Home again

 



Jesus speaks about how those who live in the Divine Will,  live in His home under His providence.  We were created to live in the Kingdom as our in home and in doing our own will we cast ourselves out of it and thereby lost all rights to his goods and his protection.


"This was the purpose of Creation – to have the creatures created by Us, Our beloved children, within Our own abode; to nourish them with Our own foods, to clothe them with royal garments, and to let them enjoy Our own goods. What terrestrial father and mother think of putting out of their home the fruit of their womb, their dear children, and of not giving their inheritance to their own children? No one, I believe; on the contrary, how many sacrifices do they not make in order to render their children rich and happy? If a terrestrial father and a mother reach this, much more so does the Celestial Father. He wanted and loved His children to remain in His home, so as to keep them around Himself, to delight with them and keep them as the crown of His creative hands. But man, ungrateful, abandoned Our home, refused Our goods, and contented himself with going wandering, living in the darkness of his human will.”
Vol. 28, August 15, 1930

Instead by living of our own will and not living in the Divine Will we make ourselves beggars exposed to every danger and inconstant in good and subject to earthly passions forever wandering.


"...one who does my Divine Will and does not live in It, finds herself in the condition of being able to receive, but not to give; and since she lives outside of God, not in God, she sees the earth, feels the passions, which put her in continuous danger and give her an intermittent fever, such that they feel now healthy, now sick; now they want to do good, and now they get tired, they are bored, they become irritated and leave good. They are just like those who do not have a home in which to be safe, but live in the middle of the street, exposed to cold, to rain, to the scorching sun, to dangers, and they live of alms. Just penalty, for one who could live in God, while she contents herself with living outside of God.”
Vol. 27, Jan. 10, 1930




...by withdrawing from Our Will, man lost his place; he remained without Our home, exposed to dangers.  All can touch him to harm him; the very elements are superior to him because they possess a Supreme Will, while he possesses a degraded human will, which can give him nothing but miseries, weaknesses and passions.  And because he lost his origin, his place, he remained without order, disharmonized from all, and he enjoys no peace, not even within himself.  So, it can be said that he is the only being wandering in the whole Creation, to whom nothing is due by right, because We give everything to one who lives in Our Will, for he is in Our home – he is one from Our family.  The relations, the bonds of sonship which he possesses by living in It, give him the right to all Our goods.  On the other hand, one who does not live of the Life of my Will, has broken, as though all at once, all the bonds, all the relations, therefore he is held by Us as something that does not belong to Us.  Oh! if all knew what it means to break up with Our Will, and into what abyss they fall - all would tremble with fright, and would compete in order to return into the Kingdom of the Eternal Fiat, to take their place again, assigned to them by God.
Vol. 20,  Sept, 26, 1926


God is working to bring us back home to His Kingdom but there is something that we must do to regain entrance, that is we must let go of all that we consider ours and be willing to unite ourselves to God's Will alone.  We must let go of all those things which we like to think comes from us which really comes from God through us.   By placing our will as a footstool to support his and our desire to live in his Will, this allows His Will to operate in us.  In a sense it is to give God his due, recognizing that no good can come from ourselves alone but only from God, and what good He can do!  While we work in the limits of time He works in eternity.  This does not only bring us back home, but by doing so we allow God to return to His residence his home as well, since we were created to be a home for God.



“My daughter, my human Will didn’t have one act of life, rather it remained in the act of receiving the continuous act of my Divine Will, that I possessed as Word of the celestial Father. Hence all the acts and sufferings, prayers, breaths, heartbeats of mine that I did, my human will undergoing the life of the Divine Will it formed so many knots in order to retie human wills to mine; and since these human wills were as residences, some collapsed, others damaged and others reduced in rubble, my Divine Will, working in my Humanity with my acts prepared the helps in order to sustain the collapsed ones, in order to cement the damaged ones and in order to raise again over the same rubble the destroyed residences. I did nothing for myself, I didn’t have any need; I did everything in order to redo, to rehabilitate human wills. My only need was love and that I wanted to be loved in return.
“Now in order to receive all my helps and all my sufferings and works as working works, speaking voices and helping messengers, the creature must unite her will to mine, and immediately she will feel herself retied with mine, and all my acts will lend themselves around (her) to do their offices in order to sustain, to cement and to raise the human will again. No sooner than she unites herself and decides to do my Divine Will(, then) all my acts as trained army put themselves at the defense of the creature, and form the safety boat in the tempestuous sea of life. But for one who doesn’t do my Will I could say that she receives nothing, nor can she receive, because He alone is the provider of all that which I did for love for the love of the creature.”
Vol. 30, Nov. 4, 1931


