5783 God wants to be loved.... distorted picture....

October 8, 1953: Book 63

Only a few people can dictate My will into the pen, only a few have the understanding for what motivates Me to speak in direct contact, only a few understand that the father's love for His children is so great that He uses every means which promises success.... and only a few believe that it is the father's voice which wants to make itself heard because the children are in utmost need. And the fact that so few people believe it is due to the fact that My love is no longer recognized.... that people only still believe.... if they believe at all.... believe in a God Whom they fear because they have to answer to Him or honour because they acknowledge His power and greatness.... Love, however, would change this concept of God into a completely childlike view, a God of love would become their father, Whom they could entrust themselves to and Whom they themselves could also love.... But why don't people recognize Me more as an exceedingly loving father Who knows no other desire than to be able to enfold His children in His arms, Who finds His bliss in preparing His children for bliss.... Why do people only stand shyly and doubtfully in the distance, why does no longing for love drive them into My arms.... because they are no longer able to recognize Me as a God of love, as a father.... because they form a wrong image of Me.... because they are not informed about Me in truth.... because I am presented to them as an angry, punishing God Who demands an account for every sin and judges mercilessly.... But one does not strive for a being who is feared.... At best one conscientiously complies with all requirements, yet only out of fear but never out of love. But I want to be loved.... I want to possess My living creations' love and do everything to win it, for only a relationship which establishes love can make eternally happy. I alone know where to look for the cause, and I alone know how people can still be helped so that they recognize Me as a God of love and voluntarily strive towards Me.... I must bring Myself close to people, I must go to them because they don't want to come to Me.... And they must feel My kindness as a blessing so that they will also accept My gift without reluctance, which I bring to them:.... My word, which reveals Me to My creatures in such a way that they are able to love Me.... My word through which I reveal Myself as love. For they did not know Me until now, they have been wrongly instructed, they have formed a wrong image of Me.... My adversary has worked diligently to create this distorted image of Me because he wants people to no longer recognize Me, because he wants to stifle the love for Me in My living creations, which signifies the final return to Me. All you humans who are distant from Me don't know Me properly and I want to reveal Myself to you as a God of love, wisdom and might, as a father Who desires your love.... And therefore I enter into direct contact with you, I express Myself through an earthly child devoted to Me in order to take the path to all of you, in order to gain your love and to be able to bestow My love upon you.... And blessed are those who believe that it is I Myself, your father from eternity, Who speaks to you.... blessed who accept My words, recognize Me as the eternal love and no longer fail to take hold of the father's outstretched hand.... blessed who let themselves be drawn by Me....

Amen
