0464 Mystery of love....

June 13, 1938: Book 10

See My child.... no matter how much the mystery of love worries you, you must nevertheless remain faithful to Me, even if you have not yet penetrated it. Behold, I want My children to know that they must acquire it all by themselves.... I put everything into their hearts that is necessary for this, but they will only be able to love Me completely when their nature has become completely love, and so the highest bliss of loving Me is always something they can create for themselves all by themselves. I will stir up the desire for it in My children's hearts and then it will be up to them to penetrate the great secret.... Whenever you do a labour of love you will feel that you are coming closer to Me and then your heart will also feel bliss every time, and this is an outflow of My love for you. Now, My child, practice love at all times and you will prepare for yourselves an unspeakable feeling of happiness which is not like any earthly love and yet gives you all delights. In the connection with Me through deeds of love the only necessary thing is established, for love inevitably brings together those who want to love each other.... What you cannot grasp in this way will suddenly become understandable to you if you remain inseparably connected to Me through deeds of love.... An incomparable blessing falls upon the earthly children who are faithful and devoted to Me.... I never leave these children from Me.... save them from all adversity and always hold My hands protectively over them.... but they must prepare all love for themselves, because I can only give love where the heart is capable of love.... where it only ever performs deeds of love. So know, My daughter, that your body on earth had to renounce earthly pleasures of love in order to belong to Me in ardent love.... know that you will be much happier one day when earthly deeds will have an effect.... And that time is not far off, My child.... Therefore do all your works with diligence, that you may serve the lord of heaven and earth to the best of your ability, for as you serve, so shall you one day reign.... but for this earth a constant deep longing for Me will be your lot, which I will fulfil in abundance if you give Me your heart for eternity....

Amen
