She Is Still In The Grotto

From The Writings of Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta

December 26, 1900 She is still in the grotto.

As I continued to see the Holy Baby, I saw the Queen Mother on one side and Saint Joseph on the other, adoring the Divine Infant profoundly. Being all intent on Him, it seemed to me that the continuous presence of the Little Baby kept them engrossed in continuous ecstasy; and if they could work, it was a prodigy that the Lord operated in them; otherwise they would have remained motionless, unable to attend to their external duties. I too did my adoration, and then I found myself inside myself.

Scripture Meditation14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father. (John 1:14).

Reflection- O Lord we bless You, we adore You, and we thank You because as the world throws away the wrapping paper and thinks Christmas is over, Our Lady is still in the grotto, adoring You profoundly. You are the Word made Flesh who dwelt and and dwells among us and every day in the Divine Will is Christmas. You tell us in Volume 16 today that My daughter, for one who does my Will it is always Christmas. As the soul enters my Will, I am conceived in her act; as she goes on performing her act, I carry out my Life; as she completes it, I rise again, and the soul remains conceived in Me, carries out her life in Mine, and rises again in my own acts. See, then, how Christmas holidays are for those who prepare themselves and place themselves in my grace once a year, and so they feel something new about my birth within themselves. But for one who does my Will it is always Christmas – I am born again in each one of her acts. So, would you want Me to be born in you once a year? No, no, for one who does my Will, my birth, my Life, my death and my resurrection must be a continuous act, never interrupted; otherwise, what would be the difference, the immeasurable distance, from the other sanctities?” So let us adore You today with Our Lady in the Grotto and may You be born again and again in our acts living it all from birth to life to death to resurrection day after day for Your Glory and for the good of all!
