0472 Serve.... love.... task....

June 18, 1938: Book 10

An alert mind will be given to those who devote themselves to the lord at all times. Just as a dewy meadow waters all its grasses, stalks and flowers, so the heart will also be blessed with divine grace so that it can constantly draw the will to live from it, and it will also never need to fear that it could ever lack strength, for where the lord wants to train willing servants for His teaching ministry, He also provides them with the necessary strength at all times.... By the task the lord gives you, you will recognize His degree of love. You have already received many a proof of love and must thank the lord for this love with ever more selfless devotion, and then the mystery of love will also become clear to you.... then you will only ever have one path that leads to God.... to serve Him with all your strength and will.... If you make this your concern, you will soon be so united with your saviour that everything in you will have become love.... And then you will recognize everything with your heart.... You give love and kindness everywhere and receive the saviour's love in return, and your work for the lord will become ever more zealous. For He Himself spurs you on to do so by placing warm feelings and a desire for labour of love in your heart. Whoever gives love will receive love twice over. He who serves the lord will be exalted and one day reign over many.... and whoever desires to see the lord will be recognized by the lord, but first you must free your soul from its oppressive covering.... You must make your heart worthy to receive the lord, only then can He make you happy, but then you will glow with love, and your endeavour will henceforth be a more diligent one to live to please the lord, to serve Him in all reverence and to love and worship Him with all your heart as the highest and most perfect being, as the divine creator of heaven and earth....

Amen
