Divine Will for every day of the year - January 29, 1928 Volume 23

I was reading in the 20th volume what regarded the Divine Will, and I felt such impression, as if I would see a Divine Life, alive and palpitating, flowing in the written words. I could feel the strength of the Light, the Life of the Warmth of Heaven, the virtue, as though operating, of the Divine Fiat in what I was reading, and I thanked my Jesus from the heart, who, with so much Love, had deigned to make me write.

But while I was doing this, my Beloved Jesus, as though unable to contain, Himself, the throbs of His Heart, came out from within my interior, and throwing His arms around my neck, He pressed me tightly to His Heart to let me feel His ardent heartbeats, and told me: “My daughter, you thank Me for I have made you write what regards My Will—Doctrine all of Heaven, and that has the virtue of communicating the Life of It, palpitating and all celestial, to those who will read these Writings.

“My Will is palpitating in the midst of creatures, but It lives suffocated by the human will. These Writings will make Its heartbeat felt so strongly, that It will suffocate the human will and will take Its first place of Life that is due to It, because My Will is the heartbeat and the Life of all Creation. Therefore, the value of these Writings is immense; they contain the value of a Divine Will. If they were written in gold, they would not surpass the great value that they contain in themselves.

“These Writings are suns impressed with characters of most refulgent Light in the walls of the Celestial Fatherland, and they form the most beautiful ornament for those walls of the Eternal City, in which all the Blessed remain enraptured and amazed in reading the characters of the Supreme Will. Therefore, greater grace I could not give in these times, than transmitting, through you, the characters of the Celestial Fatherland to creatures, that will bring the Life of Heaven into their midst.

“So, just as you thank Me, I thank you, for being willing to receive My lessons and to make the sacrifice of writing under My dictation. It was My Will that, while you were writing, made flow the living virtue of Its ardent, eternal and vivifying heartbeat, that It impressed in your characters. This is why, in rereading them, you feel the renewing of it, all celestial, that is impressed in them. Oh! how hard it will be for those who will read these Writings, not to feel the palpitating Life of My Will, and not to be stirred, by the virtue of Its vivifying heartbeat, from the lethargy they are in.

“These Writings on My Supreme Fiat, by the strength of Its Light, will eclipse the human will; they will be balm to the human wounds, they will be opium to all that is earth; passions will feel themselves die, and from their death will rise again the Life of Heaven in the midst of creatures. They will be the true celestial army that, while laying siege to the human will and to all the evils produced by it, will make peace, the lost happiness, the Life of My Will, rise again in the midst of creatures. The siege that they will lay will cause no harm to anyone, because My Will is to lay siege to the human will so that it may no longer tyrannize the poor creatures, but may leave them free in the Kingdom of My Will.

“This is why I have insisted, and I insist so much in making you write, I have kept you on the cross, I have sacrificed you—it was necessary; it was about the most important thing, it was the echo of Heaven, the Life of up there that I want to form upon earth. And this is the reason for My continuous refrain: ‘Be attentive, omit nothing, and may your flight in My Will be continuous.’”

Divine Will for every day of the year - January 18, 1922 Volume 18

I was praying, and my sweet Jesus drew me to Himself, and transforming me completely into Himself, told me: "My daughter, let us pray together, so as to hold Heaven in our power, and prevent the earth from falling even more into the current of evil." So we prayed together, and then He added: "While on earth, My Humanity saw Itself as very narrow before the Divinity; and since It was inseparable from the Divinity, I did nothing but enter into the Immensity of the Eternal Will, and open many founts for the good of creatures. In fact, since they were being opened by a Man-God, I could give the human family the right to approach these founts, and take whatever they wanted. Therefore, I formed the fount of Love, that of Prayer, the other of Reparation, the fount of Forgiveness, that of My Blood, another of Glory.

