O my Divine Prisoner, I too feel my heart breaking for
having to leave You, and I am forced to say Goodbye; but, what
am I saying, O Jesus — never again Goodbye. I don't have the
courage to leave You alone. I say Goodbye with my lips, but not
with my heart; rather, I will leave my heart with You in the
Tabernacle. I will count your heartbeats and I will correspond
with my heartbeat of love; I will number your panting whispers
and, to give You comfort, I will let You rest in my arms. I will be
your vigilant sentry; I will be on guard to see if anything comes to
trouble or sadden You, not only not to ever leave You alone, but
also to take part in all of your pains.
O Heart of my heart! O Love of my love! Leave this air of sadness, be consoled. It breaks my
heart to see You troubled. While I say goodbye with my lips, I leave with you my breaths, my
affections, my thoughts, my desires and my movements, which will form a chain of continuous acts
of love, united with Yours, surrounding You as a crown, and loving You for all. Aren't You happy, O
Jesus? You seem to say Yes, don't You?
Goodbye, O Loving Prisoner! But I haven't finished yet. Before I go, I also want to leave
my body before You; I intend to make of my flesh and bones many tiny little pieces in order to
form as many lamps for as many Tabernacles which exist in the world; and of my blood many little
flames to light those lamps. I intend to put in every Tabernacle my lamp which, united with the lamp
of the Tabernacle that gives You light at night, will
say ‘I love You, I adore You, I bless You, I offer
reparation and I thank You for me and for all.’
Goodbye, O Jesus! But listen to one more thing: let's make a pact, and the pact will be that
we will love each other more. You will give me more love, enclose me in your love, make me live of
love and bury me in your love. Let's tighten more our bond of love. I will be happy only if You give
me your love to be able to really love You.
Goodbye, O Jesus, bless me — bless all. Squeeze me to Your Heart, imprison me in your love
as I kiss your Heart. Goodbye, goodbye....(Vol. 11)
Luisa's good morning to Jesus
O my Jesus, sweet Prisoner of love, here I am before You again. I left You saying goodbye,
and now I come back saying good morning. I was anxiously burning to see You again in this prison
of love, to give You my yearning regards, my affectionate heartbeats, my ardent desires and all
myself in order to transfuse all of myself in You, and to abandon myself in You in perpetual
memory and pledge of my love toward You.
O my always lovable Sacramental Love, do you know? While I came to give You all of
myself, I came also to receive from You all of Yourself. I cannot live without a life, therefore I
want yours. All is given to the one who gives all, isn't it true, O
Jesus? Therefore, today I will love with your heartbeat of a
passionate lover; I will breathe with your panting breath in search
for souls; I will desire your Glory and the good of souls with your
immeasurable desires. All the
heartbeats of creatures will flow
within your divine heartbeat; we will grasp them all and will save
them. We won't let anybody escape, at the cost of any sacrifice,
even if I should bear all the pain. If You should push me away I
will fling myself more inside You, I will cry out louder in order to
plead together with You for the salvation of your children and my
brothers.
O my Jesus, my Life and my All, how many things does your voluntary imprisonment tell
me! But the emblem with which I see You all sealed is the emblem of the souls, while the chains
which bind You completely — very strongly — are love. It seems
that the words souls and love make You smile, debilitate You and
force You to surrender in everything; and I, pondering well these
excesses of your love, will be always before You and together
with You, with my usual refrains: souls and love.
Therefore, today I want all of You; always together with
me in the prayer, in the work, in the pleasures and in
the food, in the steps, in the sleep — in everything. I am certain
that, being unable to obtain anything by myself, with You I will
obtain everything; and everything we will do will serve to soothe
each one of your pains, to sweeten every bitterness, to give You
reparation for any offense, to compensate You for everything, and
to plead for any conversion, no matter how difficult and desperate.
We will go begging a little love from every heart, to make You
more content and happy. Isn't it good this way, O Jesus?
