4637 Blessed activity for the kingdom of God.... exhortation to busy activity....

May 13, 1949: Book 53

Promote Me and My kingdom incessantly and don't let your failures discourage you. You yourselves must feel permeated by My strength and therefore always and constantly receive My word, and the strength flowing towards you will impel you into activity, you will have to speak wherever the opportunity presents itself to you, out of the fullness of your heart. Then you will also be suitable labourers for My vineyard, you will be active for Me and My kingdom, you will speak to your fellow human beings in My name and also direct their eyes into that kingdom from where richest blessings for their souls come. No earthly activity equals that activity, no earthly success can outweigh spiritual success, and no earthly work will be as blessed and meet My approval as the work for My kingdom. And thus you also know that you are not walking uselessly on earth if you apply yourselves to this activity, you also know that the most beautiful task has been assigned to you and that you only have to be diligently active if you want to gain My love and satisfaction. But it is by no means a condition for you, you will not be forced into this activity, otherwise it would lose its value and could not earn you a blessing for your soul. Inner joy and the desire to serve Me and your fellow human beings should drive you, and then the spiritual work will also make you happy and give you inner peace, even though, earthly speaking, it will bring you little advantage. But My kingdom is not of this world.... Always keep these words of Mine in mind and you will understand that spiritual work will never exist or be recognized before the world, that it has nothing in common with the world and its activity, that it has to be carried out quietly and diligently and yet will result in far greater success than any earthly activity. And therefore don't tire, don't become lukewarm and indifferent, consider the hardship which spiritual work requires and remain sprightly servants to Me who always fulfil My will and serve Me in diligent activity and whom I will therefore bless now and in eternity....

Amen
