"Oh that I had a thousand witnesses to praise and extol the goodness of the Lord ...." Thus it resounds in the ranks of the heavenly hosts, for the love and goodness of God is infinite. And thus He inclines Himself full of mercy to all beings, and He descends into the kingdom of darkness and seeks to bring salvation to the souls languishing there. And His love shows them the way upward, He constantly gives them His grace and sends them His messengers, the bearers of light, so that also in them, the desire for light is awakened ..... He meets them with all love and grace and preaches the gospel to them ..... He demands nothing more from them than love .... they should only make up in eternity for what they have neglected to give so far: love .... and they will be redeemed from all torment.
And in the deepest depths are souls, which still carry love in themselves, which was only valid so far for the opposite pole of God. To turn this love around, to move the beings to active help, is a continuous effort of all light-beings who stand in the will of God ..... And God's will is redemption, not damnation ..... And thus His ray of grace also shines into the utmost darkness, and His love's strength seeks to revive souls willing to receive - and if these souls offer no resistance, they feel the benefit of love and become soft and yielding .... and they desire the light .... their will becomes active ....
And so, after a long struggle, they break away from darkness and strive towards the light. The light-bearers know every movement of such a soul and try to take it into account, partly promoting, partly hindering. For such a soul cannot be left to itself. It is still powerless and often wavering; it must be led quietly and carefully to where it will become strong and willing in itself. And God's overly great love considers each soul according to it's feeling .... because He seeks to prevent any relapse. He wants that this soul also experiences His great love and mercy in itself and also joins the number of those who praise and glorify Him.
He takes perpetual care of every single soul, that it may reach the heights, that it may receive light and recognize it's Creator in ever brighter surroundings .... They shall love Him, not fear Him .... They shall desire His grace and serve Him willingly .... They shall likewise become love-receiving and love-giving beings who participate in the great work of redemption in the hereafter and again raise souls up from darkness to light. This is a work of love and can never be accomplished in any other way than through the deepest, most unselfish love .... because only love redeems, and God in His infinite love does not let any being fall into eternal darkness ....
And therefore everything that serves Him, should be active in a redeeming way - i.e. give love to all those who are of a dark spirit, because every spark of love enlightens their spirits, and only love is able to banish darkness, only love is the light that points upwards ..... And only love imparts the power to enter the way up. And therefore you who are willing to love, descend into the darkness and seek to redeem souls there .... Bring the light to those who walk in darkness, and always remain in love, because love is strength, and the beings lack such, and therefore you should supply this to the beings, so that they also can reach the height ....
Amen
