2011.08.19. upon you, for My yoke is easy, and My burden is light». (Matt: 11/29, 30) Oh, it is better to carry God, man, for God is without sin and He is easy, and that is why I have told you to take My yoke upon you and My burden; to take My clean cross and to take it until My coming to you, so that I may give you then a sweet reward for God’s bearing on the shoulders of your soul by your submission. Oh, My loved people, in which the Father and I have been well pleased during these days! When man stays in submission according to the order set upon him or under which he comes, a man like that is better, is warmer and is more faithful to anyone, and it is easier for himself too and he becomes an easier burden for all to carry; however, when man has subjects by the order which is established like that, then he is more oppressed, more stressed and this is seen, for such a man is more restless, fuller of worries, harder to be borne by those around him, harder to be understood by those around him, who do not have to give an answer for all things, and all look after him as after one they should be afraid of, as one that should be obeyed, and this fear is good and it is not hard to bear, for it is easy to the one who has to obey, as there is someone to take care of him, only that he should love the work of the holy submission, the work of those who love God under God’s burden for man. Oh, you should not go wrong in your patience, for the patience which makes the man suffer is the man’s inner rebellion; it is not the patience, it is not the love full of holy patience and gentle by its love in man, but it is rather the self haughtiness in man; the patience which hurts in man is the unsatisfied man. He, who does not suffer with contentment, that one has neither fear of God, nor wisdom. In your prayer at the beginning of the day, tell this to the Lord, son: “Lord, do not let me forget that everything comes from You!” And then, you will not be uncomfortable with the man about whom you say that the puts a burden on your soul, as it may be possible that he also feels a burden because of you, and think about him also, not only about you for the burden between you and him, and do not let your love know what hypocrisy is, but rather, with it you should love your neighbor and not you, and in this way you will be able not to raise your voice in complaint about him for those that come from God and not from your brother, that covers God before you so that the Lord may speak with you, with your life, with your deed, when He wants to do this and to cleanse you from your self-opinion and to give you faith in return and the gift of the holy submission. You should know, My people, that love is that which gives itself; it is not that which waits for love, which waits for an interest. Oh, seek to love and to understand well this mystery of the love without hypocrisy in its work. Keep away from the spirit of discontentment, well sons, for this spirit brings you under a burden and it leads you to murmuring; it also leads you from behind by the self-love and it guides you to the man in order to complain to him, it guides you to the speaking between the two of you, sons; therefore, remember My word of old among you, which I said that when in Israel someone went wrong, all the people suffered, and again, remember of the ship by which Jonah fled away from My face and how, by his mistake, all in the ship were about to perish until he told them that it was his mistake, and he told them about it and that it was because of him that the waves were rising the sea upwards; then Jonah told them to take him and throw him into the sea and all those in the ship would be saved; and they did as he said, and then the sailors and all those in the ship prayed to God in fear for Jonah so that they may not have to be held responsible for innocent blood, but to be responsible only before God, and then I, the Lord, worked wonderfully at their prayer concerning Jonah and commanded the whale to swallow Jonah in its belly and to bring him safely on the shore, because it was by a prophetic word that I had sent Jonah to the great city of Nineveh, which had to perish because of its iniquity, just as Jonah could have perished into the sea if the 4
