2848 Characteristic of truth.... working of love.... enlightenment....

August 12, 1943: Book 37

love brings you closer to the truth, for wisdom is born from love. Yet love must be unselfish, it must be divine, because truth is also of divine origin, thus the divine can only be gained with the divine. And thus anyone will become wise who only kindles love within himself and lets it flare up into a bright flame.... but God imposes this condition on people that they first become active in love in order to receive divine wisdom; that they turn the love they feel in their heart into action; that they give and help where it is needed, that they try to make their fellow human beings happy with everything they themselves are happy about, everything they possess and their neighbor lacks. Their love should be willing to sacrifice, then God will reward such love by enlightening their spirit, by equipping them with rich knowledge, by leading them out of the dark night to the brightest light.... Towards Himself, Who is the eternal light, the eternal truth and the eternal love.... When love enters your life, which is pure and selfless, you also enter the spheres of light, because from the very beginning you are also introduced to knowledge, unconsciously at first, but soon you will become aware of a power which was previously unknown to you, a power which urges you towards God and which emanates from God.... It is the strength of the divine spirit which works in you as soon as you are active in love.... which gives you information about things which are beyond your knowledge, which imparts wisdom to you according to the extent of your activity of love. This strength is not outwardly recognizable, yet it cannot be denied, it constantly gives to the love-distributing person, it enlightens him and thus constantly increases his knowledge, and since this knowledge is pure truth it must lead to God, Who is truth Himself....
