PLITKA VJERA.... BOGOSLUŽENJE U SVAKO DOBA.... FORMALNO DRŽANJE ZAPOVIJEDI....

To što ti je milošću Gospodara došlo moraš iskoristiti na takav način da to pronađe najlakši mogući pristup ljudskom srcu. Čovjek je uvijek usmjeren samo na to da čisto duhovne stvari njeguje u drugom planu a ispred svega da stavi svijet sa njegovim užicima i zahtjevima. A takav jedan stav u životu jako teško može jamčiti stanje zrelosti duše.... jer samo nepodijeljeni rad i zalaganje joj u vremenu na Zemlji može pomoći do savršenstva, i svaki razvoj duše prema gore uvijek je upitan ako svjetovni interesi još prevladavaju. U tom slučaju se radi o slaboj ali i plitkoj vjeri, koja se izražava jedino onda kad je mislima o Bogu dano prostora u srcu.... što međutim zahtijeva svoje vrijeme.

Uvijek i u svako doba čovjek treba biti u vjeri, tj. dozvoliti da ona u životu prevlada, tako da on ne započinje ništa bez dubokog povezivanja s Bogom, da se dakle u svako doba trudi ispunjavati Božju volju, i da mu je na taj način prije svega stalo da služi Bogu, prije nego što služi svijetu i njegovim zahtjevima. Kad bi Otac u Nebu samo u određena vremena bio spreman za Svoju djecu na Zemlji, onda bi njima bilo zaista žalosno.... Čovjek uvijek treba prvo tražiti Boga, tad će isto tako i zemaljska aktivnost uredno napredovati, no Bog nikada ne želi biti zapostavljen ili da dolazi tek na drugom mjestu, kad se to čovjeku svidi.

Kad bi ljudi koji se drže samo formalnih molitvi to imali na umu, morali bi vrlo brzo uvidjeti da se istinsko Bogoštovlje ne može sastojati u tome.... Čovjek neprestano treba biti prožet Ljubavlju prema Bogu, tad će i u svakom trenutku dana moći imati razgovor sa svojim Stvoriteljem i ništa više neće moći započinjati bez da je zamolio za Njegov blagoslov. I tek to je istinsko Bogosluženje, kad se čovjek uvijek i u svako doba preporučuje Bogu i kad Mu je spreman služiti. Tko živo vjeruje ni ne može drugačije nego u neprestanoj vezi sa njegovim Gospodarom i Spasiteljem već na Zemlji pronaći najveće blaženstvo, osjećati će se sve više privučen Božanskom Stvoritelju i na koncu neće više ništa poduzimati bez Božje pomoći i blagoslova.... I svijet ga više neće mamiti i neće mu više moći nadomjestiti blagoslove vjere, jer Gospodar i Spasitelj je uistinu vrh sve zabave, a Njegova blizina i Ljubav nadomiještaju sve radosti zemaljskog postojanja.

Pa se vi stoga morate oblikovati tako da se žudnja za Gospodarom u vama povećava, i u istoj mjeri će vam se to ispunjavati, i vaša vjera će izrasti u život, i onda ćete biti aktivni za Gospodara iz vlastitog poticaja a nećete samo ispunjavati ono što se od vas traži putem zapovijedi. I tek tada ste postali pravi pristupnici Kraljevstvu Božjem, tek tada ste prožeti istinskom vjerom i time život živite na istinski Bogu-ugodan način....

AMEN

Shallow faith.... worship at any time.... formal keeping of the commandments....

What has come to you through the grace of the lord, you must utilize in the form that finds the easiest access to the human heart. Man's mind is only ever intent on cultivating the pure spiritual in second place and putting the world with its joys and demands first. And such an attitude will make it difficult to vouch for the soul's state of maturity in life.... For only undivided labour can help it to achieve perfection while still on earth, and any higher development of the soul is always called into question if worldly interests still predominate. This is therefore a light but also shallow faith, which only expresses itself when the thoughts of God are given space in the heart.... but this requires a certain amount of time. Man should always and at all times have faith, i.e. allow it to dominate his life in such a way that he does not begin anything without an intimate connection with God, i.e. that he endeavours at all times to fulfil God's will and thus makes it his first concern to serve God before he complies with the world and its demands. If the father in heaven were only ready for His children on earth at certain times, then things would truly look very sad for them.... And so man should always seek God first, then the earthly activity will also take its regular course, but God never wants to be put at the back or only come in second place when it is pleasing to the earthly child. If people who only keep formal commandments were to consider this, they would very soon have to realize that this cannot be true worship of God.... Man should always and forever be imbued with love for God, then he will also be able to hold dialogue with his creator in every hour of the day and will no longer be able to start anything without having asked for His blessing. And only this is true worship when a person always and at all times professes his faith in God and is prepared to serve Him. Anyone who believes in life cannot help but find the highest bliss already on earth in constant contact with his lord and saviour, he will feel drawn ever closer to the divine creator and will ultimately no longer do anything without God's help and blessing.... And the world will no longer irritate him, nor will it be able to replace the blessings of faith, for the lord and saviour is truly the epitome of all pleasure, and His closeness and love outweigh all the joys of earthly existence. And therefore you have to shape yourselves such that the desire for the lord increases in you, and in the same measure you will be fulfilled, and your faith will awaken to life, you will now be active for the lord of your own accord and not just fulfil what is demanded of you by the commandments. And only then will you have become true aspirants of the kingdom of God, only then will you be imbued with true faith and thus live life in a truly God-pleasing way....

Amen
