5304 God makes demands, but also gives all the means for beatification....

January 27, 1952: Book 59

He Who created the world, He also ensures its existence as long as it is necessary.... He Who created you humans will also ensure that you receive what you need, for He created you for a purpose.... just as the whole of earthly creation was created for a purpose:.... to guide the lost spiritual substance back onto the right path so that it may reach its aim, the reunion with the creator and father of eternity from Whom it once originated. If He has now created all things for this reason, if He has given you humans life in order to reach His aim, He will also do everything that is necessary for the preservation of the human being as well as the works of creation. He will provide you humans with strength, He will enable you to fulfil the task which leads to the aim. But you humans must believe that you have a task as long as you live on earth and seriously ask yourselves whether you live in accordance with this task, whether you make the fulfilment of the task your concern. You can never object that you are hindered, that you lack the means, that you are unable to accomplish what is required of you, for He Who makes demands on you for the purpose of beatification also gives you everything so that you can comply with His demands.... He has given you intellect, vitality and free will and, as the most important supplement, an unlimited supply of grace by virtue of which you can do anything you want.... You need not lack anything if you are only serious about fulfilling the will of Him Who called you into being.... And He will give you much more if you approach Him yourselves, for His love for you is unlimited and wants everything that serves your beatification. You only need to want to, then His love can be constantly active for you, then His wisdom and omnipotence can work in and around you, and He will shower you with His grace so that you can reach your aim. You don't need to worry about your earthly life because He will maintain it if you only think of spiritual life. You can leave everything to Him, for He regulates your earthly course, He smoothes all paths for you, for He is powerful, wise and exceedingly loving, and He arranges everything as it is good for you. He cares for His children like a father and will never allow them to suffer as soon as they trustingly hand themselves over to Him and His guidance. But He will never act upon you contrary to your will.... Therefore give your will to Him, submit yourselves to Him Who created you for the sake of a purpose, don't believe that you alone can maintain this earthly life of yours by your own strength but recognize and submit yourselves to Him Who is your creator and father from eternity.... Make yourselves His own and you will truly achieve everything with your devotion, you will thereby enter into your original relationship again, and the meaning and purpose of material creation and your earthly life as a human being will be fulfilled; you will be again what you were in the beginning.... beings filled with light and strength who are indescribably blissful....

Amen
