But Her Leaf Shall Be Green

Jeremiah 17:7-8

In my light

Listen to a reading of the text below

Daughter, you have things to learn before you can do more.

You are being prepared for the next steps. Trust in me and the process. You will be right where you need to be at just the right time. Trust me.

Believe that I am working and that it is good. Believe that it isn’t all for nothing. Believe you are moving forward. Believe me, not the world. Be like Daniel. Use the gifts I give you for good, even when all around you isn’t.

Trust me. Believe me. Rely on my love and my power to live without fear.

Keep reading. Keep studying. Keep writing. Keep asking. Keep seeking. Keep knocking.

Don’t be afraid.

There is nothing to fear.

I’m timing this just right. No one will interrupt. No one will interfere with my will for my children.

Keep moving forward with me. Take my hand and come. Come with me. Feel how much I hold you, how close I am. I am all you need, and I will never leave you.

I give you everything, my daughter. Use what I give you to defeat fear. Use it to remember I am in you, working and moving … always. Use it to find peace and strength in me. Use it to keep holding on, keep seeking.

Remember that nothing will stop me, and I am always on time. You won’t lose this, daughter. You won’t lose me. I won’t be going anywhere.

I will stay with you. Through every task, every menial task, I’m there. Find me in them. Seek me in them. Remember I’m there. Not just now but always.

Always, daughter.

I protect your body, your house, your mind, your family. Don’t worry about yourself or them. I do not bring disaster, only relief and clarity.

Don’t stop moving. Keep going forward with me. Keep walking, keep shining. I made you to shine with my light, and it is the brightest light. None other can match its brightness.

In my light, you are warm and safe.

In my light, you are you.

In my light, you are held and cherished and guided.

In my light, you will find all.

In my light, you will be my daughter.

The beginning of a journey

Listen to a reading of the text below

Daughter, I will not disappoint. I will not leave. I will not lead you to disaster. I will work out all these plans, and you have nothing to fear.

I see your heart. I know its murmurings, its longings, its desires. I know it so well. And I love it. I love you and all that’s in your heart. Even the bad things.

I love you completely, wholly. I love when you serve me. I love you when you sit, contemplative, and pray. I love when you write, when you use the gifts I’ve given you. It’s my delight to give you gifts.

You are my delight now and always. You can cry. It’s okay. I know it’s overwhelming. My love isn’t like any other. I just want you to know it, daughter. Trust it.

Trust when I speak to you. Write it down. Let this be your calling. You remember how you wanted to hear me? Now you do. This is how. This is how I made you to hear me.

I will always come. I never fail. Just sit still and listen. That’s all you have to do.

There is no hurrying or fearing or rushing with me.

I made you to hold this pen. I made you to write, to share. Trust in where I will bring you. Trust in what I’m doing.

Remember these tears you cried just now, with me beside you, holding you. You’re stronger with me. Your tears make you stronger.

Don’t believe the world. Don’t believe the lies. I am here. I am love. I am with my children all the time. I never leave, never stop. I long for you just as you long for me.

Don’t try to make sense of it all. Just stop and listen and remember. Take your time. Take your time with me.

Don’t be in a hurry to get back to life. This is life. I am life.

Keep writing. Keep going. Keep going forward with me. It’s coming. Restoration and release are coming. Rest in it.

Love, knowing it and trusting it.

See Deuteronomy 31:8; Exodus 33:17; Jeremiah 29:11; Psalm 138:8; Psalm 139:1; Psalm 37:23; Proverbs 3:5-6; 1 John 4:9-10; 1 John 4:16

A weekly word, just for you

Each week, I’ll post a fresh word for you. You’ll find how I’ve heard it from God and written it down. And you’ll see the scripture that’s a foundation for what he’s telling me and telling you.

No matter what I post, you can be sure one unshakable fact:

You are created by God for a purpose and to know him. You are his beloved daughter, and he wants you to know it every day.

Ephesians 1:4-5 and 2:10; Psalm 139:17-18; John 17:3; Acts 17:26-28

Read and listen to what he says about you, with new interpretations each week.

I’ll deliver new posts every Wednesday, so make sure you come back. Follow me on Instagram and Facebook for reminders and extra encouragement.
