0673 Commending yourself to the grace of the lord....

November 17, 1938: Book 14

People so often neglect to commend themselves to God's grace and therefore make life on earth considerably more difficult for themselves. It would be much easier to defy all onslaughts if people would remember that their strength is not sufficient without God's help and that they nevertheless find the greatest support through the lord's love. Who believes not to need this support must struggle unspeakably hard in earth life and will nevertheless not have nearly the success as an earth child recommending itself to God's favour, which is not only dependent on itself in all situations of life but is carefully looked after and protected by the love of the father. If you humans consider this, all timidity must depart from you.... Believing in the lord's ever-ready help, you must take up the battle on earth with full confidence and also look forward to the difficult times with carelessness, for no harm can ever befall you if you, as weak children, fervently implore the father for protection. Therefore, never lose confidence, never lose faith in the heavenly father's tireless love and patience and you will always overcome even the greatest trials to the benefit of your soul.... and also be relieved of all earthly hardship if only you always wait in full trust for the lord's help. There are certain laws which, in His wisdom, the divine creator commanded you to fulfil for your time on earth.... Everyone who complies with these laws, i.e. who endeavours to live in divine order, will also always be worthy of finding the living connection with the father, he will therefore be able to draw the necessary strength and refreshment from the eternal source of strength at all times and thus will not need to go through life fearfully and despondently, for the lord bestows His grace upon him, and every event is only ever permitted in order to be overcome with faith and trust, so that the person's soul matures and his faith becomes strong. For those who seek the lord are always His children, and the lord lovingly draws close to them and guides them safely around all cliffs of life.... And you will emerge unscathed from all dangers, tribulations and afflictions, you will be powerful through the lord's grace and His strength will permeate you, and you will stand firm in all battles which you cannot be spared in earthly life and which are absolutely necessary for the soul's advancement. And if you know this, do not start anything without having placed yourselves at the mercy of the heavenly father, and life will be easier for you....

Amen
