This is David Russell and Your Faith Anew, daily reflections guiding you to live in the divine will.

Today's reflection is from the Book of Heaven by the servant of God, Luisa Piccarreta, October 17th, 1900, Volume 4.

Let us begin in the will and name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

By going so far as to give up His own Son for us, God reveals that He is rich in mercy.

By giving His life to free us from sin, Jesus reveals that He Himself bears the divine name.

'When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will realize that I Am.'" As we listen to Luisa's words today, may we receive whatever light the Lord desires to give our hearts.

Luisa writes, "As my adorable Jesus continued to come, I seemed to see Him in such great suffering as to arouse compassion.

In the age of the Church, Christian intercession participates in Christ's, as an expression of the communion of saints.

In intercession, he who prays looks not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others, even to the point of praying for those who do him harm.

As we turn to Luisa's writing, let us listen with hearts attentive to the mysterious generosity of God's love.

Let us begin in the will and name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

Rejoice in your hope.

Be patient in tribulation.

Hope is expressed and nourished in prayer, especially in the Our Father, the summary of everything that hope leads us to desire." As we listen to Luisa's words today, may we become more attentive to the quiet strength that comes from placing our confidence in Jesus.

Luisa writes, "This morning I felt a little disturbed and all annihilated within myself.

Would you like to see God glorified by you? Then rejoice in your brother's progress, and you will immediately give glory to God, because his servant could conquer envy by rejoicing in the merits of others.

God will be praised." Let us listen with a willingness to let Jesus reach whatever we have kept beyond the touch of his grace.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches in paragraph eighteen thirty, "The moral life of Christians is sustained by the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

These are permanent dispositions which make man docile in following the promptings of the Holy Spirit." Let us listen with quiet readiness of someone who trusts the one who is speaking.

Luisa writes, "I was thinking about the act in which Jesus had the Last Supper with his disciples, and my lovable Jesus told me in my interior, 'My daughter, while I was having supper with my disciples, I was surrounded not only by them, but by the whole human family.

I had all creatures near me, one by one.

And so, worshiping everywhere by their holy actions, the laity consecrate the world itself to God, everywhere offering worship by the holiness of their lives.

There is a beautiful freedom waiting for us when even the most ordinary parts of life are placed completely in the hands of Christ.

Luisa writes: This morning I struggled very much in waiting for my adorable Jesus.

However, while waiting for Him I did as much as I could to unite everything I was doing in my interior with the interior of Our Lord, intending to give Him all the glory and reparation which His most holy humanity gave Him.
