1381 Cast all your cares upon the lord....

April 11, 1940: Book 23

Cast all your cares upon the lord.... And if you are troubled, remember His death on the cross. In His immense love He took your suffering upon Himself, He died for your suffering so that it would become less, for His love for you motivated Him to give Himself in order to redeem you. And this love also wants to protect you again from suffering and pain if you remember Him and ask Him to take care of you. And so look upwards full of trust and place all your worries at His heart, for His power is great and His love even greater, and if His love takes hold of you, His will is sufficient to redeem you. Therefore do not fear or doubt, be faithful and courageous; know that the lord Himself is with you if you call upon Him through your thoughts; know that He will hear your prayer and spread His hand over you in protection if enemy power wants to harm you. And your faith will banish all danger, your faith will make you victorious and your faith will give you strength.... For God is.... and God is love.... Love will help you, for it is stronger than the opposing power. And where you have to suffer, you do so for the lord, you place yourselves at His disposal and He chooses you as His instrument.... Your suffering shall give birth to love and faith again, it shall awaken dead souls, your suffering shall be the cause, as it were, for the enlightenment of the misguided and ignorant. Yet if you present your suffering to the lord, He will stand by you and transform your suffering into profound love, and you will patiently and joyfully take up the cross of Christ, you will carry the cross for the lord and help to redeem.... you have become pioneers and lead souls from darkness to light; you increase the number of those who know and make your sacrifice by suffering for the sake of Jesus. And this will be a blessing for you, for countless people are suffering spiritual hardship. Helping them is a labour of love, and if it can only be achieved through suffering and you take this suffering upon yourselves, then this is a labour of love for erring people. And the lord will grant you all favours, He will give you strength, strengthen your faith and make you eager representatives of divine truth....

Amen
