5698 Incentive to work in the vineyard of the lord....

June 14, 1953: Book 62

You have an enormous task to accomplish but which you are also able to carry out with My grace and strength if only your will is devoted to Me, if you use all your strength for a work which still has to be done before the end of the earth in order to snatch many souls from spiritual death. I will lead you all by the hand as long as you want to serve Me, and thus you will also always take the paths which lead you to people who are in need and urgently require help. But your help is predominantly of a spiritual nature, for the spiritual hardship is still considerably greater than the earthly hardship, and for this spiritual hardship I will give you an abundance of resources into your hands, a wealth which you are now to use for the benefit of the poor, whom you are to feed and water with gifts of love, with the nourishment from heaven, which you will receive in abundance and is therefore intended for all people who are in need of food for their souls. The giving of nourishment for the soul is your task, which I urgently urge you to do.... Like My disciples you shall spread My word throughout the world, which alone is the nourishment on which the souls can strengthen themselves, on which they will recover if they feel weak and sick. And every work you do in this mission will be blessed by Me. I only need your will to serve Me, then I Myself will accomplish everything as it is successful for people who are also of good will. For I take pity on people who live in utmost spiritual poverty, who don't know and recognize Me, who go astray from the path which leads to Me.... I have mercy on people who walk in error and thereby very easily get caught in the enemy's nets of their souls. Have mercy on people who live unscrupulously into the day and have no idea how close the end is to them.... I would like to help all of them and yet I cannot address them directly so as not to make them unfree in will and faith. And therefore I call you to help Me, because help must be brought to these poor people in spirit through people.... Yet you yourselves are relieved of all responsibility as soon as you submit your will to Me. Then your will will be Mine, you will think, speak and act in accordance with My will, and every step you take will be blessed because you participate in a work of salvation which is extremely important in view of the approaching end. Therefore, place yourselves under My guidance, entrust yourselves completely to Me and you will be active for the benefit of those who are in greatest need and require help and who will be eternally grateful to you if they know that they have been saved from eternal death....

Amen
