5101 Bridge to God - Jesus Christ....

April 7, 1951: Book 57

You all have to walk on the bridge which leads to Me because there is no other way to reach Me. The man Jesus built this bridge for you.... He saw the infinitely wide gulf which lay between you and Me; He knew that it could never be overcome by you humans, that you could never reach Me and that you therefore had to languish eternally far away from Me if you were not helped. Then He Himself reduced the distance between you and Me.... He built a bridge over the gulf which was now passable for everyone who was moved by the desire for Me to enter this bridge.... For all of you there is only this one path which Jesus has preceded you.... the path of intimate union with Me, which is found through love and prayer in spirit and in truth.

There is a bridge on which you humans can make contact with Me. You are no longer hopelessly banished from My proximity, you can approach Me at any time, and Jesus has shown you the path, He has exemplified the life to you which you also have to live if you want to unite with Me.... You stand completely powerless at the edge of the gulf, and once you have raised your eyes to where I am, where the wide gulf has an end, then you first have to appeal for strength to be able to cover the path, which is only short but difficult. You must therefore turn in thought to the one Who can provide you with strength if you do not acquire it yourselves.... you have to pray to Me for strength or acquire strength through loving actions.... And My love will never leave you without strength, you will never lack grace if only you want to receive.... For the sake of the man Jesus, Who in His love acquired you graces without measure through His sacrificial death, I hear the slightest plea of your hearts, a short heartfelt prayer to Me turns these graces to you, for you thereby testify to your will to reach Me, to overcome the gulf.... you want to come to Me and I will always help you, because I also long for you who are still far away from Me. I don't turn My eye away from you because you are sinful and have voluntarily distanced yourselves from Me, but I stretch My hands towards you which you only need to grasp in order to reach the aim. The bridge is indeed narrow and stony, it is a path which leads upwards but is not so easily passable, nevertheless, it is passable as soon as you let Jesus Christ lead the way, as soon as you choose Him as your guide and follow Him. Then the ascent will become easy for you, for He will help you carry every burden.... It is I Myself Who comes to meet you if you desire unity with Me and also accomplish it through love and prayer.... I Myself fetch My children across this bridge home to Me into the father's house and will never let them leave Me again, because My love for that which I have created lasts forever....

Amen
