7707 What are graces....

September 23, 1960: Book 81

And you can all be assured of My grace.... My love for you humans constantly impels Me to distribute grace, because without grace you cannot become blessed.... In your weakness and lack of strength you need help, but you have brought about your weakness and lack of strength yourselves, and even as human beings you are often not willing to return to the 'eternal source of strength' of your own accord.... And therefore all My aids for your return are 'gifts of grace'.... which you only need to accept willingly in order for them to take effect on you. My love for you is immense but I nevertheless cannot act against My eternal order, I cannot release you from your bondage out of love as long as you don't want it yourselves. I must leave your will free, thus I cannot, out of My might and love, place you into a state which signifies bliss for you.... into a state of light and strength and freedom.... because you once stepped out of My order yourselves in free will. But out of My love I can give you gifts, and now your free will decides again whether you want to accept My gift and also make use of it. And therefore you are constantly receiving an influx of blessings which you often don't recognize as such but which can influence your will and then you also use them for the salvation of your soul. You can only become blessed by grace, for you always have to make use of My help which, however, is always granted to you by My love. And therefore also appeal for My grace and increase its influx, for a prayer for grace is a spiritual request which will always be granted. And then also gratefully receive the blessings.... But what do I mean by graces? No external customs which you call 'means of grace', for only that which takes place inwardly, in the heart, is ever valid before Me.... I now direct your life in such a way that you will always be able to derive the greatest benefit for your soul from everything that happens, from everything you experience.... Thus I will always assist you on your path back to Me, I will always try to influence your will so that it turns towards Me, and this will also sometimes happen through suffering and adversity.... I will create opportunities for you where you can serve Me in love, and I will always turn your thoughts towards what is right and good.... And all these are graces which can help you to ascend if you use them.... But My greatest gift of grace, which will let you safely reach your aim, is My word, My address, which sounds to you from above and which can always lead to perfection if it is listened to and lived out.... thus if the grace of receiving the word is correctly evaluated. And I speak to many people through My word, directly or indirectly, but My word has an extraordinary effect of strength and can therefore be acknowledged as the most effective means of grace, for with My word I truly provide you humans with assistance of a very significant kind.... For you can recognize Me Myself in the word, and therefore the return will be made easy for you, you can believe and learn to love Me, and then you will also strive towards Me and your return will be guaranteed. Then My love will have helped you and you will have accepted My gift of grace and will now also be able to safely ascend. Make sure that My flow of grace touches you daily and open your heart to it, for My love wants to help you, My love does not want to let you get lost...._>Amen
