2780 God's radiance of love.... His word....

June 19, 1943: Book 37

God's direct emanation to an earthly child, which manifests itself in the reception of His word, is a visible sign that the living creations are in closest connection with their creator, that therefore God will never ever let go of what He has created, that it certainly appears to be isolated in creation but is always and constantly guided by His will, cared for by His care and nourished by His strength, thus remains inseparably connected to Him. The human being is not able to recognize the gift of strength and divine care until he is fully aware of his affiliation to God, but then God sometimes makes Himself evident, that is, He visibly manifests His emanation of strength through the extraordinary transmission of spiritual gifts which provide information about His love, wisdom and omnipotence and His divine working. God expresses Himself by allowing His word to flow to an earthly child which has profoundly recognized that it belongs to God and now places itself devotedly at His disposal. And from this it can be seen what great value is to be attached to such proclamations because they testify to God's direct activity. Admittedly, people who want to deny the connection between the creator and His living creations will also oppose this working of God with unbelief; they will never recognize the flow of strength from the spiritual kingdom and consequently the spiritual results will not be proof for them either that God is in closest contact with His living creations. But no more compelling proof can be given to them either; man has to gain the realization himself, for which he is offered enough opportunity if he just looks around attentively. But He cannot express Himself more obviously than when He Himself descends to earth in the word, i.e. when He imparts His divine word directly to an earthly child in order to enlighten humanity through it. He speaks to people like a father to his children, He instructs them like a teacher to his pupils, He brings Himself so close to them that they must recognize Him if only they are willing.... But He does not force Himself on them.... For His gift is extremely precious and He wants it to be desired. And this is why He cannot convince people who do not want to recognize His extraordinary working. He constantly gives and His gift can be recognized as soon as the human being's will does not oppose it before he has tested it. For the receipt of gifts from above is an unusual process which has to presuppose a power which has not yet been fathomed earthly; and the human being has to recognize a spiritual power which is the originator of that which is imparted to people as the word of God. And this strength is God's direct emanation through which He reveals Himself to those who want to recognize Him.... He obviously shows Himself to people, that is, His working can be recognized in every gift which now comes to earth, for every proclamation breathes the profoundest love of God, Who only transmits His word to earth in order to help people in greatest adversity.... And where love is recognizable, God Himself is also there, and where God Himself is, His radiance of love can also be felt.... God reveals Himself through His word....

amen
