APRIL 23 is THE BIRTHDAY AND BAPTISM OF THE SERVANT OF GOD LUISA PICCARRETA (1865), and the 1ST HOLY COMMUNION AND CONFIRMATION OF LUISA (1872) – administered by Archbishop Dottula of Trani, Italy
V30 – 4.23.32– “We Triune God Repeat to Luisa: ‘We Love you, oh! daughter.’ As she repairs Us, so do We Press her to Our Heart; as she thanks Us, praises Us, blesses Us, so do We Keep Repeating: ‘We Thank you that you are thanking Us’, ‘We Praise you for you are praising Us’, ‘We Bless you for you are blessing Us.’ We can Say that We put Ourselves in a Contest with her. Heaven and earth are Astounded that their Creator Engages in a Contest with His Beloved creature.”
THE OIL OF LUISA – THE SEAL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
V17 – 5.4.25 – “…and you Luisa, for the Mission of My Divine Will, as the Holy Spirit shall display His Love in you, Manifesting to you Luisa, His Divine Secrets, The Prodigies of My Divine Will, The Divine Goods It contains, in order to make Happy those who shall Give themselves to Knowing how much Good this Supreme Will contains, to Love the Divine Will and to let the Divine Will Reign in their midst, offering their souls to let the Divine Will Dwell within their hearts, that the Divine Will may be able to form Its Life in them.”
On April 23, 1900 Oil was coming out from Luisa. That day was her 35th Birthday and Baptismal Anniversary. That was also Luisa’s 1st Holy Communion and Confirmation Anniversary.
V3-April 23, 1900 – “This morning, finding myself outside of myself, I saw my sweet Jesus suffering very much, and I prayed Him to share His pains with me; and He said to me: “You too suffer. Rather, I will take your place and you will do for me the office of a nurse.” So it seemed that Jesus placed Himself in my bed, and I, beside Him, began to check His head, removing the thorns which were driven into it one by one. Then I moved on to His body and I visited all His wounds; I dried up the blood, I kissed them, but I had nothing with which to salve them so as to mitigate the spasm, when I saw that oil was coming out from me. I took it and I salved the wounds of Jesus, but with some concern, as I did not understand what the meaning was of that oil coming out from me.
But blessed Jesus made me understand that resignation to the Divine Will is oil which, while salving and mitigating our pains, salves and mitigates the spasm of the wounds of Jesus at the same time. Then, after performing this office for my dear Jesus for quite some time, He Disappeared and I came back into myself.”
In 1888, Luisa became a Daughter of Mary and a Dominican Tertiary with the name of ‘Sr. Maddalena’ (“Luisa Piccarreta, the Little Daughter of the Divine Will” by Padre Bernardino G. Bucci OFM) ‘Magdalene’ (“Saints in the Divine Will” by Padre Sergio Pellegrini) 1882-‘Sister Magdalena’ (“The Sun of My Will” written by Maria Rosaria Del Genio and published by Libreria Editrice Vaticana)
John:12 – “Jesus therefore, six days before the pasch, came to Bethania, where Lazarus had been dead, whom Jesus raised to life. And they made him a supper there: and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that were at table with him. Mary (Magdalene) therefore took a pound of ointment of right spikenard, of great price, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment…Jesus therefore said: Let her alone, that she may keep it against the day of My burial. For the poor you have always with you; but Me you have not always.”
V2-10.28.99 – “My daughter, when a soul is convinced that she has done evil in offending Me, she already performs the office of Magdalene, who bathed my feet with her tears, anointed them with balm, and dried them with her hair. When the soul begins to look within herself at the evil she has done, and she feels sorrow for it, she prepares a bath for my wounds. In seeing her evil, she receives bitterness and feels sorrow for it, and by this she comes to anoint my wounds with a most exquisite balm. From this knowledge, the soul would want to make a reparation, and in seeing her past ingratitude, she feels love toward a God so good arise within her, and she would want to lay down her life to prove her love; and this is the hair which, like many gold chains, binds her to my love.”
