8063 Spiritual petition: Prayer for grace and strength....

December 15, 1961: Book 85

From My abundance you may take grace upon grace. For I distribute with full hands, I do not limit My gifts if only you want Me to give them to you.... And My love for you is truly exceedingly great, for I see weak little children in you who cannot ascend without help, who need My help to ascend. And if you now appeal to Me for grace and strength it will truly be granted to you, because I will gladly grant such a request, after all, it proves to Me your will to reach Me, from Whom you once took your origin. And you admit your weakness, you recognize the deficient state you are in and humbly come to Him Who is strength and light Himself and also wants to provide you with strength and light. You can certainly dispose of vitality in earthly life but this does not yet guarantee your ascent to the height because you need spiritual strength for it, which you can indeed acquire with vitality.... And if you therefore ask for spiritual strength you recognize your state of weakness yourselves and try to remedy it. I give you everything, I am constantly willing to hand it out, and no-one need go empty-handed who hopes to be strengthened by Me.... But you must approach Me for this.... For once you rejected My love.... and this meant that you became powerless, because My love loses effectiveness as soon as it encounters resistance. Therefore you first have to give up your resistance, and you prove this to Me when you appeal to Me for grace and strength.... which means that you are willing to return to Me, that you feel the lack of love as a weakened state and want to receive it again. And thus I can also give Myself to you and provide you with grace and strength.... And truly, I will distribute abundantly to you, you will have no lack and now also cover your earthly path of life with success. You will pass your test of will and only ever turn your eyes towards Me because I will now draw you with My love. You can believe that you will not be successful on your own, that you need Me and My help..... My greater than great love guarantees that I will grant you this, yet you must request it yourselves, you must turn your thoughts towards Me and open yourselves for the influx of strength of grace. Just as you once turned away from Me and closed yourselves in free will.... so you must now come to Me again of your own free will, and your prayers will truly be answered, for My love only ever wants to give itself away, it wants to make you happy, it wants to awaken the dead, it wants to strengthen the weak.... It wants to draw you to itself and therefore seeks union with you, but you have to enter into it of your own free will because I don't force you. But then I will know no restrictions, you may receive strength and grace in abundance, and the ascent upwards will be easy for you, you will live your earthly life in accordance with its purpose; you will come to realize that I Myself and the union with Me is the purpose and aim of your earthly life. And now you will consciously walk the earthly path, for then you will feel like your father's children, you will establish the right relationship of a child to its father, and truly, you will return to your father's house and now be and remain united with Me forever.... You will make right use of all graces and mature on earth.... You will now be able to enter My kingdom as My true children, which is your true home....

Amen
