The space of the human will: divine room for the wonders of God.
“How much more should I tell you, my daughter, of the great gift we gave to the creature in creating her human will? First, we created the space, then the sky, the stars, the sun, the air, the wind and so forth. That space had to serve us so that we could create all other works. It would not be a work worthy of our Wisdom to create things without having the space in which to place them.
In the same way, by creating the human will we created the vacuum, the place, in which to put the great gift of our Most Holy Will which we gave to man. This space had to serve our operating Will. We were to place in it the most extensive Heavens and the brightest suns; not a single one, but one for each time man would act.
Therefore, while Creation had to serve man, this space of the human will was to serve His God – to form His delights; to always be able to form His shelf, His Throne, His divine chamber. I gave man this gift, forming this space within him in order to have the place in which to communicate with him – to be one-on-one with him, in sweet company.
I wanted to have my secret room. My Love wanted to tell him many things, but I wanted the environment in which to talk to him, and in which my Love could reach the extent of giving itself completely to man, while he would completely abandon himself in God.
This is why I love so much that he live in our Will: because I want what I created to be only for Myself. I demand my shelf, my Throne, my divine chamber. I cannot accomplish the Creation until man comes back into my Divine Will and gives Me my royal place inside his will.
We have so many more beautiful things to do – many more things to say inside our space of the human will – but we cannot say or do: because our Will is missing, we find our space all cluttered up. So we do not have the space in which to place our works. If we want to speak, he will not understand; he will not even have the hearing to listen.
Therefore, we will make unheard-of prodigies to acquire again what is Ours: the space and our divine room.”
