FJWL_01:45
         These who are no longer with their mate are not truly widows, for they are married to Me, and I am a Husband to them. I care for them and I love them. I provide for them, and would provide for them, but My provision is limited to the yieldedness of those around them. For have I not made My will clear through the Words of David that these are all your children, and that you are all married to one another?
         I would that all the widows be as married. I would that all the Family be as married to one another, that there would be no divisions and no contention; that those who have, share that which they have to make up the lack of those who have not. I say to you, husbands and wives, share with those who have lost. And those of you who have not, share with others who have not, or those who have lost, that all your needs may be supplied.
         I expect you, My children, to live the great law, the Law of Love, in all aspects--sharing and giving and supplying each other's needs, no matter what the need. For I gave unto you My full life; is it not therefore meet that you should lay down your life for your brethren, for these that are so in need, and for their children who so desperately need love, attention, care, and discipline?
         How is it that you look upon these widows and say, "Oh, your children are so undisciplined." Or, "Why can't you keep up and accomplish more?" Or, "Why are you so downhearted and discouraged?" I say unto you, lift up the arms that hang down and strengthen the weak knees, for love and care is the fuel needed to rekindle the flame in these ones (ML #2979).
