… After this, I was saying to my highest and only Good: “My Love, I unite my intelligence to yours, so that my thoughts may have life in Yours; and diffusing in Your Will, they may flow over each thought of creature. And rising together before our Celestial Father, we will bring Him the homages, the subjection, the love of each thought of creature, and we will impetrate that all created intelligences may be reordered and harmonized with their Creator.” And the same with the gazes of Jesus, with His words, with His works, with His steps, and even with His heartbeat. I felt all transformed in Jesus, in such I way that I found myself, as though in act, in everything that my Jesus had done, and was doing to restore the glory of the Father, and in the good He had impetrated for creatures. His work was one with mine – one the love, one the Will. And my sweet Jesus added: “My daughter, how beautiful is the prayer, the love, the work of the creature in My Will! Her acts are filled with the whole of the Divine Fullness. Their fullness is such that they embrace everything and everyone – even God Himself. See, for all eternity your thoughts will be seen in Mine, your eyes, your words in Mine, your works and steps in Mine, your heartbeat palpitating in Mine, because one is the Will that gives us life, one the love that moves us, that pushes us, and that binds us in an inseparable way. …”

While praying, I was thinking about that moment in which Jesus leaves His Most Holy Mother to go and suffer His Passion. I said to myself: ‘How is it possible that Jesus could separate Himself from His dear Mama, and She from Jesus?’ Blessed Jesus told me: "My daughter, surely there could not be separation between Me and My sweet Mama. The separation was only apparent. She and I were fused together, and the fusion was so great that I remained with Her, while She came with Me. One can say that there was a sort of bilocation. This happens also to the souls when they are truly united with Me. If, while praying, they let prayer enter into their souls as life, a sort of fusion and bilocation occurs: I bring them with Me, wherever I am, and I remain with them.
“My daughter, you cannot comprehend well what my beloved Mama was for Me. Coming upon earth, I could not be without Heaven, so my Heaven was my Mama. Electricity would flow between Us, such that My Mother had not a thought, which She did not draw from my mind. This drawing from Me of word, will, desire, action, step — in sum, of everything — formed the sun, the stars, the moon in this Heaven, together with all the possible delights that a creature can give Me, and that she herself can enjoy. Oh, how I delighted in this Heaven! Oh, how I felt relieved and repaid for everything! Even the kisses that My Mama gave Me enclosed the kiss of all humanity, returning to Me the kiss of all creatures.
“I felt My sweet Mama everywhere. I felt Her in My breath. If it was labored, She would release it. I felt Her in My Heart. If It was embittered, She would sweeten It. I felt Her in My step. If it was tired, She would give Me strength and rest... Who can tell you how much I felt Her in My Passion? I felt Her at every scourging, at every thorn, at every wound, at every drop of My Blood — everywhere, fulfilling Her office of true Mother. Ah, if souls reciprocated Me, if they drew everything from Me — how many Heavens and Mothers would I have on earth!"

After this, I continued my acts in the Divine Will, and my sweet Jesus added: “My daughter, one who lives in My Will has within herself this Divine Will dominating and reigning. The soul is the possessor of It, she holds It in her power; and while she possesses the Divine Will, holding Its Strength, Its Sanctity, Its Light, Its Goods in her power, the Divine Will possesses the soul; and by holding her in Its Power, human weaknesses, passions, miseries and the human will are kept under the unshakeable Power and the Sanctity of the Supreme Will—and before this Power, they feel themselves lose life.
“So, weakness feels conquered by the irresistible Strength of the Divine Fiat; darkness feels conquered by Light; miseries by Its infinite Riches, passions by Its Virtues, the human will by the Divine. What difference between one who Lives in My Will, and one who only does My Will. The first one possesses It and has It at her disposal; the second is submitted It, and receives It according to her dispositions—and between possessing It and receiving It there is as much distance as between Heaven and earth, there is as much distance as between one who possesses immense riches and one who receives, day by day, what is of absolute necessity. Therefore, one who does My Will and does not live in It, is forced to feel weakness, passions, and all the rags and miseries that are the provision of the human will.
“Such was the state of Adam before he withdrew from the Divine Will: It was given to him by His Creator as the greatest Gift, because It contained all Goods as One. He possessed It, dominated It, and was ruler of this Divine Will, because God Himself had given him the right to master It. Therefore, he was master of the Strength, of the Light, of the Sanctity, of the Happiness of this Eternal Fiat. But when he withdrew from It, he lost possession and dominion, and reduced himself to receiving the effects of My Will, according to his dispositions, rather than possessing them as his own; and one who finds himself in the condition of receiving is always poor—he is never rich, because a rich person possesses, does not receive, and is in the condition of being able to give part of his goods to others.”
