Daughter, you can rest today. You can enjoy and love and do what I have for you, which is rest. Rest, my daughter. Rest and dream of the wonderful week ahead. Yes, the wonderful week. You did not mishear. You did not misunderstand. It will be a wonderful week, only you will need rest to do it. Yes, daughter. I will be with you, and it will be wonderful. Do not doubt what my presence can do. Do not dread any scenario your mind invents, where I am not present. It is a lie. Because I AM.

Daughter, I know you want what is new. You want it so that it’s hard to enjoy today. Daughter, let go of wanting to pass today. Can you pass a day to get to another one? Can you jump forward to your fate? Can you jump backwards to change it? No, daughter, the only way is forward. Forward, my love, forward with me, forward into dark, light, redemption. Grace. Yes, daughter, it is another day, another day I know you wish you could miss. But daughter, all the days, all I have for you is good. Do you doubt it, my love? Do you doubt your Father has everything you need, each day? Do you doubt that this day is importunate? Important? Unimportant? No, daughter, none of it is important compared to who I AM. I alone make it important. My love, you must not dread today or tomorrow with its clamorous grind, its tasks, its quiet descent into loneliness, helplessness, doubt. Daughter, the day does not have to be the way you have imagined it. Your mind does not tell the end, the whole story. It does not have to lead to meaningless. It can lead to me. Every day. Every single day. Just open your eyes when you wake up. Do not stay asleep in the morning, in the night. Open your eyes to see what is ahead. Do not be beckoned to what is behind, what is in front of you begging to ruin, to trample, to slowly drag you into work, work, work, that leads to nothing. Daughter, close your eyes and find me, on those days. On this day. Close your eyes and see that where I AM is where you are. Where you are is where I AM. Daughter, do you see? Do you see that it is holy? Holy, in its difficulty, holy in its strife, in the struggle, in the pain, in the hope it brings. Yes, hope. Hope alone, my child. Hope is what will bring you home, home to light, to the place where all is seen, heard, believed, felt, touched, understood, appreciated. Daughter, it isn’t far away. It is here. I AM here. You are here, with me. So let’s go. Let’s go together into all the chaos and the dark and the light that’s shining in the only place that you need to be. Come through the forest with its darkened path, with its briars and trees, ominous and huge from growth, growth from water and sun and storms and rain and snow and light. Light. Daughter, come and see. Come and see that beauty is here. Today.
