gift, as it is written: « its lamp is the Lamb, and the nations will walk in its light ». The one, who commits himself to Me, gives light around and he warms up around and can do everything by Me, for I am the gift in him. If this fruit does not come out of him, he did not commit himself and did not receive to have in order to give and to be. They, who are written into the Book of the Lamb’ s Life, are those that knew how to give themselves over to have Me as a gift around them, as the light around them.
I come as a word in My book to teach every man what a commitment is and what the gift for it is, for too much falsehood lies hidden under the name of the Lord’ s people, under the name of the church. The church is a holy name. The holy citadel means church. It has no need of the sun of the moon 3 to shine, for its lamp is the Lamb, and the very glory of God illuminates it. Amen. The church is the man, who consecrates himself, and its light is the Lord, and the light shines in the darkness as it is written. The light is the word and the life is in it, and the life is the light of the people. He that does not become a word does not become the light around. The church is the man who illuminates around with its lamp in it, and its lamp is Christ. He, who gives himself over to Me, has light in him and illuminates with it around. Amen.( See the selection topic: „ The true church”, r. n.)
The man does not need any gifts. He needs devotion, and the one who is devoted works with those of Mine, as I worked. But what is devotion? What is it good for and what it brings to the man? It is the life full of humility and the love from heaven within the man, for it is not the love that makes humility, but humility makes love instead. The devotion takes the self-love out of the man and it brings the gift of humility to the man and this puts the man in the love, which does not seek for its own things, but rather for Christ’ s things, in order to give them all around. Devotion brings to the man the gift of humility, which makes the man beautiful and which protects the man from any evil in him and around him.
Child, grown with milk and honey, ask yourself, ask yourself if you are beautiful by this gift, which makes you into light, warmth, milk and honey around. Ask yourself if you are small so that any one may take you in his arms. Ask yourself if you are big enough to support those that learn to walk. Ask yourself if you are of any use to God with your spirit, soul and body. Ask yourself if you are content, for the true satisfaction is known only by the one who has the gift of humility, the gift which makes the man to devote himself and to know those that are required to be done.
Ask yourself if you are beautiful, the child of the love of My word; beautiful for God and for those around you. And if you are not, do not worry but rather humble to be able to work by humility and consecrate yourself. Amen. Devotion brings with it the gift of humility, which makes the man to be pleased to Me and to those around him. There is no humility without devotion. And there is no devotion without humility. It is not the love, which produces humility, but humility produces love instead. Otherwise love gives oneself self-aggrandizement and it is not useful to the man, and also not to those around him.
Love is consecration; it is a free sacrifice. It does not ask for its pay, and that is love. Behold what consecration makes and what gifts it brings with it to the man. But if the man does not have

Regarding the significance of the sun, moon and stars, see Genesis: 37 / 9-10. Today: the sun is head of the church- the Patriarch( or Pope of Rome for Catholics), moon, those dealing with domestic issues, community- that priests and our brothers are stars falling( spades) from the kingdom of heaven, r. n.
