When Maria had almost finished writing her major work – which will be published in ten volumes entitled The Gospel as it was revealed to me – she was seized with nostalgia for her Lord, thinking that she would never see Him again. But He came to console her with a promise: “I will always come. And for you alone. And it will be even sweeter for you as I will be everything for you … I will take you higher, into the pure spheres of pure contemplation … From now on you will only contemplate … I will make you forget about the world for my love “. It was March 14, 1947, her 50th birthday. Just a month later, on April 18, in one of her letters to her spiritual mother (the Carmelite cloistered Mother Teresa Maria of St. Joseph) she confided that she had even offered her intellect to God.
