POINT # 11 (GRATITUDE FOR EVERYTHING)
RAPID GROWTH IN THE DIVINE WILL

Dear Divine Will Family,
This I think is my favorite subject. Gratitude!! How much we owe to God for all that He has done for each of us. Did you know that when He foresaw the fall of Adam, He almost decided not to create us at all! What was the use of creating a creature as a constant companion who would not love Him enough to remain a constant companion, but would turn his back on God shortly after creating him?? But, and this is the only way I can explain this in my words, Jesus said to His Father, “Father, it will be alright. I will go and redeem this sin, and look, Father, look into the future, You will have the time with your creatures that You want so badly. Your Kingdom will come and it will be as You always planned! The creatures will be fully in Your Will and they will be Your constant companions filled with Your love and gratitude always!”

So, we owe God gratitude for going ahead and creating all of us. And being His legitimate children through the Gift of Living in His Holy Will, we certainly owe Him an immense amount of gratitude! So many called and yet so few chosen! We are the few! How can we not constantly be thanking Him that we are a part of the few? And I believe that these few are the remnant that Our Lady speaks about in Her messages to Fr. Gobbi! So many messages She gave to Fr. Gobbi contained information about the Kingdom of God coming, which will be the Triumph of Her Immaculate Heart!

POINT # 10 (Constant Companion)
RAPID GROWTH IN THE DIVINE WILL

Dear Divine Will Family,
God created all of us to be social beings. We all seem to need people around us or at least knowingly close to us. Even those who live alone know that there are those who love them, are going to come and visit, or at least will give them a call. People who have absolutely no one is the saddest of all souls. Even in suffering, knowing we have those who care, those who will suffer with you, those who will compassionate you, brings some joy to the situation.
God created us to be “like” Him. He also loves company, a companion, someone who loves Him, who wants to be with Him to comfort Him or bring joy, gratitude, praise, and blessings. But, mostly gratitude and love. God is a very social Being, or why would He have created Heaven? There He has millions of souls gathering around Him, or even in Him. He loves their companionship….but mostly, He loves our companionship. The souls in Heaven live fully and completely in His Holy Will. We on the other hand have to use our human wills to will ourselves to live in His Holy Will. Even though we give our human wills to God to absorb and place in His Holy Will, our human will is always active…or else how or why are we always stepping out of the Divine Will? So, we still have to will ourselves to do what is good and holy, like giving our will at all times to the Divine Will. So, souls in exile can glorify God immensely more than those in Heaven because we must use our human wills to choose to glorify Him and to love Him and to be a constant companion to God.

POINT # 9 (Detaching from Everyone and Everything)
RAPID GROWTH IN THE DIVINE WILL

Dear Divine Will Family,
When you were in 1st grade, were you not taught the answer to “Why did God create me?” The answer was “to love Him, to know Him and to serve Him!” And the rest of that answer was and to love Him above all things! The answer today, as a child of His Holy Will is “to love Him, to understand Him, and to be His legitimate child.” He doesn’t want servants, not even friends and not adopted children. He wants to be a Father to legitimate children, who love Him and who want to understand Him. To love Him is something we are raised from tiny to do, but to love Him the way He deserves to be loved, we must love Him with His very own Will. Living in His Holy Will makes that very easy to do, and it is through living in His Holy Will that we can begin to understand Him. No one ever talked to me growing up, or otherwise, about understanding God. The concept was never in any of my religion classes, or even taught to me by my very holy and very Catholic mother. I never thought about understanding God until I met Tom Fahy and Luisa Piccarreta! What a very blessed day that was in my life! Continue reading “”

POINT # 8 (Doing things with Human Purpose)
RAPID GROWTH IN THE DIVINE WILL

Dear Divine Will Family,
I pray all are well and healthy. We pray for each of you daily, but if you need any specific prayers, please let us know. As a family, you are not alone. We are here and we love each of you so much. We will put your specific intention in our daily Rosary.

Point #8 is another very important point to ponder. And it is good for all of us to examine ourselves when pondering these points. Do I do most things with a human purpose? Am I after what I can achieve through the acts I do in the Divine Will?? Am I concerned about my own sanctity? Am I striving to live in the Divine Will for my own glory/sanctity? We all have some self-interest in many things, but getting rid of your ego and all self-interest is the only way to live in the Holy Will of God! Our interest must be what interest God now, not what interest us!

POINT # 7 OF
RAPID GROWTH IN THE DIVINE WILL

Dear Divine Will Family,
Point #7 is one of the hardest for us to get a handle on. It seems things in this world only want us to think of ourselves all the time. The world wants us thinking about our weight, our face, our skin, our love life, our personality, etc., etc., and so on and so forth!

I am only sending out this one point in this Snippet because it is one that we should ponder and try to over come almost more than all the rest. If we could get over thinking of ourselves, and seeking our own holiness and where we will be when we go to Heaven, what do I seem to be to my cenacle members, what do people think of me, etc., etc., and so on and so forth. We all do it; we all want the respect of others and to look good in other’s eyes. This is normal for today’s society. They have trained us this way. It is always all about me, me, me! So, don’t blame yourself, it really isn’t your fault. Even our parents wanted us to be someone respected by all their friends and the world, etc.
But we know that this kind of thinking is not going to make us holy, it is not leading to our sanctification, which is what we all desire with all our hearts. Although we seem to revert back to how we were raised or how we are to be and act and look as taught by the television!

POINTS 4, 5 AND 6 OF
RAPID GROWTH IN THE DIVINE WILL

 

Dear Divine Will Family,
Well, how is your Lent going so far? I pray it is as you wish, doing everything for the love of God and for His Kingdom to come. I was told one time when I was sending money to the poor, “Ann, remember always to pray for the Kingdom of God to come and reign, for when it does, there will be no more poor souls, or suffering souls, or any sins; all will be peace, joy, love and abundance!” I have always remembered that and I know that God awaits His Kingdom with great anticipation. Can you imagine a world without sin, or suffering, but only love and joy and abundance?

I was blessed to see the Kingdom reigning on earth one time. God allowed me a peek of It one day after Holy Communion and I have never forgotten it. The joy and love were so overflowing in everyone that I could not hold back the tears of joy and happiness. It fills the whole inside your body and soul! There is nothing on earth but holiness, happiness, joy, peace, sharing, laughing, love, and so much abundance that there is no sweat of the brow any more. All creation is in order because man is in order, and so the earth knows exactly what it was created to do and it gives back 100-fold of what was planted in it.

Married men and women are able to see and understand God reigning in each other and they are always giving thanks and adoring the God within each other. And they gave themselves so completely to each other that there was nothing left to give…all of themselves! They knew they were also giving all of themselves to God, Who reigned in each other.

And I understood this so much better one day when I heard a talk on the writings of Great Pope Saint John Paul II. He explained that when the Blessed Mother gave Her Fiat to the Holy Spirit, Her Spouse, She was giving Her entire self to Him because through this giving of Herself completely to Her Spouse, She was giving Herself completely to God and in this way She was totally Consecrated to God. And that is how married couples are Consecrated to God is through the total self-giving of themselves to each other! The two become one, as God intended! And I can’t tell you the love, joy and happiness that I experienced in these married souls who were living their marriage as God created them to.

May all be as God Wills it in our lives! And may He be the One for whom we do everything this Lent! What a future He has planned for mankind!!

We love you all so very much and keep each of you in our prayers! God bless each of you abundantly and keep you all safe and healthy!
