Jeremiah 17:7-8

Category: I AM

Meaningful

Daughter, worry is meaningless.

The world gives great importance to fear,

Puts it on display,

Champions it,

Legitimizes it.

But it is false.

Keep your eyes, your mind clear

To see.

The world has its priorities –

They are not yours.

The world has its idols –

They are not yours.

I AM infinitely more than these.

Today, do not worry.

Know that I AM here.

You don’t have to do it on your own.

You can do it all with me.

You can do all that is

Important,

Relevant,

Meaningful.

See Ecclesiastes 2:22-26; Matthew 6:19-34 and 28:18-20; John 14:27; Romans 8:5-6; Ephesians 3:20; Philippians 2:13 and 4:13

Let me

Daughter, let me guide you.

Let me speak,

Let me move,

Let me heal,

Let me make the way clear.

Let me take care of it.

I AM your provider,

Your guide,

Your advocate,

Your love.

I AM the one who sees

Your heart, always.

I AM the one who made it, who made

You.

And still

Daughter, I am not selective

In my love.

I don’t love “only if.”

No.

I love no matter what.

Unconditionally.

When you sin,

When you’re surrounded by sin,

When you’ve been ridiculed,

When you cause hurt or anger,

When your thoughts center on yourself,

When you long for more,

I am there.

I see it.

I know it.

And still,

I love you.

See Psalm 32; Psalm 117; Psalm 145:8-9; Romans 3:9-31, 4:13-14, 5:1-11 and 18, 7:14-25, 8:1-4 and 31-39

No one else

Loving God means keeping his commandments, and his commandments are not burdensome. For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith. And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God.

-1 John 5:3-5, New Living Translation

Daughter, do not waste time on the world.

You don’t need to worry about what it thinks,

What it wants.

Do not try to appease it or even defeat it

On your own.

Do not dwell on what it does.

Instead, trust me.

Trust in what I am doing in your heart, your life.

What I have for you is great and will move you

Forward.

But remember that you’re also learning.

And this is what you need to learn today:

I AM sovereign.

Believe it when you speak it.

Believe that no one else has that kind of power

Over who you are

And what you’ll do.

Believe that no one will understand it.

Believe that it doesn’t have to be understood.

It only needs to be believed.

See Exodus 3:13-15; Psalm 32:8-9; Matthew 14:22-31; Luke 24:13-49; John 1:5, 16:33, and 20:19-29; 1 Corinthians 2; Philippians 2:13 and 4:6-7; 1 John 5:3-5

Because I am with you

Oh, daughter, where is your faith?

Believe that I am working for you right now.

There is nothing to separate us

Except what you build up.

Don’t you see how you’ve grown since you first believed?

It is belief that’s gotten you there.

And it is faith that will bring you where I have for you.

Yes, where I have for you.

It is a new place, a new task, a new assignment.

A new way for you.

It is what your heart longs for.

It is the freedom you want.

It is the assignment you are designed for.

Don’t be afraid of it.

You will do it because I will help you,

Because I am with you.

How did Moses do it?

How did Jonah and Joseph and Daniel and Jeremiah?

They did it with me.

And you will do it with me,

But only with me.

See Genesis 39:2-5 and 19-23, 41:37-40 and 51-52, 50:14-21; Exodus 3:10-12 and 33:12-17;   Psalm 131; Isaiah 43:1-4, 10-13, and 16-21; Jeremiah 1:4-12 and 17-19; Daniel 6:16-23; Jonah 2; Matthew 14:24-31; Luke 8:22-25; Ephesians 2:8-10; 1 John 5:3-5

In, with, and through

Daughter, why do you wonder how

You can do what you do?

What you’re supposed to do?

What you’re called to do?

Why do you believe that somehow

It’s all you?

It’s not, daughter.

I am working in you and with you and

Through you.

The good things you do are not on your own.

It isn’t luck.

It isn’t because of your hard work.

It’s because I have made a way for you.

See Exodus 3:10-12 and 4:10-12; Deuteronomy 8:6-18; Ecclesiastes 2:22-23 and 5:15-16; Jeremiah 1:4-19; John 3:22-36, 14:8-26, and 15:4-8; 1 Corinthians 2:1-5; Ephesians 3:20; Philippians 2:13

Accept the gift

Daughter, rest.

Rest in me.

Remember that I am your love.

I am your peace.

I am the bearer of your burdens.

Not you.

This is my gift to you.

Accept it, child.

Don’t leave the gift unopened, unused.

Take it, accept it.

Enjoy it, cherish it.

Show it off.

Don’t hide it.

Use it.

And tell me about it.

Keep talking to me, daughter.

We will be working together.

But for now, you can rest.

See Exodus 33:12-14; Psalm 16:5; Ecclesiastes 2:24-25 and 5:3; Isaiah 30:15-18; Matthew 11:28-30; John 14:1-14; Hebrews 4:1-11; 1 Peter 5:7

Only I

Daughter, don’t worry over the little things.

Don’t worry over the big things.

Don’t worry.

Daughter, release your burdens.

Release your worries to me,

And to me alone.

The world will offer solutions.

Only I give you rest.

Only I take your burdens.

Only I heal.

Only I slow your mind.

Only I show you what really matters.

Only I AM.
