5485 Earthly hardship is often a revelation of God's love....

September 13, 1952: Book 60

My love for you is boundless and yet you often believe you have reason to doubt this.... You often feel abandoned by Me, earthly adversity approaches you overwhelmingly and you know no way out.... But I then have withdrawn from you just seemingly in order to be sought by you, because again and again I want to reveal My love to you anew by helping you. For the adversity is never so great that I cannot remedy it.... I want to reveal My love to you.... because I want you to return my love; your faith in Me and My might, your reverence for Me and your obedience are nothing without your love, for it alone lets Me find My children. And where there is love, there is also faith and reverence and obedience, but love is the most powerful aspect because it alone makes you happy. Just consider all that I do to win your love!.... Yet, if I prepared the most beautiful earthly life for you, if I also gave you everything that makes you happy on earth, this would just increase your love for the world but not for Me, Whom you don't see because your eyes are directed towards the world. For this reason I often have to withdraw from you, even though just seemingly; I have to let you fall into worldly abandonment, into a state of hardship and suffering, you have to recognize your own powerlessness and also the unkindness of your fellow human beings in order to then look for Me, to call for Me and then also recognize My great love for you after I have released you from your adversity. Your love will then awaken in you also and become but stronger, because you will recognize your most faithful friend and brother in Me, the helper from all adversity, the Father Who dearly loves His children....

You will not be able to resist My love forever, yet I cannot force your love in return, therefore I woo you with all patience without ever slackening My love, which created you after all. And every loving thought from you increases My love because it is a sure sign that I will soon have won you for eternity. Therefore know that you are never abandoned when you are in earthly adversity, know that I will immediately come to you who are calling for Me, know that I then want to only kindle your love, that I long for your call, for your love, like a father who wants to embrace his child in order to make it happy with his love. But love does not want to be one-sided, only returning love makes you happy, and this is what I want to receive from you.... I always desire you, yet you sometimes have to get into adversity, for you are in the midst of the world and your desire is still very divided, it is often directed towards earthly things.... and sometimes I then resort to means which are intended to turn you towards Me again, in order to then come forth with My love again, in order to show you My love again in such a way that you will also become inflamed with love for Me, so that you will become and remain Mine forever....

Amen
