These words, 177 2, 39 | you should be separated from your bodies. Then, indeed, 178 2, 39 | the Word, face to face.

Now, as I told 189 2, 40 | order to raise the soul from imperfection, I withdraw 190 2, 40 | imperfection, I withdraw Myself from her sentiment, depriving 191 2, 40 | she had separated herself from Me, and I deprived her of 192 2, 40 | by grace, withdraw Myself from her by sentiment, which 193 2, 40 | soul does in order to rise from imperfection and arrive 194 2, 40 | perfection, that I withdraw from her, not by grace but by 195 2, 41 | and perfection is acquired from Me, so is it manifested 196 2, 41 | without expecting any return from him, and what you do to 197 2, 41 | conversation turned aside from him, or himself deprived 198 2, 41 | love was originally drawn from Me, the Fountain of all 199 2, 41 | water, in order to drink from it. It is because his love 200 2, 41 | reason do I withdraw myself from the soul by sentiment, that 201 3, 1 | prayer, separated entirely from the consolations of the 202 3, 1 | herself in? She does so from fear, knowing her own imperfections, 203 3, 1 | imperfections, and also from the desire, which she has, 204 3, 1 | whatever it be, nor rises from holy prayer, for any reason 205 3, 1 | soul can defend herself from every adversary, if grasped 206 3, 2 | and how the soul proceeds from vocal to mental prayer, 207 3, 2 | thought or movement coming from her own body, or of the 208 3, 2 | such ardor and nourishment from prayer, if she pray only 209 3, 2 | and, in order to escape from his deceit, and to be pleasing 210 3, 2 | which is never withheld from him who will receive it) 211 3, 2 | Me, and she will arrive, from the vocal imperfect prayer, 212 3, 2 | to loosen her affection from herself, and fasten it in 213 3, 3 | the soul separates herself from imperfect love, and attains 214 3, 3 | the soul raises herself from imperfection and attains 215 3, 3 | her own consolations. But from this hatred, founded in 216 3, 3 | good, I withdraw delight from her mind. And if her sensuality, 217 3, 3 | things that in reality come from Me, which is what My sweet 218 3, 4 | Spirit, when they came forth from the house, and fearlessly 219 3, 4 | the fourth state, that is, from the third state, which is 220 3, 5 | latter have issued forth from the house, which is a sign 221 3, 5 | sign that they have arisen from imperfection and arrived 222 3, 5 | of the soul's affection, from thence arriving at the Side, 223 3, 5 | by finite pain. I poured from it Blood and Water, to show 224 3, 5 | the grace which he drew from Holy Baptism in virtue of 225 3, 5 | when the Soul was separated from the Body; but the fruit, 226 3, 6 | endure privation, and I take from him the goods of the world 227 3, 8 | Word, the Son, had borne from the beginning when I sent 228 3, 8 | the Sea Pacific, raised from imperfection, far from satiety, 229 3, 8 | raised from imperfection, far from satiety, and arrived at 230 3, 9 | he desired to be loosened from the body, as they do, who 231 3, 9 | his soul was not separated from his body, except through 232 3, 10 | And when I depart from the soul in the aforesaid 233 3, 10 | charity is a fire proceeding from Me, ravishing their heart 234 3, 11 | sacrifices, ravishing away from them their darkness, give 235 3, 11 | were formed, wherefore, from the intellect came science, 236 3, 11 | New Testament proceeded from the same light, the new 237 3, 11 | fear alone, being taken from it, by the coming of the 238 3, 11 | Every light that comes from Holy Scripture comes and 239 3, 11 | Scripture comes and came from this supernatural light. 240 3, 11 | course the natural light from whence proceeds science. 241 3, 11 | may appear to you, that, from what he says, the Scriptures 242 3, 11 | the soul being separated from the body, as I told you 243 3, 12 | devout soul seeks knowledge from God concerning the state 244 3, 12 | nevertheless she had joy from the hope of the promise 245 3, 12 | tears, she wished to learn from the Truth concerning the 246 3, 12 | the fruit that resulted from weeping. Wishing then to 247 3, 12 | Wishing then to know this from the Sweet, Supreme and First 248 3, 12 | the truth cannot be learnt from any other than from the 249 3, 12 | learnt from any other than from the Truth Himself, and nothing 250 3, 13 | belong to men who abandon sin from fear of punishment, and 251 3, 13 | in one soul, who, rising from fear and imperfect love, 252 3, 14 | of these tears, arising from the explanation of the aforesaid 253 3, 14 | that every tear proceeds from the heart, for there is 254 3, 14 | death, because proceeding from the heart, they are caused 255 3, 14 | disordinate love distinct from the love of Me; for such 256 3, 14 | weep, which tears issue from the very fountain of her 257 3, 14 | the consolation received from Me, the external being that 258 3, 14 | being that which she had from the creature, and when temptations 259 3, 14 | finally perfect self-hatred. From this she draws true knowledge 260 3, 14 | indeed been able to pass from the stormy ocean to Me, 261 3, 14 | union with Me), developed from the grief belonging to the 262 3, 14 | would fall at once, vomited from the heights to the depths. 