2341 Suffering and tribulation after.... power of faith....
May 20, 1942: Book 32
The effects of people's low spiritual level will be recognizable during this intervention by God.... Everyone will only think of himself and only a few will also think of their fellow human beings in their own suffering and want to help them. And yet help will again be demanded by those who consider themselves powerful, and they will use their power and take measures that will increase the suffering even more, for the weak will not be able to defend themselves and will have to oblige the strong and alleviate their hardship, while they will remain without help even in the greatest tribulation. And this again proves the great lack of love, which was the cause of divine intervention and will not be remedied by it either. But the time will only be bearable for those people who faithfully and trustingly abandon themselves to God, who call upon Him in prayer and ask for His help and grace. They will receive God's support, and no matter how burdensome the external adversity may seem to them, they will not succumb but feel God's protective hand over them. And the power of faith will become obvious, for the believer will have the strength to master the difficult earthly life and need not fear earthly power, whereas people without faith almost threaten to break under the measures of those who try to improve their own fate with the help of those people who are unable to resist them and almost perish as a result. Yet it will become obvious to the world that earthly power is ineffective, for God will let His voice be heard precisely there where He Himself is not respected enough.... where honour and fame alone are desired and faith is only tolerated in appearance. And all believers will be afflicted, and this signifies the beginning of a new era. And in order to make it easy for people on earth to believe, He announces beforehand what is in store for the world so that they will confess Him when everything comes to pass as it has been proclaimed....
Amen