“Now, do you want to know who shakes these founts so as to make them rise and overflow, in such a way that all the earth may be inundated? The soul who enters into My Will. As she enters, if she wants to love, she approaches the fount of Love, and by loving, or even if by placing the intention to love, she shakes the fount. Being shaken, the waters grow, overflow and flood the whole earth; and sometimes this shaking is so intense, that the waves rise up so high as to touch Heaven and flood the Celestial Fatherland. If she wants to pray, repair, impetrate forgiveness for sinners, or give Me glory, she shakes the founts of Prayer, of Reparation, of Forgiveness; and they rise, overflow and flood everyone. How many goods did My Humanity not impetrate for man? I left the doors open, so that they might enter with all ease — but how few are those who enter."

[Jesus speaking]

“… Now, the work of the creature in Our Will enters into Our works, and Our Will becomes nourishment, preservation and Act of the very act of the creature. These acts done in Our Will by the creature, place themselves around Us, and transfused in all created things, sing Our perpetual Glory.

“How different is Our Work, and the Love with which We operate, from that of the creature! In Us, Our Love for the work We do is so great that We do not allow it to go outside of Ourselves, that it may lose nothing of the Beauty with which it was made. On the other hand, if the creature of reason does a good work, or even one virtuous act, she is unable to keep it with herself. Rather, many times she doesn’t know what happened to her work, whether it got dirty, or whether they reduced it to a rag — sign of her little love for her own works. And since the creature, because of sin, went out from her foundation – that is, the prime Divine Will from Which she took origin – she lost true love toward God, toward herself, and toward her works.

“I wanted man to be in My Will by his own will, not by force, because I Loved him more than all other created things; and I wanted him to be like a king in the midst of My works. But man, ungrateful, wanted to go out from his origin; therefore, he was transformed and lost his freshness and beauty, and was subject to alterations and continuous changes. And as much as I call him to return into his origin, he plays deaf, pretending not to hear Me. But My Love is such that I keep waiting for him, and I continue to call him."

This morning, while I was in my usual state, I saw an endless light before me, and I comprehended that in that light dwelled the Most Holy Trinity. I also saw the Queen Mama before that light; She was all absorbed in the Most Holy Trinity, and She absorbed all Three Divine Persons within Herself, in such a way as to be enriched with the three prerogatives of the Sacrosanct Trinity — which are Power, Wisdom and Charity. And just as God loves mankind as part of Himself, and as a particle that came out of Him, and He ardently desires that this part of Himself return into Himself, so does the Queen Mama, by participating in this, love mankind with passionate love.

Now, while comprehending this, I saw the confessor, and I prayed the Most Holy Virgin to intercede with the Most Holy Trinity for him. She bowed, taking my prayer to the Throne of God, and I saw that from the Divine Throne a flow of light came out, which covered the confessor completely, and I found myself inside myself.

… Afterwards, He made Himself seen as a little child, staring at me so much, as to remain as though impressed within me; and He wanted me to look at Him, but so much as to remain impressed in Him. Then, all love and tenderness, He told me: “My daughter, this is the true image of the living in My Eternal Will: the soul copies the Divine Will within herself, and the Supreme Will copies the soul, in such a way that your Creator keeps the copy of your image impressed within His womb. He holds her so dear, because He sees her exactly as He released her from her origin; she has lost nothing of her freshness and beauty. His paternal features are impressed in this copy; and this copy, in the paternal womb of God, sings for Him the praises of all Creation with all His works, and whispers continuously to His ear: ‘You made everything for me. You loved me so much, and still do, and I want to convert everything – everything into love for You.’ This copy is the portent of God in His womb; she is the memory of all His works.

“This is the copy of the soul in God, and the copy of God in the soul, and the carrying out of the Divine Life within the creature. How beautiful is the Kingdom of My Will – the nothing dissolved in the All, and the All fused in the nothing; the lowliness of the creature rising into the Divine height, and the Divine height descending into the depth of the creature. They are two beings bound together, inseparable, transfused, identified, such that it can barely be recognized that they are two lives palpitating together. All the magnificence, the sanctity, the sublimeness, the prodigies of the Kingdom of My Will, will be exactly this: the faithful copy of the soul in God, and the copy of God, whole and beautiful, in the soul. Therefore, the children of the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat will be as many images of little gods in My Kingdom.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - January 24, 1938 Volume 35

