Divine Will for every day of the year - November 16, 1926 Volume 20

My usual state of abandonment in the Supreme Fiat continues, but at the same time I call He who forms all my happiness, my life, my all.  

And Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:  “My daughter, the more you abandon yourself in the Supreme Volition, the more you advance along Its Ways, the more Knowledges you acquire, and the more you take possession of the goods that are in the Divine Will; because in It there is always something to know and to take.  Being the primary Inheritance given by God to the creature and possessing the Eternal Goods, My Will has the task to always give to one who lives in this Inheritance.  And only when It finds the creature within the boundaries of Its Volition—then is It content and begins the activity of Its Office; and putting Itself in feast, It gives new things to Its heiress.  So, the soul who lives in It is the feast of My Will.  

“On the contrary, those who live outside of It are Its sorrow, because they put It in the inability to give, to exercise Its office and to fulfill Its task.  More so, since each act of the human will is a veil that the soul puts before her sight, that prevents her from seeing with clarity My Will and the goods contained in It.  And since most of the creatures live continuously of their own will, they form so many veils as to become almost blind to knowing and seeing My Will, their choicest Inheritance, that was to render them happy in time and eternity.  Oh! if creatures could comprehend the great evil of the human will and the great good of Mine—they would abhor their wills so much, as to lay down their lives in order to do Mine.

“The human will renders man a slave; it causes him to be in need of everything.  He feels strength and light missing in him continuously; his existence is always in danger, and whatever he obtains is by dint of prayers, and with difficulty.  So, the man who lives of his will is the true beggar.  On the other hand, one who lives in Mine has no need of anything; he has everything at his disposal.  My Will gives him the dominion of himself, and therefore he is the owner of Strength, of Light—and not of human strength and light, but of Divine.