"...this lord goes around all the streets of the city, and as he finds one of the poorest women, homeless, without a bed, covered only with filthy rags, he takes her and brings her to his palace as triumph of his charity.  However, he orders her to lay down her rags, to clean herself and to clothe herself with the most beautiful garments; and in order to keep no memory of her poverty, to burn her rags.  In fact, since he is extremely rich, he does not admit anything into his house which gives of poverty.  Now, if the poor one sadly misses her rags, and afflicts herself because she has brought nothing of her own, would she not offend the goodness, the magnanimity of that lord?
           “So I am; and if that lord goes around one city, I go around the whole world, and maybe all generations; and wherever I find the littlest, the poorest one, I take her and place her in the eternal sphere of my Volition, saying to her:  ‘Work together with Me in my Will.  What is mine is yours.  If you have something of your own - lay it down, because in the sanctity and in the immense riches of my Will, it is nothing but miserable rags.
“Wanting to have one’s own merits is of servants, of slaves - not of sons and daughters.  What belongs to the father, belongs to his children.  Besides, what are all the merits that you could acquire compared to one single act of my Will?  All merits have their own little value, weight and measure, but who could ever measure one single act of my Will?  No one - no one.  And then, what are your merits compared to mine?  In my Will you will find them all, and I make of you the owner.  Aren’t you happy?"
Vol. 13, Jan. 20, 1922


And here we have the true beatitude of being poor in spirit.  To be poor in our own will not possessing anything of our own.


Matthew 5:2-3
2 Then he began to speak, and taught them, saying:
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.



So to give his Will free reign in us and the desire to live united in Him is the first true step to enter into His kingdom so that he begins to form his residence in us.  The knowledges he gives us go to expand and secure his Kingdom and provide for all that which is necessary to his home and ours.
 


"Behold therefore that in the soul where our Will reigns we find our Divine foods, our property for how much it is possible for a creature, our residence, hence we find ourselves in our house, in our center, in the midst of our properties.  Do you see therefore what it means to make our Will reign and the great good to make you know our truths?  Our every knowledge carries, each one, its distinct gift, some carry his light, some fortitude, some goodness, some wisdom, some love and so on, each one of them binds the creature in a special way to God and God to her.  Therefore know how to correspond to the so many gifts that your Jesus has made you, and you live always in our Volition.”
Vol. 29, August 3, 1931
 
 
“Therefore there is no greater evil that the creature can do, nor greater wrong that she can do to our Paternal goodness, than to not let our Will reign in her.  The same in her power would induce us to destroy all the Creation, because the creature was made that she should be our residence, and not her alone, but all created things, skies, sun, earth, everything, being works gone forth from our Supreme Heights, we hold the right to live (in) her, and with living (in) her we conserve her with beautiful decorum and always new, as in the act in which we brought her forth to the light.  Now the creature with not doing our Will puts us outside of our residence, and it happens to us as would happen to a rich Lord, that wanting to build a great and beautiful palace, when he has finished; he goes in order to live in it and they close the doors in (his) face, they throw stones at him, in a way that he is constrained to not put a foot inside, and to not be able to live in the same residence built by him, wouldn’t it merit that it be destroyed by he who has formed it?  But he doesn’t do it because he loves his work, but waits and re-awaits, who knows [that] he can conquer in love, and by herself she opens the doors to him in order to let him enter with giving him the liberty to let him live (there).  In such conditions the creature puts us with not letting our Will reign in her soul:  she closes the doors in our face and throws the stones of her faults against us.  And we with unconquered and divine patience wait, and she not wanting our Will in herself as life, with Paternal goodness we give her the effects of Him, that is the laws, the Sacraments, the Gospel, the helps of my examples and prayers to her, but for all this great good, not one can equal the great good that my Will can do as perennial life of the creature, because He is all (the) laws, Sacraments, Gospel, life together, he signifies all:  able to give everything, possesses everything, this is enough in order to be able to understand the great difference that there is between my Will as continuous life in the creature, and between his effects that he can not produce in a perennial way, but by circumstances, in time, in the Sacraments themselves.  And although the effects can do great goods, but they can never arrive to produce all the goods that the life of my Divine Will reigning and dominant in the creature can produce.  Therefore be attentive my daughter, and give him the holy liberty to do that which he wants in your soul.”
Vol. 30, May 30, 1932


