FEAST OF CHRIST THE
KING – KING OF MERCY
Luisa:
I was thinking about today’s Feast – that is, the Feast of Christ the
King; and my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My
daughter, the Church does nothing but
intuitively grasp what She must know on my Divine Will and how Its Kingdom must
come. Therefore, this Feast is the prelude of the Kingdom of my
Divine Fiat. Indeed, the Church is doing nothing other than honoring
my Humanity with those titles which, by right, are due to It; and when She has
given Me all the honors that befit Me, She will move on to honor and to
institute the Feast to the Kingdom of my Divine Will, by which my Humanity was
animated. The Church proceeds step by step, and now She institutes the Feast to
my Heart, now She consecrates the century, in all solemnity, to Christ the
Redeemer, and now She moves on, with greater solemnity, to institute the Feast
to Christ the King. Christ the King
means that He must have His Kingdom, He must have peoples worthy of such a
King. And who will ever be able to form for Me this Kingdom if not my Will?
Then, yes, will I be able to say: ‘I have my people – my Fiat has formed it for
Me.’ Oh! if the leaders of the Church knew what I have manifested to you about
my Divine Will, what I want to do, Its great prodigies, my yearnings, my sorrowful
heartbeats, my anguishing sighs, for I want my Will to reign, to make everyone
happy, to restore the human family -
they would feel that in this Feast of Christ the King is nothing other than the
secret echo of my Heart which, echoing in them, without their knowing it, has
them institute for Me the Feast of Christ the King in order to call their
attention and reflection. ‘Christ the King…. And His true people – where
are they?’ And they would say: ‘Let us hasten to make His Divine Will known;
let us let It reign, that we may give a people to Christ the King, whom we have
called so. Otherwise, we have honored Him with words, but not with facts’.” (Vol. 25, 10/28/1928)
Divine Will – In 1994, on
the day of the Feast of Christ the King, in the main Church, Archbishop
Carmelo Cassati, in the presence of a large crowd, including foreign
representatives, officially opened the
beautification cause of the Servant of God, Luisa Piccarreta.
Divine Mercy
(Saint Faustina) – “Write this: before I come as
the just Judge, I am coming first as the King of Mercy.” (Diary, #83,
told to St. Faustina in 1934)
