Jeremiah 17:7-8

Category: Worry

Always, faithfully

Listen to this week’s word

Daughter, don’t be afraid.

Don’t be afraid to speak and write.

Don’t be afraid to accept the glorious love I have for you.

Don’t ever hesitate to run to me.

No matter what you’ve done or even if you’ve done nothing wrong.

I enjoy holding you.

I enjoy you.

You are never too much.

I never tire of comforting you.

Don’t worry about time.

Don’t worry that you’ll miss me or something important.

This is important.

Chaos is around you, always. But I am not chaos.

I am grounded.

I am peace.

I am constant.

I am here.

I am always, faithfully here.

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.

There’s more today

Daughter, this day is not lost.

There’s still joy in it to be had. Go get it.

Don’t worry about anything. I’m taking care of it.

I’m taking care of you.

The tears today have made you stronger. In your weakness, I am strong, daughter.

And you thought today would be just another day.

I always notice you.

Keep going. I love you.

I hold you by the hand. Read that word again, and take a deep breath.

There’s so much more for you, daughter.

I can’t wait to give it to you.

I’ll tell you everything you need to know to keep moving.

Remember that I love you. I want what’s best for you.

Keep moving forward. Rest.

It will all be fine, my daughter.