I think it's about time we allow the Lord entrance into his own home again and to give him field to see the wonders he has in store for us.

Living Hosts; Complete Glory

5 And the one who was seated on the throne said, “See, I am making all things new.” Also he said, “Write this, for these words are trustworthy and true.” 6 Then he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give water as a gift from the spring of the water of life.
Revelation 21:5-6



God makes all things new while maintaining that which he has established as well.  Each step supports the other.



          “My daughter, all of my works hold hands, and this is the sign that they are my works – that one does not oppose the other; on the contrary, they are so bound among themselves, that they sustain one another. This is so true that, having to form my chosen people, from which and within which the future Messiah was to be born, from that same people I formed the priesthood, which instructed the people and prepared them for the great good of Redemption. I gave them laws, manifestations and inspirations, upon which the Sacred Scriptures were formed, called the Bible; and all were intent on the study of It. Then, with my coming upon earth, I did not destroy Sacred Scriptures; on the contrary, I supported them; and my Gospel, which I announced, opposed them in nothing; on the contrary, they sustained each other in a admirable way. And in forming the new nascent Church, I formed the new priesthood, which does not detach itself either from Sacred Scriptures or from the Gospel. All are intent upon them in order to instruct the peoples; and it can be said that anyone who did not want to draw from this salutary fount does not belong to Me, because these are the basis of my Church and the very life with which the peoples are formed.
           Now, that which I manifest on my Divine Will, and which you write, can be called ‘the Gospel of the Kingdom of the Divine Will’. In nothing does It oppose either Sacred Scriptures or the Gospel which I announced while being on earth; on the contrary, It can be called the support of one and of the other. And this is why I allow and I call priests to come – to read the Gospel, all of Heaven, of the Kingdom of my Divine Fiat, so as to say, as I said to the Apostles: ‘Preach It throughout the whole world.’ In fact, in my works I make use of the priesthood; and just as I had the priesthood before my coming in order to prepare the people, and the priesthood of my Church in order to confirm my coming and everything I did and said, so will I have the priesthood of the Kingdom of my Will. Here is the utility of the many things I have manifested to you, the many surprising truths, the promises of the so many goods which I must give to the children of the Fiat Voluntas Tua: they will be the Gospel, the basis, the inexhaustible fount from which all will draw the celestial life, the terrestrial happiness and the restoration of their creation. Oh! how happy they will feel – those who, with yearning, will drink in large gulps from these founts of my knowledges; because they contain the virtue of bringing the life of Heaven, and of banishing any unhappiness. 
Vol. 23, Jan. 18, 1928




There is a lot of debate by many people about whether or not women should be able to be priests.  It was in the writings on the Divine Will that I've discovered that this is pointless.  There is something greater than the priesthood available and Jesus is renewing everything again and is bringing about the new priesthood.  The gift of living in the Divine Will surpasses the priesthood and is open to all.




