Peace Reveals

From the Writings of Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta

Vol. 6 – September 9, 1904

As the soul goes out of the depths of peace, so does she go out of the divine sphere. Peace reveals whether the soul seeks God for God or for herself.

Continuing in my usual state, I felt disturbed because of the absence of my adorable Jesus. Then, after I struggled very much, He came and told me: “My daughter, as soon as the soul goes out of the depths of peace, so does she go out of the divine sphere, and finds herself either in the diabolical or in the human sphere. It is peace alone that reveals whether the soul seeks God for God or for herself, whether she operates for God, or for herself, or for creatures. In fact, if she does it for God, the soul is not disturbed; it can be said that the peace of God and the peace of the soul combine together, and the boundaries of peace expand around the soul, in such a way that everything converts into peace, even wars themselves. But if the soul is disturbed, be it even in the holiest things, it shows that after all it was not for God, but for her own self or for some human purpose. Therefore, when you do not feel calm, call yourself aback a little bit, to see what really is in there; then destroy it, and you will find peace.”

Scripture Meditation- And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:&)

Prayer Reflection- We praise You, we love You and we adore You Lord for You are our Peace! Thank you for showing us that when we lose peace, we leave the divine sphere back into the human or even the diabolical Peace is a sign that we operate for You and not just for ourselves or for others without You! We can be disturbed even in what we think are the holiest things. Let us always call You when we do not feel calm letting You destroy what is not of You and we will find peace!
