Assessment of compulsory services according to degree of love.
27. February 1949. B.D. NR. 4574.
All life power you should use to create for yourselves riches of immortal kind, i.e., everything, what you think and do, should have serving neighbourly love as reason, then the salvation of your soul would be secure for eternity. This demand on my part may appear unrealizable to you, and still I demand nothing from you, what exceeds your power, what would not be feasible. But think about it once that also your daily fulfilment of your duty can be regarded differently, that you can act in accordance with your duty, without feeling the least love about it for the neighbour, whom you therefore serve in accordance with your duty, but that you can also carry out every act driven from inside through love and that these acts, although they are also daily required performances, are assessed by me differently and increase your soul maturity. Love is everything; it assesses every act, and therefore a man can be however much loyal out of his correct nature, but without love it will always only be acts of the body, which I only pay worldly, but which do not earn spiritual wealth, because this alone only depends on the degree of love, in which also required performances are carried out. How much more can you gain, if you would use all life power to working neighbourly love, so that, what you do, is carried by the will to help, where your help is required. What you must do, where therefore your free will is eliminated, that are only acts for the world, although they can also carry a spiritual character – where therefore required performances are demanded, which certainly are actually works of neighbourly love, but through dutiful practice are assessed by me pure worldly, because the love of the heart is lacking in the process. I look at the heart and do not let myself being deceived through pious words or expressions; I know how far the heart takes part; but I bless everyone, who only out of the will to help also meets human demands, who carries out every required performance with inner joy, being able to serve the neighbour in this way, and who in this way also makes required performances to a voluntary activity and utilizes his life power in a way, which earns him richest award in eternity. Because he truly gathers spiritual goods on earth, and he will not enter the spiritual kingdom poor, but full of power also being able to be active there, to which his love drives him, while the most hard-working man on earth will stand powerless and poor at the gates of death, because he only works for the world, because serving neighbourly love never drove him to his activity on earth, but merely worldly demands were indeed fulfilled in eager fulfilment of his duty, but obeying necessity, not out of free will. And that is why the same activity and the same rate of output can earn completely different success – it can be paid pure worldly, but also earn immortal reward, and latter you should make your business, so that your earth life may not be idle, because never ever can you make up for that in the hereafter, what you have missed on earth. Amen. B.D. NR. 4574.