Divine Will for every day of the year - May 7, 1899 Volume 2
While I was doing my meditation during the day, Jesus kept making Himself seen near me, and told me: "My Person is surrounded by all the works that souls do, as by a garment; and the more purity of intention and intensity of love they have, the more splendor they give Me, and I will give them more glory; so much so, that on the Day of Judgment I will show them to the whole world, to let the whole world know how My children have honored Me, and how I honor them."
Assuming a more afflicted air, He added: "My daughter, what will happen to so many works, even good, done without purity of intention, out of habit and self-interest? What shame will not fall upon them on the Day of Judgment, in seeing so many works, good in themselves, but made rotten by their intention, such that, their very actions, instead of rendering honor to them, as they would to many others, will give them shame? In fact, I do not look at the greatness of the works, but at the intention with which they are done. Here is all My attention."
Jesus kept silent for a little while, and I kept thinking about the words He had spoken to me while I was meditating within my mind, especially on the purity of intention, and on the fact that, when creatures do good, they must disappear, making the creature one with the Lord Himself, as if creatures did not exist.
Then Jesus continued, saying to me: "Yet, it is so. See, My Heart is so very large, but the door is very narrow. No one can fill the void of this Heart but souls who are detached, naked and simple. In fact, as you see, since the door is small, any hindrance, even the slightest – that is, a shadow of attachment, an intention which is not upright, a work done without the purpose of pleasing Me – prevents them from entering to delight in My Heart. Much love of neighbor enters My Heart, but it must be so united to Mine as to form one single love, in such a way that one cannot be distinguished from the other. But as for the other love of neighbor which is not transformed into My Love – I do not look at it as something that belongs to Me."

… So I, in hearing this, not only remained marveling, but I wanted to make many difficulties. And passing to the Acts of the Redemption, I found myself immersed in His sufferings. And my always Lovable Jesus, perhaps to convince me, made Himself seen in my interior in the Act of suffering the Sorrowful Crucifixion. I took part of His sufferings, and I died together with Him; His Divine Blood flowed, His Wounds were open.
And He, with a tender and moving accent, as to feel my heart burst, told me: “I am within you, I am yours, I am at your disposition. My Wounds, My Blood, all My Sufferings are yours, you can do with Me what you want, rather, do it as magnanimous, as brave, as lover, as My true imitator. Take My Blood in order to give it to whomever you want. Take My Wounds in order to heal the wounds of sinners. Take My Life in order to give the Life of Grace, of Sanctity, of Love, of Divine Will, to all souls. Take My Death in order to make many souls dead in sin rise again. I give you all the freedom; do it, know how to be My daughter. I have given Myself and that is enough.
“You, think of making everything redound to My Glory, and of how to make Me be Loved. My Will will give you the flight in order to make you bring My Blood, My Wounds, My Kisses, My Paternal Tendernesses, to My children and to your brothers. Therefore, do not marvel, this is truly the Divine Operation, to keep Its Works in the act of repeating them continuously in order to give them so as to make of them a Gift to the creatures. Each one can say: ‘Everything is mine, even God Himself is mine.’ And O! how We enjoy in seeing them gifted with Our Works, Possessors of their Creator.
“They are the Excesses of Our Love, that in order to be Loved We want to make touched how much We Love them and the Gifts that We want to give them. Then, for one who Lives in Our Volition, if We do not make a Gift of everything to them, We feel as if We would defraud the creature—and this We do not know how to do. Therefore, be attentive, let your soul be embalmed by Our Divine Peace, because We do not know what disturbance is, and all things will bring you the Smile, the Sweetness, the Love of your Creator.”
Divine Will for every day of the year - April 5, 1923 Volume 15
Finding myself in my usual state, I felt drawn outside of myself, but I could not see the azure heavens nor the sun of our horizon, but a different heaven, all of gold, studded with stars of various colors, more refulgent than sun. I felt drawn toward up high, and as this heaven opened before me, I found myself in front of a most pure light. And before this light, prostrating myself, I called all human intelligences into my intelligence — from the moment in which Adam began to break the union of his intelligence with that of His Creator by withdrawing from the Divine Will, up to the last man who will exist upon earth — and I tried to give to my God all the honor, the glory, the submission, etc., of all created intelligences. And I did the same for all my other senses, calling all those of the other creatures into mine. All this, always in His lovable Will, in which everything can be found, from which nothing can escape, even things that may not exist at the present moment, and in which everything can be done.
While I was doing this, a voice came out from within the immensity of that light, saying: “As many times as the soul enters into the Divine Will in order to pray, work, love, etc., so many ways does she open between Creator and creatures. And in seeing that the creature is making her way to go to It, the Divinity opens Its ways in order to meet Its creature. In this encounter she copies the virtues of her Creator, absorbs ever new Divine Life into herself, penetrates more into the Eternal Secrets of the Supreme Volition, and everything she does is no longer human in her, but Divine. This Divine Operating forms a Golden Heaven within her, on which the Divinity strolls, delighting in finding Its own operating in the creature, awaiting the creature in order to receive her Divine acts, and therefore open more ways for her in Its Divinity. And It keeps repeating with Great Love: ‘Behold - here is how, in My Will, the creature comes closer to My likeness, she accomplishes My designs, she fulfills the purpose of Creation.’ And while hearing this, I found myself inside myself.
