6523 Right childlike relationship.... "If you do not become like children.... "

April 16, 1956: Book 70

Unless you become like children, you cannot enter My Kingdom.... You should understand this right: A child fully trusts the Father, it listens to His words and does not doubt the truth of what it is told, it confidently awaits the promise, it believes everything the Father promises it, it believes everything He speaks to the child.... And I demand this faith from you, that you trust Me without any hesitation, that you accept My words as pure truth and make them your guiding principle in your way of life. But this should not mean that you blindly accept what is passed on to you from another side, then you should first check to see where these teachings or words originate from, for I only speak of the right childlike relationship which I want to see established in order to be able to speak to you as a Father. And therefore I say: 'Become like children.... "You can believe your Father, and in order to hear Him thus you must first have established the right childlike relationship, and then you need not doubt or fear that you will be offered something which could harm you.... Therefore I have to demand faith from you because no evidence for spiritual teachings can be given to you. But I do not want you to believe everything that is presented to you as long as you are not sure that it originated from the Father, that it is in fact a good gift which He offers you because you are His children whom He loves.... But he who always opposes his intellect, who cannot muster a childlike faith, is like a wayward child who does not abide by what the Father says to him.... It does not matter to him who speaks to him, he will always believe that he can best judge for himself, and he is not in the right childlike relationship with Me and his thinking is endangered. You will not be able to fathom spiritual matters with your intellect, but your heavenly Father will give them to you if you turn to Him as children in the right way, and what He gives you you can accept as truth without any hesitation. Therefore, first ensure that you make contact with your Father; come to Me trustingly and approach Me Myself for it, feel towards Me like underage little children who hand themselves over and allow themselves to be given a gift by the Father.... And then take notice of the gift, value it as a gift of love through which the Father wants to please you, help you, and save you.... The undoubted faith of a child should serve as an example for all of you, however distinguished you are in earthly life.... Become like children.... Then you will also be protected like children from all dangers which threaten the soul when forces approach it which offer it harmful, impure food.... Let yourselves be fed by the Father alone, Who will truly give you what is best for your soul.... A childlike faith will lead you upwards safely, for I will not allow a child's faith in Me to fail....

Amen
