| "My child, the good God wishes
to charge you with a mission. You will have much to
suffer, but you will rise above these sufferings by
refelcting that what you do is for the glory of God.
You will know what the good God wants. You will be
tormented until you have told him who is in charge
with directing you. You will be contradicted, but
do not fear, you will have grace. Tell with confidence
all that passes within you. Tell it with simplicity.
Have confidence. Do not be afraid. "
"There will be bad times to come. Misfortunes
will come crashing down on France. The throne will
be toppled. The whole world will be turned upside-down
by misfortunes of all kinds [...] But come to the
foot of this altar. There, graces will be poured out
on all those, small, or great, who ask for them with
confidence and fervour. Graces will be poured out
especially [on those who ask for them. Grave troubles
are coming. There will be great danger, for this,
the novitiate and other communities. At one moment
when the danger is acute, everyone will believe all
to be lost; you will recall my visit and [the novitiate]
will have the protection of God. But it will not be
the same for other communities."
"There will be victims [...] There will be victims
among the clergy of Paris; Monsignor the Archbishop
will die [...] My child, the Cross will be held in
contempt. It will be thrown to the ground and trampled.
Blood will flow. Our Saviour's side will be opened
anew. The streets will run with blood. Monsignor the
Archbishop will be stripped of his vestments ...My
child, the whole world will be plunged into gloom."
"My eyes will ever be upon you. I shall grant
you graces. Special graces will be given to all who
ask them, but people must pray."
"The ball which you see represents the whole
world, especially France, and each person in particular.
These rays symbolise the graces I shed upon those
who ask for them. The gems from which rays do not
fall are the graces for which souls forget to ask."
