20. To Federico Abresch from Bologna
In Voluntate Dei! – Fiat
Most esteemed one in the Lord,
You cannot imagine the contentment I feel when I hear that
one wants to live in the Divine Will, because it is a victory of Jesus;
and as He conquers our will, we conquer His Own. In the Kingdom
of the Divine Will no one loses, we are all winners, both God and
the creature.
I am surprised by your doubts. How is it? Don’t you know
that Redemption is preparation for the Kingdom of the Divine Will?
And the Sacred Heart of Jesus is nothing other than the immense
Reign of His Will. It is not the Heart that dominates; it is the Divine
Will that dominates His Divine Heart. Poor Heart, if it did not have
a Will to dominate it, it would be good at nothing. If the will is
good, the heart is good; if the will is holy, the heart is holy. If our
will gives place to the Divine, letting It raise Its throne in our will,
the heart acquires the divine qualities by grace. Therefore, both in
the Divine and in the human order, it is always the will that has the
first place, the prime act, its rule. The heart and all the rest are in
the secondary order… Therefore, to say that the Heart reigns, if the
Divine Will does not reign, is absurd. They can be called devotions,
pious practices…; if the Divine Will does not reign, the Kingdom
does not exist. It exists in Heaven, but has no place on earth.
However, the Holy Church, organ and messenger of the Supreme
Fiat, through the Sacred Heart, through the Celestial Mama
beseeches the Kingdom of the Divine Will. She does not say it with
words, but says it with facts. The Divine Volition is the King-His
Heart, His wounds, His precious Blood, the sweet Queen, form the
ministers that surround the King, and through them beseech the
Kingdom of the Divine Will in souls.
Now, how can one know It? All the necessary things, the
different circumstances in which we may find ourselves, are Will of
God for us. If we are really determined to live in It, God is so
pleased that, if miracles are needed, He will make them in order not
to let us use our will. It is up to us to truly decide, and be willing to
give even our life in order to live in It; and dear Jesus and the
Sovereign Queen will take on the commitment, will be our sentries,
and will surround us with such graces as to not let us be betrayed by
our own wills. More so, since our Lord does not teach difficult
things, nor does He impose them or want them, but He facilitates all
that He wants from us in an admirable way; even more, He puts
Himself in our place to make it easy for us, and does together with
us all that He wants us to do.
I commend myself to your prayers and also to my good
daughter Amelia. Make yourselves saints. May the Divine Volition
stretch out Its arms to you, to raise you in Its womb. Look at all
things as bearers of It, to give you Its life, Its sanctity… The little
one-raise him holy, as a gift of the Fiat; who knows whether your
desires to see him religious and holy may not be fulfilled. So I
leave you all in the Divine Volition; let me always find you in It.
And with a thousand regards to the father, to the mother and to the
son, I say,
Most affectionately yours,
the little daughter of the Divine Will
