace among us, invites us to cooperate in the plans of salvation. He grants us a new heart from which, under the influence of grace, streams of living water will flow for the world (cf. Jn 7:38). Read More
138th Meditation
“We are called children of God, and so we are!” (1 Jn 3:1).
To be the children of God is a great predilection, and all are called to this dignity. Thus, the Father unites us in Himself. He is the true foundation of the unity of humanity; a unity which we seek in so many different ways, but which we can never attain unless it is grounded in God. Unity among all humanity is rooted in God Himself and can only become a reality to the extent that we truly live as His children. Read More
137th Meditation
“I have opened in front of you a door that no one will be able to close” (Rev 3:8).
These words addressed to the “angel of the Church of Philadelphia” are extended to all those who have accepted God’s invitation. The door to the Father’s Heart is wide open, so that all those who have embarked on the path of salvation can come to Him. Read More
136th Meditation
“If you knew how much I love my disciples and how willing I am to unveil to them all the treasures of grace, you would always be awake, attentive to listen to the voice of your heart to meet me” (Interior Word).
Once our heart has been pierced by the love of the Lord, it will perceive how immense this love is and it will long to receive everything that is a sign of this love. What else could it seek outside of it? Read More
135th Meditation
“In Eucharistic adoration, you open yourselves to the inexpressible torrents of grace that flow toward you from the Heart of God” (Interior Word).

134th Meditation
“If I scale the heavens you are there,
if I lie descend to Sheol, there you are.
If I speed away on the wings of the dawn,
if I dwell beyond the ocean,
even there your hand will be guiding me,
your right hand holding me fast” (Ps 138:8-10).
