Sunday 2 September 1956
– Mimi: I was watching the birds fly. How I would like to be in their place, free, and not bound to this earth.
– Jesus: “My dear little girl, it is easy for you to be like a little bird. Sometimes you have the brains of a bird. What could prevent you from flying towards me? What prevents you from being free? True, your wings are so small. You are so weak and could easily fall.”
Monday 3 September 1956
– Mimi: I had just finished reading the yellow pages in which my director was making remarks that I deserved. As I read this, I said to my Beloved :
– Mimi: “Don’t you think that my director is going a bit too far?”
– Jesus: “Why no, my Beloved. I approve him. There is no limitations in directing your soul and keeping you humble. It is you who are going too far by making this remark. You are very wrong and you have offended me. Don’t forget that he who despises you despises me. When you are in error, would you like your director to close his eyes, write on white pages, sign a certificate of good behavior, shake your hand congratulating you for your faults? Do you think you deserve praise when your weakness depends on a few strains of white hair? Believe me, my Beloved, I am well pleased with the beautiful work of your director. But I can’t say the same for you. After this, are you still going to make remarks on the actions of your director who represents me and to whom I entrusted the direction of your little soul.”
Thursday 6 September 1956
– Mimi: “My Beloved, when I am in your arms I forget everything. I am so happy.”
– Jesus: “True, my Beloved. And I when I am at the center of your great temptations, I forget everything, that I am with my loved one. A good thing your director is there! Do you see the importance of being two to offer and why I ask you both to offer?”
Friday 7 September 1956
– Mimi: “My God, grant me to see, to hear, to walk.”
Until now, I was on the cross with my Beloved, but, he made me understand that I still wasn’t attached to the cross with him. I was well adapted to physical suffering, but not enough to moral suffering. I was afraid of crossing the somber tunnel of spiritual aridity and of great temptations. I don’t have a minute to lose. God wants it all. He will take it all and that will be all from my poor little nothingness. I need his love so much to sustain me, to follow him. It won’t be long. There was only the head and heart that was left. The doctors are talking about an operation of the spinal column. A good thing it isn’t in the fifth column. In time of war, it would be dangerous.
Monday 24 September 1956
– Mimi: On the tenth, I had a heart attack and the pain was getting worse. My family called the doctor in an emergency disturbing him for so little. When he arrived, he gave me an injection and said :
– Doctor: “For now, I don’t think it’s necessary to call the priest and if, however, there is a relapse, you are ready for heaven.”
– Mimi: “Such is the opinion of a human being, my Beloved.”
This made me smile. I was saying to myself : he is much more ill than I when he talks this way. I didn’t think that he was so blind. He didn’t know that in the spiritual life, I was very sick, full of infirmities and very weak. I am like a newborn. I don’t see very clearly. I can’t walk alone. That is why I drag myself when I am too tired. My Beloved leans over me, takes me in his arms and lets me rest on his adorable heart and I remain there like a child spoiled by grace and merciful love.
Wednesday 26 September 1956
– Mimi: I was preparing the confession of my retreat.
– Jesus: “My Beloved, give me drink. I thirst. Give me your sins, your imperfections, your failures of each day, your miseries, your faults, your joys. Yes, I thirst and I want to be satisfied.”
– Mimi: “How can all my sins, my Beloved, satisfy you? They are so shameful, so ugly, so contemptible, so repulsive!”
– Jesus: “My Beloved, isn’t it for them that I shed my Divine Blood? It certainly isn’t for your merits that I gave you all this. Give me all your sins. Give me all of them and throw yourself with them into the infinite ocean of my mercy. Do you understand my merciful love? My Beloved, my dear little spouse, the more your are full of misery, the more I love you. Such is the infinite love of a God for his poor little creature. In return, all that he wants is pure love.
