2433 Love of God.... mystery of divine love....
August 3, 1942: Book 33
Words cannot express how loving and supremely good the eternal deity is. It becomes difficult for people to believe this in view of the many sufferings which befall the earth, because it is incomprehensible to them that they, too, are only the expression of divine love, that they are caused by love and that they are only intended to shape the human being such that he can receive the divine emanation of love in all its fullness. God's love is unchanging, it always and forever remains the same, and if its effect is painful, then the human being himself is the cause of this, who lives differently than is required in order to be able to receive divine love in its blissful power. However, if the human heart has been moulded in this way, then the soul is extremely happy, then it is close to its original state.... For it has emerged from God's love, it is a product of His divine will to love. This is why God never lets go of that which is from Him but constantly stands by it, He tries to shape it and lead it to its original state in the same way as it once turned away, thus became apostate from divine love. This process of transformation is again only the effect of God's eternal, unchanging love.... Everything that exists emerged from God's will to love, and therefore divine love can never turn away from His created beings, even if they believe they are separating themselves from Him. It cannot leave the spiritual that has become apostate to Him to its own devices, otherwise God's love would be changeable and unstable. And therefore everything God does for the purpose of regaining it must also be based on His love, even if it gives the appearance of unkindness. God's wisdom also determines which form God uses in order to achieve the return of the fallen spirit to Himself. Where wisdom and love co-operate there must also be success. And this success will also inevitably occur if the being gives up its own will and unconditionally surrenders to God's love.... if it therefore reduces its distance from God of its own accord, that is, if it no longer resists God's love. And the being also gives up its resistance as soon as it recognizes love in God, as soon as the belief comes alive in it that the creator of all things is love in Himself and it feels itself, as His creature, seized by His love.... which can only happen when it lives in love itself and thus begins to comprehend the mystery of divine love.... Then it strives towards this eternal love in order to one day completely unite itself with the one from Whom it emerged....
Amen
