DEPRESIJA.... DUHOVNA IN FIZIČNA RAVNODUŠNOST....

Usmerite pozornost na vsako depresijo, ki vpliva na vas in nanjo vedno glejte kot na sredstvo, ki ga Gospodar uporablja, da bi dušo podredil Njegovi volji. Bodite pozorni! Vi ljudje bi se prepustili določeni količini duhovne lenosti (inertnosti), in to brez obžalovanja, da niste podrejeni razpoloženjem, ki vplivajo na vaše razmišljanje. Odkriti razlog za depresijo, da bi jo odpravili, je lahko vedno duhovno blagodejno, ker je naloga človeškega bitja biti nenehno dejaven, da tako ne bi zmanjšal njegove življenjske moči (postal neodločen), kar pa velja tako za telo, kot tudi za človekovega duha.

Ko se enkrat pojavi stanje zmanjšane življenjskosti (vitalnosti), bo po vsej verjetnosti oslabela tudi dejavnost tako fizično, kakor tudi duhovno, kar pa vedno predstavlja upadanje, katerega Božanska modrost želi preprečiti pod pogojem, da zemeljski otrok sodeluje pri vsakem bodrenju (opogumljanju) in preprečevanju. Nevarnost takšnega upadanja je prevelika, da bi se ga lahko zanemarilo. Ravno nasprotno, proti njemu se je potrebno boriti s pomočjo vseh razpoložljivih sredstev, kar pa se glede na to dogaja v veliki modrosti, ko oseba pada v depresije, ki potem dajejo povod za razmišljanje in imajo velik učinek na telo in duha.

Nekdo, ki na to vedno gleda na način, da tovrstne depresije razume kot ponovno oživljanje duha in telesa, bo iz njih izvlekel največjo korist.... On bo spremljal, iz katere strani mu grozi tveganje in se bo zaščitil celo pred pojavitvijo stanja lenosti (inertnosti).... To je način, kako Gospodar ščiti Njegove Lastne, da ne bi klonili; to pa obenem tudi kombinira z namenom vzgoje.... povečevanja življenjske dejavnosti.... z obzirnim samo-preverjanjem (miselno kritiko) glede na to, koliko je pravzaprav bitje krhko (šibko) in nepopolno; in na ta način človeško bitje vrača njegovo notranjo ponižnost, ko je v nevarnosti, da bi jo izgubil. Božanska modrost mora pogosto ukrepati, da bi duša neomajno napredovala. Vi ljudje ste tako šibki in brez vztrajnosti.... Da je to odvisno samo od vas, brez podpore Božanske milosti, bi bil vsak napredek težak. Nič na svetu ne traja večno.... večne spremembe in menjavanja ohranjajo to, da je vse nenehno dejavno. Ravno tako mora biti tudi Duh nenehno stimuliran, in Bog glede na to posreduje na različne in spremenljive načine....

Toda vedno z namenom, da je to koristno za zemeljske otroke, v skrbi za njih in v skladu z njihovo potrebo pogosto na boleče načine, toda ravno tako spodbujajoče.... Torej edini odločujoč dejavnik je učinek, katerega imajo dogodki ali občutki na duha človeškega bitja. Človek le redko z lahkoto uspeva premagovati vse ovire v življenju....

Njegova moč ga bo pogosto zapustila, zaradi česar mora potem priti očitna pomoč od zgoraj; čeprav pa se ona pogosto izraža (deluje) tako, da ni sprejeta z odobravanjem.... se pravi v obliki čustvenih depresij, ki tako obremenjujejo zemeljskega otroka, da jih bo on poizkušal premagati in se na ta način osvoboditi od lenosti, ki pa je neizogibna. On bo potem poizkušal še bolj izpolniti Božjo voljo.... on bo težil k temu, da ponovno vzpostavi stanje miru, kar pa lahko doseže edino s povečano dejavnostjo. Zaradi tega vsaka depresija, četudi se zdi, da obremenjuje zemeljskega otroka, ravno tako vključuje določen blagoslov pod pogojem, da je kot takšna prepoznana.

AMEN

Depression.... Spiritual and physical apathy....

Pay attention to every depression affecting you and always regard it as the means used by the Lord in order to submit the soul to His will. Behold, you humans would yield to a certain amount of spiritual sluggishness without a second thought were you not subjected to moods which affect your thinking. To discover the reason for depression in order to resolve it can only ever be spiritually beneficial, for the human being's task is to be constantly active so as not to diminish in his vigour, and this applies both to the body as well as to the person's spirit. Once the state of diminished vigour has occurred, spiritual as well as physical activity is likely to wane and this would always signify a decline, which divine wisdom seeks to prevent, providing the earthly child willingly complies with every encouragement and prevention. The danger of such a decline is too great to be overlooked; on the contrary, it must be fought by using all available means, which therefore very wisely happens by subjecting a person to depressions which, in turn, give cause for reflection and exert an invigorating effect on body and spirit. Someone who always regards and understands such depressions as a revival for spirit and body will derive utmost benefit from them.... He will monitor from which side he is at risk and protect himself even before the state of inertia occurs.... This is how the Lord protects His Own from weariness and at the same time combines it with an educational purpose.... of increased vigorous activity.... with thoughtful introspection as to how small and inadequate the earthly being actually is, and in so doing the human being regains his inner humility when he is at risk of losing it. Divine wisdom must frequently intervene if the soul's improvement is to progress steadily. You humans are so weak and without perseverance.... Were it left up to you alone, without the support of divine grace, any progress would be hard. Nothing in the world lasts forever.... eternal alternation and alteration keep everything continually active. The spirit must therefore also be constantly stimulated and God deals with this in a manifold and frequently changing way. Yet always bearing the benefit of the children on earth in mind and taking care of them according to their need, often in painful but also in uplifting ways.... However, the only decisive factor is the effect the events or feelings exert on the human being's spirit. A person rarely succeeds in overcoming all hurdles in life with the same ease.... Many a time his strength will leave him and then visible help must come from above, but it frequently expresses itself such that it is not gladly welcomed.... that is, in the shape of emotional depressions which so burden the earthly child that it will try to master them and thereby liberate itself from the impending danger of inertia. Then it will try twice as hard to fulfil God's will.... it will aim to attain a state of inner peace again and can only achieve this through increased activity. Consequently, every depression, if it seems to burden the earthly child, also includes a certain blessing providing it is recognised as such....

Amen
