Only that which bears the mark of love is imperishable. For only that which is born of love will outlast time and eternity. And it is therefore useless to want to build something which does not correspond to the commandment of love, for this will inevitably come to an end, and the strength which God imparts to every human being will be misused if it is only utilised for actions which are devoid of all love. Whatever earthly success arises from it has no lasting value, it goes the way of all earthly things, it passes away.... And only the work created with love is indestructible, for even if the outward appearance of such an activity is seemingly transient, everything done with love has eternal value.... It is the good deeds which follow you into eternity, which alone are only valued when everything earthly has fallen away from the human being. And only then can the soul speak of wealth or poverty, for love and light are one, and anyone who has worked with love on earth is surrounded by a radiant light; he recognises, he has knowledge. He suddenly realises the great significance of earthly life and the consequences of a loving or loveless way of life, and he realises that only love is the only redeeming thing in earthly existence. What man creates for himself in earthly wealth is an increase of that which is to be overcome on earth. Before his stage as a human being, he has already overcome all matter, that is, liberated himself from every form, albeit in a state of compulsion.... And on earth he should do the same in a free state. However, the inclination towards earthly things is the desire for what he has already overcome and is therefore a step backwards. Desire for possessions is at the same time a lack of love, for a loving person wants to give to the one he loves. But that person only loves his ego and what benefits his ego. So it is a wrong love that never has a redeeming effect, that binds the human being to matter as if with chains. And so, all care is only for his body but not for his soul, and earthly wealth, for which all love on earth was intended, must turn into utmost poverty in the beyond. On the other hand, however, earthly wealth need not be an obstacle to be lovingly active as long as it is willingly given in order to banish the hardship and worries of fellow human beings.... if the heart does not cling to it longingly but turns what God has given towards its fellow human being with love. All actions and thoughts must be born of love, then they will result in richest blessings on earth, and a life of light and bliss in the beyond....

Amen
