Keep It Simple

Walking With Jesus Daily In The Divine Will- Based On The Writings of Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta and Sacred Scripture

Book of Heaven. Vol. 7, July 31, 1906. Jesus speaks about simplicity.

Luisa:

Continuing in my usual state, blessed Jesus came for a little, and embracing me wholly, He told me:

Jesus:

“My daughter, simplicity is to virtues as condiment to foods. For a simple soul there are neither keys nor doors to enter into Me, nor are there for Me to enter into her, because from all sides she can enter into Me, and I into her. Even more, to better say it, she finds herself in Me without entering because, by her simplicity, she comes to resemble Me, who am most simple Spirit, and only because I am most simple I am present everywhere and nothing can escape my hand. A simple soul is like the light of the sun – in spite of any fog, or of the fact that its rays pass through whatever rubbish, it remains always light, it gives light to all, and it never changes. In the same way, a simple soul, no matter what mortification or displeasure she may receive, does not cease to be light for herself and for those who have mortified her. And if she sees evil things, she does not become stained, but remains always light; nor does she change, because simplicity is that virtue which most resembles the Divine Being. Only through this virtue can one participate in the other divine qualities, and only in the soul who is simple are there no impediments or obstacles for Divine Grace to enter and to operate. In fact, since both one and the other are light, one light easily unites and transforms into the other. ”

Luisa:

But who can say what I comprehended about this simplicity? I feel as though a sea is in my mind, and I am able to manifest but a few little drops of this sea, and those disconnected among themselves. Deo Gratias. (Divine Will App).

Scripture Meditation- 12 For our boast is this, the testimony of our conscience that we have behaved in the world, and still more toward you, with holiness and godly sincerity, not by earthly wisdom but by the grace of God.  (2 Corinthians 1:12).

Prayer Reflection- O Lord we bless You, we thank You, and we adore You because You have revealed so much to the childlike and simple and not to the learned and wise (Matthew 11). And it is because the more simple we are, the closer we are to You and Your Light that You so want to shine in and through everyone! And no fog, no evil no “rubbish” as you put it and boy are we surrounded by rubbish these days, can get in because in simplicity we are always light, Your Light, nor do we change but we remain constant in You! O Lord, give us the grace of the virtue of simplicity so as little children we can easily enter into You, Our Father, Our Savior, and Our Friend! Blessed Mother, keep us under Your Mantle and keep us there every time we want to complicate things in our own human wills!
