4153 Relationship of a child with its Father...

October 26, 1947: Book 50

You shall become My Own and never separate yourselves from Me again, you shall enter into unity with Me, hand yourselves over to Me and desire no more than My love, and if you have reached this stage of renouncing all earthly things, you can relinquish your life without qualms, for then you will have passed your final test on earth and will be ready for the spiritual realm. But what do you need to achieve this degree of love for Me which will make you blissfully happy forever? You must have the relationship of a child to its father, then you will not desire anything else but to be united with Me, for the child only desires to be with the father because it feels his paternal love and knows that it is well protected by it. The child is weak and requires protection and support; it requires gifts which only the father's love can bestow upon it, so it trustingly comes to him and asks him full of childlike humility, and the father will not deny the child anything because he loves it. You must all feel like My children and have this confidence in Me so that you can present all your worries, hardships and afflictions to Me and faithfully wait for Me to take them from you, to remove them and let your fate on earth be bearable for you. And thus you forge a bond with Me, your Father of eternity, you entrust yourselves unto Me, and therefore feel so close to Me that you speak to Me without inhibition and also make an effort to gain My pleasure and thereby My love again, and you will be aware that you, as My children, possess My love and this awareness will give you inner peace and strength in abundance. And yet you will not become arrogant, you will remain profoundly faithful and be showered with My grace.... Then I will be able to take effect in you, I will be able to speak to you through My spirit and you will be able to hear Me.... the connection with Me will lead to an abundance of blessings, for then you will belong to Me and I will never ever let you leave Me again. The union will have taken place which should be all peoples' goal on earth so that they will be able to enter the kingdom of peace when their life on earth is over....

Amen
