Message of April 7th 1992, The Annunciation.
Our Blessed Mother said, "I am the Handmaid of the Lord; Be it done unto Me according to Thy Will."
She continued, "These are the words I spoke on the great day of the Annunciation. May we first analyse the words. 'I am': My children, this is My proclamation of servant hood; only God Is; I am His created creature. This statement, 'I am' is full of joy, full of thanksgiving, full of the recognition of My nothingness; I am because God so allows.
In declaring Myself, 'the Handmaid of the Lord' I am declaring in full My nothingness, My created condition, My servitude to the Master of all creation; I am declaring My love for My God.
My love in nothingness continues in My declaration, 'Be it done
unto Me'; 'I am' develops-continues into, 'I am willing'; I am the recipient of the Divine Grace; I am the Servant of the Most Holy Will. My response, My action is as much as God allows and so desires.
'According to Thy Will.' This is the ultimate surrender of My declaration - and even then I do not surrender; there is no giving up or giving in; surrender in God is My fulfilment. My 'surrender' is to all that is God, all that is His Will; therefore I am complete. 'According to Thy Will' is a balance - a harmony; All that is, is all that is God.
I feel very tired after the declaration and the experience. But this feeling is in the time of the declaration.
I invite all to declare with Me, 'I am'.
If each soul says, 'I am' and when each soul says, 'I am' - there is the joy! Say it, My children - 'I am'. Yes, My children - the abiding 'yes' - you ARE. Declare your existence in God. I, the created soul, exist according to the Creator.
I am - the existence is His great gift! Oh children, remember daily 'I am'! Therefore, remember daily your creation - and your created purpose. The purpose? The hand servant.
Children! Children! What purpose! To serve the Creator!
In all your serving you are fulfilled. Yes - Yes - the positive; 'I am the servant of the Most High.', Oh how generous is His Love! Oh how generous to me, a created being, to serve my Lord! Oh how glorious! How worthwhile! Most worthwhile! 'I am' goes further - 'I am the hand servant'. And Whom do we serve, My sons and daughters? Reflect on Whom we serve; The Lord.
Oh My children reflect on these words, very seriously indeed, reflect on these words: 'Me' and 'Thy'. Who guides? Who sustains? Children! Children! There is no room for 'No'.
'No' is ME thinking only of MYSELF. God's Will is the WILL of the Creator - Most Holy Will - Most Loving - Most Considerate - Most Perfect. In this world, so full of imperfections, say only 'Yes'; 'Yes Most Holy Lord, Creator of all that is; Yes - abidingly so - Yes. Be it done unto me according to THY Will! Yes - I surrender to Thy Love - to Thy Most Holy Will!"
Children , be ever ready to respond - in all life's situations -
'Be it done unto me, my Lord, according to Thy Will'.
I desire that this message be given to all My children; all My children must surrender to the Most Holy Will of God, the Creator, the Redeemer."
