I often think of my role in Divine Will as being like a little piece of a huge jigsaw puzzle being put together by God the Father. In writing this blog I try to imagine a scene of the universe on the box while wondering where I fit in. Perhaps I’m a corner or an edge piece and the Lord can find my place easily with little fuss, or maybe I am in the centre somewhere with many other pieces similar to me?

The Celestial Mother teaches the secret of true happiness   “As I was in my usual state, I found myself outside of myself. After going round and round in search of Jesus, I found the Queen Mother instead, and oppressed and tired as I was, I said to Her: ‘My most sweet Mother, I lost the way to find Jesus; I don’t know where else to go, nor what to do in order to find Him again.’ While saying this, I was crying, and She said to me: ‘My daughter, follow Me and you will find the

Have you ever spent ages trying to remember what was the cause of you having the emotional problem or pain you are currently trying to deal with? This comes and goes and sometimes you can handle it and other times not so well and it brings you down. In your prayer time you may go back to your childhood memories and try to find that missing piece that you feel will set you free.