263 3, 14 | graces each has received from Me, to be ministered unto 264 3, 14 | soul abandon the affection from which it has been developed, 265 3, 15 | infinite desire of your soul from which they proceed. I have 266 3, 15 | told you how tears come from the heart, and how the heart 267 3, 15 | when the soul is separated from the body and has reached 268 3, 15 | charity, and having passed from this life in a state of 269 3, 16 | of their own sensuality, from which comes damage to their 270 3, 16 | that every tear proceeded from the heart, and this is the 271 3, 16 | corrupt, everything that grows from it is corrupt also. Self-love 272 3, 16 | against a man's neighbor, from which often come many evils, 273 3, 16 | remove themselves far away from the love of My servants' 274 3, 16 | are the words which issue from their mouth in insult to 275 3, 16 | fault, because the heart from which they proceeded was 276 3, 16 | How much danger, apart from the spiritual privation 277 3, 17 | satisfaction which she had received from the Truth, concerning the 278 3, 17 | flee far in darkness away from Your doctrine, of which 279 3, 17 | judging keeps the soul far from You, so I do not wish to 280 3, 18 | three lights which issue from Me, the True Light. The 281 3, 18 | light of reason you draw from Me the True Light, by means 282 3, 18 | have two lights derived from this primary light, and 283 3, 20 | battle-field to deliver you from the hands of the Devil, 284 3, 20 | will, she shuns no labor from whatever source it comes, 285 3, 20 | seeking no reward, either from Me or from creatures, because 286 3, 20 | reward, either from Me or from creatures, because she is 287 3, 20 | and thus, rejoicing, draws from all the fragrance of the 288 3, 20 | daughter, never take offense from those they love, nor from 289 3, 20 | from those they love, nor from any rational creature, their 290 3, 20 | perfect purity, and be freed from stumbling-blocks, so that 291 3, 20 | and the further she is from Me, the more does her purity 292 3, 20 | for they are separated from Me, while the soul, who, 293 3, 20 | scandal separates the soul from Me, and prevents perfection, 294 3, 20 | benefits you have received from Me; and with the eye of 295 3, 21 | hunger without pain, for from that divine hunger pain 296 3, 21 | they desire, disgust is far from satiety, for I am the flawless 297 3, 22 | through grace and mercy, that, from today henceforward, I may 298 3, 22 | I may never again wander from the path of Your doctrine, 299 3, 22 | one of them may be taken from me by the hand of the infernal 300 3, 22 | me, miserable infirm one, from the beginning of my conversion 301 3, 22 | to You, because I know, from seeing what it has pleased 302 3, 22 | manifest, and still more from proof, that You are the 303 3, 23 | received and will receive from My goodness." ~ 304 3, 24 | be separated or divided from Me, as in the case of the 305 3, 24 | My power is not separated from His wisdom, nor the fiery 306 3, 24 | heat of the Holy Spirit from Me, the Father, or from 307 3, 24 | from Me, the Father, or from Him, the Son; for He is 308 3, 24 | the Holy Spirit proceeding from the Father and the Son, 309 3, 24 | for the benefits received from Me, the Eternal Father, 310 3, 24 | of these can be separated from each other, as I said to 311 3, 24 | nature, either by death or from any other cause. So that 312 3, 24 | you in order to take light from it -- the light itself does 313 3, 24 | nor can it be detached from its orbit. ~ 314 3, 24 | would not be separated from Me -- the True Sun, His 315 3, 24 | world came to take light from it, each would have it entire, 316 3, 25 | other benefits she receives from Me, the special Gift that 317 3, 25 | holy faith be taken away from her by infidelity. ~ 318 3, 25 | Divine nature, not detached from Me, as I revealed to you, 319 3, 25 | to you, and you saw issue from My breast a light, like 320 3, 25 | breast a light, like a ray from the sun, which proceeds 321 3, 25 | the sun, which proceeds from the circle of the sun without 322 3, 25 | without being separated from it, out of the midst of 323 3, 26 | seal, which, when lifted from the hot wax upon which it 324 3, 26 | was ever really separated from It, but constantly united 325 3, 28 | grace, which they have drawn from this True Light. With light 326 3, 28 | light cannot be separated from the warmth and color of 327 3, 28 | Sacraments, which draw their life from this Blood; this they do 328 3, 28 | the condition of the Sun from Me, the True Sun, because, 329 3, 28 | in deed, receiving virtue from Me. If you turn to Augustine, 330 3, 28 | servile fear, being free from it, and without any sin, 331 3, 28 | darkness of injustice, than from any other causes. ~ 332 3, 28 | on seeing one putrefying from the corruption of mortal 333 3, 28 | doing, he would cut him off from the congregation in order 334 3, 28 | other additional grace, from My Goodness. And therefore 335 3, 28 | love, they were in Me, and from Me they acquired the light 336 3, 28 | My only-begotten Son, and from Me they received the faculty 337 3, 28 | tyrants of the world, and from Me they had the fire of 338 3, 28 | rather recognized it to be from Me, and exercised it with 339 3, 28 | rested like good shepherds from putting the sheep into the 340 3, 28 | holy Cross, not fleeing from or refusing any labor, but 341 3, 29 | brought you a great treasure from which you obtained life, 342 3, 29 | that he should be cleansed from his foulness and properly 343 3, 29 | through their separation from My love, bring you great 344 3, 29 | Sacraments of the holy Church -- from which you obtain the life 345 3, 29 | grace which you receive from the great treasure, by which 346 3, 30 | fruit which love has drawn from the virtues. Oh, earthly 347 3, 30 | for the benefits received from Me, and have not been negligent 348 3, 31 | the darkness of self-love, from which has proceeded their 349 3, 31 | Your miseries are not hid from you now, for the worm of 350 3, 31 | death you may not escape from their hands, and therefore 351 3, 31 | mouth your heart was far from Me.
