Purification of the soul .... destiny ....

B.D. No. 3541 September 8th 1945

The father's love wants the best for His children, even though the children do not recognize it. And thus the heavenly father will also take care of His earthly children, He will bestow His care upon them and guide their destiny as is helpful for them to attain maturity of soul. And therefore earthly life will often take a different course than people desire, yet God truly knows best what is good for each individual. Earthly time will soon be over and it shall be utilized in every way for the human being's soul, and therefore exceptionally heavy burdens are sometimes imposed on the human being by which he can already mature in a short time if he bears them devotedly and is thereby led closer to God. The father calls His children through this, and blessed is he who takes refuge in Him, who prays to Him that He may help him carry the burden .... This person truly has a greater advantage than an earthly life in earthly comfort can bring him, for earthly life will come to an end but the soul will not pass away. But the soul is purified through suffering and adversity and enters the beyond in a state of maturity, and it eternally thanks God Who helped it to achieve this through a difficult earthly life. Earthlessness may seem difficult, but God gives the human being the strength to endure it if he faithfully takes refuge in Him. And therefore the human being need not fear anything, no matter what may come .... If he establishes the child's relationship with the father he will be guided by the loving father's hand and always be under His special protection, for the father's love is certain for His child. And it will also feel this love, and the more it trusts Him the more faithfully ....

Amen