After this, I continued to think about the Prodigies of the Divine Volition, and my beloved Jesus added: “Daughter of My Will, as your Jesus said, in descending from Heaven to earth: ‘I leave and I stay;’ when He Ascended into Heaven He said: ‘I stay and I leave.’ My Word repeats upon descending as Sacrament in the creatures: ‘I leave and I remain in the tabernacles.’ In the same way, the creature who Lives in My Will can repeat My Word in all her acts. As soon as she begins her act, her Jesus is formed in that act. My Life has the virtue of Multiplying Itself to Infinity as many times as I want. Therefore, in all truth, she can say: ‘I leave and I stay. I leave for Heaven to beatify It, to reach my home and to make known to everyone my dear Jesus, Whom I enclosed in my act so that all may enjoy Him and Love Him. I stay on earth, as my life, support and defense for all my brothers and sisters.’ How Beautiful one Act in My Will!”

… At that moment, I remembered the needs that M. had told me, and I prayed Our Lord to answer him. In the meantime, I seemed to see him with a silver-colored garment; a black veil descended from his head, covering part of his eyes, and this veil seemed to communicate itself to another person who was behind him. I could not understand anything of this, and blessed Jesus told me: "The silver-colored garment that you see on him is his purity in operating, and the black veil is the ‘human’ that he mixes with it. This human that he mixes is like a veil which, covering the light of Truth that shines in his mind, sometimes makes him act with fear, or to content someone else, and not according to the Truth which My Grace makes shine in his mind."

And I: “Lord, grant him what he told me, for it is something that regards Your glory very much.” And He: "For an irresolute soul, temporizing gives time and space to the enemies to wage battle; while by not giving them time, and by showing oneself resolute and unshakeable, the doors are closed to the enemies, and one has the good of not even exposing oneself to the brawl. So, if he wants to reach his goal quickly, these are the means, and I will be with him, and he will be victorious. And then, the very ones who are most opposed to him will be the most supportive, and will admire him the most, seeing that he has undone their human views."

After going through most bitter days of privation, my poor heart was struggling between the fear of having lost Him and the hope that, who knows, I might see Him again. Oh God, what a bloody war this poor heart of mine had to bear! The pain was so great that now it would become ice-cold, now it would be squeezed as though under a press, and would drip blood. While I was in this state, I felt my sweet Jesus near me; He removed a veil from me which prevented me from seeing Him, so finally I was able to see Him. Immediately I said to Him: “Ah, Lord! You don’t love me any more!”

And He: “Yes, yes... What I recommend to you is correspondence to My grace, and in order to be faithful, you must be like the echo that resounds in an empty space: as soon as a voice is emitted, immediately, without the slightest hesitation, one can hear the echo booming after it. In the same way, as soon as you begin to receive My grace, without even waiting for Me to finish giving it, begin immediately the echo of your correspondence.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - January 21, 1907 Volume 7

Finding myself in my usual state, I was saying in my interior: “Lord, let it be that I may be all Yours and that I may be always, always with You, and that I may never separate from You. However, while I am with You, do not permit that I may be a goad that embitters You, that I may bother You, that I may displease You, but that I may be a goad that is present in You to sustain You when You are tired or oppressed, that consoles You when You are bothered by the other creatures.” While I was saying this, blessed Jesus told me: "My daughter, one who is in the continuous attitude of loving Me is always with Me, and can never be a goad that gives Me bother, but a goad that sustains Me, that relieves Me, that soothes Me. In fact, true love has this as its own: it renders the beloved content. Besides, one who always loves Me can never displease Me, because love absorbs the whole person. At the most, there might be little things, and the soul herself does not even realize that she may displease Me, but love itself takes on the commitment to purify her, so that I may always find My delights in her."