Divine Will for every day of the year - April 4, 1925 Volume 17
[Jesus speaking] “…The mission of my Will was the purpose of the creation of man. My Divinity did not depart from Heaven, from Its throne; My Will, instead, not only departed, but descended into all created things and formed Its Life in them. However, while all things recognized Me, and I dwell in them with majesty and decorum, man alone drove Me away. But I want to conquer him and win him; and this is why My mission is not finished. So I called you, entrusting to you My own mission, that you may place the one who drove Me away on the lap of My Will, and everything may return to Me, in My Will.
“Therefore, do not be surprised at the great and marvelous things I may tell you for the sake of this mission, or at the many graces I may give you; because this is not about making a saint, but about saving the generations. This is about rescuing a Divine Will, for which everything must return to the beginning, to the origin from which everything came, so that the purpose of My Will may have its complete fulfillment.’"
Divine Will for every day of the year - May 3, 1916 Volume 11
While I was praying, my adorable Jesus placed Himself close to me, and I could hear that He too was praying. So I began to listen to Him. Jesus told me: "My daughter, pray, but pray as I pray. Pour yourself entirely into My Will, and you will find God and all the creatures in It. You will give them to God as if they were one single creature, because the Divine Volition is the Owner of all; then you will place at the feet of the Divinity the good acts in order to give honor to It, and the bad ones in order to repair for them through the Sanctity, Power and Immensity of the Divine Will, from which nothing can escape.
“This was the life of My Humanity upon earth. As Holy as It was, I still needed this Divine Volition in order to give complete satisfaction to the Father, and to redeem the human generations. In fact, only in this Divine Volition could I find all generations, past, present and future, and all their thoughts, words, acts, etc., as though in act. In this Holy Will, I took all the thoughts into My Mind — nothing could escape Me — and for each one of them in particular I placed Myself before the Supreme Majesty and I repaired them. In this same Will, I descended into the mind of each creature, giving them the good which I had pleaded for their intelligences. In My glances I took the eyes of all creatures; their words in My voice; their movements in My movements; their works in My hands; their steps in My feet; their affections and desires in My Heart; and making them My own, in the Divine Will My Humanity satisfied the Father, and I saved the poor creatures. And the Divine Father remained satisfied. He could not reject Me, He Himself being the Holy Will. Would He perhaps reject Himself? Certainly not. More so, since in these acts He found perfect Sanctity, unreachable and enrapturing Beauty, highest Love, immense and eternal acts, invincible Power... This was the whole Life of My Humanity upon earth, which continues in Heaven and in the Most Blessed Sacrament.
“Now, why can’t you also do this? For one who loves Me, united with Me, everything is possible. In My Will, pray and bring before the Divine Majesty the thoughts of all within your thoughts; the glances of all in your eyes; in your words, movements, affections and desires, those of your brothers, in order to repair them and plead Light, Grace and Love for them. In My Will you will find yourself in Me and in all, you will live My Life, and will pray with Me. The Divine Father will be happy, and the whole of Heaven will say: ‘Who is calling us from earth? Who is the one who wants to compress this Holy Will within herself, enclosing all of us together?’ And how much good the earth can obtain, making Heaven descend upon earth!"
Divine Will for every day of the year - May 2, 1923 Volume 15
I felt my poor mind as though dissolved in the immensity of the Eternal Volition, and my sweet Jesus, returning to speak about the Most Holy Will of God, told me: “My daughter, oh! how well your acts done in My Will harmonize. They harmonize with Mine, with those of My beloved Mama, and one disappears within the other, forming one single act. It seems that Heaven is on earth, and the earth is in Heaven. And the echo of one in three and of three in one, of the Sacrosanct Trinity – oh! how sweet it sounds to Our Hearing, how it enraptures Us, but so much as to capture Our Will from Heaven to earth. And when My ‘Fiat Voluntas Tua’ has its fulfillment ‘on earth as it is in Heaven,’ then will the complete fulfillment of the second part of the Our Father occur — that is, ‘Give us this day our daily bread.’ I said: ‘Our Father, in the name of all, I ask You for three kinds of bread every day: the Bread of Your Will, or rather, more than bread, because if bread is necessary two or three times a day, this one is necessary at each moment and in all circumstances. Even more, it must be not only bread, but like balsamic air that brings Life — the circulation of the Divine Life in the creature. Father, if this Bread of Your Will is not given, I will never be able to receive all the fruits of My Sacramental Life, which is the second Bread we ask of You every day. Oh! how My Sacramental Life feels discomforted, because the bread of Your Will does not nourish them; on the contrary, it finds the corrupted bread of the human will. Oh! how disgusting it is to Me! How I shun it! And even though I go to them, I cannot give them the fruits, the goods, the effects, the sanctity, because I do not find Our Bread in them. And if I give something, it is in small proportion, according to their dispositions, but not all the goods which I contain; and My Sacramental Life is patiently waiting for man to take the Bread of the Supreme Will, in order to be able to give all the good of My Sacramental Life. See then, how the Sacrament of the Eucharist — and not only that one, but all the Sacraments, left to My Church and instituted by Me — will give all the fruits which they contain and complete fulfillment, when Our Bread, the Will of God, is done on earth as it is in Heaven.
