4459 Hard struggle and suffering before the end.... safest help God’s word....

October 13, 1948: Book 52

You children of My love still have to hold out for a short time until you are released from the form. It is a difficult battle you still have to endure, yet it will not be too difficult for you because I am constantly close to you and grant you support at all times. Yet for your own sake you still have to go through suffering so that you will be purified and no longer need to fear the last judgment. Yet again and again I give you the assurance that you will only stay on this earth for a short time, that every day is still a gift in which you can gain much if you surrender to everything difficult that comes upon you. It will pass by.... and one day you will look up to Me full of gratitude, Who, through suffering, has placed you in the degree of being allowed to look at Me, Who, through suffering, helps your soul to mature more quickly, because time is only short until the end. You are all My children, I certainly see your suffering but I also know about the necessity of it, and thus the suffering is only love for you again, and you should always gratefully accept it from My hand, for nothing comes upon you which I don't know or deem good and beneficial for you. Yet you are never abandoned by Me, even if it seems as if I don't hear your prayer.... Every call from the heart reaches My ear, and I am always ready to help, only it is not always immediately recognizable to you.... The gift of grace from above.... My word.... will always be a safe aid for you if you think you are weak or completely despondent.... Turn to Me in prayer and then accept the answer by receiving My word, and peace will come over you and My strength will flow over you so that you will be able to bear everything I send upon you. You don't need to suffer, for My word is full compensation for everything you lack, which makes you miserable. Every suffering and every worry disappears if you read My word and let it penetrate your hearts. For I Myself am My word, and can you really feel suffering when I am near you? Prove your faith and heed My advice, let Me speak to you and nothing will touch you, no suffering will oppress you as soon as you make contact with Me....

Amen
