5947 Work of God needed.... presence of God....

May 2, 1954: Book 64

I must be able to work with and in you if you want to reach your aim on earth, to become perfect or at least to mature to such an extent that you can enter the kingdom of light after earthly death. No human being can ever reach this aim if he excludes Me Myself, if he lives without faith in Me and therefore also without prayer, which ensures his supply of strength. Admittedly, he can live in love.... without faith in the beginning, but this will come alive in him as a result of a life of love.... Complete unbelief, however, also indicates complete lack of love, because a life of love already teaches the human being to think differently, namely in accordance with truth, and the human being also recognizes and acknowledges Me Myself in the realization of truth. But then the ascent is also assured, for then I can work in him, I can influence him, then I work on and in him. A person with love is without resistance.... he surrenders to My will, he allows himself to be guided and always willingly complies with My guidance. He does not always acknowledge Me whose mouth honours and confesses Me if love is still alien to him.... The acknowledgement of Myself need not be expressed with the mouth if the human being's nature is affirmative towards My fundamental nature, if he is active in love.... Then he acknowledges Me without words, for then his nature has become such that I can enlighten the human being's thinking, and then he is by no means a denier of Me, because he is already active with Me, i.e. he performs works of love with My strength. Without Me you will achieve nothing.... You need strength to ascend because you are powerless creatures as long as you live on earth. And this strength can only be conveyed to you if you acknowledge Me or seek and establish the connection with Me, even though you don't believe.... thus allow My presence in you by practicing works of love. "He who abides in love abides in Me and I in him...." The will to perform deeds of love also lets him come into possession of the power to perform them.... and I value the will and reward it by leading him to the realization that I am and want to be united with him. And then he acknowledges Me with the self-evidence with which he now performs works of love.... For love and I are the same, and anyone who has love within himself also has Me Myself within himself, and I can always influence him in accordance with the aim he is to achieve on earth. And therefore I admonish people again and again to live a life of love, because then My presence is also assured and My presence can only have a beneficial effect. With Me you will certainly reach your aim, but without Me your earthly life will be an idle one and the consequences will be extremely serious, for you will enter the spiritual kingdom after your bodily death without light and strength, without any realization at all.... your soul is spiritually dead and cannot enter eternal life in this state....

Amen
