4761 The true peace of the soul.... not of the world....

October 19, 1949: Book 54

The world cannot give you true peace, for in it there is only struggle and strife. But where there is peace on earth, there the world is no longer considered, there the connection with the spiritual kingdom is established, there I can give you, as I have promised you.... the true peace of the soul.... But as long as you stay on earth you will have to fight for this peace against yourselves, because you are still children of the world and don't ask your father in heaven to grant you true peace.... Only by completely renouncing the world with its pleasures will true peace enter your heart, for then you will find Me and no longer desire anything else, then your heart will have become still in love for Me. Then I am its aim, its desire, its hope and its life.... Then the heart has found what it desired and nothing in the world now offers it a substitute.... My adversary has lost power over the one who has found his soul's peace in Me, and whether he now also wants to influence him again and again through the world.... the peace I gave it, the soul will no longer surrender for worthless goods or pleasures of the world. Therefore, first fight a battle against yourselves so that you may attain peace, so that I may give you victory, so that a true and real peace may be granted to you which will make you blissfully happy, because it is My gift, My promise, which is fulfilled in those who love Me and keep My commandments....

Amen
