380 I make no movement, no gesture after my own liking, because I am bound by grace; I always consider what is more pleasing to Jesus.


381 When meditating once on obedience, I heard these words:In this meditation, the priest 90 is speaking particularly for you. Know that I am borrowing his lips. I tried to listen most attentively to everything and to apply everything to my own heart, as in every meditation. When the priest said that an obedient soul was filled with the power of God….. Yes, when you are obedient I take away your weakness and replace it with My strength. I am very surprised that souls do not want to make that exchange with Me. I said to the Lord, “Jesus, enlighten my heart, or else I, too, will not understand much from these words.”
