Jeremiah 17:7-8

Category: Waiting

Do, and let me

Daughter, let go of

Yourself.

Your accomplishments,

Your dreams,

Your failures,

Your debts.

Daughter, I paid for them,

For you,

Willingly,

So you can move forward

Each day,

Closer to all

I have for you.

I’m waiting for you to come.

When you come, you move

Forward.

But you don’t have to wait.

The perfect moment

Will never come.

There will always be

Doubt,

Fear,

Hesitation,

Anxiety.

But daughter, this is how

I teach you.

Take a step.

Move forward.

Do, and

Let me.

You have the choice.

I will not force you.

You have all you need.

I AM ready

For you.

Take a step, and

Don’t be afraid.

Take a step, instead of

Longing.

It’s time.

See Exodus 2:23-24; Exodus 3; Deuteronomy 8-9; I Samuel 1:9-11; I Samuel 2:1-9; Proverbs 4:12-13; Jeremiah 30:1-11; Jeremiah 31:1-14; Jeremiah 31:15-22; Lamentations 3; John 12:23-26; Mark 11:22-24; Luke 14:25-34; 1 Corinthians 1:7-9; 1 Corinthians 1:20-31; 1 Corinthians 2; 1 Corinthians 3:18-23; 1 Corinthians 4:7; 1 Corinthians 13; Hebrews 11

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.

Do you see?

Daughter, I love you.

You need not worry.

There is so much you think you’re missing,

So many good things that don’t come because

You don’t deserve it.

It’s true that you deserve none of it, but daughter,

I give it to you.

I give it all to you because I love you.

There is no condemnation.

There is no withholding.

There is no stern distance with me.

There is only love and peace when you come.

There is only grace and great joy.

There is only love, boundless love.

Oh, daughter, if you could only see

Each day

How I see you.

See Psalm 139; John 14:1-3; Romans 2:4; Romans 4; Romans 5:1-11; Romans 8; Ephesians 1:7-11 and 15-18, 3:14-21; Philippians 4:6-7; 1 Peter 5:7; 2 Peter 3:8-9

Open the gift

You can hand it all to me, daughter.

Just make sure you rest.

Rest is priority.

No work, no assignment, no task from me or man

Should surpass it.

Rest is my gift to you.

Use it, accept it.

Breathe it in and out.

When you accept it, you accept me, daughter.

When you rest, it is holy.

It is preparing you for all I have for you.

Remember that we have work to do together.

Remember that it will get done.

If it’s not today, it’s all right.

It will get done in the right time.

Now tend to your family, daughter.

Remember the garden?

Abide in me, rest in me.

It will all work out.

I’m working for you, daughter.

I work for those I love.

See Genesis 2:1-3; Ecclesiastes 2:18-26, 3:1-15, and 5:18-20; Isaiah 64:4; Jeremiah 29:4-14; Mark 6:30-31; John 5:16-17; Ephesians 1:9-11; Hebrews 4:1-11

Plant your garden

Daughter, I’m right here.

I’m right beside you, never to leave.

Your accomplishments will come and go.

Your assignments will change.

But build your home.

Plant your garden.

Don’t waste away on longing.

What you long for is given to you freely.

What you long for has been yours since the day you believed.

Freedom.

Love.

Peace.

Joy.

Rescue.

They’re all yours, right here, right now.

Believe it and you’ll see it.

You might even feel it.

To feel won’t always bring joy,

But to know will.

To know me, to believe me, will.

Believe me.

Come and believe me.

Daughter, I love you. You can believe that.
