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.

"When a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed" (2 Co 3:16)

Passage from “Book of Heaven” by Luisa Piccarreta, the Little Daughter of the Divine Will – 20 January 1927

“My daughter, do you not know that there is a Communion that is eternal, so great, and not subject to either diminishing or being consumed? Its veils, that hide it in the midst of creatures, are not subject to perishing like the veils of the Sacramental Host. It gives itself in every instant, at each breath, at each heartbeat and in all circumstances. Even more, one must be always with one's mouth open to be able to receive them all – that is, with the will of always wanting to receive this Communion so great and continuous that, as much as it gives itself, it is not subject to either diminishing or being consumed. Otherwise, many times they remain outside the soul, without entering into her.

“You have already understood what this Communion so great and continuous is: It is My Divine Fiat, that flows as life within your soul; as heat to fecundate you and to make you grow; as food to nourish you. It flows in the blood of your veins, in the beating of your heart – in everything; It is always in the act of giving Itself to you, if you just want to receive It. It would drown you with Communions, so many It wants to give you.

“With reason, with justice and by right, the Communion of My Will was to be without limits and not subject to being consumed, because It is the origin, the means and end of the creature…

Let us pray

Yes, Lord, I have a deep desire to live in communion with your Will. I desire it, I want it. It is Your Life that comes to live in me, so yes, I want it. How could I live without It? You showed me the way, and I thirst for your communion. I want to embrace you, embrace your Will, live in It, dissolve myself in It so as to love You in the divine Fiat. There, I know that since your Will is always in me, You will find on this earth all your goods, all your beauty and, since Your Will gives itself endlessly to me, my Dear Jesus, You will find rest.

What is this joy that I feel? This joy in discovering that nothing can undermine the veils of this communion? Oh how it consoles me to know that my misery cannot reach the veils of this communion in your Will. You, so good, so full of Love, so Beautiful. I can throw myself in full confidence, with all my misery, in the Communion of Your Will and there will nothing left but Goodness and Beauty for You. What joy this brings to my poor heart… With the will of this communion in Your Will, I say in union with my sisters and brothers the following prayer: (click “Pray”)

Going Further

I invite us to discover others of Luisa's writings and rediscover all the meditations that are offered, including “The Eucharistic fast: an offering of your life” ; each reading is a new lesson.

Within this journey of rediscovery, I invite you to practice it with “The Eucharistic fast: an offering of your life” as well. Reading the texts once is never enough for me (and yet, I rewrite them on my computer and I've recently been reading them aloud) but I am unable to grasp the depth of it because who can grasp the infinite depth God's Will? There is always something new to understand with the action of the Light of Jesus.

Jesus often explained to Luisa: when a soul decides to enter into the Life in my Will, I place myself next to her and I am her teacher as soon as she reads the texts of the Book of Heaven, the Hours of the Passion, the Meditations of the month of Mary. Heaven opens and gives us all the graces.

Think of it: our act becomes divine, changed by the intention of entering in the Divine Will. This intention changes the act into a divine act – which explains how the Life in the Divine Will is a perpetual and non-consumed communion.
