Most Holy Mary once again. This December is truly filled with Her. And I asked, “Why doesn’t Jesus come any more?”
Mary drew me to herself and said, “I come because He is very severe towards many, and his appearance and his words would bring you pain, my very afflicted daughter. For this reason I come. My task is to hold back the lightning bolt of his words out of mercy on the executioners and the victims. I mediate. Aren’t you happy that I am coming?”
“Oh, I would like you to always! But you were offended here, in this room, at Christmas....”350
Mary grew sad, but clasped me more tightly to her heart while saying, “Don’t think about it any more. Your suffering over those heresies healed my suffering. The carnality of men and in men is so strong that not even faith in the Lord and fidelity to the Church can enable them to believe in my utter purity and the chastity, the inviolateness, of my womb, which only God penetrated and which gave forth God in Flesh, Blood, Soul, and Divinity, through one of those mysteries and powers for which the laws of nature and of solid bodies mean nothing. Only those who have plunged into my Purity and absorbed it and made it their life and vision can understand and believe. You can because you have rendered my Purity vision and life for yourself. Take pity on the blind and those feeding on humanity.”
Her caresses made me forget all affliction....
