These links share just a glimpse of the story God is telling us. When you have time, read a chapter or two around the verses to get the context and see the whole picture. My preferred Bible translation is the New Living Translation, so all links will be in that version.

You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, my very own possession. You can read those words and know they are true.
I chose you for specific and special work. Look how we are working together now. I love when you listen.
I want you to be used to hearing my voice.
You used to think it wasn’t something you could do, but now look what I have done for you. You wanted communion and closeness with me, and look what I have done.
Keep looking at what I have done, child.
I’ll keep doing it. I’ll keep speaking and keep working through you.
I want you to be used to hearing my voice.
Remember that I am a good father who gives good gifts. Let others know. I want all my children to hear my voice.
You can help me. This is why I gave you your talents.
They are not selfish gifts. They are gifts you can enjoy, but they are helpful, too. They will help and do more than you can imagine, child.

I will never stop loving you and drawing you nearer. Yes, there is still more to do for me and you. Remember that I give you joy. And I will be with you, no matter what.
You won’t mess things up. You are my daughter.
I’ve chosen you for such a time as this. I’ve chosen your skills and abilities. I’ve chosen your husband and children, all for you.
With what I’ve chosen, you will grow and live and see me clearly.
Here and now, I am with you, and I’ll keep showing you the way. Be open to my way. Give up your own.
Remember how I am doing things differently?
Let me work how I work. It is much better, and you only have to listen and rely on me. Yes, come to me, rely on me, rest in me.
Remember this, and remember what I’ve done. Watch what I’m doing. You’ll see it, daughter. You won’t miss it. You won’t miss me because I am so close.
Remember that I hold time. I know what you can do in a day. Give me your day so you can make the most of it.
Shine my light today, and don’t grumble. Do your work, and remember that I have work for you. Aren’t you amazed at what we’ve accomplished so far?
Go, child, and be my vessel. Share my light. We have so much to do together, and I am excited for it.
You can be, too.
See the book of Esther. The link will direct you to chapter one and then you can read the other chapters by clicking the arrow on the right, or grab your Bible and get cozy while you read this amazing story. Friends, I encourage you to read the whole book to supplement this week’s post.
You do not know how much is ahead, but you can trust that it’s good.
Clear your mind from the worries you’ve had. Give them to me.
I know what to do with them. Daughter, you don’t, and that’s okay. It’s not up to you to fix.
I move and work in hearts. I open doors, and the right ones. All you have to do is listen and prepare your heart.
To prepare your heart means to know me better. See how I’m working and what I’m doing.
Pray and listen.
Ask and don’t be afraid.
Seek and keep seeking.
Knock if you think it’s the right door.
If I’ve led you there, it is.
And remember that I know your heart. I know you.
The enemy is telling you this is all silly, but that’s what he does. Don’t listen. Stay focused on me.
I’ve given you a heart to share, to love, to work, to gather others who know me and who will know me.
Trust that with me, you’ll get it right. On your own, you won’t.
You need me, and I’m so glad you do because I love you.
Yes, I’ve said it before, but I cannot say it enough! I’ll say it forever. I’ll say it over and over because you need to know it.
With my love, you are provided for, you are rescued and saved, you are exactly where you need to be, doing exactly what you should do to bring me glory.
When you bring me glory, others will know. Others will have doors opened. Others will know healing and be strengthened.
Others will know I am here.
It’s okay if you don’t get it right the first time. I am patient.
Your potential far outweighs any “trouble” you think you are. You are no trouble.
Do you think you are too difficult for me? No. I delight in being with you, teaching you, showing you, seeing you, holding you,
