Thursday 1st July 1954
– Mimi: “Ô Precious Blood of my Jesus, pour just one drop of this Divine Blood on my soul to purify it.”
– Jesus: “Yes, my poor little one, you must offer with Me and atone. My Precious Blood is so abused even by those who frequent My sacraments. How many attend and understand the importance of Holy Mass or of My Precious Blood which is the same as the one on the cross? Precious Blood that I gave till the last drop out of love for you and for mankind.
My dear little one, if you knew how much I love you! Offer Me in return many acts of love. Don’t wait for Me to ask. This will console Me for the indifference of so many others.
My beloved little spouse, ask Me each day for the grace of accomplishing well your duties towards Me. For, during this month, you will have a lot to suffer in order to atone, repair, and merit. I need souls. Help Me. It is important for Me and for you.
On the 8th of July, the day of your anniversary, My Father in His goodness gave you life. Ask your director to offer you to My Father with Me; through the hands of My Father, I will take possession of your whole being. You are all Mine. I know it and I want everything. However, remove the obstacle between Us. I will love you so much more. My little beloved spouse, gather yourself with confidence into My Divine arms.”
5 July 1954
– Mimi: 1st day of retreat of my director. Mass, communion, presided by my director.
Lots of work, headache… the pain is getting worse.
– Mimi: “My God, I am suffering but I love You.”
– Jesus: “My little one, offer Me this pain in atonement for your sins and especially for a soul that is consecrated to Me and is going to gravely offend Me. Pray, fast a lot. Accept to save this soul.”
– Mimi: “Yes, my Beloved. Even though I am suffering greatly, I accept with love and resignation Your Holy Will. Thank You for helping me endure this evil and remain silent.”
In order not to worry my mother, I went to practice the piano as usual. I was in such pain, I would have preferred remaining quietly at home.
– Jesus: “My dear little one, why didn’t you visit Me before practicing your piano? In the future, think twice! Think of what I represent for you…”
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I sincerely ask Your forgiveness. You are so good to me! Thank You for showing me my mistakes. I so want to please You in all things. Increase my love and confidence so that I may better serve You and do Your Holy Will.
My Gentle Mother of heaven, lend me Your heart and Your humility to receive Your Gentle Jesus!
Tuesday 6 July 1954
– Jesus: “My dear little one, don’t go so fast in doing your chores… Be patient! Accomplish each action as if I were near you… Don’t forget, I am in you. Do not neglect anything as if you were to die this very day.”
– Mimi: “My Beloved, you have placed me on the cross this evening. I accept it with love, out of love for You. My God, I ask Your forgiveness for the lie I said. It wasn’t necessary. I hate myself for having offended You. Forgive me, my Beloved. I will try to keep silent when I am tempted to lie. To do this, I need Your help.
I notice that there is a lot of disorder in my interior dwelling. My Beloved, how great is Your love! In spite of everything, You still come to me who am filled with misery. My heart is so cold. My Beloved, warm me with Your Divine Love so that I may burn with love for You day after day.”
Wednesday 7 July 1954
– Jesus: “Offer Me your work, your fatigue. Think of those poor missionaries.”
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I come to recite my rosary before going for my practice.”
− Jesus: “My dear little one, why do you stay at the back of the church to recite your rosary? Come closer to My Divine Mother. Look at Her. Speak to Her in all confidence. Do not hesitate to cry on Her shoulder. Does a mother reject her child who is suffering? On the contrary. She presses her to Her heart. She understands your misery… She is ready to help you. Give Her your hand. She will not forsake you during this… and She will not abandon you at the moment of your death, because you trusted Her and gave Her your love…
My dear little one, you offered me your work, fine. But to please Me, offer Me acts of love. I am so happy when your little heart offers me these surges of love. How I love you, My little beloved spouse. Prepare your soul to receive tomorrow the graces I will send you for the greater glory of My Father.”
Friday 9 July 1954
– Mimi: “My God, help me. I am in so much pain! Give me the strength to go to the chapel to hear Holy Mass and receive communion…My Beloved, what is going on? I am afraid! There is something going on that I don’t understand!”
– Jesus: “My little one, why are you so surprised? Didn’t I warn you yesterday that I would take full possession of your being? I want everything. Everything must be purified.”
