3161 Spreading the truth....

June 18, 1944: Book 41

I will give you what you ask for if it is good for the salvation of your soul.... But the truth is the most necessary thing for the salvation of your soul, the truth is the surest path to Me and thus also to eternal life. And therefore I will not deny any of My living creations the truth if it desires it and asks Me for it. Yet how I convey it to a person, how it is most beneficial for him, I truly know best how to judge. Yet you should not doubt My love, My wisdom and My omnipotence. I truly only have the goal of drawing you to Me, and only those who know the truth can reach this goal. Thus I must also convey the truth to you according to your receptivity and willingness. Whether you are able to hear it within yourselves, whether you come into possession of it through fellow human beings or whether you receive the truth from the scriptures.... you will always be able to draw on it if only you hunger and thirst for the truth, which is your source of life. For it is always I Myself Who offers you the truth if you ask Me for it and have the rock-solid trust that I will answer every prayer which is not for earthly things but for the soul. Why should I let you walk in darkness when I Myself am the light and want to shape you into beings of light as long as you live on earth?.... Believe in Me that My love cares for you and guides you, regard everything in life as a means which My wisdom uses to lead you upwards towards the original light.... and believe that I am able to do everything, that I can also guide the most ignorant into the purest knowledge. And believe that only your prayer, your will for truth is necessary that you will also be given it. Every spiritual exchange of thoughts promotes your development, and every silent thought is a further step towards Me, Who is eternal truth Myself. For what longs for truth in you is My share, it is the spark in you which has emanated from My spirit in order to become effective in you. And this spiritual spark will not let you go astray but will enlighten you if you ask for it. Therefore you need not ponder and doubt but only hand yourselves over to Me with complete faith, then I will guide your thoughts correctly so that you will certainly recognize the truth, so that you can easily distinguish it from error and thus discard the latter. And you will be free from the pressure which error exerts on your soul because it binds it and the spirit cannot develop freely in it. Truth alone will lead you to the goal, to eternal union with Me, for only through truth will you recognize Me and then you will love Me such that you will make an effort to please Me. But if you walk in error then the path to Me is not really recognizable and you deviate from it and the goal vanishes from your eyes. Yet do not worry that you might not be pleasing to Me if you pursue the truth.... I Myself place doubts in your heart so that you may rid yourselves of them in silent prayer to Me, for only when you doubt do you search, and once you have absorbed the pure truth within yourselves will the doubts also disappear and your faith will be strong and unshakeable. And the more you are held captive by error, the more you will have to struggle for the truth and the more doubts will arise in you. Yet you should never doubt My love, and this love will stand by you in every spiritual adversity, it will always and constantly teach you and guide you towards the pure truth until you are convinced of it and can truly believe in it....

amen
