Oh, sons from everywhere, clean your gardens of all weeds and clean them of any blade, always, always, well sons, and keep a very secure watch so that other weeds and other roots may not pop out. Oh, sons, prune your fruit trees from all the dry twigs that may appear, lest the dryness may go deep, for the fruit tree weeps where the dryness appears and is ashamed of its angel, and the angel of the fruit trees also weeps, for the dryness of the tree is visible and is not like the man who covers his sin so that it may not be seen and then to put man to shame if it is seen. Oh, if you cannot do this with your garden, Christian, then you cannot do otherwise in your life with Good too. You should know and believe what I am telling you. There is no rain on the earth. It does not rain because the gardens are full of weeds near the Christian’s houses, and the weeds suck the water from God fully, the water of nourishing rain, and the weeds grow bigger than the flowers which enjoy God and the angels, and the weeds boast before the Lord among the flowers. The useless weeds for God and for man suck the Lord’s waters, in the same way as the Christian, who is weak in his sacrifice and life, sucks from the gathering for the brothers and grows big and strong in his body; that is, the one who is not dedicated or useful for God and for man. It does not rain because there are dry twigs among the fruit trees near the houses of the Christians, and the trees that have dry branches are ashamed of them. It does not rain because there are houses and gardens near them, which are not taken care or worked. I, the Lord, when I gave to man a place to live and a garden with fruit trees and flowers, I told him to work and to keep them working them and not to let any weeds grow in the garden of paradise, in the place where man lives, for the weeds are only tares, they are tares in the flowers just as tares are in the wheat, the tares that the devil sows and not God. It is not the same with the greenness for the flowers; it is not the same with the briers, the thistles and the weeds, which have a bad name and an ugly face and grow on the earth in places uninhabited by people. Anyone who does not work his paradise does not know to keep it, for this means watching: that is, the man to work his paradise and not leave it without being worked. I, the Lord, do not eat like man. I am nourished with the beauty and with the fragrance of the flowers, and man is nourished with the fragrance and the taste of the food, and he who takes care of his body cannot take care of God too, for he who takes care of God has put an end to his sin, with the worship of his body, for man has accustomed his body to eating all the time and eating much, and this gives him much work, much running about and much labor, from dawn to night, and the time weeps elapsing in vain and not redeemed, and man wears himself out uselessly for heaven, and he does not have any repentance for his lack of power to love God with his life. Oh, My people from everywhere of this word of Mine, it is written into the Scriptures a big and deep word in its meaning: «Unless the Lords builds the house, they labor in vain who built it. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain. It is in vain for you to rise up early, to stay up late, eating the bread of toil; for He gives sleep to His loved ones». Oh, sons from everywhere, when the Lord is absent from all these, then all things are useless and they pass away as well as man does. Behold, not all of those who are gathered together for the Lord dedicate themselves in the same way; not all get up at the same time early in the morning, so that their step may be 6
