4745 Trials to strengthen faith....

September 21, 1949: Book 54

So that you don't become lukewarm in your striving you are repeatedly exposed to trials which are meant to raise your eyes to Me, because you must not distance yourselves from Me, for only with Me do you move forward, only My presence gives you strength, and only with Me can you resist the one who wants to ruin you. But the danger of forgetting Me because of the world is very great.... But if you want to be labourers in My vineyard, if you want to be active for Me and My kingdom, then you must constantly be in contact with Me, you must constantly seek My closeness anew, you must know that only My presence will give you strength in order to carry out spiritual work, which will be a blessing for you and your fellow human beings. And thus you should always be aware of My presence in order to constantly communicate with Me through which you receive the strength you need. If you are in spiritual or earthly distress then turn to Me in thought and draw Me to you, you desire My presence and also feel it if you turn to Me in heartfelt prayer and entrust your distress to Me. Then you will also establish the right relationship between children which will make you receptive for My emanation of love which comes to you in the form of My word and is visible evidence of My presence. And through My word you receive strength which you constantly need for your upward development. I will not leave you in adversity.... you should believe and therefore trustingly turn to Me; you should be so convinced of My presence that you will only pay little attention to worldly events in the certainty that I will regulate everything for you and that you will therefore pass the tests which I repeatedly impose on you to strengthen your faith. As long as you are weak in faith every adversity will worry and depress you, but if you let your faith grow stronger then everything difficult will pass you by without tormenting and worrying you, for again and again I call out to you: Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will refresh you.... Always remember this promise and you will also pass every test of faith, because then you will know that I am constantly present to you, always ready to help as soon as you ask Me for it....

Amen
