1102 Teaching the erring.... blessing of suffering.... surrender....

September 21, 1939: Book 20

It is the lord's will that you teach people who are of good will. And it is so infinitely valuable to be instructed by God's grace and thus to be knowledgeable that all those who walk in ignorance of the spirit should be remembered with compassion.... And to preach the gospel to them now is a work of neighbourly love and will one day bring rich blessings, for all these ignorant people are in greatest need of the soul. They walk along empty-hearted, and their earthly plagues are far greater, for they lack the realization of necessity, the hope of help and the comfort of the divine word, and thus their lives are poor despite earthly wealth and apparent well-being. To be left in such misery of the soul is an agonizing state for the latter, and it will gratefully feel every help of a loving person who redeems it from such misery. Time and again God brings people together who can help each other, and therefore every opportunity should be used and mention should be made without hesitation of God's loving guidance, which can be regocnized in all suffering. Everything has the sole purpose of contributing to the human being's ennoblement, the human being should accept all suffering in humble submission and remember his creator, Who allows nothing to happen without a wise intention but Who also loves His living creations dearly and thus all the trials He imposes on them are only ever based on this profound love and should bring about the earthly child's rapprochement with the heavenly father. Every suffering would be gratefully accepted by people if they knew what blessings arise from it for the soul, which is immortal after all.... if it also knew what unspeakably agonizing state it has thereby escaped in eternity and what bliss can be its fate if the suffering has fulfilled its right purpose and brought realization to the human being.... they would surrender to the divine will and accept the suffering without grumbling....

Amen
