ODGAJANJE DJETETA U VJERI ILI BOŽJA POMOC....

Svakom uputstvu odgore treba biti pružena pažnja, jer Bog ne prenosi besciljno Svoju Rijec na Zemlju. Cim covjek prepozna povezanost izmedu neba i Zemlje, i cim poveže svako zbivanje sa duhovnim vodenjem, bit ce mu puno lakše podnositi zemaljski život isto kao i uzdici stanje svoje duše, jer onda on ne smatra kako je njegov vlastiti zemaljski život bez svrhe i cilja, nego vodi racuna o svojem zadatku. Izvjesnost da je volja Božja odlucujuca za svaki dogadaj, obavezuje ga da sebe samoga podredi toj volji, da dozvoli biti voden od te volje, i da se potrudi živjeti po toj volji Božjoj. I potom pridaje Božanskom Glasu, Njegovoj Rijeci, potpunu pažnju. I tako živi savjesno svoj život. Covjek u njegovom neznanju potrebuje Božju Rijec. Kada zapocne zemaljski život kao covjek nedostaje mu svako razumijevanje i svako znanje o Božanskim stvarima. On zbog toga mora biti polagano uveden u znanje, i od strane ljudi obaviješten o tome, s pretpostavkom da ti isti bližnji jesu u kontaktu sa Bogom, i da ti isti teže ka Bogu i da imaju spoznaju o Božjem rukovodenju i djelovanju, u koje oni vjeruju. Onda ce i dijete biti uvedeno u takvu vjeru. Ako su ti isti ljudi nevjernici i prenose njihovu nevjeru na dijete, ono ipak nije ostavljeno protivnim silama, nego se Sam Bog brine i pomaže mu da stekne spoznaju, oblikujuci njegov životni put na nacin da mu razmišljanje bude stimulirano, dakle on biva poducavan misaonim putem i tako može biti doveden do istog rezultata da nauci vjerovati u jednoga Boga, Koji drži u rukama sudbinu njegovog života, da nauci vjerovati u jedno odredište, u jedan zadatak, koji covjek mora ispuniti tijekom njegovog zemaljskog života. Bog ne ostavlja ni jedno bice bez pomoci, i ne prepušta nikoga samome sebi ili nevjernim bližnjima. On je dao razum i sposobnost razmišljanja ljudima, koje može dovesti takoder direktnim putem do spoznaje, kada poduka bližnjih izostaje. Covjek mora samo razviti svoju volju da bude u Istini. Ne smije sebi dozvoliti da bude voden, dakle on sam mora biti aktivan, mora željeti poznavati Istinu i ciniti ono što je ispravno. Potom ce mu se Sam Bog prikazati prepoznatljivim, i On ce ga voditi sve dok ne pristigne do svoga cilja.

AMEN

Raising a child to believe or God's help....

Every hint from above should be heeded, for God does not convey His word to earth without purpose. As soon as the human being recognizes a connection between heaven and earth, as soon as he can relate all events to spiritual guidance, his earthly life will be easier to bear and his state of soul will improve, for then he will not regard his own earthly life as pointless and purposeless but will be aware of his task. The certainty that God's will is decisive for every event determines him to also submit himself to this will, to let himself be guided by it, and he endeavours to live according to God's will. And then he also pays full attention to the divine voice, His word.... And so he lives his life consciously.... Man in his ignorance needs the word of God. As soon as he begins life on earth as a human being, he lacks all understanding, all knowledge of divine things. He first has to be slowly introduced to the knowledge of it, and he is enlightened about it from the human side, provided that his fellow human beings themselves are in contact with God, that they themselves strive for God and have knowledge of His reign and work.... that they believe.... Then the child will also be led into this faith. However, if the fellow human beings themselves are without faith and they also transfer their unbelief to the child, the latter is nevertheless not left to the opposing power but God Himself takes care of him and helps him to gain realization by shaping his path of life such that his thinking is stimulated, thus he is instructed intellectually and can be led to the same result.... that he learns to believe in a God Who holds his fate in His hand.... that he learns to believe in a destiny, in a task, which the human being is intended to fulfil during his earthly life. God leaves no human being without help, He leaves no one to his own devices or to unbelieving fellow human beings.... He has given man understanding and the ability to think, which can also lead him directly to realization if the education of his fellow human beings fails. Man must only muster the will to stand in the truth.... He must not allow himself to be driven but must be active himself, he must desire to know what is true and to do what is right.... Then God makes Himself known to him and He guides him so that he can reach his goal....

Amen