V17 – 5.4.25 – ‘The Mission of My Will shall Veil the Most Holy Trinity upon earth. Just as in Heaven there are the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, inseparable from One Another but distinct among Themselves, forming the whole beatitude of Heaven; in the same way, on earth there will be three persons who, because of their Missions, will be distinct and inseparable among themselves: the Virgin, with Her Maternity which Veils the Paternity of the Celestial Father and encloses His Power in order to Fulfill Her Mission of Mother of the Eternal Word and Co-Redemptrix of mankind; My Humanity, for the Mission of Redeemer, which enclosed the Divinity, and the Word, without ever separating from the Father and from the Holy Spirit, Manifested My Celestial Wisdom – adding the bond of rendering Myself inseparable from My Mama; and you Luisa, for the Mission of My Will, as the Holy Spirit will make display of His Love, Manifesting to you the Secrets, the Prodigies of My Will, the Goods It contains, to make happy those who will give themselves to knowing how much good this Supreme Will contains, to love It and to let It Reign in their midst, offering their souls to let It dwell within their hearts, that It may be able to form Its Life in them – adding the bond of inseparability between you, the Mother and the Eternal Word.”
April 23 is also the Feast of St. George – 303 A.D – Who is among those Saints “whose names are justly reverenced among men, but whose acts are known only to God.” – https://bookofheaven.com/prayers/saint-george/
THE QUEEN MAMA MARY SINGS THE PRAISES OF HER LITTLE DAUGHTER
V27 – 1.20.30 – “Now, You Must Know that just as you find, Present in the Divine Fiat, the Creation of the Sovereign Lady and you sing Her praises as Queen, so did She find you Present in the same Divine Fiat and heard your singing. The Mama Mary does not want to be outdone by the daughter Luisa; from that time Our Lady Sang your Praises to Honor that Divine Will that was to Possess you Luisa; and in order to requite your singing, how many times She calls the heavens, the sun, the Angels, and everything, to Sing the Praises of Her little daughter who wants to Live in that Fiat that formed all Her Glory, Her Greatness, Beauty and Happiness.”
GIFT FOR LUISA
TO HAVE JESUS CLOTHE LUISA WITH EVER NEW LIGHT AND GLORY THROUGH THE HOURS OF THE PASSION
V11 – 11.4.14 – The new and continuous way to meditate the Passion – “I was doing the Hours of the Passion and Jesus, all pleased, told me: “My daughter, if you knew what Great Satisfaction I Feel in seeing you repeating these Hours of My Passion – always repeating them, over and over again – you would be happy. It is True that My Saints have meditated on My Passion and have comprehended how much I Suffered, melting in tears of compassion, so much so, as to feel consumed for love of My Pains; but not in such a continuous way, and repeated many times in this order. Therefore, I can say that you Luisa are the First one to give Me this Pleasure, So Great and Special, as you keep fragmenting within you – hour by hour – My Life and what I Suffered. And I Feel So Drawn that, hour by hour, I Give you this Food and I Eat the Same Food with you, doing what you do Together with you. Know, however, that I will Reward you Abundantly with New Light and New Graces; and even after your death, each time souls on earth will do these Hours of My Passion, in Heaven I will Clothe you with Ever New Light and Glory.”
DO YOU BELIEVE IN LUISA?
Luisa Piccarreta The Little Daughter of the Divine Will
Written by Padre Bernardino Giuseppe Bucci, Parish Priest Cappuccino – Parrocchia Immacolata Trinitapoli (Foggia) 1980, With Ecclesiastical Approval
Saint Padre Pio sent many people to Luisa Piccarreta and would say to the people of Corato who went to San Giovanni Rotondo: “What have you come here for? You have Luisa, go to her.”
(…) Aunt Rosaria (Fr. Bucci’s aunt) went regularly to San Giovanni Rotondo, especially after Luisa’s death. Padre Pio knew her very well, and when Luisa was still alive, he would ask Aunt Rosaria when he saw her: “‘Rosa’, how is Luisa?” Aunt Rosaria would answer him: “She is well!”.