“Then I asked for the third bread — the material one. How could I say: ‘Give us this day our bread’? I could do so in view of the fact that, as man would do Our Will, what was Ours would be his, and so the Father would no longer have to give the Bread of His Will, the Bread of My Sacramental Life and the daily bread of natural life, to illegitimate, usurping, evil children, but to legitimate and good children, who would share in the goods of their Father. This is why I said: ‘Give us our bread.’ Then will they eat the blessed bread; everything will smile around them, and Heaven and earth will carry the mark of the harmony of their Creator. …”

“… To you, Firstborn Daughter of my Divine Will [Luisa], it is given to make known the qualities, the value, the good It contains, and Its eternal sorrow of living unknown — hidden, in the midst of the human generations; even more, despised and offended by the evil ones, and placed by the good ones at the level of the other virtues, as if It were a little light which is lit by men — as virtues are in comparison with My Will — and not the Eternal Sun that My Will is.
“The mission of My Will is the greatest that can exist: there is no good which does not descend from It; there is no glory which does not come from It. Everything is centered in It: Our interior Works and those which We have delivered; the Creation of the angels, of the world, of men; all virtues, all merits, all predestinations, all goods, all the glory of the chosen ones, all the mysteries of the Infinite Love, which are still unknown to man; and the past, the present, the future – all in One Act and in act, and in One single point.
“Therefore, be attentive, and do not want to waste time with doubts or uncertainties. Everything I told you for this mission was necessary — not for you, but for the honor, the glory, the knowledge and the Sanctity of My Will and of Its Dominion in the creatures. And since My Will is One, one was to be the creature to whom I had to entrust It, and through whom It would make Its rays blaze, to do good to all."
Divine Will for every day of the year - April 30, 1932 Volume 30
“…Therefore Living in My Will is not the property of the creature, nor is It in her power, but It is a Gift; and I make It when I want, to whom I want, and in the times that I want. It is Gift of Heaven made by Our Great Magnanimity, and by Our Inextinguishable Love. Now with this Gift the human family will feel itself so bound with its Creator, that it will not feel far away from Him anymore, but so near, as if it would be of His same family, and would Live together in His same Royal Palace. With this Gift it will feel so rich, that it will not feel the miseries, the weaknesses, the tumultuous passions anymore, but everything will be Strength, Peace, Abundance of Grace. And recognizing the Gift, it will say: ‘Nothing is lacking to me in the House of my Celestial Father, I have everything at my disposition, always in virtue of the Gift that I have received.’
“We always give the Gifts as effect of Our Great Love and Our Greatest Magnanimity. If this were not so, or We wanted to care if the creature merited It or not, if he had made some sacrifices, then It would not have been a gift anymore, but payment, and Our Gift would be rendered as right and slave of the creature, while We, and Our Gifts, are not slaves of anyone. In fact, man did not yet exist, and before he was, We already Created the sky, the sun, the wind, the sea, the flowered earth, and all the rest, in order to make a Gift of it to man. What had he done in order to merit Gifts so Great and Perennial? Nothing. And in the act of Creating him, We gave him the Great Gift that was superior to all the others: Our Omnipotent Fiat. And although he rejected It, still We did not forsake giving It anymore, no, but We kept It reserved in order to give It to his children, the same Gift that was rejected by their father. This Gift was given in the excess of Our Love that is so much, that it doesn’t know how to make, nor care about, the accounts, while the payment that it gives, if the creature does good works and sacrifices himself, it gives with just measure and according to what he merits. Not so with the Gift. Therefore, for one who will be able to doubt, it means that he does not understand about Our Divine Being, nor about Our Liberality, nor where Our Love can reach. Nevertheless, We want the correspondence of the creature, his gratitude and his little love.”