Divine Will for every day of the year - January 20, 1922 Volume 13

I was all concerned, with the addition that I saw myself as so bad that only Jesus can know the miserable state of my soul. And my sweet Jesus, all goodness, came and told me: "My daughter, why do you oppress yourself? Do you know how one’s own things are in My Will? They are like many miserable rags and tatters, which give more dishonor than honor to the soul, and remind her that she used to be a poor one, and possessed not even one garment that was whole. When I want to call a soul into My Will, that she may establish her residence in It, I act like a great lord who would want to take one of the poorest women into His palace, so that, laying down her clothes of poor, she may be clothed according to His same condition, living together with Him, and sharing in all of His goods. Now, 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 a 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 in his house which may recall 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 from 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 children. 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? …”

Divine Will for every day of the year - January 19, 1912 Volume 10

As I was in my usual state, my always lovable Jesus made Himself seen with a little rope in His hand, and with it He kept binding hearts, clasping them very tightly to Himself, in such a way as to make them lose their own feeling and make them feel the whole of Jesus. In feeling themselves so clasped, the hearts wriggled about, and as they wriggled about the knot which Jesus had made over them loosened, as they feared that it was a detriment to them no longer to feel themselves. All afflicted because of this behavior of souls, Jesus told me: "My daughter, have you seen how souls render My tendernesses of Love vain? I keep binding hearts to unite them closely with Me, to make them lose all that is human; but instead of letting Me do it, on seeing their human being broken, they lose air, they struggle, they wriggle about, and they also want to look a little bit themselves at how cold, dry or warm they are. By this looking at themselves, struggling, wriggling about, the knot I had made becomes loose, and they want to be with Me at a distance, but not clasped in such a way as no longer to feel themselves. This afflicts Me very much, and they prevent My games of Love. And do not think that these are only souls who are far away from you – rather, these are also those who are around you. You will make them comprehend well the sorrow that they give Me, and that if they do not let themselves be clasped by Me to the point of losing the feeling of themselves, I will never be able to expand My graces and My charisms with them. Have you understood?"

And I: “Yes, O Jesus, I understood! Poor ones, if they understood the secret contained in Your clasping, they would not do this – they would let You do it; even more, they themselves would make themselves smaller so as to let You tighten the knot more.” At that moment, I made myself very small; Jesus clasped me, and instead of wriggling about, I let Him squeeze me more tightly; and as He squeezed me, I felt the life of Jesus — losing my own. Oh! how happy I felt with the life of Jesus! I was able to love more, and I could reach everything that Jesus wanted.

… I was thinking to myself about the big issue concerning the writings on the Divine Will, that are in Messina, brought there by the blessed memory of venerable Father Di Francia: how myself and my other superiors absolutely want them here, while the superiors in Messina, rigorously recommended by the venerable Father before dying, want to keep them over there, for their publication when God pleases. So, we do nothing but [send] letters of fire, back and forth—them, to keep them, and us, to get them back.

And I was feeling all worried, bored and tired, and was saying to myself: “How could Good Jesus allow all this? Who knows whether He too feels disappointed?”

And He, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter, you are worried, but I am not disappointed at all; on the contrary I enjoy in seeing the interest that Priests take in these Writings that will form the Kingdom of My Will. This means that they appreciate the great good of them, and each one would want to keep such a great Treasure with himself, to be the first to communicate it to others. And while the issue of who is going to win lasts, one approaches the other in order to consult one another on what to do. And I enjoy that more of My Ministers get to know that there is this treasure so great, of making known the Kingdom of My Divine Will; and I use this to form the first Priests of My coming Kingdom of My Fiat.

“My daughter, it is a great necessity to form the first Priests; they will serve Me like the Apostles served Me to form My Church; and the ones who will occupy themselves with these Writings in order to publish them, putting them out to print them—to make them known, will be the new evangelists of the Kingdom of My Supreme Will. And just as the ones who are most mentioned in My Gospel are the four Evangelists who wrote It, to their highest honor and My Glory, so it will be for those who will occupy themselves with writing the knowledges on My Will in order to publish them. Like new evangelists, there will be greater mention of them in the Kingdom of My Will, to their highest honor and My great Glory in seeing the order of the creature, the life of Heaven on earth—the only purpose of Creation—return into My bosom.