After Luisa’s death, Aunt Rosaria increased her visits to San Giovanni Rotondo, in order to receive enlightenment and advice from Padre Pio.
Aunt Rosaria was the one lamp that stayed alight to resolve Luisa Piccarreta’s case regarding the sentence of the Holy Office, visiting various ecclesiastical figures and, in addition, confronting the Congregation of the Holy Office. Once she managed – it is not known how – to enter the office of the Cardinal Prefect, Ottaviani, who heard her kindly and promised to take up the case.
Indeed, a few days later, Aunt Rosaria was summoned by Archbishop Addazi of Trani, who said to her: “Miss Rosaria, I do not know whether to reprimand you or to admire you for your courage. You have faced the guard dog of the Church, the great defender of the faith, without being bitten.”
The conclusion was that permission was obtained to move Luisa’s body from the cemetery to the Church of Santa Maria Greca. Luisa said to my aunt: “You will be my witness” and one day Padre Pio told her point-blank in his Benevento dialect: “‘Rosa’, va nanz, va nanz ca Luisa iè gran e u munn sarà chin di Luisa” (“Rosaria, go ahead, go ahead for Luisa is great and the world will be full of Luisa”). My aunt often recounted this episode, but things were not going well: everything indicated that Luisa would soon be forgotten.
After the venerated Padre Pio’s death, my aunt said one day: “Padre Pio prophesied that Luisa would be known throughout the world.” And she repeated the phrase Padre Pio had said in his dialect.
I answered that there would be no easy solution to the case of Luisa Piccarreta. Indeed, nothing further was said of it in Corato either, and Padre Pio’s words could have been considered merely a comforting remark. But Aunt Rosaria retorted: “No! During my confession Padre Pio told me that Luisa is not a human factor, she is a work of God and He Himself will make her emerge. The world will be astounded at her greatness; not many years will pass before this happens. The new millennium will see Luisa’s light.”
I was silent at this assertion and my aunt asked me: “But do you believe in Luisa?”
I answered her that I did.
LUISA, THE ONE WHO OPENS THE DOORS TO THE KINGDOM OF THE DIVINE WILL
SO THAT OTHERS WHO ARE DISPOSED MAY ENTER
“The Kingdom of God is at hand” (CCC) 541
“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Gospel of God, and saying: ‘The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand: repent, and believe in the Gospel.’” (CCC) 246
“To carry out the Will of the Father Christ inaugurated the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.” (CCC) 247
“Now the Father’s Will is “to raise up men to share in His Own Divine Life.” (CCC) 248
“He does this by gathering men around His Son Jesus Christ. This gathering is the Church, ‘on earth the seed and beginning of that Kingdom.’” (CCC) 249
Matthew 4:17 – “From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say: Do penance, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
From the Book of Heaven V13 –1.25.22 – “…In fact, so that the soul, Luisa may Open the Doors and Become Disposed to Know the Truths that My Will Contains, the First thing is Wanting to Live of My Will, the Second is Wanting to Know It, the Third is to Appreciate It. Therefore, with you, Luisa, I Opened the Doors of My DivineWill, that you might Know Its Secrets, which man had buried inside My Womb, as well as Its Effects and the Value It Contains; and as Many Truths as you come to Know about My Will, So Many Seeds you Receive, and So Many Divine Secretaries Form your Cortege…”
V14 –6.19.22 – “Now, by Wanting to do My Will, the soul, Luisa Opens the Doors of My Volition, and emptying herself of her own volition, she Prepares a little place for Me in which to Place My Goods. And as she Enters into My Will to operate, she gives Me the Occasion to Release New Beatitudes from Myself. Therefore, I Anxiously Await that the soul, Luisa, Come to Operate in My Eternal Volition, in order to Unleash a New Joy from Myself, and Make Myself Known as the God Who is Never Exhausted, and Who Always Has Something to Give to one, Luisa (and those souls Linked to Luisa) who Does My Will.”
