In a perfect world, mercy would be unnecessary, because mercy is the practice of meekness. Meekness, in turn, is born from the soft glow of love and it is love that has sympathy for everything which is struggling in powerlessness and despair. Take the mother in labour, for example, who is crying out her fear and pain, and in mercy and with love I come to her assistance. The new arrival also, who screams out his arrival and need of breath, I shall assist on his troublesome life path with love and mercy. But man cannot just receive mercy, he must also learn to give it to others with practical love and to develop in this, man receives practice in this in many ways.

These life practices mostly come in the unpleasant form of disappointments, despair or sickness, and again it is here where I carry man with My mercy. Also concerning man’s spiritual growth, it is sometimes difficult and through many tears, through falling and getting up again, I help and accommodate man in his religious struggle. What makes one human better than the other, so that he will be saved only on merit of My mercy, while billions of unbelievers must go down in hell forever, without My mercy. There is nearly not a single country or population who has not heard of Me in one or another way, but who still rejects Me in their freedom of choice.

If I should make them believe with My “mercy”, it would be coercion and not My love that would bring them to Me. Life and faith is one continuous struggle and with My love and mercy anyone who wants to can emerge from the struggle as victor. Just like I am giving My mercy without cost to you in unparalleled love, in the same way you must in turn, in your love and mercy, practically and unselfishly give to others.
