4413 Do not hide from Me....

August 22, 1948: Book 51

Do not hide from Me, for I will always know how to find you. No-one will be able to escape from Me, for My arm reaches far and My eye sees sharply; but I want you not to fear Me but to trust Me, to openly confess where you stand in order to be able to help you in times of need. For I am a God of love, not a God of wrath. But he who fears Me and hides himself from Me has not yet recognized Me. But who hides from Me?.... Anyone who believes he can deceive Me, who does not confront Me in utmost truth, who speaks and acts differently than he thinks, who wants to appear before Me as My child and yet turns his eye towards the world. For he hides his true face under a mask. Yet I know him and only want to warn him so that he will drop the mask and turn to Me with open eyes, asking for help so that he will remain truthful.... Do not hide your face from Me, you who believe in Me but do not desire to hear Me Myself, but who accept the evidence of My love, who do not reject Me but do not seriously strive for Me either. Are you not afraid that I will find you and uncover what you want to hide from Me, even though I am a God of love and not a God of wrath? Are you not afraid of the truth that will one day come to light? Why do you hide yourselves and not openly confess Me? Since I am obviously talking to you? You hide behind walls which are supposed to represent My kingdom, but you do not seek Me behind them, for you know that I am outside.... What are you looking for? Is the wall only meant to hide you from Me? My gaze penetrates it and thus I see you after all, and I want to draw you out of hiding because I want you to come to Me, to confess Me before those who likewise keep themselves hidden.... I will bless those who approach Me with their heads held high, who do not fear the world and do not fear Me as God, but love Me and therefore approach Me with complete trust.... I will bless those who only acknowledge Me as lawgiver and place no power of earth above Me, I will bless those who desire to hear Me and to whom I can express Myself in direct form.... But those who hide I do not respect, but I know where they hide, and so they shall know that they cannot deceive Me, that I see through all walls and know every hiding place.... that I will not be deceived, for I see into the hearts of men and pay no attention to what the mouth speaks. But let anyone who understands Me take these words to heart, for My love sends them to anyone who needs them.... because I don't want to lose anyone but want to win all who believe in Me....

Amen
