22nd August 1944.
Jesus orders me: « Take a completely
new notebook. Write down on the first page what I dictated on August
the 16th. She will be spoken of in this book.»
I obey and I write.

16th August 1944.
Jesus says:
« Today write only this.
Purity has such a value, that the womb of a creature can contain the
Uncontainable One, because She possessed the greatest purity that a
creature of God could have.
The Most Holy Trinity
descended with Its perfections, inhabited with Its Three Persons,
enclosed Its infinity in a small space. But It did not debase Itself
by doing so, because the love of the Virgin and the will of God
widened this space until they rendered it a Heaven. And the Most Holy
Trinity made Itself known by Its characteristics:
The Father, being once again
the Creator of the creature, as on the sixth day of Creation, had a
real, worthy daughter fashioned to His perfect image. The mark of God
was impressed so completely and exactly on Mary, that only in the
First-born was it greater. Mary can be called the Second-born of the
Father because, owing to the perfection granted to Her and preserved
by Her, and to Her dignity of Spouse and Mother of God and Queen of
Heaven, She comes second after the Son of the Father and second in
His eternal thought, which ab aeterno took delight in Her.
The Son, being also "Her
Son", did teach Her, by the mystery of Grace, His truth and
wisdom, when He was but an Embryo, growing in Her womb.
The Holy Spirit appeared
amongst men, for an anticipated prolonged Pentecost: Love for "Her
Whom He loved", Consolation to men because of the Fruit of Her
Womb, Sanctification on account of the Maternity of the Holy One.
God, to reveal Himself to
men in the new and complete form, which starts the Redemption era,
did not select for His throne a star in the sky, nor the palace of a
powerful man. Neither did He want the wings of angels as the base of
His feet. He wanted a spotless womb.
Also Eve had been created
spotless. But she wanted to become corrupt of her own free will.
Mary, Who lived in a corrupt world - Eve was in a pure world - did
not wish to violate Her purity, not even with one thought remotely
connected with sin. She knew that sin exists. She saw its various and
horrible forms and implications. She saw them all, including the most
hideous one: deicide. But She knew them solely to expiate them and to
be, forever, the Woman who has mercy on sinners and prays for their
redemption.
This thought will be the
introduction to other holy things that I will give for your benefit
and the welfare of many people. »
