7805 Words of inspiration for vineyard work....

January 23, 1961: Book 82

The gift of grace you receive also obliges you to pass it on.... For it is not only given to one person but I want to address all people through this one person, because they cannot hear My direct address but urgently require My word if they are still to be saved before the end. And therefore I will assist you in every way so that you can carry out your vineyard work, so that you can spread My word as I deem it successful. For I know which souls are still open to My word, and I will truly convey My word to them through you as soon as you are willing to serve Me. Therefore only ever carry out what your heart urges you to do.... Do what seems right to you after you have commended yourselves to Me and asked for My blessing.... Then your thoughts will always be rightly directed, then you will only carry out My will and I will bless you.... Admittedly, there will only ever be a small flock which you can thus address with My word, for their hearts are not always open; but since I wrestle for every single soul so that it will still find its way to Me before the end, I will also guide My word to wherever such a soul is, and you will often have to take the strangest paths in order to reach them. But you are always under My guidance, or also: I Myself open the doors for you through which you shall enter; I Myself open up all possibilities for you to deliver My word, and you will also be joyfully accepted if you bring them My word, which they recognize as a precious gift of grace and therefore willingly accept. Therefore be immeasurably active in your work for Me and My kingdom, and don't fear a decrease in strength as long as you serve Me.... For as long as I need you as My mediators to address people through you, I will also keep you fit for your mission, and as long as you are under My care, you will not go any path alone, you will constantly be guided and need only trustingly hand yourselves over to Me.... and I will take over every spiritual and earthly worry for you, so that you can freely and light-heartedly carry out the vineyard work for which you have made yourselves available to Me. For people must hear My word, they must experience what I want from them, they must get to know Me as their God and father so that they will also show love towards Me.... People must be given spiritual knowledge which can help them attain beatitude.... yet they are left with the free will to accept and evaluate My word.... Yet as soon as you create the opportunity for Me that people will hear My word their will can also turn to Me, and then there will no longer be any danger that they will go astray. But the end is near and the time is only short.... Therefore work with all diligence; work while it is still day, for the night will come when you cannot work...._>Amen
