Promise, in Eden, of the future Redeemer. Solemn promise, in the ‘Our Father’, of the Kingdom of the Divine Will. How God feels the joy of Creation being repeated.


My poor mind feels as though fixed in the Supreme Fiat, and I feel like a little girl who, since she likes the beautiful lessons of her beloved teacher, always hangs around her, asking her a thousand questions, to have the pleasure of hearing her speak and of learning new more beautiful lessons.  And while the teacher speaks, she remains there, with her mouth open, listening to her, so many are the beautiful surprises that she gives her with her lessons.  Such am I – a tiny little one, hanging around the light of the Divine Will, more than teacher; wanting to draw Its life from the beautiful lessons It gives to my little soul.  And because I am little, It delights in making me content, giving me such surprises of divine lessons, never thought of by me.

So, while I was thinking about the Kingdom of the Divine Will, and Its reigning upon earth seemed as though difficult to me, my beloved Jesus, coming out from within my interior, told me:  “My daughter, as Adam sinned, God made him the promise of the future Redeemer.  Centuries passed, but the promise did not fail, and the generations had the good of Redemption.  Now, as I came from Heaven and formed the Kingdom of Redemption, before departing for Heaven, I made another promise, more solemn, of the Kingdom of my Will; and this was in the ‘Our Father’.  And so as to give it more value, and to obtain It more quickly, I made this formal promise in the solemnity of my prayer, praying the Father to let His Kingdom come, which is the Divine Will on earth as It is in Heaven.  I placed My very Self at the head of this prayer, knowing that such was His Will, and that, prayed by Me, He would deny Me nothing; more so, since I prayed with His very Will, and I asked for something which was wanted by my Father Himself.  And after I had formed this prayer before my Celestial Father, certain that the Kingdom of my Divine Will upon earth would be granted to Me, I taught it to my Apostles, that they might teach it to the whole world, so that one might be the cry of all:  ‘Your Will be done, on earth as It is in Heaven.’  A promise more sure and solemn I could not make.  Centuries are like one single point for Us, but Our words are accomplished acts and facts.  My very praying to the Celestial Father:  ‘Let It come – let your Kingdom come; your Will be done on earth as It is in Heaven’, meant that with my coming upon earth the Kingdom of my Will was not established in the midst of creatures; otherwise I would have said:  ‘My Father, let Our Kingdom, which I have already established on earth, be confirmed, and let Our Will dominate and reign.’  Instead, I said:  ‘Let It come.’  This meant that It must come, and creatures must await It with that certainty with which they awaited the future Redeemer, because there is my Divine Will, bound and committed, in those words of the ‘Our Father’; and when It binds Itself, whatever It promises is more than certain.  More so, since everything was prepared by Me; nothing else was needed but the manifestation of my Kingdom - and this I am doing.  Do you think that my giving you so many truths about my Fiat is only to give you simple news?  No, no; it is because I want everyone to know that Its Kingdom is near, and to know Its beautiful prerogatives, so that all may love – may yearn to enter, to live in a Kingdom so holy, full of happiness and of all goods.  Therefore, that which seems difficult to you is easy for the power of Our Fiat, because It knows how to remove all difficulties, and to conquer everything - the way It wants, and when It wants.”

Then, I was doing my round in the Eternal Fiat according to my usual way; and going around throughout the whole Creation, I was bringing all works before the Divinity, to give to It the most beautiful homage and the great glory of all Their works.  But while I was doing this, I thought to myself:  ‘But what is the glory I give to my Creator by bringing Him all His works?’  And Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:  “My daughter, by doing so, you bring to Us the joy of Our accomplished works.  In fact, before We created the Creation, they were inside of Us, as though in deposit in Our Will, and We did not have the glory, the joy of seeing Our works outside of Ourselves, formed and accomplished outside of Us.  So, Our works were formed when the Creation was created; and if one goes around in their midst, looks at them, and wanting to gather them all together around Us, says to Us:  ‘How beautiful are your works - perfect and holy; their harmony, their perfect order tell who You are, and narrate your glory’, We feel the joy, the glory being repeated, as if We were again extending the heavens, forming the sun and all Our works.  So, the Creation remains always in act and as though speaking by means of the little daughter of Our Will.  This can happen to you also:  if you had decided in your will to make many beautiful works, you do not enjoy; but your joy begins when you see the works accomplished; and if someone, loving you, often brought them around you to say to you:  ‘See how beautiful are your works’, would you not feel glorious, and the joy of when you accomplished them being repeated?  Such am I – the repetitions form my most beautiful surprises.”
