immediately after: ‘On earth as It is in Heaven.’ ‘On earth as It is in
Heaven’ means to live in the Divine Will; it means to pray that the
Kingdom of My Will may come on earth in order to live in It.
“In Heaven, they not only do My Will, but they live in It they possess It
as their own thing, and as their own Kingdom. And if they did It, but did
not possess It, their happiness would not be full, because true
happiness begins in the depth of the soul. To do the Will of God does
not mean to possess It, but to submit oneself to Its commands, while to
live in It is possession. Therefore, in the ‘Our Father’, in the words ‘Your
Will be done’ is the prayer that all may do the Supreme Will, and in ‘on
earth as It is in Heaven,’ that man may return into that Will from which
he came, in order to reacquire his happiness, the lost goods, and the
possession of his Divine Kingdom.”

How the soul goes around in all Creation and Redemption, keeping
the Divine Will company in all of Its acts, and asking for Its
Kingdom in each one of them. How the Fiat is the foundation of the
Kingdom of the Divine Will.
It seems I cannot do without continuing my round in the Supreme Will. I
feel It is my true home, and only when I go around within It then am I
content, because I find everything that belongs to my sweet Jesus, and
by virtue of His Will, all that belongs to Him, is also mine. Therefore, I
have much to give to my beloved Good; even more, there is so much to
give Him, that I never finish giving Him everything. So I remain always
with the desire to go back and continue my round, to be able to give
Him everything that belongs to His adorable Will.
So, while going around, thinking of the great good that the Supreme
Volition brings to the soul, I prayed to Jesus that He would soon make It
known to all, so that they might take part in such a great good. And in
order to obtain this, as I reached each created thing, I said to Him: “I
come into the sun to keep company with Your Will reigning and
dominating in it, with all the splendour of Its majesty. But while I keep
You company in the sun, I pray You that Your Eternal Fiat be known,
and just as It reigns triumphantly in the sun, It may come to reign
triumphantly in the midst of creatures.
