0487 Appearance of the lord pictorial....
June 28, 1938: Book 10
In indescribable light.... visible only to a God-like being, the supreme being hides Himself and can only visualize Himself to the children of earth, for an earthly being would never ever be able to bear this fullness of light.... Therefore the lord has decided to give His fullness of light a form which enables you human children, when you are inflamed with deepest love for Him, to see Him tangibly before you.... but even then only as an appearance of short duration and so shadowy that afterwards only a dream-like memory of it remains for you. Any more would be intolerable for you, who still dwell on earth, for it would make you unfit to fulfil your earthly duties.... No human being, since it is still so far removed from a God-like state, can endure the direct light of the deity without being completely destroyed in it.... Yet the lord constantly dwells on earth close to the human being, often unrecognized but perceptible to His own through His gracious activity.... And this abundance of grace also occasionally expresses itself to the earthly children in such a way that the lord lets them feel His greater than great love in the form of an apparition brought close to them.... but that these earthly children have to make themselves worthy of this love in purity of heart and fullest observance of His teaching, but that they are thereby equipped with an extraordinary power for the time of their earthly life and should use this again to win the salvation of the souls of their dear fellow human beings....
