ZAUZIMANJE I USLIŠENJE....

Prepustite se djelovanju Duha, koji vas uvodi u svu Istinu.... A gdje vam sumnja leži na srcu, gdje vam se javljaju pitanja, tamo se posavjetujte s Duhom.... što znači, molite Boga za prosvjetljenje putem snage Njegovog Duha, pa ćete i primiti razjašnjenje i biti ćete podučeni u skladu sa Istinom.... Potreba je na Zemlji neopisivo velika, gotovo da nema čovjeka koji time nije dotaknut; no zemaljska potreba (nevolja) samo je neznatna u poredbi sa duhovnom potrebom, čiji rezultat čovjeku nije očigledan te se zbog toga malo ili uopće na nju ne obazire.

Zemaljska nevolja ograničena je, pošto je zemaljski život za svakog čovjeka samo kratkog trajanja, u poredbi sa beskrajno dugim vremenom u vječnosti, gdje nesavršena duša 'trune' sputana tamom. A te patnje Bog putem zemaljske muke želi duši otkloniti, On dušu još na Zemlji želi pročistiti, kako bi je poštedio puno gorče muke u onostranom. Dakako da Bog čovječanstvo na Zemlji može 'poštedjeti', no to bi bio nedostatak Ljubavi, koji bi duše u onostranom bolno osjetile, s druge strane duše pune hvale gledaju na vrijeme muke na Zemlji, koje ih je poštedjelo neizrecivih muka u onostranom.

Jer, muka na Zemlji ljude treba privesti spoznaji, muka na Zemlji ljude treba navesti da traže vezu s Bogom i treba im pokrenuti volju da vode Bogu mio život na Zemlji.... Tek tada od njih može biti uklonjena muka. Dakle prvo mora biti uklonjena duhovna nevolja, prije nego Bog može od ljudi ukloniti zemaljsku nevolju. I ta duhovna nevolja mora biti pokretač za zauzimanje.... U spoznaji te duhovne nedaće i njenih poslijedica ljudi se moraju moliti za ljude zavedene u bludnju; Boga se mora moliti za snagu i milost za ove, kako bi došli do spoznaje njihovog stanja nevolje i kako bi stremili svijetlu iz slobodne volje. Jer zemaljska nevolja za te ljude živa je milost, koja baš i treba rezultirati tom spoznajom.

Čovjek lako naginje vjerovanju da je zemaljska patnja kazna za ljude koji ne žive u skladu sa Božjom voljom. I stoga Boga mole za milost, mole za svršetak zemaljskih nevolja, za skraćenje stanja patnje i tako na izvjestan način za otklanjanje sredstava milosti, koja međutim ljudima trebaju pomoći da se domognu duševne zrelosti. Doduše Ljubav prema bližnjima motivira ih na takvo zauzimanje, no ono bi trebalo biti usmjereno jedino duhovnoj dobrobiti ljudi, tako dokazuju svoju duboku Ljubav prema njima, i tada Bog može i uslišiti molitve, time što ovima za koje se zauzima u većoj mjeri dostavlja milost, kako bi lakše došli do spoznaje. No slobodu volje On ne može isključiti. Sami ljudi moraju imati volju da zakorače putem koji je pred Bogom ispravan, tek tada zauzimanje im donosi blagoslov, da se u njima rasvijetli i da patnja na Zemlji nije uzaludna.

Amen

Intercession and answering....

Pray to the working of the Spirit, who introduces you to all truth.... And where a doubt oppresses your heart, where a question arises in you, there consult the spirit within you.... i.e., ask God for enlightenment through the power of His spirit, and you will receive clarification and be instructed according to the truth.... The hardship on earth is indescribably great, there is almost no human being who remains untouched by it; however, earthly hardship is only minor compared to spiritual hardship, the effects of which are not obvious to people and which they therefore take little or no account of. Earthly hardship is limited because every person's earthly life is only of very short duration as soon as the standard is applied to the infinitely long time in eternity, where an imperfect soul languishes in the bonds of darkness. And God wants to avert these torments from the soul through earthly hardship, He wants to purify the soul while it is still on earth in order to spare it the much more bitter suffering in the beyond. God can certainly spare humanity on earth, but this would be a lack of love which the souls would feel painfully in the beyond, just as, conversely, the souls will one day look back with gratitude on the time of suffering on earth which spared them unspeakable suffering in the beyond. For suffering on earth should lead people to knowledge, suffering on earth should make people seek contact with God and cause their will to lead their life on earth in a way that is pleasing to God.... Only then can the suffering be removed from them. The spiritual adversity must therefore first be remedied before God can avert the earthly adversity from people. And this spiritual hardship must be the reason for intercession.... Recognizing this spiritual adversity and its consequences people have to pray for misguided people; they have to ask God for strength and grace for them so that they come to recognize their plight and strive towards the light of their own free will. For earthly adversity is a grace for these people which is intended to bring about this very realization. People are easily inclined to believe that earthly suffering is a punishment for people who do not live in accordance with God's will. And this is why they ask God for mercy, they ask for an end to their earthly hardship, for a shortening of their state of suffering and thus, to a certain extent, for averting the means of grace which, after all, are intended to help people achieve spiritual maturity. Admittedly, their love for their fellow human beings determines them to make such intercession, yet this should only apply to people's spiritual well-being, then they will prove their profound love for them, and then God can also answer the prayer by sending them more graces so that they can gain knowledge more easily. But He cannot eliminate the freedom of will. People themselves must have the will to take the right path before God, only then will intercession bring them the blessing that they will be enlightened and that their suffering on earth will not be in vain....