Divine Will for every day of the year - April 29, 1933 Volume 32
… So I continued to think about the Great Good that the Divine Will brings to the creature, and my Sovereign Jesus added: “My blessed daughter, you must know that so much is Our Love and Ardent Desire to have the creature together with Us, that no sooner is she created than We assign her the Royal Place in Our Divine Will, such that each creature has her place of honor in Our Divine Royal Palace. Therefore her beginning, her first act of life, as much in eternity as in time, is in Our Fiat. She was not yet in the world, and We Loved her. And cherishing her, not only did We give her the place, but We placed Our Love, Our Sanctity, Our Power, Light and Beauty as her cortege. She is the Noble Princess who descends from the heights of the Heavens in order to pass through the exile. But Our Volition does not leave her, It descends together with her, It presses Itself around her, It passes through the exile together with her, in every act that she does, pain, or joy, or encounter, It places Its Prime Divine Act there so that she maintains her Nobility and her state of Princess. And when It has filled her with all Goods, so much that she has no more room for where to place other goods, she rises again to Heaven, into the heights of the spheres, and as Triumpher she is pointed out to all the Celestial Court. This is what My Divine Will wants to do and knows how to do for the creature.
“But to Our Sorrow We see that as she descends into the exile, she does not think abut her Royal Place anymore, nor about the Nobility of her Origin, and she would want to slip away from Our Will, which more than a tender mother carries her in Her Arms. And making use of the doors of the senses that We have given her, she descends into the baseness of her human will. These doors We had given her to Rise Again to Us so that she could make her little escapes from the exile into the bosom of her Creator. Instead she makes use of them to make her little escapes into miseries, into weaknesses, into passions, such that descending from her Nobility, she recognizes that she is no longer the Princess of Heaven, but the servant of the earth.
“Yet despite this, We do not close Our Doors, that are Our Love, Our Paternal Goodness, Our Compassionate Mercy, the Expectations that We have. And no sooner do We see that she closes her doors in order to come into Our Will, than We go to meet her, We open wide Our Doors to her. And seeing her as an uncultivated beauty, with her Princess garments torn, dirty, We do not make her one rebuke, but with all Paternal Compassion We tell her: ‘Where have you been? Poor daughter, how you have reduced yourself; have you seen how much evil you have done by living in the baseness of your human will, not united with Ours? You have walked without guide, without light, without food, without defense. Therefore do not do it anymore, so that amending yourself you Redo the Good lost.’
“We know that without Our Divine Will the creature can not do any good, it is as if she would want to see without eye, walk without feet, live without food. Therefore be attentive and never leave My Divine Volition if you want to find the Strength, the Light, the Support and your Jesus Himself at your disposal.”
Divine Will for every day of the year - April 28, 1926 Volume 19
I was thinking to myself: “When my sweet Jesus speaks of His Will, He often unites with It the Sovereign Queen of Heaven or the Creation. He seems to delight so much in speaking of both one and the other that He keeps looking for opportunities, pretexts and devices in order to manifest what His Most Holy Will does, both in the Celestial Mama and in the Creation.”
Now, while I was thinking of this, my lovable Jesus moved in my interior, and, all tenderness, squeezed me to Himself and told me: “My daughter, if I do so, I have strong reasons. You must know that only in the Creation and in My Celestial Mama has My Will remained ever intact, and has kept Its field of action free. Therefore, having to call you to live in My Will as one of them, I had to propose them to you as examples — as an image for you to imitate. So, in order to be able to do great things, in such a way that all may perceive that good, unless they did not want to, the first thing is that My Will must act wholly in the soul. …”
Divine Will for every day of the year - April 26, 1906 Volume 7
Continuing in my poor state, I felt there were people around my bed who wanted me to see the chastisements which were happening in the world – earthquakes, wars and many other things, which I could not understand well - to make me intercede with the Lord. It seemed to me that they were Saints, but I cannot tell with certainty. In the meantime, blessed Jesus came out from within my interior, and He said to them: "Do not molest her, do not afflict her by wanting to make her see sorrowful scenes. Rather, let her be tranquil, and leave her alone with Me." They went away, and I remained concerned – “Who knows what is happening, that He does not even want me to see...”
Then, afterwards, I found myself outside of myself, and I saw a priest who began to talk about the earthquakes which had occurred in the past days, saying: "The Lord is very indignant, I believe they are not yet finished." And I: “Who knows whether we will be spared.” He became enflamed, and it seemed that his heart was beating so strongly that I could feel it myself, and those heartbeats would reverberate in my heart. I could not understand who he was, but I felt a certain something being communicated to me. Then he added: "How can grave things happen, with destructions and dying of people, where there is a heart that loves for all? At most, a few tremors might be felt, without considerable damage."
