Every Give Yourself the Joy of Hard Work and Growth

God does not give Himself in experience to those that are unintelligent, unwary, lazy, self-satisfied, conceited, and, therefore, limited in the power of thought, will and life. God is for geniuses, the soldiers of the spirit; God is for the great in mind and the great in heart, the great in purity and the great in love, the great in faith, and the great in goodness and light. Simple souls can also experience God. But that simplicity has to be exalted to a very great extent. Otherwise, the experience of God is not possible, and the experience we think we have of God, is only a deception, a self-delusion. Therefore, we have to acquire all qualifications and work like geniuses.
