Walking With Jesus- Daily Divine Will Calendar from The Writings of Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta
September 9, 1904
As soon as the soul goes out of the depths of peace, she goes out of the divine sphere. Peace reveals whether the soul
seeks God for God or for herself.- Volume 6
Luisa- 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:
Jesus- “My daughter, as soon as the soul goes out of the depths of peace, she goes 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 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 after all that it was not for God, but for her own self or for some
human purpose. Therefore, when you do not feel calm, call yourself a little to see what actually is in there; destroy it, and
you will find peace.”
Scripture Meditation– 6 Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7).
Prayer Reflection- O Lord we love You, we bless You, and we thank You because You remind us that true peace comes only from You. And we can know we are seeking You alone when we can remain in perfect peace no matter the circumstances. Yet how often we are running around anxious, stressed out, distracted because even in the “holy things”, when we believe we are working for You, we lose our peace. How often we do things just to please others or for our own esteem. And when we meet resistance, we fall apart! You give us the best advice in the Book of Heaven backed by today’s scripture that when we lose our peace, the best thing to do is to step back so that we can examine ourselves with Your grace and help to see what is really going on. To let You come in and replace what is not of You with Your true peace that passes all understanding keeping our hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus! We love You Lord, Fiat!
