When You Ask Why

From the writings of the Servant of God, Luisa Piccarreta

Sister Luisa wrote:

After this Blessed Jesus came and said to me,

"Daughter, in almost all the events that happen, creatures repeat and and always say: And why? And why? And why? Why sickness? Why this state of soul? Why this punishment? And so many other why's The explanation of the why is not written on earth but in Heaven, and there all, shall read it. Do you know what the why is? It is egoism which gives continual food to self-love. Do you know where the why was created? In Hell. Who was there first to pronounce it? A devil. The effects that the first why produced were the loss of innocence in Eden itself, the war of the implacable passions, the ruin of many souls and all the evils of life. The history of the why is very long. It is sufficient to tell you that there is no evil in the world that does not bear the mark of the why. The why is the destruction of Divine wisdom in souls. Do you know where the why will be buried? In Hell, to make all the lost souls restless forever, without ever giving them peace. The artful ingenuity and deceptiveness of the why is to wage war against souls, without ever giving them rest."
