"The Heart that Holds Back Justice"

November 12, 1899 – Volume 3 Luisa writes:  This morning my lovable Jesus came and transported me outside of myself, and I saw as if something was supposed to move from the heavens and touch the earth. I was so frightened that I screamed, and I said to Him: “O please, O please, Lord, what are You doing? How much ruin will come if this happens! You tell me that You love me, and then You want me to be frightened. You have seen it, haven’t You? Don’t do it, no, no! You cannot do it, for I do not want it.”  And Jesus, all compassion for me, told me: “My daughter, do not fear. And then, when have you ever wanted Me to do anything? I should not let you see anything when I chastise the people, otherwise you bind Me everywhere. Well then, I will fortify your heart with fortitude, and I will make as though a trunk arise from it, so as to hold, whatever you see still; and then I will pour so many graces in you as to be able to nourish Myself and My children.”  At that moment, something like a trunk came out of my heart, with two branches at the top in the shape of a fork which, rising up in the air, would catch in between them anything that was about to move so that it would keep still in one single point; and far away it seemed to touch the earth.  Afterwards, I found myself inside myself, and I prayed Him to placate Himself; and it seemed that He would quite surrender, so much so, that He shared with me the pains of the cross. Then He disappeared.                                                                                       - Servant of God, Luisa Piccarreta Buddy Comfort - vocals and guitar from the album, "Brother Sun, Sister Moon", http://www.buddycomfort.com, words and music by Donovan Leitch.Support the show
