The First Steps in the Divine Will

St. Paul gives us a glimpse of living in the Divine Will in Galatians 2:19 "I am crucified with Christ, it is no longer I who live but Christ in me." Again in 2 Corinthians 4:11, "that the life of Jesus may appear in our mortal existence."

And why wouldn't we want Jesus Christ to live in us? Hebrews 1:3 says, "He is the very reflection of God's glory, and the exact imprint of God's very being, and he sustains all things by his powerful word."

Jesus told Luisa in 1915: "How can a creature as incapable as he is, be my image and likeness? Only in my Will can he accomplish this. By making my Will his own, a person can achieve at the level of the divine; and by repeatedly performing divine acts, he gradually becomes like Me, eventually given to the point of being transformed into my perfect image... The only thing that enables a person to resemble Me, is my Divine Will. It is for this reason that I am now so interested in having souls make my Will their own, and thereby attain the true goal for which they were created."

Jesus explains what he wants us to do: "My child, in order for a person to be able to forget themselves, everything they do or have to do, must be done as if I want to do it in them. Only in this manner is a person able to forget themselves."

This is challenging and takes some time to remember and put into practice, but it is a step forward into the Divine Will.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. We love you. Save souls. Amen.
