0643 Struggle for willpower.... submitting to God's will....
October 28, 1938: Book 14
See how powerful the urge for perfection is in you once you have taken the right path.... You will then listen to the soul out of inner impulse, you will help it if it seeks to unite with the spirit of God. And you will use all means to ascend, for the voice of the heart speaks within you, which I make sound Myself so that you will find Me. And thus your path on earth in constant contact with Me will be an easy and blessed one, for in the midst of all the dangers of the outside world this voice will keep reminding you of your actual task.... Behold, My child, the voice resounds so often in your heart and admonishes you to be constantly spiritually active. And again and again you receive teachings which are intended to mature you for your destined earthly activity. High demands will still be made of you but you will grow in will and faith and thus you will always receive the strength from above which you need for your earthly as well as spiritual work. If the state of your body so often wants to keep you on earth and you find it difficult to find the way upwards, then remember that a struggle strengthens and increases willpower and that the soul must therefore also be subject to such moods, precisely for its perfection. The heavenly paradise will make you completely forget the difficult days on earth and you will also understand why everything had to be the way it was.... And you will thank the creator, Who guided you in His wisdom. Behold, My child, blessed is he whose will is able to subordinate itself to My will.... to whom the struggle on earth brings this success and who always seeks his highest satisfaction in the fulfilment of My will.... His days on earth will also be easy for him, for his confidence is great that My will guides him correctly.... Always endeavour to put yourselves into the state in which you surrender to Me without will, then you will grasp My promises and become worthy of them, for you humans still resist My instructions too much.... You still very often want to go your own way and do not completely abandon yourselves to the guiding hand of your father. The slightest resistance will make your life on earth considerably more difficult, for then the father in heaven will have to admonish you and send you disagreements so that your soul will heal. Therefore, in every ailment always only see the loving care of the father, Who wants to make you submissive so that you remain in His will, Who finally introduces you to all glories if you submit to Him unreservedly....
Amen
