The 24 Hours of the Passion of Our lord
In communicating his qualities to the soul, God immerses it in his Will, and this immersion is best facilitated by God’s drawing the soul into Jesus’ Passion where it offers itself in reparation to the Father for the sins of mankind. Luisa’s censor librorum Hannibal di Francia affirms that the Luisian meditation on the Hours of the Passion constitutes a «new method» and «totally new approach», which she was the first to introduce to the Church, as it offers reparations that «extend and multiply themselves to infinity». In point of fact, Jesus reveals to Luisa that as the soul meditates on the «Hours of the Passion» that he dictated to her, it assumes his own humanity, intercedes for souls, offers the Father reparation and satisfaction, and averts his divine justice. Such a soul procures «new graces», a «new life of grace» and all the blessings Jesus desires for creatures.
As the soul assimilates itself to Jesus’ Passion, it progressively embraces the acts of all creatures of all centuries — through the aforementioned grace of bilocation — and restores to creation God’s divine harmony. Here the soul «co-redeems» with Christ in an eternal dimension between heaven and earth that embraces all creatures of the past, present and future. The soul that meditates these hours, vicariously immolates itself through, with and in Jesus for the sins of mankind and, like Jesus, acquires «the merit as if all were saved». And for every word of these hours that the soul attentively meditates, God grants to it a soul. Inasmuch as the soul of Jesus’ Blessed Mother was unceasingly united to that of Jesus through a continuous bilocation, the soul that mediates on these hours also reenacts what Jesus’ Mother did on earth.
