The Passion
Extract 10
Jesus
While My Heart offers to suffer all these ordeals, Peter, whom I had named “Leader and Head of the Church” and who hours
before had promised to follow Me unto My death, denies Me in response to a simple question that is asked of him and
which could have served him in giving testimony of Me. And as fear seizes him even more, when the question is repeated,
he swears that he has never known Me nor has he been My disciple. Questioned for the third time, he answered with
terrible curses.
Little children, when the world protests against Me and, turning towards My chosen souls, I see Myself abandoned and
denied, do you know how great is the sadness and bitterness in My Heart?
I shall tell them as I told Peter: Soul, whom I love so much, do you not remember the tests of love that I have given
you? Have you forgotten that many times you have promised Me to be faithful and to defend Me?
You do not trust yourself because you are lost; but if you come to Me with humbleness and firm trust, fear nothing; you
are well sustained.
Souls, you, who live surrounded by so many dangers, do not enter into occasions of sin through vain curiosity; be
careful that you could fall like Peter.
And you souls who work in My vineyard, if you feel moved by curiosity or by some human satisfaction, I shall tell you to
run away. But if you work for obedience and are propelled by zeal for souls and for My Glory, be not afraid. I will
defend you and you shall depart victorious.
My beloved, I am educating you little by little and with much patience. I am consoled with the thought of having a pupil
eager to learn. Thus, I forget your negligence and mistakes. If I look in creation for the most beautiful names to call
you, be not afraid. Why do you suppress them? Love has no limits.
