I felt worried by the thought:
“How will this Kingdom of the Divine Will ever be able to come? Sin abounds, evils get worse, it seems to me that the creatures are not disposed to receive such a Great Good. So much so, that there is not a soul, as good as they may be, who truly wants to occupy himself with making known what regards the Divine Will. If God does not Operate a Prodigy of His Omnipotence, the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat may be in Heaven, but as for the earth, it is useless to think about it.”
But while I was thinking of this and other things, my beloved Jesus, making His usual visit to my soul, told me:
-
“My daughter, everything is possible for Us.
The impossibilities, the difficulties, the insurmountable obstacles of creatures melt before Our Supreme Majesty like snow in front of a burning Sun. Everything is in whether We wánt it. All the rest is nothing.
Did the same not happen in Redemption? Sin abounded more than ever. Only a small group of people was awaiting the Messiah. And in the midst of this group, how many hypocrisies, how many sins of all kinds—they were often idolatrous.
But it was decreed that I was to come upon earth.
In the face of Our Decrees, all evils cannot prevent what We want to do. We are glorified more by one Act alone of Our Will than We are offended by all the evils and sins committed by creatures. Because Our Act of the Will is Divine and Immense. And in its Immensity it embraces all eternity, all centuries. It extends to all.
Therefore, it is not of Our Infinite Wisdom not to give Life to even just one Act of Our Will because of the evils of creatures. We place Ourselves on Our Divine Side, and We do what We have to do.
And the creatures, We leave by their human side. And acting as Sovereigns, We Lord it over everything and everyone, even over evil, and We put out Our Decrees.
-
Now, just as My Coming upon earth was Our Decree...
so is Our Decree the Kingdom of Our Will upon earth.
Even more, it can be said that one and the other are one single Decree. And having carried out the First Act of this Decree, We are to carry out the Second.
It is true that We pace Ourselves according to the good disposition of the creatures in order to give the great Good that an Act of Our Will can produce. And therefore at most We take time, and We make Our Way in the midst of their evils in order to dispose them.
It is true that the times are sad. The peoples themselves are tired, they see all the ways closed to them, they can find no way out even for the necessary natural means. The oppressions, the demands of the leaders are unbearable—just penalty, since they have elected as leaders godless men, of evil life, without a just right to be leaders, who deserved a prison more than the right of regime.
Many thrones and empires have been overthrown, and those few that are left are all vacillating and about to be overthrown. So, the earth will remain almost without kings...
in the hands of iniquitous men.
[3.1.1932]