“Therefore, in these circumstances I expand the circle, and, like a fisherman, I catch those who must serve Me for a Kingdom so holy. Therefore, let Me do, and do not be worried.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - January 17, 1921 Volume 12

I felt my poor mind immersed in the immense sea of the Divine Volition. I could see the mark of the FIAT everywhere. I saw it in the sun, and it seemed to me that the echo of the FIAT in the sun brought me Divine Love, which darted through me, wounded me and flashed through me. And I, on the wings of the FIAT of the sun, went up to the Eternal One bringing, in the name of the whole human family, the Love which darted, wounded, and flashed through the Supreme Majesty. And I said: “In Your FIAT You gave me all this Love, and only in the FIAT can I return it to You.”

I looked at the stars and I could see the FIAT in them; and in their sweet and meek glittering, this FIAT brought me pacific Love, sweet Love, hidden Love, compassionate Love in the very night of sin. And I, in the FIAT of the stars, in the name of all, brought to the Throne of the Eternal One pacific Love in order to put peace between Heaven and earth, the sweet Love of the loving souls, the hidden Love of many others, the Love of the creatures when, after sin, they come back to God. But who can say all that I understood and did in the many FIATs which were scattered over all Creation? I would be too long; so I stop here.

Then, my sweet Jesus took my hands in His own, and squeezing them tightly, told me: "My daughter, the FIAT is all full of Life — even more, It is Life Itself, and this is why all lives and all things come from within the FIAT. Creation came out from My ‘FIAT’; therefore in each created thing one can see the mark of the FIAT. Redemption came out from the ‘FIAT MIHI’ of My dear Mama, pronounced in My Volition and carrying the same Power of My Creative ‘FIAT.’ Therefore, there is nothing in Redemption which does not contain the mark of the ‘FIAT MIHI’ of My Mama. Even My very Humanity, My steps, words and works were marked by Her ‘FIAT MIHI.’ My pains, My wounds, My thorns, My Cross, My Blood, had the mark of Her ‘FIAT MIHI’, because things carry the mark of the origin from which they come. My origin in time was the ‘FIAT MIHI’ of the Immaculate Mama; therefore all of My works carry the mark of Her ‘FIAT MIHI.’ So, Her ‘FIAT MIHI’ is in each Sacramental Host; if man rises again from sin, if the newborn is baptized, if Heaven opens to receive souls, it is the ‘FIAT MIHI’ of My Mama that marks everything, follows everything, and from It everything proceeds. Oh, power of the FIAT! It rises every instant; It multiplies, and It becomes life of all goods.

Now I want to tell you why I asked for your ‘FIAT’ — your ‘yes’ in My Volition. I want the prayer which I taught — the ‘Fiat Voluntas Tua sicut in Coelo et in terra’ — this prayer of so many centuries, of so many generations — to have its fulfillment and completion. This is why I wanted another ‘yes’ in My Volition — another ‘FIAT’ containing the Creative Power. I want the ‘FIAT’ that rises every instant, and multiplies in everyone. I want, in one soul, My own ‘FIAT’ which ascends to My Throne and, by its Creative Power, brings upon earth the life of the ‘FIAT on earth as It is in Heaven’."

Surprised and annihilated in hearing this, I said: “Jesus, what are You saying? Yet, You know how bad and incapable of anything I am.” And He: "My daughter, it is my usual way to choose the most abject, unable, poor souls for My greatest works. Even My Mama had nothing extraordinary in her exterior life; no miracles — not a sign that would distinguish Her from other women. Her only distinction was perfect virtue, to which almost no one paid attention. And if to other Saints I gave the distinction of miracles, and I adorned others with My wounds, to My Mama, nothing — nothing. Yet, She was the portent of portents, the miracle of miracles, the true and perfect crucified — no one else like Her. …”

Divine Will for every day of the year - January 16, 1930 Volume 27

I was following the Divine Fiat in the work of Creation, and—oh! how beautiful, pure, majestic, ordered It seemed to me, worthy of He who had created It. It seemed to me that each created thing had its little story to tell me, that it enclosed, about that Fiat that had given it life; and as It issued them to the light of the day, they were to narrate it so as to make known what they knew of the Divine Will. And, united together, they were to narrate the long story of that Fiat that had not only created them, but, in preserving them, gave them the task to narrate Its long story, giving each created thing a lesson to narrate to creatures, to make known that Divine Will that had created them. …

