One who lives in the Divine Will places herself in the condition of receiving and of being able to always give to her Creator. How one who prays disperses the coin, forms the void, and acquires the capacity of possessing what she asks for.
I was doing my round in the Divine Will, and my little human volition, lost in it, burned with the desire to search out all its acts in order to make them mine, so as to be able to lord over everything and have in my power an infinite glory and eternal love, innumerable acts, one distinct from the other, that never end, in order to be able to always give love, glory, works to my Creator as daughter of His will. I feel the need of possessing everything in order to have the love that never says enough and divine acts worthy of the Supreme Majesty.
Can my always adorable Jesus, almost to confirm what I thought, told me: "My daughter, for one who does My will and lives in it, everything is hers. If it gives itself to the creature, it does not give itself only, but it brings all its works because they are inseparable from it, and it makes use of them in order to let wander, nourish, make happy, enrich with its immense riches she who lives in it. And it places itself in the conditions of not being able to always receive from the creature. If My divine volition could not give everything and always give and always receive from one who lives in its volition, it would not be a true happy life in it, because the substance of happiness is formed by new surprises, by exchanges of gifts, by various and manifold works, each one possessing the source of various joints that the one makes a gift of to the other, and they attest their love to each other in turn. One pours into the other, and in this pouring into each other, they communicate secrets, and the creature makes new discoveries about the Divinity and acquires other knowledge about the Supreme Being. Like in My will is not a joke, but operating life and continuous activity. Rather, you must know that there is nothing that has been done by God, by the Saints, and by everyone that is not given to one who lives in My volition, because there is nothing of good that does not belong to it. And as you feel the need of possessing everything, so everyone feels the need of giving himself to you. But do you know why they want to pass through the channel of the human volition? In order to give the good that they possess and to duplicate the good, the glory of their acts to their Creator. In fact, as you desire to search them out, so our works and those of the whole of Heaven desire to be sought. It seems that they say, one after the other: 'And to me! And to me! Do not pass me over, take me in your power, unite us all together, so that one is the love, the glory of everyone, to that Supreme Will that has given birth to us in its womb and has given us life.' And therefore, living in My will is the prodigy of prodigies; it is the unity of everything; it is to possess everything, to receive and give everything. And since I want to always give to the creature, I ardently yearn for her, and My Fiat, in order to give her what I want, tends to fulfill My desires."
After this, I thought to myself: "But what good comes to me? What glory do I give to God by always asking that His will be known and take its royal place that belongs to it in creatures? It seems that I do not know how to ask for anything else. It seems to me that Jesus Himself is tired of hearing me tell the same story. I want Your Fiat—is life for me and for everyone."
But while I thought this, my sweet Jesus added: "My blessed daughter, you must know that when the creature incessantly prays to obtain a good, she acquires the capacity of possessing that good, and possessing it, she has the virtue of letting it be possessed by others. Prayer is like the disbursement of the coin in order to purchase the good that one wants. Prayer forms the esteem, the appreciation, the love that is needed in order to possess it. Prayer forms the void in the soul, for where to be able to enclose the desired good; otherwise, if I want to give it, and then she will not have where to place it. And also, you cannot give Me greater glory than to ask Me that My will be known and reign. This is My own prayer; it is the yearning and the heartbeat of My heart; they are My ardent anxieties. And you must know that so much is My love that I want to make My will known that, not being able to hold it back, that pours over you, and I make you say your Fiat: 'Come, Your will be known.' In fact, I am who, praising you, it is not you; they are My outlets of love, My loving outpouring that feel the need of uniting Me with the creature in order not to be alone in praying for such a good. And in order to give more value to this prayer, it places in your power My works, the whole of creation, My life, My tears, My sufferings, so that it is not a prayer of only words, but a prayer confirmed by My works, life, sufferings, and My tears. Oh, how sweet does your little refrain resound to My hearing, your little loving sing-song that echoes Mine: 'Your Fiat, come, Your will be known!' And if you did not do this, you would suffocate My prayer in you, and I would remain embittered, and I would remain alone, alone to pray. But I must also tell you, do you know who feels the need of retracing all My works and sufferings in order to ask Me that My will be known and reign? The one who has known it and loves it. In view of the great good, she cannot stop repeatedly asking that everyone know and possess it. And therefore, think that I am with you, and I pray together with you when you feel that you can do no less than pray for the triumph of My will."