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I accept everything. May Your Holy Will be done”
I did not have any breakfast. I was too sick and I offered this in atonement for being greedy last night and eating too much chocolate.
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I thank You for showing me my weaknesses… You know that I don’t want to refuse You anything. But consider my weakness, my frailty… Give me the strength and courage to overcome my faults. I sincerely ask Your forgiveness. Without You, I can do nothing.”
Rosary, holy hour for the intentions of my director who is on retreat. This evening, rosary said on my knees in spite of the pain.
Saturday 10 July 1954
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I ask Your forgiveness for the criticisms I made today. Poor Jesus! I was proposing, this morning, not to offend You. Hardly a few hours have gone by and I have already caused You sorrow. Poor Jesus! Woe is me with my miseries! What would it be like if I didn’t have You in me? To help You forget, I will become silent…”
– Jesus: “Ô My poor little one, I am sad. Why are you so prone to criticism and then, in My presence you remain silent? You don’t know how to speak to Me.
As of now, My dear little beloved spouse, to atone for all these weaknesses and to help you get rid of this fault, you will make a sacrifice of all your opinions… your impressions, and when someone asks you your opinion, you will answer frankly, simply, without adding anything. This will mortify your spirit. I give you permission.
And with Me, do just the contrary. Yes, talk… Yes, talk to Me about everything, about your love, your repentance, your wishes. There are so many things we can talk about. I, your God and you, My little spouse. From now on, in My presence, talk to Me with confidence and if sometimes you do not know what to say, ask Me to speak to you and you will listen in silence.
And if you should happen not to hear My voice, don’t worry. Speak to Me anyhow. Tell Me especially that you believe, that you love Me, that you count on Me… and that I live in you in spite of your failures.
Do you recognize My goodness towards you, My poor little one… My little girl? If you knew how much I love you, my beloved little spouse. If you could see the state of My heart when you express your love for Me. Yes, My heart is jubilant… when you are humbled after each one of your sins and remember your past. My joy is even greater when you suffer, you accept to suffer with Me to atone for your sins and for the salvation of souls.”
Sunday 11 July 1954
– Mimi: From early morning, I was planning to write and do my meditation but suddenly arrived visitors for the whole day.
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I accept Your Holy Will.”
It was only at 5 p.m. that I was able to go to church for my holy hour.
– Mimi: “My Gentle Mother of heaven, give me the necessary dispositions to make a good and holy retreat for the greater glory of God. Grant me the grace to be humble so that the Holy Spirit may visit my poor soul.”
My Beloved, I allow You to act freely in me. Give me the courage to look at my life, my poor life, to look at my past. Increase in me a repentance for my sins, especially for my lack of confidence after all that You have done for such a long time. Open my eyes so that I may see all the ugliness of my sins. Engrave in my soul all the sorrow that I have caused You. Ô Infinite Goodness, give me also true contrition. How evil I have been! How was I able to live so disorderly.
My Beloved, yes, I want to clean up my dwelling. Purified by Your grace, I want to be able to say: Here is Your dwelling, Ô my Love, take possession of it forever. It is Yours!
My Gentle Mother of heaven, help me please to clean up my interior dwelling. Tell me what I must do to render it agreeable to God. Please give me perseverance in my resolutions. Give me a spirit of piety, of meditation. Increase in me love and confidence.
Ô Mary Magdalene, grant me the grace of a little peace and quiet so that I may meditate, write, read and make a good retreat.
However, may Your Holy Will be done.”
Tuesday 13 July 1954
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I offer You my fatigue, this heat in atonement for my sins.”
It was very hot. I said to Him:
– Mimi: “How I would like to be sitting by a stream, alone, instead of ironing. How I would also like to be far, very far away. To be alone with You in order to chat freely with You, to rest in Your presence. I offer all this to You out of love.”
– Jesus: “My dear little beloved spouse, why look beyond you for what you wish… You would like to be near a brook as a refreshment. Come and visit Me in church and look at Me on the cross… Look at this blood pouring freely for you and for souls. My heart is larger than a brook. It is an ocean of mercy where you can bathe without fear of drowning.
