3347 Surrender to God.... submission of the will....

November 26, 1944: Book 43

The more devotedly you submit yourselves to God's will the clearer you will also recognize His will, for He places the knowledge of it into your heart. Whatever you want, whatever you feel impelled to do, is also His will, and therefore your life will now also be peaceful because you no longer doubt or hesitate to do something but confidently tackle everything, for God's will is active in you and this will always express itself in serenity and certainty. Devotion to God is therefore a prerequisite for a peaceful way of life, for an earthly life which is lived in mental balance, in contentment and happy tranquillity, for then God will direct this life, He will guide the human being and He will reward devotion to Him with His caring love which will always surround the earthly child. Anyone who has sacrificed his will to God also accepts everything as God's mission, he does not rebel because he is firmly convinced that it is good the way God determines it, because he is of the same will and no longer resists divine will. And this concordance of his will with divine will is already strength-giving on earth, for the human being consciously opens himself to His emanation of love, which will always make him happy when the human being gives himself to God in prayer. Then God Himself can work in the human being, His will can drive the human being's will to spiritual work. And everything the human being does is God's working in the human being, Who can therefore become effective in him because the human will no longer opposes Him. And then the human being is relieved of all responsibility, he has to be good, he has to develop himself upwards, he has to be able to record spiritual successes, also towards his fellow human beings, because all his wanting, thinking and acting corresponds to God's will, because he has given his will to Him out of inner impulse and uninfluenced. Then the human being on earth has already reached his aim.... he has submitted himself to God and completely relinquished his former resistance, he does not take a step alone but always with God, Who now ushers him into His eternal kingdom....

Amen
