LOŠE MISLI …. NELJUBAVNOST …. OSJECAJI…

Svjesno odbijanje loših misli najsigurnije je sredstvo za podizanje raspoloženja, jer tad se pruža otpor onim silama koje ulažu sav svoj napor kako bi odvratile covjeka od Boga. To zahtjeva cijelu covjekovu volju, a ako je ona oslabljena popuštanjem, dakle ulaskom u takve misli, covjek mora patiti, što znaci obuzima ga sumorno raspoloženje, koje ga tiska i opterecuje. I zlo likuje, jer njegov utjecaj postaje sve veci, a sve slabija volja covjeka i njegova moc otpora.

Takvi su trenuci odredena opasnost za dušu, pa opet covjek se sam mora osloboditi iz toga. Mora moliti, srdacno i pun uvjerenja, (tako) da Ga Bog iz toga izbavi. A molitva ukljucuje i volju covjeka, tako da ako se duša bori kako bi bila oslobodena iz te situacije, uz nju su dobre sile onostranoga, cim im se covjek srdacno moleci obrati, cim on sam cezne biti slobodan od tog pritiska.

No obicno covjek postaje malodušan i ne brani se, i utoliko teže je njegovo oslobodenje iz vlasti tame, i borba postaje sve ocajnija, stanje patnje sve neizdržljivije. Cvrsta volja je najbolje sredstvo, i covjek se u najpotpunijem duševnom miru može prepustiti dobrim silama, samo ako on njihovu moc i snagu pozdravlja. One mu pomažu sasvim izvjesno i ne dopuštaju da loše sile preuzmu prevlast nad njim.

Popuštanje, kad se pojave loše misli, je nedostatak vjere, jer loše misli usmjerene su protiv Božje zapovijedi …. Tko cvrsto vjeruje ispunjava svaku zapovijed koju je Bog dao ljudima, no tko je slab u vjeri, taj ce i zanemariti Božje zapovjedi, tako da ce se i njegove misli usmjeravati protiv tih zapovjedi, taj ce se lišiti sve Ljubavi, dakle gajit ce ne-Ljubavne misli, a to je namjera protivnika. Jer time on covjeka uzima pod svoju kontrolu.

U takvom jednom stanju cesto je teško ponovo pronaci put Ljubavi; covjek je pocinio nepravdu, ako gaji ne-Ljubavne misli (‘tvrda srca’), i on tad mora tu nepravdu popraviti time što se, prisiljen patnjama, u molitvi bori za dar Božanske Ljubavi, Koju je svaka ne-Ljubavna misao odbijala. Volja za Boga ucinit ce da covjek spozna svoju nepravdu, a tad ce mu i biti lako moliti Mu se …. No, sama volja mora se aktivirati, ona ne može biti usmjerena, tj. ne može prisilno biti ponovo upravljena na Boga ….

AMEN

Bad thoughts.... unkindness.... state of mind....

The conscious rejection of bad thoughts is the surest means to lift the state of mind, for then those forces will be resisted which exert all their influence in order to turn the person away from God. This certainly requires the human being's whole will, and if this is weakened by giving in, i.e. giving in to such thoughts, the human being has to suffer, i.e. a gloomy mood takes hold of him, which presses and burdens him. And evil triumphs, for its influence becomes ever greater, the human being's will and his power of resistance ever weaker. Such hours are a certain danger for the soul, and again man must free himself from them. He must pray, fervently and full of confidence that God wants to free him from this situation. The human being's will is also part of prayer, but if the soul struggles to be released from this situation the good forces of the beyond will help it, providing the human being turns to them for help, providing he himself desires to be free from this pressure. However, the human being usually becomes apathetic and does not defend himself, and the more difficult his liberation from the power of darkness is, the more necessary the struggle becomes and the more unbearable the state of suffering. Firm faith is the best means, and the human being can abandon himself to the good forces in complete peace of mind if only he affirms their power and strength. They will certainly help him and will not tolerate the bad powers gaining the upper hand over him. Giving in when bad thoughts arise is a lack of faith, because bad thoughts are directed against the divine commandment.... Anyone who firmly believes fulfils every commandment God has given to people, but anyone who is weak in faith will also disregard the divine commandments, and thus his thoughts will be directed against these commandments, he will be devoid of all love, thus harbour unloving thoughts, and this is what the adversary aims to achieve. For in this way he gains control of the person. In such a state it is often difficult to find his way back to the path of love; the human being has committed an injustice if he harbours unloving thoughts, and he must now make up for this injustice by struggling in prayer, compelled by suffering, for the attention of divine love, which every unloving thought had repelled. The will towards God will let the human being recognize his wrongdoing and it will then also become easy for him to pray to Him.... but the will itself has to become active, it cannot be judged, i.e. forcibly directed towards God again....

Amen
