P. 28
It’s the deeper meaning of the Ascension. The apostles asked
“is the kingdom coming now”, Jesus could have brought it then
through his dying and rising, but he said to go and spread the
Good News start going around all the towns and villages of the
world- in effect start doing rounds! Jesus words usually have
deeper layers. It’s like the command to Adam to “be fruitful and
multiply” it was not, at that stage, about having children with
Eve, that did not come later until after the fall. But it was a
command to recognise everything in the universe and by the
Divine Will operating in Adam to give God an ‘I love you” for
each thing and on behalf of each person that would exist. In 2
Corinthians 4:15 St Paul speaks about grace being multiplied
by our prayers.
As mentioned earlier, Adam failed to do this so Jesus had to
come and do this in his hidden life. A Catechism reference
implying Jesus did rounds is 2602- it says when he prayed he
was conscious of all the acts of people. xviii This is hidden in the
gospel- the “Great Comma” R Rohr speaks about. It took the
church hundreds of years to establish the theological scaffold to
understand these things, but praise God if we surrender we can
grow and join Jesus in his hidden life and put an “I love you” on
all his rounds also.
The Key to understand the rounds (in fact all the Divine Will) is
always to remember to see things from the Trinity's
perspective. Why did the Trinity make us- not for sympathetic
reasons- as said before- but to get an equal “I love you” back
on its Infinite, Perfect and Eternal scale.
Mary and Luisa did these rounds for all acts done by us; thus
there was a “triple seal” as Jesus explained to Luisa. This is the
way the Trinity acts. Luisa and Mary had to do this in a
mystical manner as a human being cannot live that long to go
