Jeremiah 17:7-8

Details

Daughter, you are worried over details.

Breathe.

Loosen your grip.

Let time go, my love.

Do I not hold it?

My love, you have all you need. Guilt is not needed. Rushing and striving are not needed. Predictions and assumptions are not needed.

All you have is all you need.

Would I have made you any differently? Would I not have given you more, if more was needed?

Oh, my daughter, why do you believe you are lacking? What is it you lack?

Beauty? Time? Skill, knowledge, courage?

Wisdom? Wealth? Experience?

Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control?

Confidence?

Daughter, think of these things. Think of where they come.

Do they come from you?

Do they come from man or woman?

Do they come from beast or air or water or earth?

My daughter, where does any of it come from?

I have created. You will create. You are my daughter, designed to do so.

Would I not give you what you need?

Would I cut short your time before you could accomplish it?

No, my love. It is all, all from me, to you.

Will you accept it?

Will you grow with it?

Will you take my gifts and use them?

Use them, my love. Use them that others may know. I know this excites you. You have not been made just to create but to give. You so eagerly want to give. It is what I made you to do. It is why you move faster, plan for more.

It is why you do everything.

You desire to give what you create.

From where does this come, my love?

Why would I deny it to you? Why would I withhold or dangle it, only to take it away?

My love, you know this is not how I work. You know love is not that.

Daughter, you will be amazed at what you can do. I want you to do it. You cannot be stopped, unless you will it. Do not believe the lie of guilt and absence of me. My daughter, you have nothing to fear. Nothing to think outside of what I give to you. It is all, my love.

All.

Now do not despair.

Do not believe you are done or that time is slipping away. We move with time. We move with you. Not without. With you. Within.

With me, with us, with you, with all. Daughter, it is truly, wonderfully, amazingly all.

Do you believe it?

Do you accept it?

Will you keep saying “yes”?

See Luke 10:38-42; 1 Corinthians 2; Galatians 5:22-3; Philippians 2:5

Known

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

I knew, I know

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.

Forward

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.

With me,

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.

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.

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

Heaviness

Daughter, do not despair about today.

You feel heaviness, hopelessness,

But daughter, this is false.

It is not the truth

About who you are.

As my daughter,

You can stand up

And walk.

You can move

Without bonds, chains.

You can stand.

You can go forward.

There is no need to cower,

No need to sulk.

Let me take those burdens.

Let me take the weight.

You are free.

There is nothing to hold you down.

There is nothing to thwart my will,

My plan.

I AM fighting for you.

I love you too much to let you be taken,

To be weighed, measured by

Meaninglessness.

See Ecclesiastes 2:22-25 and 3:9-13; Matthew 11:28-30; Luke 5:17-26; John 5:1-11; Ephesians 1:3-11 and 1:18-20; Philippians 4:13; 1 John 3:18-22
