5050 Volunteer God serving.... struggles of the soul....

January 27, 1951: Book 57

To be active in free will for Me and My kingdom, without any inner and outer compulsion, is the right redemption work which you, My labourers in the vineyard, should carry out for your own and your fellow human beings' blessing. I cannot determine you, just as I cannot prevent you from striving in opposition to Me; you must want to serve Me of your own accord and always be ready for Me, otherwise you will still place the world above Me and then you will not be able to be suitable servants. I know about your will, I know about your inner struggles and about the challenges which approach you from within and without, but I also enable you to nevertheless carry out spiritual work because I impart an extraordinary gift of grace to you which gives you strength and light so that you can certainly recognize the right path even if dark shadows obscure it. The last time on earth is a time of struggle of utmost importance, it is a struggle for every single soul on the part of the dark forces, yet you humans are not defenceless in the face of them, for I, too, am obviously active and always ready with My help where you are in danger of succumbing. Moreover, the time still doesn't last long.... A fierce struggle is a sign that it is necessary for the soul.... why it is necessary I alone know, therefore always recognize Me, even in your oppressive events, for nothing comes over you without meaning. Earthly life seems to go on calmly but the more the soul life of those who want to belong to Me is agitated. Earthly life seeks to win people over for itself, it seeks to turn all thoughts towards itself, and therefore the soul must also be aroused so that it does not remain inactive and finally becomes captivated by the world. Just recognize Me everywhere, even in suffering, then you will bear it calmly and devotedly, and your soul will mature and always grasp Me more and more, it will also feel My presence and be calm and peaceful despite the storm and struggle in earthly life. I constantly hold My protective hand over you, yet I will never force you or have a coercive effect on you that you should serve Me.... voluntarily, for love of Me, you must do what the spiritual hardship among people requires.... tell them about the pure gospel which is sent to you from above as an extraordinary gift of grace in order to help humanity.... The spiritual hardship is great, your work will often be unsuccessful, yet nothing is done in vain which is undertaken for the salvation of erring souls.... One day you will experience the results yourselves, and the souls you have rescued from spiritual adversity will thank you, for My pure word is blessed with My strength and will become effective wherever there is just the slightest will to recognize Me and to reach Me....

Amen
