In Faith, Fear, Feeling vs. believing, God knows you, I AM, Trust

I know you, daughter.

I know fear, strife,

Sorrow.

I know what is from me

And what is not.

To teach is to show,

To love is to reveal,

Not to inflict,

Oppress.

Bravery can feel

Impossible when

You forget that I

Know you.

Come to the One who knows

Every pain,

Every hope,

Every turn,

Everything that steals.

Rest with the One who knows,

Who loves,

Who reveals, at the right

Time.

Come with me to lead,

To know,

To see,

To follow,

To trust that there is

So much more.

So much more awaits, my daughter.

More than you can see,

But I can see.

I AM in it now,

And I see it is good.

Come with the One who sees.

Come with the One who

Knows all,

Knows you,

Knows when your heart failed,

When it burst and you didn’t know

You could pick up the pieces,

When it refused to go,

Refused to feel,

Refused to hope any longer.

Remember the One who knows

You.

Who knows how to revive the heart

That fails,

That hasn’t seen for so long

What it’s been waiting for,

The life and light that it knows

Is there but cannot

See.

Daughter, come to the One who loves it

Even as it refuses, consigned to dark,

To fear,

To suffering in the way

Only a heart can.

I know because I made it

When I made you.

Daughter, I know you.

I know you and

Because I know you,

I love you.

The One who loves

Is the One who saves, who redeems

The heart.

Only I, daughter.

Only I

Know.

There is more, my love,

More than you know.

More than you can see.

More than anyone sees.

Do you believe it?

My daughter, do you believe that it is

Known?

Do you believe that what is known is not

Always seen?

It is known.

You are known.

You are known, seen.

Loved.

Loved as no other.

Loved as a daughter who can

Hope, who can know

That more is coming,

That more is who her father is.

More is what her heart already has,

Already knows.

You will see, daughter.

You will see and know and feel and love,

if you let me show you, make it

Known.

See Psalm 34:18; Proverbs 4:23; Matthew 11:28-30; John 2:23-25; John 3:1-21; John 6:35-40; Romans 8:26-30

These links share just a glimpse of the story God is telling us. When you have time, read a chapter or two around the verses to get the context and see the whole picture. My preferred Bible translation is the New Living Translation, so all links will be in that version.

Burn

By

On May 18, 2025

In I AM, In the world, not of it, Letting go, Listening to God

Daughter, you can’t listen unless

You let go.

Your mind is crowded,

And it’s hard to hear.

I speak loud, clear

When you truly

Listen.

It won’t always feel comfortable

Or safe

To clear, uncrowd.

But truly,

It is.

I AM here,

Above,

Beneath,

Behind,

Beside

Crowded

Noise, clutter.

I never left it,

Waited for you

To hear me.

Do you hear?

Do you hear, my daughter?

Do you hear

Hope?

Hope is loud, quiet,

Strong, soft,

Shouting, whispering,

Boisterous, unintrusive,

Demanding, relenting.

Uncrowd,

Free,

Let go,

Let me.

I will never fail.

I will never leave.

I will never be far.

I will be near when you feel lost,

Hopeless,

Because it is not lost, hope

Is never lost.

It is found.

It is championed,

Lit onto

A footpath, a spark

To fire.

The fire inside

My daughter

Burns

Even when she doesn’t hope.

Just think how bright

When she lets it burn.

Let go, my daughter.

Let go.

Let go and let it

Burn.

What will

By

On May 4, 2025

In Dreams and callings, Faith, Fear, God's plan, Less of me, more of God, Letting go, submission, Trust, Worry, Your will, not mine

Daughter, let go of

What will,

What should.

It can be up to you

If you really want.

But daughter,

Leave it

To me.

Not knowing is

Not easy.

It causes

Questions,

Fear.

But daughter,

Don’t fear what your Advocate

Has for you.

Don’t fear the new, or

Doing it again.

Don’t believe the lie

That you can’t,

That you’re done.

I have more.

There will be aches,

Pains.

It will not always be clear –

Why,

Where,

How, but you,

My daughter, can be

Clear,

Cleansed,

Purged,

Rid of

Fear.

See Exodus 13:17-18; Exodus 14:13-14; Exodus 33:12-14; Psalm 27:1; Psalm 33:20-22; Mark 5:21-43; 1 John 4:15-17

I can, I AM

By

In Beginnings, Dreams and callings, Faith, Fear, God is with you, I AM, Move forward, Readiness, Trust, Work

Daughter, it’s hard to move

With a burden.

Under my yoke,

With me,

You can rest and

Work.

You can sow

And plough

And harvest.

Daughter, you can

With me.

Don’t wait because

They lied,

Said you can’t.

Said you can’t see,

Can’t stop,

Can’t go,

Can’t.

Don’t let fear

Freeze the ground

Before you plant.

Stand, walk, work,

Look up and

Ahead,

Knowing

I can,

I AM,

Knowing

You can,

You are

With me.