V14 –11.11.22 – “…Now I Come to you, Luisa. After My Celestial Mama, I Called you, Luisa, so that all human acts may have the First Seal Done by Me, the Second Done by My Mama, and the Third by one creature of common stock Luisa. My Eternal Love would not be Content, if I did not Raise one of common stock, who Must Open the Doors to those who would dispose themselves to Enter these Gates in order to Live in Our Will…” “…The present and future generations await you, Luísa, to be given back the lost Happiness…”
V15 –1.24.23 –“…Only one who Enters into It (the Divine Will) Expands and Diffuses himself like solar light in the Eternal Flights of My Volition, and Finding My Acts and those of My Mama, he places his own. Look Inside My Will: are there perhaps other acts of creature Multiplied within Mine, Reaching Up to the last act which is to be performed on this earth? Look well -you will find none. This means that No One has Entered. It had been Reserved that the Doors of My Eternal Volition would Only Be Opened to My little daughter, Luisa, so as to Unify her acts with Mine and with those of My Mama, and Render All our Acts Triple, before the Supreme Majesty and for the Good of creatures. Now, since I Have Opened the Doors, others May Enter, provided that they dispose themselves for Such a Great Good.”“…This is why I have Poured So Many Graces in you, Luisa, I Opened the Doors of My Will, I Revealed to you, Luisa, the Secrets, the Prodigies which My Divine Will Contains: to Open Many Ways, so that you, Luisa, Might be Reached by the Echo of My Will, and, losing your own, you Might Live with My Will Alone…”
V16 –8.5.23 –“…So, in order to Form Redemption, I did nothing other than Open the Doors of the Divine Will to My Humanity –Doors, which the first man had closed; and giving It Free Field, I let It Work Redemption in Its Very Womb. Since then, no one else has Entered My Divine Will to Work in It as Master, in Full Freedom, as though being the Owner of It, in order to Enjoy All the Power and the Goods It Contains. My Will in Me is like the soul to the body. And if doing My Will has been the greatest Grace for the Saints, which Entered into them as though by Reflection, what will it be not only to receive Its Reflections but to Enter into It and Enjoy All Its Fullness? Now, just as in order to Form Redemption it was Necessary for My Humanity and for My Human will to Enter into this Divine Will, for the Fulfillment of the “Fiat Voluntas Tua” on earth as It is in Heaven, it is Now Necessary that I Open Again the Doors of My Eternal Will, that I let one creature, Luisa, Enter, and that, Giving her Free Field, I let her do from her greatest to her tiniest act in the All-Seeingness, Immensity and Power of My Divine Will. As you, Luisa, Enter into It to emit your thoughts, words, works, steps, reparations, pains, love and thanksgivings, My Will shall Coin All your acts, and they will Receive the Divine Image, with the Value of Divine Acts, which, Being Infinite, will Be Able to Make Up for All, Reach All, and have So Much Ascendancy Over the Divinity as to Make this Supreme Will Descend Upon earth, Bringing the Goods It Contains…”
V17 – 6.(?).24 – “Now, Everything Exists in My Divine Will, and one, Luisa, who Must Live in It, Must Enclose All creatures, to go through All My Acts Again and Place on them another Beautiful Divine Shade, Taken from My Will, to Give Me the Return of All I Did. Only one, Luisa, who Lives in My Will Can Give Me this Return, and I Await her as the Means to Be Able to Put the Divine Will in Communication with the human, and to Give her the Goods It Contains. I Want the creature, Luisa, as an Intermediary, who, going through the Same Path which My Humanity Covered in My Will, May Open the Door of the Kingdom of My Will, which had been closed by the human will. Therefore, your Mission, Luisa is Great, and it takes Sacrifice and great Attention.”