“Come, come, I am waiting for you with extended arms to receive you as the prodigal child, with an open heart to forgive you like Mary Magdalene. In the presence of your sincere love, your confidence, your repentance, I will tell you like the good thief : ‘My Beloved, this very day, I will remember you in my kingdom but especially in my heart.”
Thursday 27 September 1956
– Mimi: “My Beloved, may there be nothing between us.”
– Jesus: “Fear not, my Beloved. I am watching over him like I am watching over you. I have no negative comments to make. He respects you as a consecrated host and you respect him as you do me. To re-assure you, you know how you felt the other day when you received the gift. It is quite natural in your case. In spite of your age, your little affectionate nature remains childlike. This is what pleases me. You do well to control your sincere feelings in front of everyone. However, you must not exaggerate by remaining or seeming indifferent to what we are doing to you or to what we are giving you. Be natural, little, humble when being thankful and remain sincere. My Beloved, this is why I chose you, that I took possession of your little heart, so that it would not be divided. I knew you with your little affectionate nature. This is why that in order to satisfy your little heart, I have received you into mine. You please me so much when you suffer and approach me to speak to me about simple love. You know what happens between us?
“Isn’t it true that only Divine Love can produce this effect in your little soul? Remember especially my embrace on Good Friday and the little medal! Yes, we spent such memorable moments in love and suffering.”
– Mimi: “You know, my Beloved, how affectionate my little heart becomes in your presence.”
– Jesus: “My little treasure of love, I know you so well. Continue having in my presence a warm heart burning with love for me alone. But be careful with your little affectionate nature. With your little warm heart, it isn’t a reason for burning others even by writing to them. You know what I mean.”
Friday 28 September 1956
– Jesus: “My Beloved, I am more strict with you than with others. Your faults, your mishaps, your imperfections, I consider them serious for they are against your God, your Spouse. And a spouse chosen by God cannot allow herself to offend him in the slightest way. It is to insult him after all that he has given you out of love. I want you to be so pure, to render you agreeable to my Father before the final encounter. Think about what our eternal union will be like.”
Saturday 29 September 1956
– Mimi: “Thank you, my God, I am so happy to have once more given you everything. I was so anxious to receive you. It seemed to me that I was receiving you for the first time. My Beloved, this is too much. I don’t deserve this. I have finally found what I was looking for, peace of soul, of heart and especially of the mind. I am free. Yes, free for him alone, with love and confidence. I jump into your powerful arms forever.
“Now, my only preoccupation will be to do and accept your Holy Will at all times in order to show you my love and gratitude and to save souls.
“You know, my Beloved, that sometimes my desires are great and my actions slow. However, consider my good will, my efforts, my struggles. But especially my love. With your grace, I want to follow you faithfully and refuse you nothing.”
– Jesus: “My Beloved, it is by a special privilege that I use you to offer, to suffer with me for the salvation of souls. Love me, especially when I come with the great temptations, the trials. Kiss the cross lovingly each day. It is in preparation of what I expect, of what I have in store. Thank me each time I ask you for more and be generous, faithful as a spouse of Christ.
“My little treasure, my Beloved, the last stage of your life has begun. It will perhaps not be long before the gentle encounter. You must be attached to the cross with me out of love. I want all and expect all from your love and I will take all, and it will be all before giving you all. Think also of your children. Come, my little host of love, my little consecrated host of my Precious Blood by our union in love and suffering. Tell me that you accept to follow me to the end, even in my sufferings, in my passion, in my agony, in my death on the cross, for the salvation of the world. Don’t forget that you must die a victim of my love. It is the most beautiful gift I can offer you before possessing me forever.”
Sunday 30 September 1956
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I think I lost the copy of our conversation. I perhaps tore it up by mistake.”
– Jesus: “My Beloved, don’t worry. A good thing you didn’t lose your bearings.”
– Mimi: “My Beloved, I don’t need to lose it for the road that I have to follow to reach you is quite long. All I need is that my map be in good order. Otherwise, I risk getting lost forever. But I trust in you and in my guide to lead me to you.”
