I want that you are happy. Not earthly happiness is my aim, because earth life is just short, measured at eternity. But an eternal life in happiness is to be allotted to you; and this eternal life is to be the prize for proving yourselves. Nothing more is to appear desirable for you on earth; your sight is to be directed towards life after death, and if you can give up everything with an easy heart, you are mature for eternity. The heart must be able to break away from the earthy, not compulsorily, but voluntarily you must be able to sacrifice what you love on earth; with the whole heart and the whole soul you must strive for what belongs to the spiritual kingdom, goods, which are denied to you by the earthly world, which no-one can offer to you than I alone and which I offer to you, because I want to make you happy. Learn to value the spiritual goods and to despise the earthly goods – and be certain that I let you have earthly goods what you need to be able to fulfil your earth task. Give yourselves completely to me as my own, and I will take care of you in every way; earthly and spiritually I will give to you and not let you live in want, but to be happy, your soul first needs spiritual food, which secures life in eternity to it. You men put the earthly needs in the first place and believe, without over anxious worry not being able to exist. But I know that there is much more a lack of spiritual supply, and this you must strive for yourselves, because I cannot force it on you for the freedom of will. Earthly food and earthly drink preserve your body always only a short time and can also never extend earth life, if I take you from earth. Spiritual food on the other hand secures you an eternal life. And what you once have accepted of spiritual food will never ever pass or become ineffective; you take it with you into eternity and build up your life on it. To be able to live for ever in happiness, you must also carry out an activity that makes you happy and therefore need a capital with which you can work, which you can hand out to the needy; you need spiritual wealth, which does not decrease, but always increases the more you give away of it. And I want to give you this spiritual wealth so that you are happy for ever. But you can only then accept it when you are of a complete empty heart, where my treasures can spread themselves, because spiritual treasures do not go with earthly treasures; a heart cannot hold both in itself, and you are free for which goods you want to keep your heart free. But if I now love you and want to let you be happy, I as wise father must also advise my children and help them to clean the chambers of their heart from unsuitable good, which drives out the true treasures and makes the reception impossible. And so I want to help you to break away from that, what the world offers you, what your heart still desires, but is hindering you to eternal life. And therefore consider all earthly failures as an aid from my side, to break away from the world and its sham goods; recognize in it my care, which is only meant for your final aim, to make free, exceedingly happy beings out of you, who know no grief and no worry any longer in eternity, but are always only happy and live – i.e. are uninterruptedly active in works of love. I want that you are happy; I want that I can supply you with spiritual food, because you need it for eternal life. Amen. B.D. NR. 4307.
