5298 Redeemer work on souls in the afterlife.... expression of them....

January 17, 1952: Book 59

Every service you believe to render Me, which you want to render Me, is pleasant to Me, for I evaluate your will. You humans cannot imagine that the connection from the spiritual kingdom to earth and vice versa can be established at any time and will also be established through your thoughts, which are constantly touching emanations from the spiritual kingdom, regardless of whether they are good or bad, for the kingdom of darkness also affects you in the form of thoughts. Earthly, through death, a separation has occurred between the people of this earth and the kingdom of the beyond, but spiritually there are no boundaries if you do not erect them yourselves through wrong thinking or complete turning away from the spiritual world. Only the material outer form is no longer present, but the soul, the actual beingness, is always accessible to you. You draw it to yourselves through your thinking and willing, and if you are now of awakened spirit, if you are not completely unenlightened, you can contact those who were close to you on earth at any time. You can talk to them in thought and they will always hear your speech, they will also answer you if you make an effort to understand their answer. For it is no longer the bodily organs which convey the answer to you but you must try to understand their language and thus, to a certain extent, communicate with them spiritually. Perfect beings from the spiritual kingdom can express themselves to you through the spirit, less perfect as well as immature beings of the beyond make themselves known in a way which is even more similar to earthly communication but which you humans can also understand.

All beings want to express themselves, no matter whether they are above or below you according to their maturity, only what they want to tell you is different. The high beings, the inhabitants of the kingdom of light, want to give you.... constantly hand out strength to you because they know that you lack it and want to help you to become blissfully happy. But the beings which are still imperfect want your help.... They, too, want to communicate with you in the hope of receiving something from you because they feel poor and miserable as long as they are still completely ignorant. And these souls often don't understand that you don't listen to them, they don't know that you can no longer hear them with physical ears, and therefore you are constantly surrounded by souls.... by those who are in need and also by those who want to help you in earthly as well as in spiritual adversity. If these souls succeed in making themselves known to you, if they succeed in making themselves understood to you, they will be extremely happy and constantly stay close to you.... I don't refuse them if they want to express themselves, but I also bless everything you do out of love in order to provide these souls with the requested help. You humans don't know the hardship in which so many souls languish.... Wherever a being seeks to escape this hardship, wherever it finds a path through the adversity which finally leads to Me, I will stand by these souls and will never condemn what love wanting to help undertakes and what also brings certain help to the unhappy souls.... which can therefore be regarded as a work of salvation if it is only intended to help the souls in the beyond with deepest seriousness and best will. But the best help remains the intercession you humans should offer to those souls, for it enables Me Myself to mercifully incline towards the beings, and all souls you include in loving intercession will certainly be lifted up from the abyss, because the strength of love helps every soul to ascend....

Amen