You wish to be far away, alone with Me… My dear little one, nothing prevents you from coming close to Me in My sacrament of love.”
Thursday 15 July 1954
– Mimi: “My Beloved, it is with confidence that I approach the sacrament of penance.”
– Mimi: “My Beloved, it is at Your feet that I weep over my sins…Ô Holy Spirit, enlighten me so that I may make a good and holy confession.
My Gentle Mother of heaven, You who told Your Divine Son, at the wedding feast of Cana to make a miracle, I beg You to ask Your Gentle Son for my true and sincere conversion. My soul si worth more than a cup of wine, don’t You think? I am certain that He cannot refuse You anything. My Gentle Mother of heaven, share with me Your humility. Increase in me the repentance for having offended God. After all that He has done for me, for such a long time, how could I have been separated from Him for so long?
My Beloved, let me weep over my sins. I regret them. I sincerely ask Your forgiveness for all the sins of my whole life. Yes, I am weeping. Have pity on me, on my misery. It is with love and confidence that I approach You. You let Mary Magdalene weep for her sins at Your feet. It is on Your heart that I want to weep for my sins. Yes, near this heart that has loved me so, that has shed His blood out of love for me. In return, my Beloved Spouse, I offer You my poor little heart filled with love, confidence, sincerity…
If in the past I offended You, from now on I want to love You, to make You forget all my ingratitude and wickedness. With the brief time left, I want to dedicate it to atone, to expiate, but especially to love You even more and to make others love You. I count on You to help me keep my resolutions. I want to work hard at correcting my faults…
I allow You to do with me what You will. You know that I am all Yours, my Beloved Spouse. What joy it is to work with You for the salvation of souls. Yes, my wish is to continue working for You and for souls. I have not forgotten Our team work: You, my director and myself.
My Beloved, please grant all the wishes of my director. How hard he has worked for the last four years in pulling me away from the devil, in preparing me to receive all the necessary enlightenment concerning the state of life in which You have placed me. With his precious advice and examples, I have changed my ways.
I am now walking on the road that leads to heaven… It is joyfully and with resignation that I carry my daily cross accepting everything out of love and for whatever mission that You give me. I bowe with respect before Your Holy Will to give glory to God. However, my Beloved, do not leave me. I need You.”
Friday 16 Juy 1954
– Jesus: “Ask your director to prepare you for the mission I have in mind…”
− Mimi: “What mission do You mean, my Beloved?”
– Jesus: “Your director knows!!! Do as I ask… be obedient!”
Saturday 17 July 1954
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I ask Your forgivenes. I just made a criticism. To repair, I made several acts of love and to humiliate myself, I kissed the floor several times.”
– Jesus: “My little one, offer this sacrifice. Do not take any desert and pray a lot for there is a missionary who is discouraged and another of My priests who is about to give in to temptation. Pray a lot!”
– Mimi: “Look at my weakness. Hardly two hours ago, I was asking forgiveness for my sins and praying for others. And now it is my turn to fall. I ask myself why I told these lies. My Beloved, purify my spirit. Teach me to tell the complete truth… Once more, I ask Your forgiveness. I was working when suddenly I heard Your voice calling me to the statue of the Sacred Heart.
Here I am, my Beloved. I kiss His divine feet and ask forgiveness for my sins, those of all my life, those of my parents, for the sins of all the world. Then, in a surge of love and full of confidence, I kiss His divine forehead. I caress Him. I repeat that I adore Him, love Him, that I believe in Him, that I believe in His love for me. I was telling myself that if this statue were alive… I love Him more ardently…
Where does this voice come from saying:
− Satan: “All you are doing is to satisfy your affectionate nature… The surges of your heart are completely false. By kissing the statue, you are trying to obtain sensuous kisses…”
– Mimi: How upset I was!
− Mimi: “You know, my Beloved, You know the bottom of my soul, my ardent desire to love You…
An unexplainable fear prevents me from seeing my director. I struggled with this fear… for I knew that You were present in him… waiting for me in the confessional. It is with confidence that I opened the secret door of my soul. I shared with him my doubts, my temptations…
Thank You, my Beloved for a director who knows how to speak to my soul and shows me the needs of my soul. Like a doctor, he examines my moral infirmities and considers my miseries. With his words, he dresses my wounds caused by sin. And with his absolution, he places me once more into Your divine arms. He speaks to me about Your love for me, Your infinite mercy. He is so convincing that he increases in me my confidence and love.
