5758 Shaping the heart to the temple of God....

August 31, 1953: Book 62

You shall shape your heart into a temple in which I can take abode. And in this temple you should pray, enter your inner being and seek Me there and speak to Me in humility and love.... and you will hear My counter-speech, providing you make My presence within you possible. But if you shape your heart into a temple of God you will cleanse it of all rubbish, you will remove everything from it which does not allow My presence, you will adorn it with virtues of all kinds; you will do everything that pleases Me and draws Me into the temple of your heart, you will become love yourselves in order to be able to receive eternal love within yourselves. And then you will always worship in silence, then you will gladly stay where I am and only ever long for the hour when you can converse with Me, when you offer your services to Me, when you entrust your needs and worries to Me, when you ask Me for help and strength in humble silent prayer.... You will insert this hour more and more frequently into your earthly existence, for then you will dwell in a realm which lies outside the earthly world, you will seek comfort and strength in the place where I dwell, because you have made it into a dwelling place, into a temple for Me through your love.... You do not need to look for Me far away, not in public places, not in dead objects, for there I am not to be found.... but if you go into your own heart, if you go into silence to call upon Me, then I will respond to your call, even if your heart is not yet shaped in such a way that I can dwell in it, but I will come to you and help you to prepare the dwelling place for Me....

For your desire for Me is already a great aid for the purification of the heart, and then everything that prevents Me from moving in with you will also be removed with My strength.... I can be so close to you that you feel My presence, that you are able to hear Me, and I also want to be so close to you because I love you.... But you must make it possible for Me to be with you.... By shaping yourselves into love you must prepare your heart as a temple into which you can then enter at any time in order to receive words of love from Me which will always make you happy as soon as you desire to hear Me....

Amen
