2558 Creation - power receiver....

November 23, 1942: Book 33

Nothing is too small for the eternal deity not to take notice of it or not to allow the power to flow to it; and nothing could do without this power from God. And that is why everything must be in connection with the original source of power, with God. There must be a constant redirection and supply of power from God to everything He has created. The created must continuously absorb the divine power, because otherwise it would cease to be. Only under this condition does that which was created by God continue to exist, and only under this condition is the work of the divine creator to be regarded if it is to be recognized as His work. For His love and wisdom gave all created things a purpose and a goal. In order to achieve the goal, it must fulfil its purpose, and this requires a power.... the power of being able to carry out what was given to it as a task. Without a task there is nothing in God's work of creation, consequently everything must also receive His power, and consequently the receiver of power, i.e. every creation, must be in contact with the giver of power so that the transfer from God to the created can take place. And again this allows the conclusion that a constant change of power must take place because nothing has the same purpose but the purposes assigned to the creations are so numerous and different that also different currents of power make these purposes possible and so a perpetual change comes about, therefore the perpetual becoming and passing away is explainable insofar as that the creations only then fulfil another purpose or carry out another activity when they have changed. And that is why not the tiniest creation remains without power supply from God, and this power supply entails a general change, because the power from God lets nothing remain inactive, but produces a constant change. And that is why the connection of God as the creating power with His smallest work of creation may not be denied, otherwise these creations would either not exist or would also remain eternally unchanged if the same supply of power of these creations would always and constantly be part of it, therefore the power necessary for the emergence would not be increased in itself. Power from God must absolutely stimulate activity, therefore have a life awakening effect, so that the work of creation can only then pass away when God withdraws His power from it, because then all activity ceases, therefore a state of death sets in. But there is nothing dead in the universe, in the divine creation, because everything is a recipient of power. Consequently, everything must change within itself, albeit over different lengths of time.... God grasps everything with His power, He leaves nothing out, nothing is too small for Him; for everything that exists is from Him and can never lose its connection with Him. It can only erroneously assume this and in a stage of development reject strength so that it cannot flow towards it to the extent available to it. But it is always flooded by the life force, which also flows towards it without its will to receive it, for this life force is the primordial source of all creation, it is the power from God which conditions every being....

Amen
