Jeremiah 17:7-8

Author: Natalie Lapacek-Trout Page 1 of 10

Complete

Daughter, I promise there is more.

More than you can fathom,

More than you can see.

Trust me, and

Come.

Come with the one who

Loves you,

Knows you,

Chose you,

Wants you.

Yes, daughter,

I want you here with me.

I tell you what you need to do,

Urge you to obey.

I ask because

I want you to do it.

I want you to do it because

I love you.

I want you near.

So come.

Come near, and

See

What I have for you,

How good it is.

See how I alone complete

You.

See Proverbs 3:5-6; Matthew 5:48; John 15:16; Acts 17:28; Romans 12:2; Ephesians 1:4-5; Ephesians 3:20; James 1:2-4

Walk

Daughter, you can’t walk

With those weights.

Put them down.

Walk with me, and

Be free.

Walk with me, and know

Purpose,

Strength,

Who you are.

Come, and

See what I will do.

Come, and

I’ll give you sight.

You won’t miss

What you’ve carried.

I promise.

Choose

Daughter, don’t rely on your plans,

Your actions.

Rely on me.

Rely on my plan,

My power.

With me, you can do

Anything.

Without me, you will do

Nothing.

Choose, daughter.

I will not force you.

But know

What  I can do.

Let go

Of all you clutch and

Come.

Found

Daughter, I love your heart.

I love your hope.

I love when they are abandoned

To me.

In abandonment,

You are found.

Your future is found.

Your next steps

Are found.

Your calling, your gifts

Are found.

Your dreams come to life.

Your heart,

Made for so much more,

Awakens.

Your strength,

Given by me,

Intensifies.

Your confidence

Arrives

When you find

Me.

Even more

Daughter, why is it so important that

It must belong to you?

You are more than

What you clutch.

What you hold

Does not define,

Does not fulfill,

Does not identify.

Only I can hold all of it.

Only I can hold

My daughter,

My love,

My chosen,

My masterpiece.

You are more than

What you hold,

What you desire,

What you dream.

Yes, daughter,

Even more.

Let. Go.

Daughter, let go.

Give me

What wakes you in the middle of the night.

Give me

What robs you of peace.

Give me

What you can’t figure out,

What you can’t see.

Give me

What you don’t understand.

When you give,

I will help.

I won’t help when you clutch

Your gifts,

Your prospects,

Your plans,

Your desires,

Your dreams.

Daughter, let go of them.

Trust me with them.

I will make them

Bigger,

Better,

Fruitful,

Beautiful,

More than you have dreamt.

But I can only do it

If you let go.

I won’t pry your fingers.

You must let

Go.

See Proverbs 16:9; Isaiah 43:16-19; Zechariah 4:6-7; Matthew 11:28-30; John 14:12-14; Ephesians 3:20; 1 Peter 5:7

Follow

Daughter, let me lead you.

To follow is to be

Strong.

Learning my ways will

Energize,

Invigorate,

Awaken.

Letting me work,

Letting yourself rest

And cry

And laugh

And love

Are your strengths.

Letting go is

Strength.

Strength to submit

Daughter, submit and come with me.

“Submit” is not a word you like, but

It is not what you think.

In submission, there is power.

My power.

My power serves

The weak,

The meek,

The ones who serve.

My power does not serve those

Who believe they don’t need it.

My power does not dominate for selfish gain.

My power defeats evil.

My power lives in you, daughter.

When you submit to it,

You have it.

You have it to do good,

To love,

To share light.

Submission is not

An act of weakness.

It is the way to strength,

Real strength,

In me.

No one is stronger.

Why wouldn’t you want that strength

To dwell in you?

Daughter, let me dwell.

See Psalm 32:8-11; Isaiah 55:8-9; Matthew 10:38-39; John 13:1-17; John 14:15-26; Romans 8:5-17; 2 Corinthians 3:4-5; Ephesians 5:21-33; Colossians 3:18-24; James 4:5-8; 1 John 4:4

Made for it

Daughter, ease your mind,

Ease your heart,

For I am with you.

Trust me

With what you’re going to do

Today, tomorrow.

Tomorrow is safe with me.

Don’t believe you will

Ruin it.

When you are with me, it will be

Everything you hope.

And more.

I want to give you abundance,

But remember,

It comes from me,

Not you.

Remember that

With me,

Anything is possible.

With me,

You are

Whole, complete,

Everything I made you for.

But only with me.

See Deuteronomy 31:6; Isaiah 41:9-10; Habakkuk 3:19; Matthew 19:26; Matthew 6:25-34; Matthew 28:16-20; John 14:12-14; Ephesians 3:20; Colossians 2:8-10

Closer and away

I’ll show you, daughter.

I’ll you show you the way, away from

Emptiness,

Worry,

Strife.

Away from

Meaningless

Work,

Worry,

Fear.

No rushing,

No stressing, just

Me.

Come on, daughter.

Let’s do today

And tomorrow

And all your days

Together.

Let’s celebrate each one because

With each one,

You get closer.

Closer to your destiny,

Your purpose,

Your assignment.

Closer to me.