On hearing “a heart that loves for all,” I felt as though I were being picked on, and I myself cannot tell how I came out saying: “What are you saying – a heart that loves for all? Not only that loves for all, but that repairs for all, that suffers, that thanks, that praises, that adores, that respects the holy law for all; because I do not believe it is true love toward the beloved, if one does not render him the love and all the satisfaction which the others were supposed to render him, in such a way that in that person, he must find all the good and the contentment which he was to find in all.” On hearing me, he became more ignited, and drew near me in the act of wanting to clasp me. I was afraid, I felt blushing for having spoken that way, and my heart, struck by his heartbeats, was throbbing. He seemed to transform, as if he were Our Lord, but I cannot tell with certainty. Without my being able to oppose Him, He clasped me to Himself, telling me: "Every morning I will come to you, and we will have breakfast together." At that moment I found myself inside myself.
Divine Will for every day of the year - April 25, 1923 Volume 15
I was praying, and my sweet Jesus came, placing Himself near me in order to pray together with me; even more, His intelligence was reflected in mine, and I prayed with His; His voice echoed in mine, and I prayed with His word. But who can say the boundless effects of this prayer? Then, afterwards, my beloved Jesus told me: “My daughter, I wanted to pray together with you in order to strengthen you in My Will, and to give you the grace of letting you be present before the Supreme Majesty in the act of the creation of man. As We endowed him with all goods, and his will was Ours, and Ours was his, everything was harmony between him and Us; whatever he wanted he would take from Us: Sanctity, Wisdom, Power, Happiness, etc. He was Our prototype, Our portrait, Our happy son. So, at the beginning of his existence, Adam had a period in which he perfectly fulfilled the purpose for which he was created; he experienced what it means to Live of the Will of his Creator, and We also were happy in seeing Our acts being reproduced in Our image. Then, as he broke his will from Ours, he remained separated from Us; but the first acts of man are still in Our Will, and I want nothing else from you but to come into Our Will to continue on from where Adam left, so that you may bind within yourself all the harmonies that he broke. And just as this first creature, because he was created by Us as the head of the whole human family, by withdrawing from Our Will brought unhappiness to all, in the same way, as you come to continue on from where he left, We constitute you the head of all, and therefore the bearer of that happiness and goods which had been assigned to all had they lived in Our Will.”
And I: “My Jesus, how can this be possible? If not even when You Yourself came upon earth to redeem us and to suffer so many pains, was the happiness acquired which the first man lost for himself and for all, how can it be now, that by binding myself within your Eternal Volition, I may give back this lost happiness?” And Jesus: “My daughter, all times are in My hands, I give to whomever I want, and I use whomever I want. I could very well bring the happiness that My Will contains upon earth, but I found no human will that wanted to live perennial life in Mine, so as to retie the bonds of Creation, give Me back all the acts of the first man as if he had done them all with the seal of My Supreme Will, and therefore place the lost happiness in the field. It is true that I had My dear Mama, but She had to cooperate with Me for Redemption. Besides, man was a slave, imprisoned by his very sins, infirm, covered with wounds — the most repugnant ones; and I came as a Loving Father to shed My Blood in order to rescue him, as a doctor to heal him, as a teacher to teach him the way – the escape so as not to fall into hell. Poor ill one, how could he have extended himself in the eternal flights of My Volition if he was unable to walk? Had I wanted to give the happiness which My Will contains, it would have been as though giving it to the dead and letting it be trampled upon. He was not disposed to receive such a great good, and this is why I wanted to teach the prayer to dispose him, and I contented Myself with waiting for different eras, letting centuries upon centuries go by, to make known the living in My Will – to give the start to this happiness.”
And I: “My Love, if with Your Redemption not all are saved, how can it be that Your Will will give this happiness to all?” And Jesus: “Man will always be free, I will never take away from him the rights which I gave him in creating him; only, in Redemption I came to open many ways, small paths and shortcuts to facilitate salvation, the sanctity of man, while with My Will I come to open the royal and straight way which leads to the sanctity of the likeness of their Creator, and which contains true happiness. But in spite of this, they will always be free to remain – some on the royal way, some on the small paths, and some completely outside; however, in the world there will be what now is not – the happiness of the Fiat Voluntas Tua on earth as It is in Heaven. Man did his first acts in My Will and then he withdrew, therefore he was ruined; and since he was the head of all, all members were ruined together. My Humanity formed the plane of all human acts in the Divine Will; My Mama followed Me faithfully; so, everything is prepared. Nothing else is now needed but another creature who, wanting to live perennially in this Will, may come to take possession of the plane formed by Me, and may open the royal way to all, which leads to terrestrial and celestial happiness.”
Divine Will for every day of the year - April 24, 1927 Volume 21
“… Now, creatures take what is material in created things, and leave the Life of Love that, hovering within everything, remains suspended, unable to give itself. It happens as when one goes into a flowery field, or into a garden, in which there are trees loaded with precious fruits. If one only looks at a flower and does not pick it, he will not receive the taste and the life of the fragrance of the flower. If one looks at a fruit and does not pick it from the tree in order to eat it, he will not enjoy it, nor will he receive the life of the fruit.
