The 17 Years
Another book from book by Padre Bernardino Giuseppe Bucci O.F.M. about Saint Annibale Di Francia and Luisa Piccarreta.
Excerpt from Letter 16 of Father Di Francia to Luisa continued on March 8, 1927:
Saint Annibale Di Francia left this beautiful witnessing about Luisa, part of which is here reported:
“...She wants to live solitary, hidden and unknown. For no reason in the world would she have put in writing the intimate and prolonged communications with adorable Jesus, since her most tender age until today, and that still continue who knows until when, if Our Lord Himself had not repeatedly obliged her, both personally and through holy obedience to her Directors, to which she always surrenders with immense violence on herself and also with great strength and generosity, because the concept of holy obedience that she has would make her refuse even an entrance into Heaven, as it actually occurred...
This solitary soul is a most pure virgin, all of God, who appears as object of singular predilection of Jesus, Divine Redeemer. It seems that Our Lord, Who century after century increases the wonders of His Love more and more, wanted to make of this virgin with no education, whom He calls the littlest one that He found on earth, the instrument for a mission so sublime that no other can be compared to it - that is, the triumph of the Divine Will upon the whole earth, in conformity with what is said in the Our Father: Fiat Voluntas Tua sicut in Coelo et in terra.
Excerpt from Letter 16 of Father Di Francia to Luisa continued on March 8, 1927:
P.S. …The proofs are being reviewed by my people. As far as the writings, don’t worry. If I should pass away, my Priests have received from me all the lights that the Lord has given me, and they will continue the work.
