Sea As Symbol Of The Divine Will

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

The sea as symbol of the Divine Will
– Volume 36I am always I I am always in the Sea of the Divine Will and my pains and bitterness are unspeakable. I let them flow
into It, so that they may be invested by Its Light and turn into Light for me.
Then my sweet Jesus, visiting my little soul, all Goodness told me:

“My blessed daughter, the sea gives
room to all the things that dive into it. It gives room to the fish, keeping them submerged in its waters, giving
them everything they need to survive. The fish are most fortunate and rich because they miss nothing, living
always in the sea; but if they went out of the sea they would lose their lives. The sea receives anyone, taking all
inside its waters. If the sailor wants to cross the sea to go to different regions, the water of the sea receives the
ship, becomes its way, accompanying him, never leaving him alone until he reaches his destination. Everybody
can find a place in the sea. Such is My Will: everyone can find a place in It, and with Unspeakable Love, It
becomes Life of all—the way to guide them, Light to dissolve the darkness of life, Strength to sustain them. It
never leaves them alone. It wants to do together with them whatever they do. O! How saddened It becomes in
seeing Its creature outside of Its Sea, because It sees them so ugly, dirty and dissimilar as to be disgusting.
Therefore the most fortunate ones are those who Live in My Will. They are brought on the lap of Its waves
and, provided that they Live in It, It will take care of all that is needed for their Good.”

Scripture Meditation- If I take the wings of the morning
    and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10 even there thy hand shall lead me,
    and thy right hand shall hold me. (Psalm 139:9-10).

Prayer Reflection- O Lord we love You, we bless You, and we adore You because Your Will is like the sea. Everyone can find a place in the sea, from the fish to the sailors who are guided to their destination. We are little drops in Your big, wide Ocean of Mercy! And while You want to guide all of us to safety like the sailors crossing the sea, You really want us all to be those little fish who are totally dependent on You! To never want to leave You and to know that to lose You would be to lose our very lives. Because Unspeakable Love You are the Life of all! Light to dissolve the darkness of our lives and strength to sustain us never leaving us alone until we reach our destination and You are our destination! Fiat!
