Luisa Piccarreta - Living in the Divine Will (EN)

 

  It shows that the devil is consumed with rage not to make the Divine Will known… It is not even necessary that I send you the obedience, for I would send you a thousand; but it is absolute Will of God that we interest ourselves in making It known, even at the cost of our own lives. And this, instead of being presumption, as you say, would be the most sacrosanct duty; and whoever does it will be kept by Jesus as the favorite of His Heart, and will receive primacy in His Kingdom. As for the writings, there is nothing to fear that they might be destroyed. Jesus keeps them in custody, and woe to whoever would dare to touch them; because these are His writings, not mine, and He will well defend what belongs to Him

  You must know that even humility does not exist in the Divine Will, but pure nothingness, which knows clearly that anything good which can be done, is the All operating in the nothing. So the poor nothing is in the act of being continuously born; it is the All that grows and forms Its life in the nothing. Oh power of the Divine Will – as soon as the soul decides and wants to live in It, the Most Holy Trinity takes Its prime operating place in her. And since this is an Act of Divine Will, all want their place of honor in that Act: the Queen of Heaven, the Angels, the Saints, and all created things. So, with one single Act of Divine Will, we enclose everything, we embrace everything, and we give everything to God, even all that the Eternal Word did upon earth. The goods which descend for the benefit of all are incalculable.

B y living together with the Divine Will, what is of Jesus and of the Queen Mama, is ours; ours His sanctity, His life, and the immense seas of His riches. Jesus and the Queen feel happy, for They are not alone in their happiness and in the goods they possess, but have the children of the Fiat, who are also their children, to keep them company and to live with them. And what is more is that, if we lack something, They take to heart our sanctity, They compensate for us in everything; They give us their love and everything They have done as our courtship and dowry, so that we may live with Them. Therefore, by living in the Divine Will everything is ours, and we can give everything to God. Even more, every act of Will of God that we do creates His Life in us, and we form the long generation of God in our acts. Therefore, the thing that most facilitates living in the Divine Will, is to do whatever we can – and because God wants it; a Fiat is impressed in our act, and the Divine Life is for

 

 

It is the crosses, the sufferings united to the Divine Volition, that form the raw material in order to receive in us the life of Jesus, Who calls our littleness to live in Him and to rise in Him

 The  most consoling thing for a human heart is to be able to say:  “Whatever God wants, I want; whatever God does, I do.” The Heavens open at these acclamations in order to unite Creator and creature, so that whatever one does, the other may do as well. 

Th ere is no greater good we can wish to each other than wanting the Divine Will alone to reign within us.  We will have God Himself in our power, His Sanctity, His Love – everything will be ours.  There is no good done both in Heaven and on earth, that will not be ours.  We will be the help of all; together with Jesus we will have one single breath, one single heartbeat, one single motion together with Him.  Seas of sanctity and beauty will flow in every act we do, such that God Himself will remain enraptured.

  Do you want to know how to grow in the FIAT?  By calling it in everything you do, whether natural or spiritual.  In fact, everything belongs to the Divine Will; therefore It wants to love together with you, and if you call It, It gives you Its Love in your power in order to be loved; It gives you Its sanctity to make yourself a saint, Its light to allow you to know yourself and to eclipse weaknesses, miseries and passions, so that they may no longer have life in you, but only Its Will, which lays and forms Its life in your little act… If you do so, It will feel as a Queen in my daughter who is far away – but a ruling Queen.  You will give It much to do, and whatever you do, It will do.  It will not leave you one instant; on the contrary, It will form your breath, your heartbeat, motion, step, and, even while you sleep, It will form your rest and will rest together with you.  But all Its contentment will be to feel as the Queen and Mother of her daughter and mine… Therefore, my deares

  May dear Jesus reward you by forming His life in you.  However, it takes great attention:  first of all you must try to have the necessary food in order to nourish dear Jesus and let Him grow.  The first necessary food is peace.  Disturbance is not food for Jesus.  Peace forms the day, and converts everything we do into love.  With it, we form abundant and divine material in order to form Jesus, nourish Him, and make Him grow.  Once we have formed the necessary substance, the divine Will invests it and forms the Life of His Will.  Oh, how happy He becomes then!  Jesus finds in us His Will that loves Him, courts Him, and keeps Him in feast.  And then what happens, my daughter?  Our breath, our heartbeat and motion become the breath, the heartbeat and the motion of Jesus; we receive His life, we make of It our model, and all our acts are modelled by the Life of Jesus. Therefore, be attentive; love peace and everything will smile at you, also Jesus Himself.

 Y ou must know that this is a task which God gave us in Creation.  The origin of our existence was formed in the center of the Supreme Fiat.  God created our human will as His divine room, as a secret office, in which He was to live together with us, and have His pulpit in order to teach us the celestial doctrine of His Will.  Therefore, no law can impose us not to live in It; neither the Holy Church, as much as we bow and adore Her dispositions, nor God Himself can say to us:  “I do not want you to live in my Will”, because He Himself, with highest Wisdom, gave us the right by creation.  By living in It, we must be the dwelling of God, the bearers of our Creator; the ones in whom, in order to pour out His delirium of love, He was to become the narrator of His Divine Being within the secret room of our human will.  And therefore He wants us to know how much He loves us, and that He wants us to live in His Will with that same love with which children and Father live… Oh, how embittered

 

 

  Benedictine Oblates of the Divine Will                                           (Third Order)  In these present times, the one thing we can depend on more and more is prayer. Praying for one another continuously to become true apostles of the Divine Will is an essential part of our mission. Our Lord, Our Lady and Luisa brought us to this point of asking that we unite in prayer in the Most Holy Divine Will. Through the Grace of God, after much prayer, Father Elijah Joseph (Benedictine Monks of Divine Will – 1 st  Order) and Mother Gabrielle Marie (Benedictine Daughters of Divine Will – 2 nd  Order) with permission from their Bishop, Msgr. Andrea Turazzi, have established the 3 rd  Order Benedictine Oblates of the Divine Will (BDV- Benedictine Oblatorum Divinae Voluntatis). The purpose for the 3 rd  Order of Benedictine Oblates of the Divine Will is to live the life of Jesus, Mary and Joseph of Nazareth, as described in the writings of the Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta.
