B.D.-No. 1847
The inner urge to do a good deed should never go unheeded. It is the divine voice that prompts the human being to do so, it is the quiet admonition to increase the maturity of the soul, and this will always be promoted if the human being does what the inner voice advises him to do. If a person looks around him with open eyes, he will see countless opportunities to be active in love. But he should not pass them by, thinking only of his own good and leaving his fellow human being alone in his need. Man can always be helpful, and he will never lack the strength to do so if only his will is good and he is in love. Only then will the human being fulfil the purpose of his earthly life and shape himself and his soul progressively. The path to the height wants to be paved with stones of love, then it will always be passable. Every good deed leads to many others, for love awakens reciprocal love, and if people all helped each other, love and thus God Himself would truly be among them; humanity could then only be good because it walks with God and God with it. Love redeems and frees people from the power that oppresses them, and that is why love should always be the driving force behind all thoughts and actions. Whoever has a heart full of love for his fellow human being will also be constantly active in love, he will try to reduce suffering, he will provide active help, he will help to carry everything that is difficult and always be a blessing to those around him. The world is a valley of suffering, and it has to be, as it is intended to give man the opportunity to develop in a serving way. Only then will he live his life consciously, i.e. he will recognize his purpose in life, which will only be fulfilled through constant service in love.... and only then will he attain maturity of soul, which is the prerequisite for entering a light-filled beyond, for only through service in love will all dross fall off, the soul will become free and it can now take the path upwards unhindered, it will come ever closer to its actual purpose, it will become love itself and push towards that which is also love.... It has allowed the voice of God to speak within itself, has obeyed it and has thereby come into closest contact with the One Who is love Itself....
Amen
