About fasting and almsgiving
Oh , it is a great wonder for the man to give Me his house and his life to be able to make of him into a river of living water , as I am . The man does not know this happiness , for if he understood this happiness , he would become a river of the river of life and would water and give food and decorate the poor ones . Mercy is shown to the one who is merciful , and because the man does not give this mercy to the man , that is why he has not . He , who gives , gives to himself , for the spring does not get dry and this is the mystery of the spring , which flows . I am the spring of life and I have given Myself with it , and if I have given Myself , I have life and a spring of life and I have always given Myself , for this is how the spring is . I pour Myself out on the earth with the word of life , with the mystery of life , and I call out the poor to come and to receive life and to have , and to have in abundance . Amen .
I would give healing to man , but I will give it for Me , not for him . I would give him so that I may have something in him for Me , too . Man waits for the healing for him . Why should I give him if I do not give it for Me ? Why should I give him if he does not know to give to God after that God gives him ? Man gives to men and then he says to himself : “ I have done acts of mercy .” This is how man has learned to give to God ; this is how he knows how one gives God . No one can give something to God if he does not completely give himself to Him as you gave yourselves to Me , children who have with you My coming to you . The love for Me makes man not to stop for himself even for a little while , but only for God and only at God ’ s request . Amen .
It is not you who have sought after Me here , but I sought after you there where you were and I asked you . Who have I asked you from ? From you , sons , and you gave yourselves completely . You did not give yourselves to man , but to Me . This means great wisdom , and I am glad to see someone coming to Me as you did . However , behold , few know this kind of coming to Me and for Me .
Many would like to come to Me , but for themselves not for Me , sons . At My request there are few who would like to come , but there are many who want to come at their request , at their desire . When I asked the apostles in marriage , I went after them , and those who have come like that are the most loved ones . However , why are they the most loved ones ? Because they answer to the call that I make them for Me in order that I may give them work to do in My plan from the Father on earth . Blessed , loved and most loved is the one who hears Me when I call him saying : “ Come after Me !” and he wants to come , because I need that one , and this is the love for God . Amen .

Almsgiving is a great refuge for the one who loves it , and the man does not have to stay a moment without it . Give yourselves to each other as mercifulness . Give yourselves to each other with My things from your inner being for there is nothing sweeter than this mercifulness that I ask from you , teaching you to be satisfied by it through brotherly commitment , because the one , who gives himself , has .
