6028 Create and work.... nightfall....

August 19, 1954: Book 65

The day is drawing to a close. There are only a few minutes left until night falls, and you should make good use of these few minutes, you should work as long as you can, because the light of day still shines for you. For when night has come, you will no longer be able to work because you lack light and strength to do so. I urgently admonish you to be mindful of the fact that you will not have much time left to create and work and that you should therefore work diligently and conscientiously in order to acquire My kingdom, in order to find a blissful place where there will be no more night for ever.... where bright light shines and you need never fear the night again. But anyone who does not do this work will not be illuminated by the morning sun; he will sink into the night and again need an infinitely long time until he once again comes into the light of day. These are serious words that I speak to you.... Words full of love and concern for you, who are free to decide whether they want to strive for the light-filled day or disregard these words of Mine and let earthly life pass by unthinkingly unused.... They do not fear the night because it is still day for them and they do not believe in an endless night coming.... And I therefore warn you urgently against this indifference.... I hold the words before you: Create and work while it is still day, for the night is coming when you will no longer be able to work.... You do not know the night I speak of, yet you have to expect it, you have to fear its darkness and its terrors, and yet you can still avert it from you if you believe My words and make use of the short time when it is still day by earnestly asking Me to save you from this night.... by being ready for the work you only do for your soul, for yourselves and for your eternal life.... You constantly work for earthly life, and no work is too much for you if it is a matter of creating a feeling of well-being for your body.... But work for your soul and make use of the light of day for it.... Use all your vitality to live according to My will.... in love for Me and for your neighbour.... Then you will create and work with success, then the deepest night can descend upon the earth and all who did not seek to escape the darkness.... You will experience a morning full of light.... a new day will dawn for you in the most radiant light.... you will dwell in My kingdom and forever escape the night of death....

Amen
