4695 The word of God proof of His love....
July 22, 1949: Book 54
Nothing can prove My love for you more than My word. And therefore you cannot do anything more reprehensible than reject My word, because you thereby also reject My love. You humans do not yet understand what the latter means, yet your lack of strength, your spiritual low, is proof that you cannot ascend in your development without My love, without My word. Where My word is received through listening or reading or directly from Me, people will also draw strength from it, for I Myself speak to them and transfer My strength to the recipient, and this expresses itself in an increasing desire for Me and My presence, it expresses itself in spiritual striving, in loving activity, in turning away from the world, furthermore, it expresses itself in increasing realization, thus in correct, truthful thinking and knowledge about the beginning and destiny and thus in a way of life according to My will. All this is brought about by My strength, which you receive with My word.... Thus the transmission of My word is also evidence of My love which wants to make you happy in every way and help you reach perfection. For through My word the striving upwards shall become easy for you, through My word you shall gain an insight into My rule and activity and come closer to Me willingly and through activity in love. And since you yourselves, due to your imperfection as a human being, are unworthy to be addressed by Me but I nevertheless do so, you have proof of My love for you again, for with My word I give you a gift of grace of inestimable value and undeserved. Yet your will is too weak to desire My word and therefore I communicate with you in the word without being asked, yet it can only become effective for you if you accept it of your own free will, that is, you will only feel the strength of the word if your will is ready to receive it. And thus My word can also remain completely unsuccessful with people who certainly hear it but don't make use of it, for whom it is just an empty sound because they don't receive it into their heart but only hear it with their physical ears. They feel no effect of strength and therefore cannot recognize My love from it either, because they themselves have a hardened heart which is incapable of love. They don't know Me and don't desire Me, for their love still applies to the world and matter and they disregard what comes to them from the spiritual kingdom. But then it is never due to My word that they go empty-handed but due to themselves, because My gift of grace has to be accepted with desire and gratitude in order to be effective and to testify to My love for people....
Amen
