5539b Power of love....

November 23, 1952: Book 61

The strength of love is all-conquering. How gladly I would like to make you receptive to this most profound truth, yet you humans can only experience the effect yourselves through the exercise of love, and before that it remains incomprehensible to you that love can express itself as strength, and by virtue of his intellect the human being will never be able to explain and grasp this wisdom. The fact that all might and power is at My disposal is proven by creation and the ever-recurring works of creation which My will allows to come into being. But the power which has become active for this purpose is love.... and since you are My living creations, thus everything is in you which grasps My essence, you must also possess and be able to use this strength.... Yet it lies dormant in you, it has ceased to be active due to your past fall into sin, but nevertheless it is in you, since your being is the evidence of the strength of love resting in you. And you are free to unfold it again as it was in the beginning, and then you could create and work like gods according to your will.... But you leave it unused because your little realization does not contain the knowledge of the connection and because you yourselves do not fulfil your task to develop the strength of love within you into an all-conquering strength.... Your love is only an earthly love; it only ever turns to things which are transient, it has not yet entered the spiritual path where it only really comes to fruition.... it first has to be completely unselfish in order to be able to work as strength, and you humans lack this unselfish love, which is why you detach yourselves from earth with such difficulty, that is, your thoughts do not wander upwards into the kingdom which is still unknown to you but nevertheless your true home. However, as soon as the right love flares up in you you will also be able to penetrate that kingdom, then the strength will already start to work and it will become ever more effective the stronger it glows in you, and then you will accomplish things which seem to be beyond the realm of the natural to you humans and yet only correspond to your own nature. What could you humans accomplish if only you would change yourselves into love? Weak and powerless you let yourselves be driven by all events where you could intervene through love yourselves, where you could conquer everything by virtue of your love. All this is still incomprehensible to you and therefore unbelievable, yet if I tell you, you can accept it as truth and therefore only ever strive to develop the right, i.e. unselfish love, and you will very soon experience the effect yourselves, and nothing will oppress you any longer, because if you live in love you will be in contact with Me and thus nothing will be impossible for you anymore, because My strength is unlimited and is now also available to you without restriction. For I am love, the power Which accomplishes everything, and the union through love with Me also makes you beings which can accomplish everything according to their will....

Amen
