Luisa Piccarreta, ‘All of Jesus was Nailed in His Father’s
Will, because the Crucifixion was His Father’s Will. How Jesus Wanted to Lose
All His Will to Live Completely in His Father’s to Repair for and to Tear Down Creature’s
Idols’ (heading), illuminates the St. Bernard
tradition, ‘Devotion to the Shoulder
Wound of Jesus’.
St. Bernard's devotion to the Shoulder Wound of Jesus
According to St.
Bernard, he asked Jesus which was His greatest unrecorded suffering and the
wound that inflicted the most pain on Him in Calvary and Jesus
answered:"I had on My Shoulder, while I bore My Cross on the Way of
Sorrows, a grievous Wound which was more painful than the others and which is
not recorded by men. Honour this Wound with thy devotion and I will grant thee
whatsoever thou dost ask through its virtue and merit and in regard to all
those who shall venerate this Wound, I will remit to them all their venial sins
and will no longer remember their mortal sins

All of Jesus was Nailed in His Father’s
Will, because the Crucifixion was His Father’s Will. How Jesus Wanted to Lose
All His Will to Live Completely in His Father’s to Repair for and to Tear
Down Creature’s Idols.
This morning I was thinking of Our Lord
in the act of being nailed to the Cross. While I was compassionating Him,
blessed Jesus and to me.
“My
daughter not only my hands and free feel were nailed to the cross but also
all the particles of my Humanity, of my Soul, and of my Divinity. All were
nailed in my Father’s Will, because the Crucifixion was my Fathers Will.
Moreover, this w necessary because–what is sin but to withdraw from the Will
of God, from all that is good and holy which is given by God, and to believe oneself
is something, and, in the process, to offend the Creator? So, in order to
repair such audacity and to tear down this idol that the creature builds of himself,
I wanted to lose my will entirely and to live by the Will of the Father–at
cost of all sacrifice.”

How Jesus was nailed to the Cross in
the Will of the Father.
This morning I was thinking of Our Lord in the act in which they were
nailing Him to the cross; I was being compassionate with all of Him, and
blessed Jesus told me:
“My daughter, not only my hands and
feet were nailed to the cross, but all the particles of my Humanity, Soul and
Divinity were all nailed in the Will of the Father. In fact, the
crucifixion was the Will of the Father, therefore I was nailed and transmuted
completely in His Will. This was necessary because, what is sin but
withdrawing from the Will of God, from everything that is good and holy which
God has given us, believing to be something of one’s own, and offending the
Creator? And I, in order to render reparation for this audacity and for
this self idol which the creature makes of herself, wanted to dissolve my
will completely and live from the Will of the Father at the cost of great
sacrifice.”
