3484 Apparent improvement in living conditions....

May 19, 1945: Book 45

Don't let yourselves be distracted by apparent improvements in living conditions but know that the time of adversity is not yet over, that it only continues in other forms and has to be overcome by you humans who still need much suffering and trials if you want to change. The human being's will only ever strives to promote the body's well-being, and he also uses all his strength to turn his will into action. But the more you are captivated by earthly striving the less he thinks about his soul, and since it only lives on earth for a short time it cannot be left in its inertia but again and again it has to be stimulated by adversity and suffering to think about its task on earth, and therefore the adversity cannot be over yet and difficult days will still follow.... For God completes His plan, He never ceases to care for the souls which are in danger of losing themselves completely. But people don't recognize His care, they don't see His love in the suffering which affects them, for they are blind in spirit and only have eyes for the earthly world, for everything that is pleasing to the body but detrimental to the soul. And until they practice love themselves they will not recognize God's love either, for light will only shine in them when they themselves are capable and willing to love. And suffering is also necessary for this that people ignite the spark of love within themselves and let it become a bright flame, that they remember their neighbour's adversity in suffering and try to remedy it and thereby shape their hearts into love. And therefore do not let your view be clouded by what happens in the world.... remember the soul and humbly accept all that is still granted to you....

Amen