Divine Will for every day of the year - January 15, 1920 Volume 12

I was pouring all of myself into the Divine Volition, to be able to substitute for everything that the creature is obliged to do toward the Supreme Majesty; and while I was doing this, I said to myself: “Where can I find enough love to be able to give my sweet Jesus love for all?” And He told me in my interior: "My daughter, in My Will you will find this Love, which can make up for the love of all, because one who enters My Will will find many springing founts; and as much as he may take, they never decrease one drop. There is the fount of Love, which impetuously spouts its waves; but as much as it spouts, it always springs forth. There is the fount of Beauty, and no matter how many beauties it releases, it never fades; on the contrary, it springs with ever new and more rare beauties. There is the fount of Wisdom, the fount of Contentments, the fount of Goodness, of Power, of Mercy, of Justice, and of all the rest of My qualities.

“They all spring up, and each one pours into the other, in such a way that Love is Beautiful, is Wise, is Powerful, etc. The fount of Beauty gives Beauty of Love, Wise and Powerful, and with such Power as to keep the whole of Heaven enraptured, without ever tiring It. These springing founts form such a Harmony, such a Contentment and an enchanting show that all the Blessed remain so sweetly enchanted that they never move, even one glance, so as not to miss even one of these Contentments. Therefore, My daughter, for one who wants to love, repair and substitute for all, there is the strict necessity to live in My Volition, from where everything springs; where things multiply as many times as needed, and remain all coined with the Divine Imprint. This Divine Imprint forms the other founts, whose waves rise and rise so much, that in pouring out, they flood everything and do good to all. Therefore, always – always in My Will. There I await you — there I want you."

… So finding myself suffering a little more then usual, I thought to myself: “O! how I would want that my sufferings would form wings for me in order to let me fly into my Celestial Fatherland, and instead of afflicting me, my little sufferings would make for me a feast.”

And I felt worried by this, and my beloved Jesus added: “My daughter, do not marvel. sufferings smile before Glory; they feel triumphant in seeing the conquests that they have acquired. sufferings confirm and establish the greater or lesser Glory in the creature, and according to the sufferings, so she feels painted the most beautiful and various tints of Beauty, and seeing themselves transformed into the rarest Beauty, they celebrate. In fact, on earth sufferings cry, at the doors of Heaven they begin their Eternal smile that does not end anymore. The sufferings on earth are bearers of humiliations, at the Eternal Doors they are bearers of Glory. On earth they make the poor creature unhappy, but with the Miraculous Secret that they possess, they labor in the most intimate fibers and in the whole human being the Eternal Kingdom in a way that every suffering takes its distinct Office: some act as chisel, some hammer, some file, some brush, some color. And then they leave the creature entrusted to them, when each suffering has completed its labor, and triumphantly they conduct her to Heaven and then they leave here when they see each suffering exchanged into distinct Joys and into Perennial Happiness—provided, however, that the creature receives them with love. And they feel and receive in every suffering the kiss, the embraces, and the strong squeezes of My Divine Will.

“Sufferings, then, possess this Miraculous Virtue, otherwise they become as if they did not have suitable instruments in order to complete their labor. But do you want to know who the suffering is? I Am the suffering, who hides inside of it in order to form somber labors for My Celestial Fatherland, and I abundantly exchange the brief residence that they have given Me on earth. I am imprisoned in the poor jail of the creature in order to continue My Life of sufferings down below. It is just that this Life of Mine receive Its Joys, Its Happiness, Its exchange of Glory in the Celestial Regions. Therefore your marvels will cease in hearing that your sufferings smile before the Victories, before the Triumphs, and before the Conquests.”

