5436 Bread of life, right food, right drink....
July 12, 1952: Book 60
You have been assigned a task, which you can certainly fulfil if you are willing to serve Me. You should only pass on what you receive from Me.... you should distribute to those who are poor in spiritual possessions, who need spiritual nourishment which they can only draw from My Word which is conveyed to you from above. Many are hungry for the bread of life, but many are satisfied with false food and receive so much of it that they reject it when the bread of heaven is offered to them. And you first have to try to persuade them to abstain from the wrong food, and this is a task which has to be carried out with much love and patience.... to first draw your fellow human beings' attention to the fact that they can harm themselves by accepting the wrong food and that they should therefore very carefully scrutinise what is offered to them.... I know the great spiritual hardship of those who have been given the wrong food and I want to help them through you. You can cause much blessing by spreading the truth, for even if you find little approval from your fellow human beings, even if you experience open rejection.... you have not only spoken to these people on earth, but countless beings in the spiritual kingdom heard your words and they often accept them more easily than people on earth because they suffer greatly from hunger and thirst which, however, is satisfied by what you hand out, because it is real food and real drink for every starving soul. But what is done to the beings of the spiritual kingdom has an indirect effect on the people of this earth, for they are constantly surrounded by them and can often exert greater influence mentally than if you as humans speak to your fellow men. Believe that no work you do for Me and My kingdom is done in vain.... You yourselves cannot see the effect and therefore cannot measure it either, yet My Word, which you pass on with love, works of its own accord and countless souls feel the strength of My Word. For this reason you should not grow weary, you should not become lukewarm and sluggish in your vineyard work, then you will also successfully fulfil your ministry and help many struggling souls on earth and in the beyond. Only the truth can bring them salvation, but error binds them, and therefore these chains must be loosened by conveying the truth, by conveying the Word which comes from above. And even if this work seems too little to you, that is, it is not very successful.... a single redeemed soul which has thus been introduced to the truth has a host of ignorant souls behind it which it can instruct again and likewise redeem from darkness. Therefore diligently pursue your work which I have assigned to you and believe that it is not done in vain, that the blessing of your activity extends over many beings, that you help your fellow human beings and also the souls in the beyond if only you always distribute what My love and grace bestows upon you.... if you are undaunted and tirelessly active for Me and My kingdom....
Amen