“My daughter, all other sanctities are not exempt from waste of time and from personal interest.  As for example, a soul who lives attentive to obedience in everything:  there is much waste of time; her saying and re-saying continuously, distracts her from Me, and she mistakes the virtue for Me; and if she does not have the opportunity to take all the orders, she lives restless.  Another one suffers temptations – oh! how much waste of time.  She never tires of telling all her trials, and she mistakes the virtue of suffering for Me; and many times these sanctities end up in ruin.  But the sanctity of living in my Will is exempt from personal interest, from waste of time; there is no danger that they might mistake the virtue for Me, because I Myself am the living in my Will. 
“This was the sanctity of my Humanity on earth, and therefore It did everything, and for everyone, without a shadow of interest.  Self-interest takes away the mark of divine sanctity, therefore it can never be sun; at the most, as beautiful as it is, it can be a star.  This is why I want the sanctity of living in my Will in these times so sad - this generation needs these suns, which may warm it, illuminate it, fecundate it.  The disinterest of these terrestrial angels, all for the good of others, without a shadow of their own self, will open the way in their hearts to receive my grace. 
“And then, churches are few and many will be destroyed; many times I find no priests who may consecrate Me; other times they allow unworthy souls to receive Me, and worthy souls not to receive Me; others are unable to receive Me; so, my love finds itself hindered.  This is why I want to make the sanctity of living in my Will; in them, I will have no need of priests for Me to be consecrated, nor churches, tabernacles or hosts; but they will be everything together:  priests, churches, tabernacles and hosts.  My love will be more free; anytime I want to consecrate Myself, I will be able to do it - in every moment, day and night, in whatever place they might be.  Oh! how my love will have its complete outpouring.  Ah! my daughter, the present generation deserved to be destroyed completely; and if I will allow a little something to be left of it, it is to form these suns of the sanctity of living in my Will, who, on my example, will repay Me for all that other creatures, past, present and future, owed Me.  Then will the earth give Me true glory, and my ‘Fiat Voluntas Tua on earth as it is in Heaven’ will have its completion and fulfillment.”
Vol. 12, Nov. 27, 1917





Jesus tells Luisa that his Will contains all the Sacraments and all their effects and even though she was at times being denied by certain priests the right to receive the Sacraments administered by them, in his Will she would still receive them.  Furthermore Jesus goes on to tell Luisa that with living in the Divine Will she can form hosts and consecrate them.  Yes, I did just say that.  A soul living in the Divine Will can consecrate and that is any soul, not just men.  Of course the truth is that it is Jesus living in the soul that consecrates, the soul provides the material accidents of the acts while the Divine Will consecrates them.





“My daughter, you too can form hosts and consecrate them.  Do you see the garment that covers Me in the Sacrament?  These are the accidents of the bread with which the host is formed.  The life which exists in this host is my Body, my Blood and my Divinity.  The attitude which contains this life is my Supreme Will, and this Will carries out the love, the reparation, the immolation, and all the rest that I do in the Sacrament, which never moves one point from my Volition.  There is nothing that comes from Me which is not led by my Volition.
“Here is how you too can form the host.  The host is material and totally human; you too have a material body and a human will.  This body and this will of yours - if you keep them pure, upright and far away from any shadow of sin - are the accidents, the veils, so that I may be able to consecrate Myself and live hidden within you.  But this is not enough; it would be like the host without consecration - my life is needed.  My life is composed of sanctity, of love, of wisdom, of power, etc., but the engine of all is my Will.  Therefore, after you have prepared the host, you must make your will die in this host; you must cook it well, so that it may not be born again.  Then you must let my Will permeate all your being; and my Will, which contains the whole of my life, will form the true and perfect consecration.  So, the human thought will have life no more, but only the thought of my Volition, and this consecration will create my wisdom in your mind; no more life for what is human, for weakness, for inconstancy, because my Will will form the consecration of the Divine Life, of fortitude, of firmness, and of all that I am.  So, each time you make your will, your desires, and all that you are and that you may do, flow into my Will, I will renew the consecration, and I will continue my life within you as in a living host - not a dead one, like the hosts without Me. 
“But this is not all.  In the consecrated hosts, in the pyxes, in the Tabernacles, everything is dead - mute; not a heartbeat sensibly, not a surge of love which may correspond to so much love of mine.  If it wasn’t for the fact that I wait for hearts in order to give Myself to them, I would be quite unhappy, I would remain defrauded in my love, and my sacramental life would remain without purpose.  And if I tolerate this in the Tabernacles, I would not tolerate it in living hosts.  So, life needs nourishment, and in the Sacrament I want to be nourished, and I want to be nourished with my own food – that is, the soul will make my Will, my love, my prayers, reparations and sacrifices her own; she will give them to Me as if they were her own things, and I will nourish Myself.  The soul will unite with Me, she will prick up her ears to hear what I am doing so as to do it together with Me; and as she keeps repeating my own acts, she will give Me her food, and I will be happy.  Only in these living hosts will I find the compensation for the loneliness, the starvation, and all that I suffer in the Tabernacles.”
Vol. 11, Dec. 17, 1914




