The Book of Heaven - Volumes 24, 25 & 26 The Call of the Creature to the Order, the Place and the Purpose for which He was Created by God April 29, 1928 How the virtues are seeds , plants, flowers and fruits, while the Divine Will is Life. The wonders of the 'I love You'; how love is never tired. One who lives in the Divine Will cannot go to Purgatory - the universe would rebel. My poor mind is always prey to the Supreme Fiat. It seems to me I can think of nothing else, nor do I want to occupy myself with anything else. I feel a current in me which stops me now at one point, now at another point of the Divine Will but I always end up in It without ever taking all of Its endless light, because I am incapable of it. And my lovable Jesus, moving in my interior, making me a surprise, told me: "My daughter, when the soul practices a virtue, the first act she practices forms the seed, and as she practices the second, the third act and so forth, she cultivates the seed, she waters it, and it grows into a plant and produces its fruits. If then she practices it only once, or a few times, the seed is neither watered nor cultivated - it dies, and the soul remains without plant and without fruit, because a virtue is never formed by one single act, but by repeated acts. It happens as to the earth: it is not enough to sow the seed in its womb, but it is wise to cultivate it often and to water it, if one wants the plant and the fruits of that seed; otherwise the earth becomes hard over that seed and buries it without giving it life.
