It was G.K. Chesterton who quipped that the Church is the one continual institution to have been thinking about thinking for 2,000 years, and it is for this reason, as Chesterton also quipped, that she saves us from the ignominy of ignorance which makes us children of our own time and slaves of the zeitgeist. It is she who enables us to think outside the temporal box.

These notebooks belong to a category of mystical literature which the Catholic Church has long been familiar with: that of so-called "private revelations". A private revelation is not binding for the faith of Christians, but its value is to be measured by its capacity to instruct and inflame souls, spurring them to love God more and apply divine teachings to their everyday lives.
