2073 The inner voice....

September 16, 1941: Book 30

Man needs a reminder, for he is very often in danger of forgetting himself and his endeavours, and then he must be warned or admonished against bad or too good actions. And this is also a favour from God, a means of upliftment that God gives him in His love. God does not abandon man to his self-chosen fate. If he threatens to go wrong ways, then the admonisher in him will make himself heard loudly and he will always speak against it and advise him to leave what he intends to do and to endeavour to do good deeds. And the will must now be active to follow this inner voice. Although this will often involve an inner struggle, no spiritual progress can be achieved without a struggle. Listening to the voice within is extremely important and will soon bring the human being's soul a state of maturity, for it is the divine voice which sounds within the human being, which only needs to be heeded and will then also bring certain success. Yet at present this inner voice is paid little attention to, it is drowned out by the voice of the world, for the latter audibly reaches the human being's ear, but the inner voice sounds so softly that it has to be heeded, that everything external has to fall silent if its sound is to be heard. But the voice of God can only be heard by those who want to hear it, the voice of God will never sound loud and audible to the world but will only sound softly and delicately in the heart, and therefore anyone who wants to hear it must withdraw into his innermost being and now pay attention to what God wants to say to him. Listening inwardly is the only thing God requires of people in order to give them information. Very often a person is inclined to heed the voice of the world, and if God does not always want to take the path to people, the voice of the world would soon drown out the inner voice and the shaping of the soul would then be called into question. For it is absolutely essential for the soul's development that the human being makes contact with spiritual strength as far as possible, since the inner voice is likewise the effect of spiritual forces on the human being, and that these, if they express themselves, must also be heard, otherwise their strength will remain ineffective. God's love constantly endeavours to make the human being's path on earth as easy as possible; if the human being makes use of the means of help which are abundantly offered to him by God then it will not cost him a great struggle to ascend. For as long as the human being is willing, God is also willing to give him every help in order to make his time on earth a blessed time, if the human being gratefully accepts God's help and pays attention to what God wants to tell him....

Amen
