6057 Blessing of receipt and distribution....

September 17, 1954: Book 65

Undreamed-of blessings can arise for you humans from My word and its distribution, for you are touched by a flow of strength both when receiving as well as when passing it on, because you establish the connection with Me or make the connection of your fellow human beings with Me possible, for which you are also assured of My blessing. All your efforts on earth for the purpose of attaining earthly possessions do not outweigh the success which the connection with Me earns you, for what you thereby receive is everlasting, it is a possession which alone is of value for eternity. When you receive My word you carry out a spiritual activity.... you direct your thoughts into spiritual spheres, you stay with Me and hold out your open hands to Me in supplication, which I then fill with gifts of love. And if you now also offer these gifts to your fellow human beings My gifts of love are already working on you, you recognize them as extremely valuable and therefore also want to pass them on to others because love is kindled in you.... Again, your striving is spiritual and also has a spiritual effect.... so that your fellow human being also establishes contact with Me and likewise comes into the blessing of My word. And these connections from earth to Me are also felt by countless souls in the kingdom of the beyond or noticed as a shining of light, and now they, too, enter the circle of light, and they, too, are affected by the blessing, for they feel a flow of strength which triggers an ever greater desire for My word in them. For they understand the meaning of My word just as you humans do, and they accept it far more eagerly in order to increase their strength. Hence the spreading of My word is not only My will for the sake of people on earth but the souls in the beyond shall also take notice of it because they, too, require light and strength as long as the gates to the kingdom of light are still closed to them and they can likewise withdraw light and strength from My word. For these souls such impartation of My word signifies the only possibility of ascent, for without it they have too little strength to be able to perform works of love, which, however, they could easily do in earthly life with the help of the life force.... This is why people on earth pass by the most delicious things indifferently because they overestimate their vitality but use it wrongly. But the souls in the beyond are infinitely grateful for the help which signifies My word for them. And therefore both the receiving as well as the spreading of My word is of inconceivable blessing for everyone, for the strength of My word will always be felt, and souls will always be found which are grateful for this attention, and these, in turn, will pass on again what they have received, and thus a redeeming activity will also start in the kingdom of the beyond where the strength of My word has once been felt, because My word awakens love and love is always willing to provide help, on earth as well as in the kingdom of the beyond....

Amen
