To Gina Gumnerova [1]:

For Gina

To you I said last night. You worry a lot. You doubt a lot in Me and My faithfulness. You think of Me as a man, who speaks today one thing and tomorrow another. No, beware. This is from the devil. Whenever you are sorrowful and are sad I am then close to you. In the darkness you can feel my presence, but you cannot see me. You will see me when the eyes of your heart open.

Yes! There is no death. How little you [pl.] understand the heavenly life, the Divine life. You are worried by people. You often become cross with others. Have pity on them, they are ignorant and powerless. But do not be disheartened by this. The root of every tree has to be hoed and watered. You are this tree. The righteous ones are trees planted by the sources. Yes! Who has told you this? What I have told you is to bear fruit. And when you are planted in Me, the Father will fructify you. Read Prov. 29: 6-7. In this I will help you and you [also] will help. Listen to Me, I am always close by. This is why the sufferings come to remind you. The sufferings - this is my hand. Be grateful. Be joyous and cheerful. [2] Whoever suffers, him the Father caresses. The Power of God manifests in the human powerlessness. Powerful is only the One Father. Whoever wishes to be strong must abide in Me. You should grow in every goodness. Do not worry; for the others - do not be afraid. I prepare for you an abode. Do not be afraid. Perform the Will of God..

This is My law.
Your Good Friend,

(the sacred signature)

25 Oct 1904