The key to all this is the Divine Will.  It is the Divine Will which has ordained the Sacraments and they take their life from him, and it is the Divine Will which wants the creature to have life in him, with him and through him.  This is the completion of the work of the Eucharist.  The Divine Life which has humbled himself to serve the creature by descending in the lowly host now takes his place in the living host of the creature and elevates her to him.  And the circle completes itself from the transubstantiation of the non-living host to the transubstantiation of the living host.  The creature does nothing but say yes and allow the Divine Will to work through, with and in her and in all her acts and she becomes a living host to the real and living presence of the Divine Will. 




It happens with the soul as with the accidents of the host which, though being matter, lends itself to let itself be animated by my sacramental life, as long as those same words spoken by Me in instituting the Most Holy Sacrament are pronounced by the priest. Those were words animated by my Fiat, which contained the creative power, and this is why the matter of the host undergoes the transubstantiation of the divine life. One can pronounce as many words as one wants over the host, but if they are not those few words established by the Fiat, my life remains in Heaven and the host remains the wretched matter that it is. So it happens with the soul: she can do, say, suffer whatever she wants, but if my Divine Fiat does not run inside of them, those are always finite and wretched things. On the other hand, for one who lives in It, her words, her works, her pains, are like veils that hide the Creator, and the One who created heaven and earth makes use of these veils and makes of them works worthy of Himself, placing in them His sanctity, His creative power, His infinite love. Therefore, no one else, though he might do great things, can compare to that creature in whom my Divine Will lives, reigns and dominates.
Vol. 23, Oct. 2, 1927






Jesus wants to be nourished just as he nourishes us.  Jesus wants a two way street that as he feeds the soul he also wants to be fed.  And it is only because of this aspiration that he has tolerated the centuries of isolation in the Tabernacles and lifeless hosts of the wafers.  He wants living hosts that can respond to him.  Such a soul however, although containing Jesus himself, will not show anything on outside which one would notice.  They will be the most hidden souls whom appear to do nothing and yet they do all.  We become the host in living in the Divine Will, the living host, which hides the real and living presence of Jesus.




Now, while I was pouring out my pain with Jesus, He made Himself seen in my interior, and the sacramental veils formed as though a mirror, and Jesus was inside of it - alive and real. And my sweet Jesus told me: “My daughter, this mirror is the accidents of the bread which keep Me imprisoned within them. I form my Life in the host, but the host does not give Me anything - not one affection, not a heartbeat, not the littlest ‘I love you.’ It is as though dead for Me. I remain alone, without a shadow of requital, and therefore my love is almost impatient to go out, to shatter this glass, descending into hearts in order to find in them that requital which the host does not know how to give Me, nor can it do so. But do you know where I find my true requital? In the soul who lives in my Will. As I descend into her heart, immediately I consume the accidents of the host, because I know that more noble accidents, more dear to Me, are ready to imprison Me, so as not to let Me go out of that heart, which will give Me, not only life within itself – but life for life. I will not be alone, but with my most faithful company. We will be two hearts palpitating together, we will love united, our desires will be one. So, I remain in her, and there I live Life, alive and real, just as I do in the Most Holy Sacrament. But do you know what these accidents are, which I find in the soul who does my Will? They are her acts done in my Volition which, more than accidents, lay themselves around Me and imprison Me, but inside a noble and divine prison, not a dark one, because her acts done in my Will, more than sun, illuminate her and warm her. Oh! how happy I feel to form my real Life in her, because I feel as if I were inside my Celestial Royal Palace. Look at Me inside your heart - how happy I am, how I delight and feel the purest joys.”
Vol. 16, Nov. 5, 1923



