In the deep of the night, as I was thinking, Jesus said to me:
“You transcribed your prayers of love, as I told you to,168 your steps along the way of the Cross. They are more valuable than the visions and the dictations. The latter are a ‘school,’ and you are a pupil. They are an ‘examination result’ on what you are. And you know people cannot call themselves educated unless they show proof that they are. As long as they remain at their desks and listen distractedly, without will, can they say they are educated? No, they cannot. But when, at the end of school, they give proof of what is in them and speak about the wisdom they possess instead of listening to the teacher, one can then say, ‘This is what the student thinks.’ And they are approved, with a certificate which opens the doors for them to employment and income.
“And for you the gates to heavenly gain, the possession of God, shall be opened, not because you are a ‘spokesman,’ but because you are a voluntary victim, because with the word of the spirit, with the word of love, you have written ‘those’ words to crystallize on paper what your spirit was already doing. This alone will be of value to judge you on earth and in Heaven. And this alone will explain why I have made you a ‘spokesman.’ Because you showed good will and strong love.
“Be at peace, with my blessing.”
