Spiritual food ....
"Seek ye first the kingdom ...."

God feeds the hungry and gives drink to the thirsty .... He gives the soul and the body what they need for their earthly journey, for His love does not leave His creatures in need. He gives the soul the bread of heaven, and if it accepts it and gratefully feasts on it, He also takes care of the body, offering it what it needs for its earthly life in due course. He feeds the hungry .... who desire nourishment for the soul .... This is a prerequisite, for the food He gives to people from heaven is precious and is not wasted on people who have no regard for it, who are full of worldly pleasures and have no desire for nourishment of the soul.

But God does not take care of them in earthly needs either, but leaves them to take care of it themselves. They, too, will be able to supply the body's needs, for they are helped by the opposing power to tie them the more to the world and thus to themselves. But it will always require the strength of the human being himself, his vitality, to procure for himself what he needs.

But to His own God supplies what they need, provided they first desire the nourishment of the soul ..... His Word, which makes known to them the will of the Father in heaven, which preaches His love, wisdom and omnipotence to them, which instructs them, gives them comfort and strength and is true refreshment for the soul of the person who receives it with a hungry heart. He will confidently be able to leave the care of the body to God, Who truly knows what he needs and in fatherly love takes care that His children do not suffer lack. He lovingly offers His Word, the nourishment of the soul, to people so that they can fulfil their earthly task and successfully complete the earthly change ....

He wants to make it possible for them to reach the goal, to become free from every external form and to enter eternity as beings of light. This is why He gave life to the human being ...., and thus He will also maintain it until the human being has reached his goal if he seriously strives for it.

And thus He will also provide the body with what it needs to sustain itself, He will take good care of it so that it can fulfil its earthly task. He feeds and waters people spiritually and earthly .... Yet He demands the souls' hunger and thirst .... This is a condition which man must fulfil in order not to be deprived of the Father's care, he must bear a desire for spiritual nourishment, because this is at the same time a desire for God Himself.

To be fed by God Himself is a gift of grace of immeasurable value .... But God never gives out His gift to unworthy people who do not respect the Giver and also spurn His gift if it were offered to them. Spiritual nourishment is incomparably more valuable and the life of the soul more important than the preservation of the body, the earthly body, which is perishable.

But God does not let the mortal shell of man hunger and languish, if his soul strives to gain eternal life .... if his soul hungers for the bread of heaven, for the nourishment which Fatherly love offers it as the Word of God, which gives strength for upward development .... He gives the body what it needs, as well as the human being puts the nourishment of the soul before all other needs, and He will guide the human being through every adversity of the time according to wise discretion, always taking the human being's spiritual life into account, He will consider him as it is good for his soul, for His promise is 'Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and all else shall be added unto you ....'

Amen