“It seems that the souls who do my Will do nothing, while they do everything, because, being in my Will, they act in a divine manner, in a hidden and surprising way.  So, they are light that illuminates, they are winds that purify, they are fire that burns, they are miracles that make others do miracles.  Those who do miracles are channels; but in these souls resides the power.  Therefore, they are the foot of the missionary, the tongue of the preachers, the strength of the weak, the patience of the sick, the regime of the superiors, the obedience of the subjects, the tolerance of the slandered, the firmness in dangers, the heroism of the heroes, the courage of the martyrs, the sanctity in the saints, and so with all the rest.  Being in my Will, they concur with all the good that can exist both in Heaven and on earth.
“This is why I can surely say that they are my true hosts - but living hosts, not dead ones.  In fact, the accidents that form the host are not full of life, nor do they influence my life; but the soul is full of life, and by doing my Will, she influences and concurs with all that I do.  This is why these hosts consecrated by my Will are more dear to Me than the very sacramental hosts, and if I have reason to exist in the sacramental hosts, it is to form the sacramental hosts of my Will.
“My daughter, I take such delight in my Will, that in simply hearing one speak about It, I feel overjoyed and I call the whole of Heaven to make feast.  Imagine, yourself, what will become of those souls who do It: in them I find all the contentments, and to them I give all the contentments; their life is the life of the Blessed.  Two things only do they cherish, desire and yearn:  my Will and Love.  They have little to do, while indeed they do everything.  The virtues themselves remain absorbed in my Will and in Love, and so they have nothing to do with them any more, since my Will contains, possesses and absorbs everything - but in a way which is divine, immense and endless.  This is the life of the Blessed.”
Vol. 11, March 15, 1912



Jesus affirms that the soul living in the Divine Will with possessing the Divine Will they posses the source of all the Sacraments.  She can multiply these as much as she wants for as many as she wants in every moment.  She possesses the source of the Sacraments and in continuing to receive them from the Church she completes them and glorifies her God.
 




Offering of Communion. How our wills are the accidents in which Jesus is multiplied. How the soul who lives in the Divine Will contains the source of all the Sacraments.

