3813 Fate according to the will....

June 27, 1946: Book 48

The fact that you are in adversity and distress of body and soul is not hidden from My knowledge, but neither is your spiritual direction, the will of your heart for good or evil. And this determines the course of your life, it determines the events which fatefully approach you, it also determines the effect of fellow human beings' actions carried out in evil will, as well as My intervention according to My will. For I try to remedy the soul's adversity, I try to bring it salvation because I know about the consequences of spiritual adversity in eternity, about the lightless state which causes the soul far greater torment than the greatest earthly adversity. If the human being's will is good then the soul will require less harsh means of education and its course of life will not present such great trials if it is granted a certain amount of time to mature. Yet at the end of this redemption period many souls will only have to pass a short test of life, and understandably this will be more difficult due to its brevity, so that the soul will reach the goal of maturity. This is the consequence of their long rebelliousness towards Me, which did not allow them to embody themselves on earth sooner; and since, according to My eternal plan, the end of this redemption period has been timed, the duration granted to the last human beings for embodiment will become increasingly shorter and correspondingly more difficult. Yet the final goal is the same and can be reached by every soul if it earnestly strives for perfection. Yet even these souls embodied in the last human beings of this earth carry different wills within themselves, partly towards Me and partly away from Me, and this diversity of will also determines the different fates of life and the effect of the deeds which the will gives birth to. People will have to bear the heaviest suffering and are in danger of breaking, and yet people can also live amongst them who are full of strength and for whom suffering does not seem unbearable.... For I Myself determine the severity of suffering, the severity of hardship according to people's will, which I know and try to change precisely through this hardship. And because humanity's will shall increasingly turn away from Me in the last days, the tribulation must also become greater if a success for the souls is still to be achieved. Yet I will not consider any person unjustly, for I know every individual's disposition and take it into account. And therefore, I provide My own with particularly rich gifts of grace in the last days, with extraordinary strength and greater than great love, because I know how difficult the last test of earthly life is for them, which they shall pass in order to be able to be close to Me.... I know every person's will and bless him as soon as he is good. I bestow every conceivable favour upon the person and help him until the end in order to then fetch him to Me into My kingdom.... And I will shorten the days of adversity for the sake of precisely My own, I will end the time of tribulation with the day of My coming in the clouds so that My Word will be fulfilled, which promises bliss to those who persevere until the end....

Amen