“So it is with all Creation: man looks at It, but he does not receive the Life of Love placed by God in all created things, because man does not place his will, nor does he open his heart to receive this continuous outpouring of Love of his Creator. But, in spite of this, Our outpouring of Love does not stop; Our regenerative Breath is always in act and in motion, and We wait for the Kingdom of Our Divine Fiat so that this Love of Ours, hovering around, may descend into the midst of creatures and give Our Divine Life; and, in receiving It, the creatures will form their own outpouring of love to give it to Him from whom they receive It.
“Therefore, My daughter, the whole Creation is centralized over you. I look at you from the starry heavens and I send you this outpouring of Love; I look at you from the sun, and breathing over you, I send you My Divine Life. I look at you from the sea, and in its foaming and mighty waves I send you My Love that, being constrained, I unload with might over you, like a sea. I look at you from the wind, and I pour over you My ruling, purifying, warming Love; I look at you from the mountains, and I send you the outpouring of My firm and unshakeable Love. There is not one place or created thing from which I do not look at you, to pour Love over you.
“In fact, since My Will is in you, you draw Me from all sides to look at you, because My Will expands your capacity to receive My continuous outpouring of Love. Wherever My Divine Will reigns, I can give everything, I can centralize everything, and a contest arises between Creator and creature—I, in giving, she, in receiving: I give, and she gives to Me; she gives to Me, and I give in yet more superabundant ways. Therefore, always in My Will do I want you, that we may be always in a contest—I with you, and you with Me.”
Divine Will for every day of the year - April 23, 1925 Volume 17
I was fusing myself in the Holy Divine Will according to my usual way, and my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: "My daughter, come into the immensity of My Will. All Heaven and all things created by Me, which live and receive continuous life from My Will, in which they find their complete glory, their full happiness and their perfect beauty, anxiously await the kiss of the pilgrim soul who lives in the same Will in which they live, to give her their kiss in return, and to place in common with her the glory, the happiness, the beauty which they possess, so that their number may be increased by another creature who would render Me complete glory, for as much as it is possible to a creature, and who would make Me look at the earth with the Love with which I created it, since on earth there is a creature who operates and lives in My Will. Since Heaven knows that nothing glorifies Me as much as a soul who lives in My Will, they too long for My Will to live in the souls upon earth. Therefore, every act the creature does in My Will is a kiss that she gives and receives from the One who created her, and from all the blessed.
“But do you know what this kiss is? It is the transformation of the soul with her Creator; it is the possession of God within the soul, and of the soul in God; it is the growth of the Divine Life in the soul; it is the accord of the whole of Heaven, and it is the right of supremacy over all created things. The soul, purged by My Will through the omnipotent breath which We, her God, infused in her, no longer produces the nausea of the human will, and so God continues to breathe upon her with His omnipotent breath, so that she may grow with that Will with which He created her. On the other hand, the soul who has not yet been purged, feels the attraction of her own will, and so she acts against the Will of God, doing her own. God cannot approach her to breathe on her again, feeling repugnance, until the soul gives all of herself to the exercise and the fulfillment of the Divine Will.
“Therefore, you must know that, in creating man, God infused Life in him with His breath; and in this Life He infused in him an intelligence, a memory and a will, to place them in relation with His Divine Will. This Divine Will was to be like a King; It was to dominate all of the interior of the creature, and to give Life to all, in such a way as to form the intelligence and the memory wanted by the Supreme Will in her. Once this was formed, it was as though natural for the eye of the creature to look at created things, and to know their order and the Will of God over the whole universe. The hearing was to hear the Prodigies of this Eternal Will. The mouth, which was to feel the continuous Breath of its Creator, communicating to it the Life and the goods contained in His Will, was to echo that Eternal FIAT with its word, to narrate what "Will of God" means. The hands were to be the expression of the Works of this Supreme Will. The feet were to do nothing but follow, step by step, the Steps of their Creator. So, once the Divine Will is established in the will of the creature, she has the eyes, the hearing, the mouth, the hands, the feet, of My Will. She never departs from the Origin from which she came; and so she remains always in My arms, and it is easy for her to feel My breath, and for Me to breathe upon her.
“Now, this is exactly what I want from the creature: that she let My Will reign in hers, and that her will serve as the dwelling of My Will, so that the Divine Will may place in her the Celestial Goods It contains. This is what I want from you, so that all your acts, sealed by My Will, may form one single act; and uniting to the single Act of My Will which has no multiplicity or mutation of acts — as it happens in man — your acts may remain in that Eternal Origin, in order to copy your Creator within you, and to give Him the Glory and the contentment that His Will be done in you as It is in Heaven."
Luisa Piccarreta was born 158 years ago today.

