P. 160

thought to myself: “Created things are inanimate, therefore they do not
            have the virtue of asking for a Kingdom so holy.”


            But while I was thinking of this, my beloved Jesus came out from within
            my interior and told me: “My daughter, it is true that created things are

            without soul; however, inside each one of them runs the life of My Will,
            and only by virtue of It do they maintain themselves beautiful, just as
            they were created. Now, created things are all noble and queens all

            belonging to My Royal Family; and by virtue of My Will that animates
            them, and of the acts that My Will exercises in them, they have the right
            to ask for the coming of My Kingdom, because It is also their Kingdom.
            In order to ask, with right, for the coming of the Kingdom of the Divine

            Fiat, it is necessary to be one from Our family, in whom Our Will has Its
            first place, Its throne, Its life. This is why first I made you be born in It,
            so that It might have Its rights of paternity over you, and you might have

            the rights of daughter, in order to have the rights to ask for Its Kingdom;
            and not you alone, but also by virtue of all created things that is, of all
            those innumerable acts that Our Will exercises in all Creation to ask
            that Our Kingdom and yours may come.


            “My daughter, who can aspire to have the right to be king, if not a son of
            king? Even more, everyone sees in him the right that the kingdom will

            be his. But if they see a servant, a peasant, aspiring to it, who does not
            belong to the royal family and says that he has the right to be king and
            that the kingdom will be his, this one is considered insane and he

            deserves all mockeries. In the same way, one who wanted to ask for My
            Kingdom, but My Holy Will did not reign in him, being in the condition of
            a servant, does not have the right to ask for My Kingdom. And if he

            asks for It, it is without right, and a simple way of speaking.

            “Now, suppose that a king had, as his children, hundreds thousands of
            children, all belonging, legitimately, to his royal family. Do all of them

            not have the right to occupy noble positions not unseemly to their
            status; and to say: ‘The kingdom of our father is our kingdom, because
            we carry his royal blood in our veins’? Now, in all Creation, in the

            children who will belong to the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat, will flow,
            more than blood, the life of It, which will give them the right to belong to
            the Royal and Celestial Family, in such a way that all will be kings and




                                                              160
