Her Leaf Shall

Jeremiah 17:7-8

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.

See Matthew 10:38-39; John 15:13-16; Ephesians 2:10; Ephesians 3:20

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.

Me with you

Daughter, you are mine,

So let’s start this day together.

Let’s go forward, me with you.

Stay with me, and

Don’t give up.

Be part of movement that matters,

That only goes

Forward.

Let me care for you – it is

What I want to do.

Let go and let me.

Let me work it out,

Today and every day.

It’s easier than you think, daughter.

Letting go is easy when you trust.

Trust me,

Let me,

Try me.

Together, individually

Daughter, my plan is best,

Even when you cannot grasp it.

It’s all right if you don’t.

Only I know it from

Beginning to end.

Only I gather my

Sons and daughters to

Provide for them all

Together,

Individually.

I give them the good things

I have planned.

I give them everything they need, and

They will not want

Together,

Individually.

Nor should you

Daughter, you are so loved,

So precious to me.

And nothing will change it.

Daughter,

Lean into it.

Stand on it.

Rely on it.

Live it.

Know it, and

Never doubt it.

As I don’t give up,

Nor should you.

Don’t give up on the One who

Knows you,

Loves you,

Holds you,

Guides you,

Shows you.

Don’t give up

On me.

See Deuteronomy 31:8; Psalm 37:7; Psalm 139; John 8:1-11; John 13:1-8; John 15:9-17; Romans 8:31-39; 1 Corinthians 13:7

Completely

Daughter, I never leave.

I never stop filling your heart, even

After the world empties it

Dry,

After it’s been brutalized,

Taken.

I never stop teaching you,

Helping you,

Guiding you, even

After you’ve left.

I never give up on you.

There is never a moment I don’t

Understand you.

I know you completely.

That is why I never give up.

See Isaiah 43:1-4, 43:13, and 43:25; Luke 15:11-24; John 13:36-38; Romans 8:31-39; 1 Corinthians 13:7 and 13:12; 2 Corinthians 4:16