Yes, I want to follow his advice, that is, to throw myself into Your arms with total confidence. I wish to love You more and more. All is for You, my Beloved who loves me so.”
18 July 1954
– Mimi: I was going down a street. There were two youn men who were cursing. How awful it was to hear them,
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I ask forgiveness for them. They know not what they are doing. Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament, I adore You and love You. Ô Divine Blood contained in the chalice, purify the mind and heart of these two young men!”
Monday 19 July 1954
– Mimi: “My Beloved, today I want to please You and refuse You nothing because I love You. Give me patience! I was planning on making a holy hour. My Beloved, may Your will be done. I offered myself to go to the doctor with my sister who is ill and then go shopping with her. While waiting in the store: my Beloved, I love You! How I would like to be with You at this moment in the church!”
– Jesus: “My beloved little spouse, I am here within you. You please Me when you think of Me.”
– Mimi: “I am very tired. It’s very hot! I offer You all this discomfort in atonement for my sins… to please You more and to mortify my body, I offer myself to carry the heaviest parcels during 4 hours. I could hardly remain standing, so great was the pain.”
– Jesus: “My little one, think of Me. I walked for 33 years out of love for you and for souls.”
– Mimi: “Thank You my Beloved. You have helped me continue my journey… Yes, I offer out of love, I wish to save souls”
Tuesday 21 July 1954
– Mimi: “Help me be charitable towards my neighbor. Remove from my mind this feeling of resentment towards a person.”
Thursday 22 July 1954
– Mimi: Feast of Saint Mary Magdalene. Make me respond to the love of God. I ask you to intercede for me in favor of my Beloved. Painful work for me. In church.
– Mimi: “My Beloved, it is in all humility and repentance that I approach You to spend an hour with You. We have so much to tell each other don’t we, my Beloved? Like Mary Magdalene, it is with confidence that I will speak of my miseries, of my desires. I will recite my third rosary with my eyes closed to please You.”
− Mary: “Very well, my little one, but you should have closed them sooner for you were looking at the people. This would have mortified your eyes. See, My dear little one how much I care about you! It is because I love you that I wish to make your soul agreeable to My Father. He has done a lot for you. Out of gratitude, love Me more!”
After holy hour, I approach the marian grotto.
– Mimi: “How beautiful You are, my Gentle Mother. I thank You for accepting to become my Mother. Consider me Your most frail, weakest child. Teach me to speak in total confidence with Your Divine Son. Teach me to walk on the right road. Guide each of my steps. But teach me especially to be more obedient.”
Friday 23 July 1954
– Mimi: “Good morning, my Beloved. I love You. My whole day is Yours. I beg You, my Beloved, help me put up with this conflict. Grant me the grace that my mother may sleep without noticing what is going on: Difficulty in sleeping because of a loud radio in the next room. It is only quarter to seven. I wonder why they open the radio so early. This gets on my nerves and I suffer greatly because I think of mom who has so much trouble sleeping. However, I offer You everything… Thank You my Beloved… Mom didn’t notice anything.”
In church, holy hour. I was reciting my rosary. I was praying for us poor sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
− Eternal Father: “Pray well for the hour of your death… I will come to get little Michelle. Ask that she be buried in your lot for you will have one more martyr. Then, your turn will come. Prepare yourself and, for the little time left for you to live, consecrate it to loving Me more. Offer more to atone for your sins and be united to the Passion of My Son. Carry your daily little cross with love and resignation to save souls and to please and give homage to God.”
I was making the way of the cross. I was meditating on the beautiful gesture of Saint Veronica.
– Mimi: “How I would like to have the same privilege as Veronica, that of wiping Your adorable face and keeping in my soul the divine imprint of Your face.”
– Jesus: “My dear beloved little spouse, you have the same privilege when you express acts of love for you console Me and wipe away My tears. You wish to keep on the white cloth the imprint of My divine image. My dear little one, you have more than that. When you receive Me in your soul, not only do you have the imprint of My face but you have all My Divinity. I am totally there.
