0588 Direct connection.... breath of God.... heavenly peace.... happiness....

September 18, 1938: Book 13

Behold, the power of the spirit fills your heart.... you must never worry about what is beneficial to your soul. For man continues to receive the food of heaven as long as he desires it. By your desire for it you can recognize how the spiritual forces protectively accompany you through life.... how they are only ever intent on guiding your soul fully and completely into their sphere, and once this has been achieved you will never want to return to earth. Everything earthly will glide past you like a dream and you will only ever hear the voice of the lord when your spirit is awake.... What is offered to you is all the more valuable as no human influence extends to this work, but arises from a direct connection with the spiritual world, and so no counter-expressions of fellow human beings may put you off or make you undecided. Behold, when does a person experience such an obvious grace from the lord without entering into contact with that world.... Those people will only concern themselves with earthly questions and can therefore never gain insight into an area that does not interest them because they close all their senses.... The person who opens himself to the power that wants to flow into him will receive, and the breath of God will touch such a willing child.... This breath is power, is grace and is divine spirit. If you declare your willingness to receive, you will be given unlimited.... And a peace will take possession of you that only the saviour Himself can impart to you. And where heavenly peace beckons to you, you will hardly long to return to earthly life and only long for the moment when the soul is robbed of its outer shell. Take care now that you remain at peace.... that you do not loosen the connection to the divine saviour.... that you only ever strive to come ever closer to Him, and the lord will stand by your side again and again. Whoever loves Him will be loved again with full strength, and what it means to possess the love of the heavenly father cannot be explained to you humans on earth. That is why the lord has already placed the feeling in your heart for your earthly existence, which triggers the bliss of happiness in you.... if you love and are loved again on earth, you will bear the burden of earth much more easily.... How much easier to bear this burden must then appear to you when divine love is given to you. And this love expresses itself so tangibly when you walk joyfully through life and only ever long for the upward. This is only a foretaste of the great bliss that awaits you in eternity. Your longing for the saviour will be indescribable and the fulfilment of this longing will be unspeakably blissful. Anyone who tries to clarify the concept of 'happiness' within himself must give himself the answer that this concept can only be explained in supernatural or supersensible terms.... That no human being can create this satisfying state for himself at will, but that this state of happiness always presupposes the fulfilment of a longing. And so the spiritual forces on the other side constantly bring such teachings to the earthly child, through which the desire is awakened in him to become a partaker of divine love.... The love for the saviour becomes ever more powerful and soon takes hold of the earth child with all its might.... The more intimately he strives towards the lord, the more lovingly he is received, and the radiance of divine love makes him happy and creates such blissful peace that there is nothing more blissful to be found in the whole universe than to always be honoured by the love of the lord.

So let our teachings penetrate you and listen up! In the time of ripeness you will all have to work to bring in the harvest, and so you will be constantly required to work as labourers in the vineyard of the lord and have willingly offered your services to the lord. In this way, everyone has taken on their mission from the lord, and the lord will guide you according to His will; as obedient servants you will carry out what He asks of you. In these times, increased commitment is required, for only love for one another can bring salvation.... the lord blesses every labour of love and is anxious to draw souls to Himself. Nevertheless, you will have to struggle, practice patience and love, for only through good example will you be successful. The call will go out to you to stand up for the name of the lord....
