5937 God-spirit spark.... connection with God condition....

April 21, 1954: Book 64

You carry the spark of My spirit of God within you, and this is the connection from Me to you, providing you allow it to work in you through your will. For you yourselves also have the option of not paying attention to it, in which case it certainly slumbers within you but is nevertheless completely isolated because you do not allow it access to your soul.... or also because the soul.... the thinking, feeling and wanting within you.... denies him his activity and thus he can also in no way determine the soul to listen to him or to let itself be guided by him.... The human being himself therefore determines his distance from Me, for as soon as he gives ear to the spiritual spark within himself.... thus giving it the opportunity to work.... the connection with Me Myself is also established, Who is the father-spirit from eternity and remains indissolubly connected with that spiritual spark in you.... I have set you free, completely independent of Me, although I provide you with strength in order to be able to exist.... But only the voluntary return to Me, the connection with Me established in free will, makes you entirely free beings which can work full of light and strength, whereas previously they were without light and strength and were, as it were, only held but were not beings able to create themselves. For the necessary supply of strength cannot be supplied to the being without contact with the eternal source of strength.... But to establish contact again requires the being's free will according to the law of eternity.... And it is established by the soul precisely through its willingness to listen to the spirit within itself and to submit to its urging and guidance. That which is issued from Me in isolation cannot pass away, it will remain in existence because it is strength emanating from Me which can never pass away. But in order to be able to work and create freely it requires a constantly flowing strength which it only needs to be willing to accept.... And willingness is already the establishment of contact with Me which can therefore be found extremely easily if only the being itself wants it. My spiritual spark rests in you, you who are such previously isolated creatures with whom I would like to unite.... I Myself am within you but you are not aware of Me as long as you are still unwilling to unite with Me.... Yet again and again I knock at your heart's door and desire entrance.... Whatever can only happen to cause your soul to listen to the voice of My spirit happens, but I do not touch your free will.... For only this brings about the unification but then earns you unimagined blessings. Then you can rightly say: God is in you.... For then you will have become aware of Me and follow what My spirit tells you.... You live according to My will and can now also receive strength in abundance.... For My will is a life according to My order from eternity, a life in love.... But love is strength, I Myself am love, and if I am therefore in you, you are filled with strength and can now create and work according to the degree of your willingness to love.... but which you can always increase, because you now live in constant contact with Me and yet are and remain free beings who are inexpressibly happy because they can now develop and use their strength according to their will, which is also fully and completely Mine....

Amen