V18 –2.18.26 – “All these little Flames that you, Luisa, see in the Endless Sea of My Divine Will are the Symbol of the Secret Beatitudes, Joys and Happinesses which It Contains. I Say Secret because, since I have not yet Manifested the Fullness of the Knowledge which the Eternal Will Contains, nor are there the right dispositions in creatures in order to Manifest Them, all these Beatitudes remain ‘ad intra’ inside the Divinity, as We are Waiting to Put Them Out for the one, Luisa, who would be born, Live and Carry out her Life in Our Will, with No Interruption, because, her will being One with Ours, All the Divine Doors are Opened and Our Most Intimate Secrets Revealed. The Joys and the Beatitudes are Placed in Common, as much as it is possible for a creature, and as much as she is capable of. So, you see, My daughter, Luisa, Each Manifestation that I Make to you, Luisa, about My Will is a Beatitude Released from the Womb of the Divinity, which not only makes you Happy and Disposes you more to Live in My Will, but Prepares you for More New Knowledges.”
V20 –12.22.26 – “And so, when you, Luisa, occupy yourself with My Divine Fiat, if you speak, if you go around in It, you put Us in Feast, because We Feel that it is one who Belongs to Us—We feel that it is Our daughter, Luisa, that speaks, that goes around, that works in the Field of Our Will. And for one’s own children, Doors are Left Open—no apartment is closed for them, because what Belongs to the Father Belongs to the children, and in the children is Placed the Hope of the Long Generation of the Father. In the same way, in you, Luísa I have Placed the Hope of the Long Generation of the Children of My Eternal Fiat.”
V21 -4.18.27– “The same for you, My daughter, Luisa: as you do your First Acts in My Divine Will, the other creatures receive the Right to Enter into It and to Repeat your acts, in order to receive the same effects. How necessary it is that even just one alone do the First Act. In fact, it serves to Open the Door, to Prepare the raw materials, to Form the Model in order to Give Life to that Act. Once the First is Done, it is easier for others to imitate it. “This happens also in the low world: one who is the first to form an object must work more, sacrifice himself more; he must prepare all the materials that are needed; he must make many trials. And once the first is done, not only do others Acquire the Right to do it, but it is easier for them to repeat it. However, all the glory is of the one who did it first, because if the first had not been done, the other acts, similar to it, could never have existence. Therefore, Be Attentive in Forming your First Acts if you Want the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat to Come to Reign Upon earth.”
V22 –6.8.27 – “The same happens for one, Luisa, who comes to Live in Our Will: The Doors are Opened, Our Secrets are Revealed, she is made aware of All Our Most Beautiful Works…”
V24 –5.26.28– “See then, the Divine Order: all asking for one thing. Among these who ask there are some who want to do My Will, others who do It. All this is Braided together, and they Knock at the Doors of My Divine Will—they repeat the Knocking, and some Knock strongly, some slowly. However, there is always someone who Knocks and asks that the Doors be Opened, so that My Will May Descend to Reign Upon earth. And since everything is Established and Ordered by the Divinity, It Awaits the one, Luisa, who must give the Strongest Knock, who, forcing the Doors with Invincible Strength—the very Strength of My Divine Will—will Open Wide the Doors, and with her Sweet Chains of Love will Bind the Eternal Will to Make It Come to Reign in the midst of creatures. She, Luisa, will be like a Bride who, Bejeweling the Groom with her Loving Chains, will Carry Him as though in Triumph into the midst of creatures. And just as the Holy Virgin put an end to the night hours of the Patriarchs and Prophets, and Formed the Dawn to Make the Sun of the Eternal Word Rise, so will this one, Luisa, Form the Dawn to Make Rise the Sun of the Fiat Voluntas Tua on earth as It is in Heaven. “Do you think that My Will, that has Made Itself Known with so much Love and has Manifested so much Interest in Wanting to Come to Reign Upon earth, Pouring Its Sorrow out with you, Luisa, has done this without anyone praying to It? Ah, no! no! The Knocks of My Church have been Continuous, and I Myself was Knocking in those Knocks, but I used them to Knock at the Door of the Divine Fiat which, tired of hearing them Knocking at Its Divine Doors, has Used you, Luisa, to be Knocked More Strongly; and Opening the Doors to you, Luisa, It Made you, Luisa, Share in Its Knowledges…”
Fiat!
