5412 Fountain of graces.... God’s Word....

June 14, 1952: Book 60

God‘s fountain of grace never runs dry and is accessable to all of you, for He knows how much you need it, how many graces you need to be given so that you become strong enough for the work which you have to accomplish on earth, on which your soul has to walk on. You cannot do this out of your own strength, you need to be given strength by God, and beause you yourselves do not acquire it, it is a gift so to speak, that He bestows to you..... by receiving from the fountain of His grace without measure. And even if the human being may be striving, he remains too weak by trying to tackle the upward development of his soul out of his own accord, and therefore the love of God shows mercy, and it helps so the human being is threatended to fail. It gives him lavishly strength of grace that he only needs to use, which is certainly bestowed to him, but cannot become effective until the human being wants it itself, until he utilises it according to divine will....This granting of grace can take place in many different ways, it always has its origin in God, i.e., God Himself causes everything that can serve the human being to mature, and all these means and ways are God's grants of grace which man has not earned but which are a real gift from God. And thus every means which helps the human being to attain perfection can be regarded as a means of grace, and the fountain of His love never runs dry.... God will never stop to help men that they can mature spiritually, but His help is not always accepted, not always use is made of the means, which His infinite love gives to men; they cannot always become effective because the free will of man is not allowed to be switched off, otherwise every gift of favour would have to guarantee a maturing, but which is always only then possible when man is willing to accept and make use of it. And thus His divine Word is also an immeasurably effective means of grace which flows forth from the ever-flowing fountain of His grace. The living water is unsurpassable in its power and is certain to bring maturity to a person's soul, but again only if the person's will is prepared to draw strength from this water, if he refreshes and strengthens himself, if he believes in the strength that God wants to impart to him through His Word. To be allowed to refresh himself at the fountain of His immeasurable love is truly a gift of grace which no-one should spurn, for nothing else can give his soul such a boost, nothing else but His divine Word promotes its maturity and brings about the change of nature.... And no restriction is imposed on you humans, His measure of grace is at your unlimited disposal, you can always be certain of divine help, you just have to strive for it of your own free will, for it depends on you yourselves whether the grace can also become effective. Therefore, don't walk past the fountain of life, look for the path to the source of living water and, once you have found it, take a break there and receive the divine gift of grace so that you will not have lived in vain on earth, so that your soul will mature and you will reach your goal on earth....

Amen