           I was doing my thanksgiving for I had received Holy Communion, and I was thinking to myself that I wanted to offer It to all and to each inhabitant of Heaven, to each soul in Purgatory, to all the living who are and will be. And not only to them, but I would like to give my Sacramental Jesus to the starry heavens, to the flowery fields – in sum, to each created thing, in order to give Him the glory and the triumph of all His works. But while I was saying this, I thought to myself: ‘This is my usual nonsense – how can I form so many Jesuses? This is impossible.’ And my beloved Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter, just as in the sacramental host there are the little accidents of the bread, and your Jesus hides inside of them, alive and real – and as many Jesuses for as many as are the hosts - in the same way, in the soul there are the accidents of the human will, not subject to being consumed like the accidents of my Sacramental Life, and therefore more fortunate and more solid. And just as the Eucharistic Life multiplies in the hosts, so does my Divine Will multiply my Life in each act of the human will, which, more than accident, lends itself to the multiplication of my Life. As you were making your will flow within Mine and wanted to give Me to each one, so was my Will forming my Life in yours, and from Its light It released my Life, giving Me to each one, and – oh! how happy I felt that the little daughter of my Will was forming so many of my Lives in the accidents of her will, to give Me not only to animate creatures, but to all things created by Me. So, as I was multiplying my Life, I felt I was constituting Myself the King of all: King of the sun, of the sea, King of the flowers, of the stars, of the heavens – in sum, of everything. My daughter, one who lives in my Will possesses within herself the fount of the source of the Sacraments, and can multiply Me as much as she wants and in whatever way she wants.”
           Afterwards, I remained doubtful about the last sentence written here above, and my beloved Jesus added: “My daughter, the Sacraments came out of my Will like many little fountains; I issued them from It, keeping in It the source from which each of these fountains continuously receives the goods and the fruits which each of them contains. But they act according to the dispositions of those who receive them; so, because of lack of dispositions on the part of creatures, the fountains of the Sacraments do not produce the great goods they contain. Many times they pour waters, but the creatures are not washed; other times they consecrate them, impressing a divine and indelible character, but in spite of this they do not appear to be sanctified. Another fountain gives birth to the Life of your Jesus continuously; they receive this Life, but neither the effects of it nor the Life of your Jesus can be seen in them. So, each Sacrament has Its sorrow, because they do not see their fruits and the goods they contain in all creatures.
           Now, for one who lives in my Will, letting It reign as in Its own Kingdom, since my Divine Will possesses the source of the Sacrament, what is the wonder if one who lives in It possesses the source of all the Sacraments and feels within herself the nature of the Sacraments with all the effects and goods they contain? And as she receives them from the Church, she will feel that it is food which she possesses, but which she takes in order to give complete glory to those Sacraments, whose source she possesses, and to glorify that very Divine Will that instituted them, because in It alone there will be perfect glory for all Our works. This is why I so much long for the Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat – because It alone will give balance to everything; It will give to creatures all the goods It wants, and will receive the glory which they owe It.”

There is no greater gift that God can give man than the gift of living in the Divine Will and Jesus states that the miracle of containing his Divine Will within the confines of his Humanity surpassed all his other miracles.  We too are now being given the chance to have the Divine Will living and acting in each of us.  All we have to do is give our own firm "Fiat", and then we too will have our own real and living presence of Jesus born within each of us.  And I can think of no greater gift that I could ever want on this Christmas day.



           “You can see that, of all that which occurred within My Humanity the greatest miracle was containing the whole immensity of My Divine Will within it (My Humanity).  The miracles which I did may be called nothing in front of this one, and even more so since it was natural in Me to be able to give life so that they (creatures) could be resurrected - to give sight to the blind, speech to those who could not speak, and all the rest of the miraculous works I accomplished -because it was in My nature to give as many goods as I wanted.  It was certainly a miracle for those who received these goods, but for Me the greatest miracle was to constrain in Myself My Divinity, the immensity of My Will, Its interminable light, Its beauty and unreachable sanctity.  This was the prodigy of prodigies that only a God could do.  Therefore, no matter how much I can give to a creature, it will always be giving little as compared to My giving the great gift of My Will, because in It there will be seen new heavens, more resplendent suns, unheard - of things, and surprises never before seen.  Heavens and earth tremble and kneel before a soul who possesses the great gift of my Will, and with reason, because they see come forth from the soul the virtue and the vivifying and creative force which conserves them in the new life created by God.  Oh Power of My Will, if they knew You how ambitious they would be for your great Gift.  How they would give their life to have You!”

Merry Christmas everyone!

The Redemption preparation for the Kingdom

Through the mysteries manifested in the Redemption of Jesus taking on our humanity and divinely submitting himself to taking on all the evils of man in order to procure the divine remedies for mankind He opened the channels of grace to heal us of our sins so that we might reach the step of not only resigning ourselves to his Will but of embracing it, and loving it to the point of wanting to be united with him.

"Hence my Redemption, my life, my sufferings, my death, it will serve to dispose creatures to such a good, and as preparation to the great portent of the kingdom of my Will in the human generations, and if they don’t yet see the fruits, the life of Him, this says nothing, because in my Humanity there is the seed, the life of my Fiat, hence this seed possesses the virtue to form the long generation of so many other seeds in hearts, in order to regenerate in them, the revival of the life of my Will in creatures. "
Vol. 33, May 6, 1934

Creation and Redemption are manifestations from his Will.  Although to us his Redemption is manifest first it is His Will which is given priority in all his works and is the ultimate purpose to all his designs.

