NEEDY SOULS - REMORSE - LOVING HELP

When you have gone through this earthly life and have entered the spiritual realm, and when the remembrance of the long time before your embodiment as human beings is given back to you, then the time you have spend on Earth shall seem only a moment. You will recognize the great privilege the last phase of your development has been for your soul. Happy is the one who has made good use of it, and has therefore received blessings on entering the spiritual realm. For such a one has no remorse for not having made the best use of his earthly life. The remorse in the beyond is then far greater because the soul realizes that it cannot make up for what it missed or neglected on Earth, when the soul realizes what unimaginable suffering an unused earthly life has brought it, and how easy the short life as man was, which it did not value appropriately.

The regrets of a misused earthly life are such agony for the soul that it does penance and worsens its agonizing state. Life on Earth with its many possibilities is now over and the soul has to bear the consequences. Those who are barred from entering the realm of Light have to continue their development in the beyond with far greater difficulties than on Earth.

You do not know how distressing it is for such a soul in darkness, and what merciful Love they need to receive help. You should have compassion on them and give them your Love, or they cannot be redeemed because of their weakness. Only Love can give them strength. These souls hope and pray that people will give them such love.

Light-spirits can only help such souls when they in turn are willing to help other souls. But for this task their own will has to be strengthened and this can only take place through the Love of people on Earth. Lost souls who have not properly used their earthly life, or have lived without any spiritual endeavor are in great need, because they are without power and weak of will.

To help these souls in their need is one of the greatest works of Love, which you can perform as human beings. You should constantly pray for these souls. Through your thoughts, tell them to be active in Love. Also in the beyond, you should preach Love to them again and again. You must speak to them through your thoughts and send them strength through Love, which they feel as a blessing, thus relieving their suffering. They will thank you forever when you lift them out of their suffering by your loving help.

As soon as they can take part in the work of redemption and give relief to other souls by bringing them spiritual knowledge their own great need will be diminished. But they have to earn this through their will to help others. Their remorse disappears in the same measure as their will to help increases.

They realize that they are needed in the spiritual realm and their enthusiasm makes them forget their own misery. Their endeavor will now be to gather spiritual treasures in order to share them with others. The soul, by giving Love, which he neglected on Earth, creates a restitution activity for itself. It can then proceed with its development in the spiritual realm, thanks to the help conveyed to it through the Love of people on Earth, for which it will forever be thankful.

AMEN
