4735 Signs of the end time....

September 10, 1949: Book 54

Pay attention to the signs of the times. Look around you with the eyes of the spirit and you will recognize the hour in which you live, you will recognize that night is approaching and that only a few minutes of light are still given to you until night falls. Everything points to the imminent decline, love is growing cold among people and only a few serve their neighbour selflessly. Notice how rarely truth is still to be found amongst people, how blindly they walk along without knowledge of the fate they will meet if they don't change. Recognize from all these signs that the life clock of many people has run out, recognize that the end is near. I cannot give you any other time determination for the end, you must observe the activity and goings-on around you yourselves so that you know when the day will end. I draw your attention to it because I don't want you to be surprised and fall prey to the last days, for you must be told that you must not let yourselves be deceived by the apparent improvement in the conduct of life of individuals; you must be told that, from a worldly point of view, there is no reason for a change but that one has suddenly been created and now the hour of My intervention has also come, which I have constantly announced. Pay attention to everything that happens around you and the sooner you will recognize in which time you live. Just don't lose faith in Me and My love, for everything I do and allow has your spiritual development as its aim, even though it seems cruel to you and you are unable to recognize Me in it. My own can feel safe in My protection, they can trustingly expect My help in every earthly and spiritual adversity; My own need not fear anything, no matter what may come, if only they raise their eyes to Me, thus constantly remain united with Me in thought and deed. And thus you know that there is not much time left until the earth experiences a great upheaval, so prepare yourselves for it; don't pay attention to the world but pay the greatest attention to your soul's life, give your soul the opportunity to mature by looking around you and, where you see adversity, intervene helpfully, also enlighten your fellow human beings about the seriousness of the time and preach love to them, because only love gives them strength to endure the life which still lies ahead of them. And show them by example the effect of a life of love, be strong in faith and active in love yourselves, and your strength will increase and you will overcome everything you are burdened with. You will also survive the most difficult time because I will help you.... And you will persevere until the end....

Amen