"Listen to me my daughter, in the Creation our primary purpose was man, but instead of creating man first, we created Heavens, sun, sea, earth, air, winds as habitation where to put this man, and making him find all that which was necessary in order to let him live, in the creation of man himself first we made the body and then infused in him the soul, more precious, more noble and that contains more value than the body; many times it is necessary to do the minor works first, in order to prepare with decency the post to our greater works.  What wonder, therefore, that in descending from Heaven in earth, in our divine mind, our primary aim was to constitute the kingdom of our Will in the midst of the human family?  Much more so that the first offense that man did to us, was really direct to our Will, hence with justice, our first aim, should be directed to consolidate the offended part of our Will and to restitute to him his regal post, and then the Redemption came, and the Redemption came in a superabundant way with such excesses of love as to make Heaven and earth astounded.  But why first?  Because it had to serve to prepare with decency, with decorum, with sumptuousness, with the outfit of my sufferings and my death itself, as kingdom, as army, as habitation and as cortege to make my Will reign.  In order to heal man there was needed my sufferings, in order to give him life there was needed my death, and yet one tear of mine, one sigh of mine, one single drop of my blood would have been enough in order to save everyone, because all that which I did was animated by my Supreme Will.  I can say that it was Him in my Humanity that raced in all my acts, in my most excruciating sufferings, in order to search (out) man and to put him in safety; how therefore can one deny the first purpose to a Volition so holy, so powerful, that embraces everything and in which there is no life, nor good without Him?"
Vol. 33, May 6, 1934

By not living in his Will God is constrained to give us only the effects of his Will which are limited by time, circumstances and our disposition.  He states below clearly that all the law, the sacraments, the Gospel and prayers are only effects that can not equal that which the Divine Will can do when the creature allows him in as perennial life of her, because these come from his Will while his Will is entire and complete by itself.

“Therefore there is no greater evil that the creature can do, nor greater wrong that she can do to our Paternal goodness, than to not let our Will reign in her.  The same in her power would induce us to destroy all the Creation, because the creature was made that she should be our residence, and not her alone, but all created things, skies, sun, earth, everything, being works gone forth from our Supreme Heights, we hold the right to live (in) her, and with living (in) her we conserve her with beautiful decorum and always new, as in the act in which we brought her forth to the light.  Now the creature with not doing our Will puts us outside of our residence, and it happens to us as would happen to a rich Lord, that wanting to build a great and beautiful palace, when he has finished; he goes in order to live in it and they close the doors in (his) face, they throw stones at him, in a way that he is constrained to not put a foot inside, and to not be able to live in the same residence built by him, wouldn’t it merit that it be destroyed by he who has formed it?  But he doesn’t do it because he loves his work, but waits and re-awaits, who knows [that] he can conquer in love, and by herself she opens the doors to him in order to let him enter with giving him the liberty to let him live (there).  In such conditions the creature puts us with not letting our Will reign in her soul:  she closes the doors in our face and throws the stones of her faults against us.  And we with unconquered and divine patience wait, and she not wanting our Will in herself as life, with Paternal goodness we give her the effects of Him, that is the laws, the Sacraments, the Gospel, the helps of my examples and prayers to her, but for all this great good, not one can equal the great good that my Will can do as perennial life of the creature, because He is all (the) laws, Sacraments, Gospel, life together, he signifies all:  able to give everything, possesses everything, this is enough in order to be able to understand the great difference that there is between my Will as continuous life in the creature, and between his effects that he can not produce in a perennial way, but by circumstances, in time, in the Sacraments themselves.  And although the effects can do great goods, but they can never arrive to produce all the goods that the life of my Divine Will reigning and dominant in the creature can produce.  Therefore be attentive my daughter, and give him the holy liberty to do that which he wants in your soul.”
Vol 30, May 30, 1932

And all we have to do is say, "Yes."
