Use the gift

In Love, Rest, Worry

Daughter, don’t forget.

Don’t forget how I love you.

Don’t forget how I hold you,

No matter where you are or what you’ve done.

You are safe with me.

You are forgiven.

You are never neglected.

I give you all you need.

I love without reserve.

That love does not include worry.

So put it away.

Put it away, throw it away.

Worry is not from me.

Worry is not what I have for you.

It is a distraction, a thorn.

Let me pull out the thorn and heal your hand.

You need only reach for me,

Not the roses the world extends.

They are soft and bright but full of thorns.

They are deceptive.

I do not deceive.

I only give the rose,

Not the thorn.

See Numbers 23:19; Psalm 131; Isaiah 41:17-24; Matthew 6:24-34; John 14:15-31; Romans 8:1-3 and 35-39; Ephesians 3:18-19; Hebrews 6:16-18; James 1:17-18

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.

Accept the gift

In God is with you, I AM, Letting go, Rest

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

Everything

In God is with you, Identity, Letting go, Reliance

Daughter, do you remember how I’ve told you

I can take everything?

Give everything to me.

Don’t hold back.

Don’t believe the lie

That it’s too much for me,

That I can’t help.

Don’t believe the lie

That you’ve made your own way,

That you’ve got it all on your own.

I am with you, daughter.

Always.

There isn’t a moment I’m not with you.

There isn’t a time I don’t cherish you.

There isn’t anything you can do,

Or not do,

To make me love you less,

To change my plans.

Don’t worry.

I’ve still got you.

I’ve still got plans for you.

You are marked as my very own.

I will never leave my own.

I can’t be away from those I love,

Just as you can’t.

See Deuteronomy 7:9, 8, 9:1-6, and 31:8; Matthew 11:28-30 and 28:20; Romans 12:1-2; Ephesians 1:11 and 2:1-10; 1 Peter 5:7

My yoke, not yours

In Forgiveness, Letting go

Listen to a reading of the text below

Daughter, why have you put off being with me?

I know you’re sorry for how you were today.

It’s okay.

There’s no condemnation, daughter.

I know it’s hard. I don’t underestimate how hard it is for you.

I know it is because of how I made you.

But don’t forget or shut out what I’ve told you.

Shift your focus away from the things that burden you.

They are temporary. They will not last.

Don’t you remember that I am willing?

See Matthew 11:28-30; Luke 5:12-13; Romans 7:14-25 and 8:1-17; 2 Corinthians 4:16-18; Philippians 3:12-14
