Christ Who Lives In Me

Walking With Jesus- Daily Divine Will Calendar From The Writings of Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta

September 10, 1901
To unite our actions with Jesus is to continue His life on earth- Volume 4

Luisa- I continue to do what blessed Jesus taught me on the 4th of this month, even though sometimes I get
distracted. But when sometimes I forget, it seems that Jesus places Himself on guard in my interior and does it
Himself for me. On seeing this, I blush and immediately I unite myself with Him, and I make the offering of
what I am doing at that moment. Be it even a gaze, or a word, I keep saying: ‘Lord, all the glory which creatures
should give You with their mouths, but do not, I intend to give You myself with my mouth, and I impetrate for
them to make good and holy use of the mouth, by uniting myself always with the very mouth of Jesus.’ Now,
while I was doing this in all my things, He came and told me:

Jesus- “This is the continuation of my life, which was
the glory of the Father and the good of souls. If you persevere in this, you will form my life, and I yours; you
will be my breath, and I yours.”

Luisa- After this, Jesus placed Himself in order to rest upon my heart, and I upon His Heart, and it seemed that
Jesus would draw His breath from me, and I would draw mine through Jesus. What happiness, what joy, what
celestial life I experienced in that position! May the Lord be always thanked and blessed, who uses so many
mercies with this sinner.

Scripture Meditation- 20 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.  (Galatians 2:20).

Prayer Reflection- O Lord, we thank You, we bless You and we adore You because even our smallest acts- our words, our glances, our thoughts, our very breath can be offered to You for Your Glory and the good of souls. To do so is the very continuation of Your Life which You so want to form in each one of us! For us to persevere each day in union with You as You continue Your work in our hearts. We can do this with every thought, word, and action in the name of all and for all who are not even thinking of You, let alone striving to live in union with You. Lord, let us resolve to unite all of our actions today with You, trusting that it is indeed not I who live but Christ who lives in me! Fiat!
