Impermanence of earthly goods .... their destruction ....

BD 2763 June 1st 1943

So that you do not lose yourselves to the world, God wants to show you how impermanent the goods of the world are and how little value they have because they can be taken from you from one day to the next. Your thoughts and endeavours are only concerned with earthly goods, and you spend most of your life energy on increasing them, but they are dead goods that you strive for, with which you can do nothing when you depart from this earth. You either have to leave the goods of the world behind when you die or you lose them beforehand. And the latter is a grace from God .... a grace that He grants you so that you may still come to realize. He takes away your earthly possessions, i.e., He takes away what your heart is attached to by having them destroyed or annihilated so that you should now realize that they were only illusory possessions whose possession appealed to you and that they are transient. Only when you have recognized this will you turn your attention to imperishable goods, and then the work of destruction will have been a blessing. And this is God's first aim, that people gain the realization that they should strive for other possessions. And that is why He takes much from you what your heart still clings to, He places you poor and destitute into the world, and then you are to prove yourselves, you are to willingly separate yourselves from what God takes from you, you are to desire nothing earthly but only long for what comes from the spiritual kingdom, and then you will also have spiritual success, and your earthly existence will also become much easier, for now you no longer need such evidence of the worthlessness of earthly possessions, there is no longer any danger for you, consequently you are allowed to possess them; For only then does danger exist when your heart is chained to matter, when its love is wrong, when it turns towards that which the human being is supposed to despise in earthly life and when he forgets his soul, which is entrusted to him, for the shaping of which he is responsible. And therefore an infinite amount will still be taken from people, they will have to give up everything, and they will be inconsolable and despairing when everything passes away before their eyes. This work of destruction is also only a work of God's love, because everything is and happens only for the soul of man, so that it learns to recognize its actual task, so that it collects spiritual treasures and leaves earthly goods unnoticed. Spiritual treasures last for all eternity, and only when the human being willingly gives up the earth and its pleasures is his heart ready for gifts of a different kind, for spiritual gifts which are offered to him through the love of the father Who wants to win back His children. For he only recognizes the value of these gifts when he has recognized the worthlessness of earthly goods, and then he strives with all his senses for spiritual goods ....

Amen
