Our intentions in the Divine Will
Let us prepare ourselves for prayer as Mama Mary teaches us.
“Mama Mary, with your help and the help of my Guardian Angel, I surround my head with the thorns of Jesus, I bead my eyes with His tears, I impregnate my tongue with His bitterness, I clothe my soul with His Blood, I adorn myself with His wounds, I pierce my hands and feet with His nails and I present yourself before the Holy Trinity to unite myself in His Will and to pray with all Creatures.”
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.
"According to your faith be it done to you" (Mt 9:29)
Passage from “Book of Heaven” by Luisa Piccarreta, the Little Daughter of the Divine Will – 29 September 1912 – Our intentions in the Divine Will
Another time I was thinking about what would be the best way to offer our actions, our prayers, etc. - whether as reparations, adoration, etc. My always benign Jesus told me: "My daughter, one who lives in my Will and does her things because I want it so, does not need to dispose her intentions. Since she is in my Will, as she operates, prays or suffers, I Myself dispose these things the way I please. Do I like the reparation? I placed them for reparation. Do I like love? I take them as love. Being the owner, I make of them whatever I please. It is not so for those who are not in my Will: they dispose, and I respect their will."
Another day, having read in a book about a saint who, first had almost no need of food, and then needed to feed herself very often - her necessity being such that she would cry if they didn't give her something – I remained concerned, thinking about my state, since once I used to take very little food and I was forced to bring it up, and now I take more and I don't bring it up. And I was saying to myself: ‘Blessed Jesus, how is this? I consider this a mortification for me. My wickedness leads me to these miseries.' And Jesus came and told me: "My daughter, do you want to know why? I am here to make you content. At the beginning, in order to render a soul completely mine, to empty her of all that is of the senses and place into her all that is celestial and Divine, I detach her even from the necessity of food, in such a way that she almost doesn't need it. So, the soul rises high, neglecting and ignoring everything: her life is celestial.
After I have trained her well, for years and years, no longer fearing that the senses might shade her - since after the soul has tasted the heavenly it is almost impossible that she might appreciate earthly things, which are nothing other than mud and slime - I give her back to ordinary life, because I want my children to take part in the things that I created for love of them - but according to my Will, not to theirs. It is only for love of these children that I am forced to feed the others.
Further, since many use natural goods with attachment and not according to my Will, it is for Me the most beautiful reparation to see these souls who, like celestial children, take the necessary things with sacrifice, detachment, and according to my Will.
How can you say that there is wickedness in you for this? Not at all. What's the evil of taking, in my Will, a little more or a little less of what is nothing other than an earthly thing? Nothing...nothing. There cannot be any evil in my Will, but always good, even in the most insignificant things."
Let us pray
Lord, the only thought that preoccupies me is this one: living in Your Will and your Love because You take care of the rest.
Lord, in your Will, out of love for You, I want to use all earthly things with the detachment of a soul living in your Will, wishing to accomplish all things in Your Love.
