Meditations on the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ

THE HOURS OF THE PASSION OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST 

By Luisa Piccarreta , little daughter of the Divine Will. (In process of beatification)

These are reflections, meditations, visions and moments of the Passion of Our Lord as seen and lived by Luisa. 

They are divided in twenty four hours, however for the purposes of meditation, they can be meditated at any hour of the day. 

Great merit and abundant graces are received by souls who accompany Jesus in his holy passion. These meditations bring the sufferings of Jesus to life, and grant great knowledge of his love for us.

Luisa Piccarreta was born in Corato Italy on April 23, 1865, and died on March 4, 1947. During 64 years she was confined to bed with a mysterious suffering, time which she spent writing about the Kingdom of the Divine Will.
