5075 The housefather‘s care for His servants.... vineyard work....

March 1, 1951: Book 57

I am love Itself, and love cannot deny you anything unless it would harm your soul. You must imagine My greater than great and infinite love if you become fickle in believing that I will help you when your trust is low and you are anxious in earthly adversity. I will not leave My own in adversity but will always release them from it when the time comes. But the fact that I let you get into earthly adversity is not arbitrary but a concern for your salvation of soul.... as well as a wise foresight of what will ease your path of life in order to be able to serve Me unhindered. You have entered My service and as My servants you are also left to the care of your lord. And I will always take care of you such that you can fulfil your service, otherwise I would truly be a bad householder. And I need you.... I need your work for Me and My kingdom, because salvation shall still be brought to many souls in spiritual adversity. Often you lack faith in it, often you become lukewarm and still consider the world too important, often you are doubtful about your important task, and then earthly adversities have to come again and again which strengthen your faith in Me and give you increased impetus for spiritual work. For it will have to be done ever more diligently the closer it gets to the end. And the fact that it is approaching the end is something I want to remind you of again and again.... It is only the calm before the storm which makes you become more indifferent at the moment, which sinks quiet doubts into your heart that the world will assert itself and that everything spiritual could be unreal. It is only a short delay, a short time, which shall be used to the utmost by My servants. And so that they can work unhindered, so that their work in My vineyard will not become a burden but a joy, I will take every earthly burden upon Myself and look after My servants like a good father looks after his children. And trusting in this you should not be anxious and timid, for everything is subject to Me and I can truly direct all events in such a way that they are a blessing for the individual. You should obviously recognize My concern and always become aware of My love, and you should repay Me for My love by eagerly carrying out what I have called you to do, by trying to supply your fellow human beings with what I offer you from above, because it is necessary that people are fed with nourishment from above which alone gives their souls strength and knowledge. You should offer them the bread of heaven which you receive from Me yourselves, you should distribute in love to your neighbour what My love gives to you.... Then you will work on My behalf, for the blessing of your fellow human beings, then you will be My true servants who can always be certain that I will take care of them temporally and also eternally....

Amen
