6609 Urgent invitation to communion....

July 30, 1956: Book 71

Just always come to My table and get the nourishment which your soul needs.... Again and again you must take it to yourselves, it must constantly be able to refresh itself at the source of My love, and therefore you must also constantly let Me speak to you, and you must never believe that you have received enough nourishment, for I constantly speak to you because I know that you always need strength and reinforcement, because I must always speak to you so that your souls can become strong and mature. The well of life will never run dry, My table will always be laid for you, but you must come to Me yourselves and never believe that your soul could do without the bread of heaven if it does not want to harm itself. For what I offer it is My strength of love, without which it cannot become blissfully happy.... But beatitude consists of constantly feeling My illumination of love and yet always having a desire for it.... Thus you will never be full but constantly use nourishment which refreshes and strengthens you, which makes you feel your bond with Me ever more.... Thus you will constantly be allowed to partake of the lord's supper with Me and also have to do so if your bliss is not to be impaired. But My table of gifts is immeasurably richly laid and I want to share everything with you, I want to treat My guests to the best because they are extremely dear to Me. And a good host is happy when his gifts are desired and gratefully accepted. And thus I also want you to come to My table again and again in order to take supper with Me, in order to receive the food which I break and bless for you, which I offer you because I know that you need it and cannot receive enough of it. Love prepares the food for you and love distributes it to you.... Love beckons and calls you, it sends messengers to invite you, and love itself will never close the door but keep all gates open which lead to the source of life.... My messengers will guide you to where My gifts are distributed so that your soul receives good gifts.... This is why you should always find yourselves at My table, again and again you should open your hearts to My address, you should cultivate a constant bond with Me and never let Me go from you.... You should always desire My presence which, however, also proves itself through My address, through the influx of My flow of grace, through the presentation of My word, of the bread of heaven and living water which strengthens and matures your soul. Why do I tell you this? Why do I exhort you so urgently to receive My word? Because times will come when this approach to My table will be difficult for you, and because you have to be prepared for this time, that your souls have become strong and that you will then feel such a desire for My nourishment within you that you will also overcome these difficulties in order to only be able to partake of the lord's supper.... But for this your soul already needs much strength which it should have gathered beforehand. I truly provide for you abundantly, but you cannot let yourselves be fed and watered by Me abundantly enough.... Believe these words of Mine that you will need a great deal of strength and can only receive this strength through the right food and the right drink. For this reason, however, My love calls upon you again and again to shelter around the source which I have opened up for you.... And you should make use of this grace as long as it is easily accessible to you.... And you will then also be able to overcome resistance in order to come to the lord's table.... And you have to expect such resistance, for the end is approaching where My adversary will try everything to push you away from Me. Therefore you shall be strong and My gifts shall seem so precious to you that you will only desire them, that you will long for communion with Me and that you will always find your way to where I have laid My table for you....

Amen