… But while I was thinking of this, my sweet Jesus, all delighted, told me: “My daughter, for one who lives in My Will there is not one act of Ours at which she cannot be present, nor any act that We issued from Ourselves that she cannot receive. Here is My Breath to you, and the outpouring of Our Love. How great was Our delight in this first act of the creation of man. We had created Heaven and earth, but We felt nothing new within Ourselves; but in creating man it was very different: it was a will that was being created, and this will was free, and in it We enclosed Our Will, as though putting It in a bank in order to collect the interest of Our Love, of the glory and of the adoration that befitted Us.
“Oh! How Love overflowed within Us; how it trembled with joy in pouring into this free will—to hear it say: ‘I love You.’ And when man, filled with Our own, released from his breast the first word—‘I love You’—immense was Our delight, because it was as if he were giving Us the interest for all the goods We had placed in him. This free will, created by Us, was the depository of the capital of a Divine Will, and We would content Ourselves with a small interest, without ever demanding the capital back. Therefore, great was the sorrow for the fall of man, because he rejected Our capital, so as not to give Us Our small interest. His bank remained empty, and his enemy, banding with him, filled him with passions and miseries. Poor one—he went broke.
“Now, My daughter, since the act of the creation of man was a solemn act, and of great delight for Us, We call you and want you in this act, in order to repeat the solemnity of it, placing in your will the great capital of Ours. And as we do this, Our Love overflows and trembles with joy, with great delight, because We see Our Purpose realized. Surely You will not deny the small interest to Us; you will not reject Our capital, will you? Even more, every day we will do the accounts; I will call you to be present at that first act when We created this free will—you, to give Me the interest, and I, to see if I can add some more of My capital.”

… So, while I was going around in It, my always lovable Jesus was going around together with me, and, all love, told me: “My daughter, My Divine Will is all fullness; there is nothing that It does not possess: immensity of Light, unreachable Sanctity, Endlessness without boundaries, incessant Generation; It sees everything, It feels and molds everything. All this is Its nature in My Divine Fiat, therefore Its acts possess the fullness of all goods.
“So, in order to be able to enclose even a single act of It in the depth of the soul, it is necessary that she empty herself of all of herself, and return to the void of her nothingness, as in the act in which she was created, so that My Divine Volition may find the space of the nothingness to be able to deposit an act of Fullness of Its own, that is such that, possessing the incessant Generative Virtue, one act calls for another, in a way that nothing must be lacking—neither fullness of Light, of Sanctity, of Love, of Beauty, nor multiplicity of Divine Acts.
“Therefore, the Sanctity done in My Divine Will possesses all the fullness—but so much, that if God wanted to give her more, He would not find the space in which to put more Light, more Beauty. We would say: ‘You are all beautiful, nor can We add for you any more beauty, so beautiful you are. You are the work of Our Volition, and this is enough for you to be a work worthy of Us.’
“And the soul will say: ‘I am the triumph of Your Divine Fiat, therefore I am all rich and beautiful. I possess the fullness of an Act of Your Divine Will, that fills me completely; and if You wanted to give me more, I would not know where to put it.’ …”

… After this, I continued my round in all that Our Lord did on earth and I stopped in the Act of Resurrection. What Triumph, what Glory. Heaven poured Itself on earth to be spectator of such a great Glory. My beloved Jesus said: “My daughter, in My Resurrection, the right was given to creatures to Rise Again in Me to New Life. It was the Confirmation, the Seal of My whole Life, My Works and My Words. If I came on earth it was to give to each and every one My Resurrection, as their own—to give them Life and make them Rise Again in My own Resurrection. But do you want to know where is the Real Resurrection of the creature? Not in the end of her days, but while she is still living on earth. One who Lives in My Will Rises Again to Light and says: ‘My night is over.' She Rises Again in the Love of her Creator, so that there is no more cold or snow for her, but the smile of the Heavenly Spring; she Rises Again to Sanctity, that puts in rushed flight all weaknesses, miseries and passions; she Rises Again to all that is Heaven, and if she looks at the earth, Heaven and sun, she does it to find the Works of her Creator—to take the opportunity to narrate to Him His Glory and His long Love Story.
“Therefore, one who Lives in My Will can say, as the Angel said to the holy women on the way to the Sepulcher, ‘He is risen. He is not here any more.' One who Lives in My Will can also say, ‘My will is not with me any longer—it is Risen Again in the Fiat.' And if the circumstances of life, opportunities and sufferings surround the creature, as if they were looking for her will, she can answer: ‘My will is Risen Again; it is not in my power anymore. I possess, in exchange, the Divine Will, and I want to cover with Its Light all things around me—circumstances and sufferings, to make them like many Divine Conquests.' The soul who Lives in Our Will finds Life in the Acts of her Jesus, and as always, in this Life, she finds Our Operating, Conquering, Triumphant Will. She gives us so much Glory that Heaven cannot contain it. Therefore, Live always in Our Will—never leave it, if you want to be Our Triumph and Our Glory.”
