I was thinking about the Divine Will and—oh! how many thoughts crowded my mind. Having transported me outside of myself, my always lovable Jesus had shown me the many chastisements with which He wants to strike the human generations; and I, shaken, thought to myself: “How can the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat come if the earth abounds with evil, and Divine Justice is arming all the elements to destroy man and what serves man? And besides, this Kingdom did not come when Jesus came upon earth with His visible presence—how can It come now? As things are now, it seems difficult to me.”
And my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter, everything you saw will serve to purify and prepare the human family. The turmoils will serve to reorder, and the destructions to build more beautiful things. If a collapsing building is not torn down, a new and more beautiful one cannot be formed upon those very ruins. I will stir everything for the fulfillment of my Divine Will.
“And besides, when I came upon earth, it was not decreed by Our Divinity that the Kingdom of My Will should come, but that of Redemption; and in spite of human ingratitude, It was accomplished. However, It has not yet covered all of Its way; many regions and peoples live as if I had not come, therefore it is necessary that It make Its way and walk everywhere, because Redemption is the preparatory way for the Kingdom of My Will. It is the army that goes forward in order to form the peoples to receive the regime, the life, the king of My Divine Will. And so, what was not decreed for that time We decree today, for the fulfillment of the Kingdom of Our Fiat.
“And when We decree, all is done; in Us, it is enough to decree in order to accomplish what We want. This is why what seems difficult to you will all be made easy by Our Power. It will act like those mighty winds after long days of thick and rainy clouds: the power of the wind dispels the clouds, takes rain away, and makes the good weather return and the sun embrace the earth. In the same way, more than ruling wind, Our Power will put to flight the darkness of the human will, and will make the Sun of My Eternal Will reappear to embrace the creatures. And everything I manifest to you—the truths that pertain to It, are nothing other than the confirmation of what We have decreed.
“Furthermore, if the Kingdom of My Divine Fiat and the time of Its nearing fulfillment had not been decreed before by the Divinity, there would have been no reason, nor necessity, nor purpose for choosing you, for keeping you sacrificed for so many years, and for entrusting to you, as to Its little daughter, the knowledges of It, Its admirable truths and Its secret and hidden sorrows. And not only this, but the Divinity has acted with you in a way that is all paternal and maternal, in order to sow in you the seed of Divine daughtership, and so that you would take Its interests to heart, more than if they were your own.
“This signifies the reality of what had been decreed by Us, to the point of choosing the subject, of using the means and of giving the teachings in order to descend down below to the human family, and establish in their midst what had been decreed in Heaven. If the Kingdom of My Will had not been decreed, I would not have told you so much about It, nor would I have chosen you in a way all special for this purpose. My Word would have been without life and without fruit if it were not so, and without the generative and fecundating virtue—which cannot be. My Word possesses the virtue of generating and of forming, through Its fecundity, Its offspring of endless lives.
“This happened in Redemption, because It had been decreed by Us in Heaven. A Virgin was created who was to be the Mother of the Eternal Word. If this had not been decreed, there would have been no reason, nor necessity to create and choose this Virgin, wholly unique and special; nor to give so many manifestations to the Prophets, who depicted the Life of the Word in His Humanity, describing His pains so vividly—as if they had Him present with them.
“Therefore, when Our Divine benignity deigns to choose and to manifest Itself, it is the sure sign and the beginning of the carrying out of Its works, which It holds as decreed. Therefore, be attentive, and let your Jesus do everything, because neither power nor means are lacking for what I want, and for carrying out what I have decreed.”
