2689. By a spiritual mental image I was enabled to see that since the Lord Alone keeps all things in order, so that the universal, greatest human being, that is, all angels and good spirits, are in order, therefore whatever strives against it is nevertheless brought back into order, for no one can resist the order of the universe. So whoever is in order, that is, in truth, or has faith, cannot suffer violence from the evil, being protected by the Lord. 1748, 26 July.