Think often of My presence in you and prostrate yourself before Me. Adore Me, love Me. Kiss the earth in a spirit of humility in atonement for your sins and for those committed each day. Make yourself small in Me, in My powerful arms.”
Saturday 24 July 1954
– Mimi: “Good morning my Beloved. I am Yours. I adore You and love You… Once more, the same trial as yesterday: music at 7. Help me please to put up with it. Thank You, thank You. Mom continues to sleep.”
– Mimi: “My Beloved, give me patience. I cannot meditate quietly. You know why… Thank You, thank You for helping me put up with it. I cannot live without You. I am always needing You. Even for the least detail. I need Your presence in me.”
– Jesus: “My little one, keep this morning’s trial a secret. (the awakening because of the radio) Do this for Me.”
– Mimi: Hardly a half-hour goes by and I give away the secret to my little sister, Marcelle… At that moment, I felt guilty. My grief was so great for not having listened to You. Once at home, I threw myself at the feet of the Sacred Heart statue. I kissed His feet asking His forgiveness. I wept bitterly because of this sin… And to make Him forget, I made often, very often, acts of love.
(visit to church. Recitation of my rosary)
Sunday 25 July 1954
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I love You. My day is totally Yours. Grant me the grace not to offend You. I was greatly surprised and happy to attend the mass said by my director and to receive communion. He had been away for eight days. Sometimes, I felt like an orphan. I needed him but he was so far away. It was near You that I went for advice. Thank You my Beloved for all these marks of affection, especially for this morning’s mass… and for the little ray of sun.”
Monday 26 July 1954
Feast of Saint Ann
– Mimi: “My patron saint. I am happy to carry such beautiful names: Ann, Mary. Good morning my Beloved. Another rude awakening from the radio in the neighboring room. My God, grant me the grace, please, that mom may not notice what is going on. Thank You. She is sleeping soundly.”
Mass, communion. I am suffering a lot.
– Mimi: “My Beloved, the temptation is getting worse. The devil is taking advantage of me. He wants to convince me that You are no longer within me. My God, My Beloved Spouse, I believe, I adore You and I love You. You know it. Strengthen my faith. Increase my love. I have full confidence in Your Merciful Love.
The struggle has been going on for several hours.
– Mimi: “My God, come to my aid. I can’t go on! I’m afraid of disturbing my director, of making an act of humility. I will go to him with confidence. I want to tell him all my temptations. I will especially speak to him about the struggle I have undertaken.”
Visit to my director.
– Mimi: “I who was so fearful! He received me with a big smile. This gave me confidence and I opened the door of my soul.”
I was comfortable in speaking to him… just as if You had been there… I felt Your divine presence in him… He spoke to me gently. He also spoke to me about Your love for me, of all that You have done for me and of all that You expect from me. I was so moved, so happy when he gave me absolution to reassure me and give me peace. My joy was too great, I who thought I had lost You, my Love. The sorrow I felt at the thought of having lost You for a moment!
Thank You, my love, for reassuring me that You are there present in me in spite of all the temptations. And I didn’t stop repeating: he is there, my love. He is in me! I believe, I adore You and I love You.”
Visit to the doctor. I hate going to the doctor… examinations.
– Mimi: “My God, I offer this to You! You know how I hate examinations of this kind. I accept everything out of love for You and for souls and in atonement for my sins. How often I took advantage of this body! I won’t complain to anybody.”
After examination, I can hardly walk, the pain is so great!
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I have come to get my strength back, near You, for I have to go back home. Please give me serenity in order not to worry mom. How anxious I am to receive You. I thank You for all the graces I received today: meditation, preparation for communion.
Till tomorrow, my Gentle Mother of heaven! I love You! Cradle me in Your arms. I am so sick, so little. Thank You!”
There was a man looking for worms to go fishing… I was thinking while looking at him: he is looking for worms while he is alive, but when he dies, it is the worms that will be looking for him! Poor human nature!
As for myself, the worms won’t have much to nibble on my flesh! Tough! They can suck my bones and will be disappointed because I have taken so much medecine during my life!
Tuesday 27 July 1954
– Mimi: “My God! Please help me! My whole day is Yours. May Your Holy Will be done!”