… After I wrote this, I was thinking to myself that what is written above is not necessary; more so since, continuing to be feverish, I write with difficulty, and I write just a little to make Jesus content. And my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter, in order to live in My Will, the soul must ascend; and in order to ascend in It, she must leave that which does not belong to My Will. She must leave her miserable rags, her vulgar habits, her vile foods, her miseries. Everything she must leave, in order to make use of the royal garment, of Divine habits, of precious and nourishing foods, of infinite riches – in sum, of everything that belongs to My Will. What you have written serves you for now — it serves the Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat. Then it will be the rule for those who must live in It – how they must use all of the operating acts of My Will in order to maintain themselves within the boundaries of My Kingdom. Therefore, that which to you does not seem to be necessary, is necessary for the formation of My Supreme Kingdom.”

Divine Will for every day of the year - January 12, 1932

[Jesus speaking] “…Now, blessed daughter, wanting to give the Kingdom of My Divine Will, it is necessary that you go around in Its Divine Properties, and I, leading you by the hand, make known to you Its interminable Seas, the Goods, the Prodigies, the surprising Wonders, the Joys, the Happinesses, all the things of infinite Value that It possesses, so that by knowing It you love It. And you would fall in love so much, that you would not only not know how to live without It, but would give your life in order to acquire a Kingdom so holy, peaceful, and beautiful.

“But this is not yet everything, your part is needed, your pledges, your advances and contracts. And Our Love and Goodness is so much, that It wants to give Our Will as property that It belongs to the creature, that It places at her disposition what It has done so that creatures might make use of it as equivalent pledges and contracts in order to receive a Gift so great. Now as you go around in Creation and look at the sky, and you feel happy in seeing the beautiful azure vault studded with stars, the sun shinning with light, and recognize and feel still beating the Divine Fiat that has created it for Love of creatures, and your little love springing forth from your heart loves He who has loved you so much, your love is sealed in the heights of the sky, in the light of the sun. And you give Us the sky for pledge, the stars for advance, the sun for contract, because they were created for you, and it is enough that you possess Our Will as Life, that It is already yours and can be the valid contract in order to obtain Its Kingdom.

“And the same with as you go around in all the other created things. You would recognize them and love Us, and however many times you repeat your going around, so many times you repeat the pledges, you make the contracts, and you arrange to dispose things, to give graces and helps in order to give as Kingdom the great Gift of the Fiat Voluntas Tua as in Heaven so on earth. We know that the creature does not have anything to give Us, and Our Love imposes itself to giving Our Acts as if they were hers, placing Our Works in her hands as Divine Money, so that she would have sufficient means in order to be able to contract with Our Supreme Being. But if she doesn’t have anything, she has the little love, issued from Ours in the act of creating her; therefore she has a particle of the infinite Love of God. And when the creature loves Us, she places the Infinite at attention, We feel the magnetic strength of the particle of Our Infinite Love that, hovering in her, loves Us, elevates, extends, and reaches even to Us, and wants to enter into the infinite from which she came forth.

“O! how she enraptures Us, and in the Ardor of Our Love We say: ‘Who can resist the strength of Our Infinite Love that issues forth from the creature and loves Us?’ To give heavens and earth seems to Us as little in exchange for her little love, that although little, possesses a particle of the Infinite, and this is enough for Us. O! how sweet and dear is the precious pledge of the love of the creature! …”

In hearing me, Jesus made Himself seen again, and smiling with satisfaction, added: "How beautiful it is to see My Truths in your heart as fount of Life immediately having the development and the effect for which they have communicated themselves! Therefore, correspond with Me, and as soon as I see one truth developed, I will make it an honor for Myself to make another fount of truth arise."

Divine Will for every day of the year - January 10, 1917 Volume 11

This morning my lovable Jesus told me: "My daughter, sanctity is formed of little things; so, one who despises the little things cannot be holy. It would be like someone who despises the little grains of wheat which, as many of them are united together, form the mass of the wheat; and by neglecting to unite them, he would cause the necessary and daily nourishment for the human life to be lacking. In the same way, one who neglected to unite many little acts together, would cause the nourishment of sanctity to be lacking; and just as one cannot live without food, in the same way, without the food of the little acts, the true shape of sanctity, and the mass sufficient to form sanctity, would be lacking."
