3977 Working in love.... strong faith.... bodily support....

February 15, 1947: Book 49

You can do good in every situation in life if your heart impels you to do so. And thus the coming time will also bring you into situations where you are in need of help yourselves, yet you will always be able to practice love for your neighbour, you will always be able to give if you are willing to give, for in accordance with your will to love you will also receive help from above, and what you give will be returned to you many times over, spiritually as well as earthly, and you will be able to alleviate much hardship with My support, for I want you to gain a firm foundation to preach the gospel to your fellow human beings in order to draw their attention to the blessing of working with love, and then you will be able to work for Me and My kingdom, as is your task. And your fellow human beings will be able to recognize the truth of My word in yourselves, they will be able to strengthen their faith through constant help from Me as soon as they are also willing to fulfil the commandment of neighbourly love and their will thus turns towards Me. The hardship will be so great that you will be able to recognize every help as extraordinary, for your earthly situation is not enviable and yet can be bearable for every individual person who only hands himself over to Me with complete faith and trustingly places his fate into My hands. For I will take care of him conspicuously, as I have promised you, I will help him earthly and spiritually, I will guide him along paths which will always be successfully followed because I walk beside him and truly know where I will lead him.... I will give you what you need earthly to maintain your body, but just as I will also feed you spiritually every day so that you will never be without strength. Therefore, anyone who believes will have no need, and anyone who unreservedly gives himself to Me no longer needs to worry about his physical sustenance, for I will take care of him. Yet you must firmly imprint My word on your memory, you must gain strong faith by imagining that I will never tell you an untruth and that you can therefore firmly rely on what I have promised you through My word.... My constant protection and shelter and most loving care for My children.... Strive towards Me and all adversity will stay away from you. Only one thing is necessary that I have profoundly faithful representatives of My word on earth who confirm My word themselves through their faith, for through such profound faith fellow human beings can also be won over for Me and My kingdom, and the number of My own can increase.... And thus your activity in the forthcoming time is so extremely important that you can be certain of all support from Me and need not fear any adversity yourselves, even though you will lose everything through My will, for I can always return to you what I take from you if only you firmly and steadfastly believe....

Amen
