The importance of divine suffering
Jesus, rest your gaze upon me, prepare my soul to receive the kiss of your union, cleanse me. May we live this prayer together, united in every way, in body, in soul, in love and in free will. May this encounter between love created and Love uncreated be a source of Life for all. In this way, hidden in your Love, all the created dissolves in the ardent fire of Love uncreated. Amen. FIAT.
“Do not be afraid” (Tb 6:17)
Passage from “Book of Heaven” by Luisa Piccarreta, the Little Daughter of the Divine Will – 2 April 1917 – the pains of the privation of Jesus are Divine pains
I was lamenting to my always lovable Jesus for His usual privations, and I said to Him: ‘My love, what a continuous death. Every privation of You is a death that I feel – but such a cruel and ruthless death that, while it makes me feel the effects of death, it does not make me die. I cannot understand how the goodness of your Heart can resist in seeing me suffer so many continuous deaths, and still make me continue to live.'
And blessed Jesus came for a little while, and pressing me to his Heart, told me: “My daughter, press yourself to my Heart and draw life. But know that the pain which satisfies Me, is the pain of my privation, because it is a Divine pain.
You must know that souls are so bound to Me as to form many links connected together within my Humanity. As souls are lost, they break these links, and I feel the pain as if one member were detaching itself from the other. Now, who can connect these links together? Who can weld them, in such a way as to make the split disappear? Who can make them enter into Me again, in order to give them life? The pains of my privation – because they are Divine.
My pain for the loss of souls is Divine; the pain of the soul who cannot see Me or feel Me is Divine. Since they are both Divine pains, they can kiss each other, be linked to each other, stand before each other, and have such power as to catch the escaped souls, and link them in my Humanity.
My daughter, does my privation cost you very much? And if it does cost you, do not keep as useless such a costly pain. As I offer it to you, do not keep it for yourself, but let it fly into the midst of the combatants; snatch their souls from amid the bullets, and enclose them in Me. Place your pain as weld and seal, and then let it go round the whole world, to make it catch souls and bring them all back to Me. So, as you feel the pains of my privation, you will keep placing the seal of the reconnection.”
Let us pray
Lord, those who chose to live in your Will have a great responsibility. As I carry this responsibility, I am not afraid, because I know that your Will shapes me, like Mother Mary's mould, to the point where I will be able to let everything be done according to your Word. Strengthened by your Will, there is nothing I can't face. So I walk contently as you guide me on my path; I trust in you. From You, I will gather all that I need to fulfill the responsibilities that You give me, and You will be so glad to provide for me.
