Earthly activity necessary for servants of God.... profession....

My servants on earth are called to cooperate in the redemption of erring souls. This work requires the use of all their strength, which I will constantly increase in order to also make their earthly activity possible for them, which should go hand in hand with the work for Me but never be given priority. For again and again I give My servants the assurance that I, as their lord, will provide for all needs of life and thus also for their daily sustenance. But the fact that I provide them with an earthly activity is by no means insignificant. The will to serve Me must never be the cause of inactivity, otherwise its value is reduced. The will to serve Me must also be an act of struggle to a certain extent, resistances must be overcome so that the will first proves itself, so that it asserts itself and thus its seriousness is evident. Spiritual work must not be regarded as a pleasant game, as an activity which should fill an idle person's daily routine, which is why I do not approve of it when a pastoral activity becomes a person's profession, so to speak, because then the spiritual work is stamped as an earthly one and in the end it is only a profession, i.e. an activity connected with earthly income. Earthly activity, however, should consist of serving the neighbour, and only through this serving activity can the human being be enabled to also work spiritually, because serving with love is the basic condition for being accepted by Me as a servant. And therefore every earthly activity which is basically serving neighbourly love will also be blessed by Me, especially when the focus is on service and not on material success. Then the ability for spiritual work will also be developed, the human being will become suitable for the work in My vineyard, he will be able to accomplish both by using all his will which, however, has to give preference to spiritual work. This will always be possible, even if the earthly activity seems to take up all the human being's strength and time. Anyone who puts earthly activity before spiritual activity is not suitable for work for the kingdom of God in the redeeming sense, but likewise only spiritual work is not beneficial for the human being's soul. For the human being easily runs the risk of representing the doctrine of love purely theoretically and practizing too little love himself, the inevitable consequence of which is a slowly increasing inability for his mission, because love alone is the key to wisdom and the human being will only be truly wise if he is lovingly active, which, in turn, he is often given enough opportunity to do. And therefore My servants will always be engaged in earthly activity so that they will have to prove themselves, and the stronger their will is the more beneficial the spiritual work will also be, and the work for My kingdom will be done according to My will....

Amen

ZEMALJSKA AKTIVNOST ZA SLUGE BOŽJE.... ZANIMANJE....

Moje sluge na Zemlji su pozvane na suradnju pri spašavanju zalutalih duša. Taj posao zahtijeva ulaganje sve njihove snage, koju ću Ja neprestano umnažati kako bih im omogućio i njihovu zemaljsku aktivnost, koja se treba odvijati paralelno uz rad za Mene, no koja se nikada ne smije stavljati u prvi plan. Jer Ja Mojim slugama uvijek nanovo dajem jamstvo za to da ću se Ja kao Gospodar starati za sve potrebe života a isto tako i za njihovo svakodnevno izdržavanje. No to što im pridodajem jednu zemaljsku aktivnost nikako nije beznačajno. Volja za služenjem Meni, za povod nikako ne smije imati neaktivnost, inače je njegova vrijednost umanjena.

Pa i ta želja za služenjem Meni mora na izvjestan način biti borbena radnja, moraju se prevladavati prepreke, kako bi se volja tek dokazala, kako bi se probila i da bi postala vidljiva njena ozbiljnost. Duhovni rad ne smije biti promatran kao ugodna igra, kao aktivnost koja treba ispuniti dan lijenoga čovjeka, radi čega Ja ne odobravam ako dušebrižnička aktivnost na određeni način postaje čovjekovim zanimanjem, jer tada je duhovni rad opečaćen kao zemaljski posao i na kraju je još samo jedno zanimanje, tj. aktivnost koja je povezana sa zemaljskim primanjima.

No zemaljska aktivnost treba se sastojati u radu koji služi bližnjemu, i tek kroz tu aktivnost služenja čovjek može biti doveden u situaciju da radi i duhovno, pošto je služenje u Ljubavi osnovni uvjet za to da čovjek od Mene bude prihvaćen kao sluga. I zato je svaka zemaljska aktivnost, koja je u biti služnička Ljubav prema bližnjemu, od Mene blagoslovljena, posebno onda kad je služenje, a ne materijalni uspjeh, stavljeno u prvi plan.

Tad će se razviti i sposobnost za duhovni rad, čovjek će postati pogodan za rad u Mome vinogradu, on će biti sposoban činiti oboje uz predaju cijele svoje volje, koja međutim duhovnom radu mora dati prednost. A ona će uvijek moći biti vršena, čak i kad se čini da zemaljska aktivnost potpuno uzurpira snagu i vrijeme čovjeka. Tko zemaljsku aktivnost stavlja ispred duhovne, taj nije podoban za rad za Kraljevstvo Božje u smislu izbavljanja, ali isto tako ni samo duhovni rad čovjeku nije koristan za njegovu dušu.

Jer, čovjek lako dolazi u opasnost da čisto teorijski zastupa učenje Ljubavi a da sâm premalo Ljubavi prakticira, što kao neizbježnu posljedicu ima lagano rastuću nesposobnost za njegovu misiju, pošto je samo Ljubav ključ za mudrost i čovjek će biti uistinu mudar tek kad se Ljubav-no aktivira, za što mu se opet dovoljno često nude prilike. I zato će Moje sluge neprestano biti u zemaljskoj aktivnosti, kako bi se neprestano morale dokazivati, a što je snažnija njihova volja, to će blagotvorniji biti i duhovni rad, i taj rad za Moje Kraljevstvo biti će vršen u skladu s Mojom voljom....
