Journey Into The Divine Will-Divine Will Calendar Day By Day

The irresistible need of Jesus to make known to the soul how He loves her and all the gifts with which He keeps filling her.

So we know and believe the love God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. (1 John 4:16)

Volume 11-March 21, 1914

Jesus continues: “My daughter, I love one who does my Will so much, that I cannot manifest to her everything – or everything at once – of how much I love her, the grace with which I keep enriching her, the beauty with which I keep embellishing her, and all the goods with which I keep filling her. If I manifested to her everything together, the soul would die of joy, her heart would burst in such a way that she could no longer live on earth, but, in a flash, would take flight toward Heaven. However, I feel an irresistible need to make Myself known, as well as the love I have for her. It is too hard to love, to do good, without making oneself known. I feel my Heart as though crack, and unable to resist so much love, I keep manifesting to her, little by little, how I love her and all the gifts with which I keep filling her. And when the soul feels filled to the brim, to the point of no longer being able to contain them, in one of these manifestations of mine she will disappear from the earth and will emerge within the bosom of the Eternal One.” And I: ‘Jesus, my Life, it seems to me that You exaggerate a little bit in manifesting to me where a soul who does your Will can reach.’ And Jesus, compassionating my ignorance, smiling, told me: “No, no, my beloved, I do not exaggerate. One who exaggerates seems to want to deceive; but your Jesus knows not how to deceive you – on the contrary, what I have told you is nothing. You will receive more surprises when, once the prison of your body is broken and you are swimming inside my bosom, the point that my Will made you reach will be openly revealed to you.”

Prayer Meditation- O Lord, Your love for us is so great and full of surprises always! Let us fly to You to Heaven as You show Yourself to us little by little and glory to glory!

Do You Want To Be Well? —

Do You Want To Be Well?

Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures

Tuesday of the Fourth Week of Lent

Do You Want To Be Well?

“Because your soul has been purified of the anguish of

doubts, you now have been given the power to rise to the heavenly

Father and be immersed in the delightful and joyful contemplation

of the Holy Trinity. (Jesus) (October 22-23, 1963)

Today’s Readings: Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your mat, and walk.”
Immediately the man became well, took up his mat, and walked. (John 5)

Prayer Meditation- Lord today we read about a man who was ill for a long time. He was defeated, could not even get himself to the cure. And You asked him, as You ask us now. do we want to be well? That seems like an absurd question – of course we want to be well. And yet, after the man is cured, You tell him something else that is interesting. You tell him that he is now well and not to sin anymore. May we use this time, as we progress toward Holy Week, as a time of purification from our attachments, some of which we never knew were so strong, and let us abandon ourselves to Your Mercy and Your Never Failing Love!

Journey Into The Divine Will- Divine Will Calendar Day By Day

Jesus and Saint Joseph console father in his difficulties.

Is not this the carpenter’s son? Is not his mother called Mary? And are not his brethren[h] James and Joseph and Simon and Judas? 56 And are not all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all this?” (Mathew 13:55)

Volume 5, March 20, 1903

As I was outside of myself, I saw father all in difficulty with regard to the grace that he wants; and once again, blessed Jesus with Saint Joseph were saying to him: “If you get down to work, all your difficulties will disappear, and will fall off like fish scales.”

Prayer Meditation- A short reading for today but appropriate for the Solemnity today, Lord! O Lord, in our rounds let us visit the workshop with St. Joseph and the Holy Family and make all of their acts our own for Your Glory and for the good of all souls past, present, and future.

Solemnity of St. Joseph

Go to Joseph

Your most worthy patron is Saint Joseph. Do not forget him, invoke him every day. He will gladly help making our Cause a success. (Jesus) (April 10, 1962)

Today’s Readings: Joseph, son of David,
do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home.
For it is through the Holy Spirit
that this child has been conceived in her.
She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus,
because he will save his people from their sins.” (Matthew 1)

Prayer Meditation- Lord, help us today, in this time of world crisis and fear, to go to St. Joseph, protector of the Holy Family and terror of demons with faith and trust that through his intercession and through the Flame of Love of the Immaculate Heart of Mary You will act. Fiat!

