A tremendous upheaval of your usual life will be the result of your wrong way of life, which does not correspond to God's will. You do not consider anything important that could lead you to God, but everything that takes you away from Him. You only ever think of worldly advantages, and lose all appreciation for the value of right thinking and deep faith in God. The goal you are striving for has nothing to do with God, you truly do not need faith in Him for it, and therefore you cannot be in right thinking either, because your thinking does not lead to eternal life. But Jesus Christ says: ‘He that believeth on Me hath eternal life....’ To care for eternal life is the only purpose of (earthly) life.... To think correctly means to live for the purpose of fulfilling the task and to do everything that is conducive to the soul's higher development. However, anyone who sets himself a different goal will be living in error, for his thinking is wrong, that is, it is not guided by God but by His adversary. And this requires countermeasures on God's part so that the human being realises his wrong thinking, and tries to change himself and his distant way of life. But a change in such wrong thinking can only be brought about by an event that is so unusual that it cannot go unnoticed. It must stir all minds, it must cause even indifferent people to reflect. At the very least, man has to be affected sensitively, that is, his previous views have to suffer a severe blow as a result, he now has to try to enter into contact with that which he has so far rejected as unprovable. He must seek God so that he may find Him and partake of His grace. This event is inconceivable for you, for it takes everything you possess. You will no longer be allowed to call anything your own except faith in God, if you have it.... But this is worth more than all earthly possessions, for whoever asks God for His care with all fervour shall receive it and He will visibly lead His Own out of the adversity that the event will bring upon people. Life with its conveniences is gone, now the whole seriousness of life approaches the earthly child, which he can, however, fully cope with if he only asks God for help and courageously takes up the fight against the adversity and bitterness of existence. Only that which applies to eternity is of value, but everything else can be eliminated since it only hinders the being which is too weak to take the path leading upwards of its own accord. But God will help all those who call out to Him, for His love will not let anything perish that has the will to ascend.... He shall strengthen this will and give you humans the strength to prevail....

Amen
