431 The Fruits of Quieting Your Heart Before God

I

To come before God to accept His words as your life,

you must first be at peace before God.

Only when you are at peace before God

will He enlighten you and give you knowledge.

The more at peace people are before God,

the more they can receive God’s enlightenment and illumination.

All this requires people to have piety and faith;

only thus can they be made perfect.

The fundamental lesson for entering spiritual life

is being at peace in God’s presence.

Only if you are at peace in God’s presence will all your spiritual training be effective.

If your heart is incapable of being at peace before God,

you will be unable to receive the work of the Holy Spirit.

The purpose of being at peace before God

is to be meticulous and pragmatic,

to seek accuracy and clarity in God’s words,

and to understand the truth and know God.


II

Only when you are truly at peace before God

will God’s current words become clear to you.

You can practice the Holy Spirit’s illumination and enlightenment

more correctly and without straying,

grasp with greater clarity God’s intentions

which will give your service a clearer direction,

grasp more accurately the moving and guidance of the Holy Spirit,

and be assured of living under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Such are the effects achieved by truly being at peace before God.

When people are not clear about God’s words,

have no path to practice,

fail to grasp God’s intentions, or lack the principles of practice,

this is because their hearts are not at peace before God,

this is because their hearts are not at peace before God.

The purpose of being at peace before God

is to be meticulous and pragmatic,

to seek accuracy and clarity in God’s words,

and to understand the truth and know God.