Jesus explains the easiest and most profitable way to suffer.

 I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.(Romans 8:18)

Volume 4, March 19, 1901

This morning, as I was all oppressed and in suffering, much more so, because of the privation of my sweet Jesus, after much waiting, I saw Him for just a little and He told me: “My daughter, the true way of suffering is in not looking at whom the sufferings come from, or at that which one suffers, but at the good that must come from those sufferings. This was my way of suffering. I looked neither at the executioners, nor at the suffering, but at the good I intended to do by means of my suffering, also for the very ones who gave Me suffering. And looking at the good that was to come to men, I disregarded everything else, and with intrepidness I followed the course of my suffering. My daughter, this is the easiest and most profitable way to suffer – not only with patience, but with unconquered and courageous heart.”

Prayer Meditation- O Lord, it can be so hard to see the good that comes from suffering united with You but yet we know that you bring all things together for good for those who love You (Romans 8:28). Let us take solace and comfort that there is no suffering that You do not understand and that You will never let us go!

I Was Blind But Now I See —

I Was Blind But Now I See

Fourth Sunday of Lent

I Was Blind But Now I See

Even among yourselves, some well-intentioned souls make serious

sacrifices from time to time. Yet, they are blind because of

earthly goods and material interest. (Jesus)July 11, 1975)

Today’s Readings: One thing I do know is that I was blind and now I see.” (John 9)

Prayer Meditation- Today Lord in the Gospel we read about the man born blind and how You opened his eyes so he can see. Lord, You have opened our eyes to You and made us new creations. And yet, so often, we can slide back into spiritual blindness due to earthly goods and material interest. We lose our ability to see only You! Open the eyes of our hearts Lord that we would not be blind but would see as You see!

Effects of fusing oneself in Jesus.

But he who is united to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. (1 Corinthians 6:17)

Volume 12-March 18, 2017

I was praying, fusing all of myself in Jesus, and I wanted each thought of Jesus in my power, so as to be able to have life in each thought of creature, to be able to repair with the very thought of Jesus; and so with all the rest. And my sweet Jesus told me: “My daughter, my Humanity on earth did nothing other than link each thought of creature with my own. So, each thought of creature reverberated in my mind, each word in my voice, each heartbeat in my Heart, each action in my hands, each step in my feet, and so with all the rest. With this, I gave to the Father divine reparations. Now, everything I did upon earth I continue in Heaven, and as creatures think, their thoughts pour into my mind; as they look, I feel their gazes in mine; so, as though a continuous electricity flows between Me and them, just as the members are in continuous communication with the head; and I say to the Father: ‘My Father, I am not the only one who prays You, repairs, satisfies, appeases You, but there are other
creatures who do within Me what I do. Even more, with their suffering, they make up for my Humanity, which is glorious and incapable of suffering.’ By fusing herself in Me, the soul repeats what I did and continue to do. But what will be the contentment of these souls who have lived their life in Me, embracing together with Me all creatures, all reparations, when they are with Me in Heaven? They will continue their life in Me; and as creatures will think or will offend Me with their thoughts, these will reverberate in their mind, and they will continue the reparations which they did on earth. They will be, together with Me, the sentries of honor before the divine throne; and as creatures on earth will offend Me, they will do the opposite acts in Heaven. They will guard my throne, they will have the place of honor; they will be the ones who will comprehend Me the most – the most glorious. Their glory will be all fused in mine, and mine in theirs. So, let your life be all fused in mine – make no act without letting it pass into Me; and every time you fuse yourself in Me, I will pour in you new grace and new light, and will make Myself the vigilant sentry of your heart, so as to keep any shadow of sin away from you. I will guard you as my own Humanity, and I will command the Angels to form a circle around, that you may be defended from everything and from everyone.”

Prayer Meditation- My Adorable Jesus, may our feet journey together, may our hands gather in unity!

