3362 Supplication in intimacy and hearing....

December 10, 1944: Book 44

Request My grace in prayer and you will truly not need to live in want or remain in spiritual hardship.... Every appeal sent to Me from earth for the sake of the spirit will be heard and I will consider the person according to his strength of faith. But if you pray to Me with sincerity you will carry the firm faith within you that I can and will help you, and then My grace will flow to you to such an extent that you will have to recognize Me by your peaceful composure, for I will carry this peace into your heart as soon as you want to receive Me in it. The intimacy of prayer opens the door to your heart for Me, in which I look around and guide you to further order in it by admonishing you to love and also giving you strength to be active according to My will. And you will be able to do everything, you will reach your spiritual aim if you call upon Me for grace, for My help, My strength, which I have promised you with the words: "Ask and it shall be given you...." The earthly adversity has to oppress you at times so that you will reflect spiritually: The earthly adversity is the means to induce you to intimate prayer, and it will also be remedied if you believe.... But anyone who prays to Me for the sake of his soul will noticeably draw Me to him, I will be close to him and lead him by the hand, I will provide his soul with nourishment which will let it recognize My love. And it will draw strength and power from it, for this is My help that I speak to it and give it the evidence that I hear it. Never again will I leave a person calling to Me in distress, and therefore you may appeal to Me without ceasing, I will hear you and help you, for My love will never cease....

Amen
