"The Glory Hidden in Ordinary Things"

NEW AUDIOBOOK! "LIVING IN DIVINE WILL - Returning to the Purpose of Our Creation" click here **9/11/1906 – Volume 7** Luisa writes, As I was in my usual state, I found myself with baby Jesus in my arms in the midst of many people, and He said to me: “My daughter, all the works, words and thoughts of creatures should be sealed with the mark: ‘Gloriam Dei, Gloriam Dei.’ And everything which is not sealed with this mark remains obscured and as though buried in darkness, stained, or at the most, as something of no value. So, the creature does nothing other than pull out darkness and abominable things from herself, because by not operating for the glory of God, the creature runs away from the purpose for which she was created – she is as though lost from God, and left alone with herself. God alone is light, and it is through God that human actions acquire value. Now, what is the wonder if the creature, by not operating for His glory, remains buried in her own darkness, and gains nothing from her toils – on the contrary, she loads herself with heavy debts?”  To our great bitterness, we looked at all those people as though buried in darkness. In order to distract blessed Jesus from that bitterness, I would clasp Him and kiss Him, and almost wanting to play with Him, I would say to Him: ‘Say with me: I give such power to the prayer of this soul as to concede what she asks of Me.’ But He would not listen to me; and I, wanting to force Him to say it with me, would renew the kisses, the embraces, and would repeat: ‘Say it – say it together with me…(the same words written above).’ I did so much that it seemed He said them, and I found myself inside myself, surprised at my daringness and madness; and I felt ashamed of myself.                                                                                       – Servant of God, Luisa Piccarreta Buddy Comfort – vocals and guitar from the album Brother Sun, Sister Moon, www.buddycomfort.com, words and music by Donovan Leitch.  Support the show