O God Have Mercy On Me A Sinner —

O God Have Mercy On Me A Sinner

Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures

Saturday of the Third Week of Lent

O God Have Mercy On Me A Sinner

My beloved Jesus, I want to repent of my sins and to love You

more than any repentant sinner. My beloved Jesus, in the future, I

ask that not one day goes by without my love causing me tears of

repentance. Humble me, Lord Jesus, every moment of my life, so I

always see myself as poor and sinful. (Elizabeth) (1961-1962)

Today’s Readings: But the tax collector stood off at a distance
and would not even raise his eyes to heaven
but beat his breast and prayed,
‘O God, be merciful to me a sinner.’
I tell you, the latter went home justified, not the former;
for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled,
and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.” (Luke 18)

Prayer Meditation- Lord today we read in the Gospel about two men in prayer. One prays to himself about all of his “achievements”, stuck in works and self- righteousness. The other comes humbly to You, a sinner in need of mercy! Lord, let us return to You, as the first reading from Hosea encourages us to do (Hosea 6). Lord strip us of all that gets in the way of perfect union with You- perfect love casts out fear! (1 John 4:18).

Journey Into The Divine Will-Divine Will Calendar Day By Day

What Jesus has manifested about His adorable Will are divine births. His sorrow when He sees that these truths are not well kept.

And you show that you are a letter from Christ delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts. (2 Corinthians 3:3)

Volume 25, March 17, 1929


This is why I have given you so much grace, I have administered to you the words, I have directed your hand while you were writing – so that the children of my truths might not be suffocated and as though buried in your soul. And so that you might not omit anything, I placed Myself near you, I held you in my arms, like a tender mother holds her little daughter, and now I attracted you with promises, now I corrected you, now I reproached you severely when I saw you reluctant to write the truths which I had manifested to you; because I had the interest that they were lives and children of mine, and that, if not today, tomorrow they would come out to the light. You cannot comprehend my sorrow in seeing the negligence of the ones who have lost the three volumes of my Divine Will. How many truths were not inside of them? How many lives have they not suffocated, forming the tomb for my children which, with so much love, I issued from my paternal womb? On the part of those who have had no care to the point of causing them to be lost, I feel that they have broken the plan of my Divine Will and Its long story, spoken to you with so much love in order to make it known; because every time I would set Myself to tell you what pertained to my Fiat, the ardor of my love was so great, that I felt I was renewing the act of the whole Creation, especially when, in the ardor of Our love, man was created.”

Prayer Meditation- O Lord this passage deals with the loss of Luisa’s writings and the trials and tribulations Luisa went through. We are so thankful we can read all 36 Volumes now! Let us not be an obstacle to Your Will and Your Grace but may we always have Your Word written on our hearts by the Spirit of the Living God! Lord Jesus please read and meditate with us so that we would lean and live in Your Most Holy and Divine Will!


Not Far From The Kingdom Of God —

Not Far From The Kingdom Of God

Today’s Consuming Fire Meditation- – A Daily Dose of the Flame of Love Diary Served Up with Today’s Scriptures

Friday of the Third Week of Lent

Not Far From The Kingdom of God

Fervently desire the coming of My Kingdom for yourself

and for all the souls. When you rest at night, examine your day.

What have you done for My Kingdom to arrive?” (Jesus) (April 20, 1962)

Today’s Readings: And when Jesus saw that he answered with understanding,
he said to him,
“You are not far from the Kingdom of God.”
And no one dared to ask him any more questions. (Mark 12)

Prayer Meditation- Lord, in tough times we can all feel pretty far from the Kingdom. But like the first reading in Hosea, You so want to call us back to You and heal our land. Are we ready to have nothing to do anymore with idols, with strange gods? Lord, help us keep our eyes fixed on You and on what really matters- loving You with all our hearts, minds, souls, and our strength and, through that love that You give us, help us to love our neighbor as ourselves. Lord may we love with Your Love as You live in us- Christ beside me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ within me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me (St. Patrick)
