The Importance of the Priest in the Divine Will & fusing in the gift

In his short video Kathy shares on the role the priest plays in the Divine Will and fusing in the gift.
The role of the priest in the Divine Will — particularly as understood in the spirituality rooted in the writings of Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta — is both profound and unique. This spirituality emphasizes total union with God’s Divine Will, so the priest’s mission takes on an even more elevated, interior, and cosmic significance. Here’s a clear summary of this role: The Priest as the Living Instrument of the Divine Will In the spirituality of the Divine Will, the priest is seen as a chosen vessel through whom Jesus continues His own priesthood.
The priest is not only an administrator of the sacraments but is called to fuse his human will with the Divine Will, allowing Christ to act through him entirely. When a priest operates in the Divine Will, his actions — even the smallest ones — take on an eternal and divine value, because they are united with God’s own operations.
“When the priest celebrates in My Will, I, Jesus, celebrate in him.” — (Jesus to Luisa Piccarreta, Book of Heaven) The act of “fusing in the Divine Will” is one of the most beautiful and profound aspects of living the life that Jesus revealed to Luisa. It’s both a prayer and a mystical state, where the soul unites entirely with God’s Will so that everything she does — breathing, thinking, acting, loving — is done together with God, in God, and for God. Here’s a clear and faithful explanation: What “Fusing in the Divine Will” means. To “fuse” means to blend completely, so that two realities become one. When a soul “fuses herself in the Divine Will,” she abandons her human will and enters into God’s — as if immersing her soul into an ocean of divine light and love. It’s more than saying “Thy Will be done.” It’s living God’s Will as one’s own life — allowing His Will to act within you, as it acts in Heaven. Jesus said to Luisa: “My daughter, the living in My Will is to fuse oneself in It. It is to enter into It as into one single center, to live of one single Will.” (Book of Heaven, Vol. 11, Feb. 8, 1915).