It’s time

By

On April 6, 2025

In Empowerment, Fear, God is with you, Listening to God, Move forward, Purpose, Work

Daughter, it’s time to move.

Take my hand.

You don’t have to move

Alone.

You can move

With me, and

It will be better.

I am with you

Everywhere.

There is nothing to fear.

Rejection

Is not from me.

Fear

Is not from me.

Hopelessness

Is not from me.

Meaninglessness, mediocrity

Is not from me.

Daughter, you know

What comes from me.

You have felt it.

Hope,

Joy,

Peace,

Confidence,

Salvation,

Solace,

Gratitude,

Clarity,

Love.

You know it, child.

You know it because

You have them.

You know it because

You have experienced,

Learned,

Walked

In it.

And you can do it again.

Your best days are not

Behind.

They are ahead,

With me.

The only way to get to them is

To take a step.

Don’t settle for

What they offer

Where you are,

Far less than what I want

For you.

Daughter, be brave,

And take the step.

A step is hard,

I know.

But the next ones follow,

So you can stride,

Run,

Love,

Work,

Live without

The ceaseless burden because

I will take it

So you can

Move.

See Philippians 1:6; Philippians 1:29-30; Philippians 2:12-18; Philippians 3:12-14; Philippians 4:6-9; Philippians 4:11-13; Philippians 4:19

Do, and let me

By

On March 30, 2025

In Dreams and callings, Faith, Fear, Go to God, I AM, Less of me, more of God, Letting go, Move forward, Waiting, Your will, not mine

Daughter, let go of

Yourself.

Your accomplishments,

Your dreams,

Your failures,

Your debts.

Daughter, I paid for them,

For you,

Willingly,

So you can move forward

Each day,

Closer to all

I have for you.

I’m waiting for you to come.

When you come, you move

Forward.

But you don’t have to wait.

The perfect moment

Will never come.

There will always be

Doubt,

Fear,

Hesitation,

Anxiety.

But daughter, this is how

I teach you.

Take a step.

Move forward.

Do, and

Let me.

You have the choice.

I will not force you.

You have all you need.

I AM ready

For you.

Take a step, and

Don’t be afraid.

Take a step, instead of

Longing.

It’s time.

See Exodus 2:23-24; Exodus 3; Deuteronomy 8-9; I Samuel 1:9-11; I Samuel 2:1-9; Proverbs 4:12-13; Jeremiah 30:1-11; Jeremiah 31:1-14; Jeremiah 31:15-22; Lamentations 3; John 12:23-26; Mark 11:22-24; Luke 14:25-34; 1 Corinthians 1:7-9; 1 Corinthians 1:20-31; 1 Corinthians 2; 1 Corinthians 3:18-23; 1 Corinthians 4:7; 1 Corinthians 13; Hebrews 11

Daughter, why do you think

You will miss my direction?

You have heard me before

So clearly,

And you knew.

Why do you think

You won’t hear me again?

Daughter, you do not have to be

Good enough

To hear.

You do not have to

Measure up

To be near.

You cannot earn

My favor, even when

You believe.

I give to you because

I love you.

Oh, daughter, nothing you have

Is from you.

Nothing you have

Is from your hands.

What you have

Is given.

Material and immaterial.

Tangle and intangible.

Visible and invisible.

Seen and unseen.

Felt and unfelt.

Heard and unheard.

It all comes

From me.

I knew,

I know

you, and

Those I have for you.

I knew,

I know

How it will start,

How it will end,

How you will

Know.

Are you ready, daughter?

Be ready to see.

Be ready to come.

Be ready to witness and share.

It will come to fruition,

All your work,

All my work.

Just give the work to me, and

Let me do the rest.

You can trust what comes

From my hand.

Just take it, and

You’ll see.

Oh, daughter, you will see

More than you can imagine,

More than you can ask.

I do more when

You come with me.

So come, and

Be ready to go.

Come, and you’ll see

All I have for you.

You’ll see the gifts,

The good things,

The glory that awaits,

And you’ll know

It’s me.

Daughter, no one else

Can do

What I’m going to do.

That’s why it’s important to stay,

Because then,

You’ll know

And tell others.

Trust me, daughter.

Don’t be afraid.

Just come, and

Know.

Know me.

Know who

I AM.

Daughter, you have so far to go.

I am excited for it.

Aren’t you?

Look forward.

With me,

It will be joy.

With me,

You will learn

And grow.

It will all make sense.

With me,

You will see

What I’ve prepared,

Why I’ve called you.

Come with me, and

Don’t take anything, except

My hand.

Daughter, where I AM,

Where I call,

Where I beckon,

Is where you

Thrive.

It is not confusing or

Hard to see.

With me, all is

Clear.

That doesn’t mean there won’t be

Obstacles.

They will block

Your sight,

Be bigger than

What you’ve imagined or

Prepared for.

But let me clear

Your sight.

Let me give you

A light.

Let me make the way

Clear.
