In Faith, Fear, God is with you, Move forward, Rest, Worry

Let’s go, daughter.

There is so much for us to do together.

Don’t hold back.

Come with me.

Let me guide you through the steps.

You won’t fall.

Be brave when I tell you to come.

Walk to me, and you’ll know the steps to take.

Walk to me, and you’ll know that going

is resting.

Stop and rest now, child.

Focus on me.

Just me.

I renew you.

You can do today.

And you can do tomorrow.

You can do each step I have for you.

You can move forward with me.

I’ll hold you the whole time.

I’ll love you the whole time.

See Matthew 14:22-33

Take one step

In Beginnings, Faith, Feeling vs. believing, God is with you, Move forward, Trust, Worry

Listen to this week’s word

Daughter, what is coming is great.

Keep moving forward and don’t worry about it.

Come to me every day.

Come to me when you need direction,

Even if it’s just to take one step.

Oh, daughter, I want to be with you in every step.

Wasn’t it so with your own sons?

You never wanted to miss their steps.

You never wanted to leave when they did something new.

You are my beloved.

I don’t want to leave you.

And I won’t.

See Exodus 3:10-12; Deuteronomy 31:6; Psalm 16:7-11; Psalm 116:8-9; Psalm 119:105; Proverbs 3:5-6 and 4:12-13; Jeremiah 10:23; Matthew 28:20; Romans 8:15-18; 2 Corinthians 5:7; Ephesians 2:10; Philippians 4:6-7

You can be an outcast

In In the world, not of it, Trust, Worry

Listen to the this week’s word

Daughter, you’ve grown so much.

I remember that little girl, who didn’t care for such worries,

Who laughed and sang and played.

Bring her back.

Throw off the world’s expectations.

Cast away its murmurings and its dictates.

You can be an outcast.

You belong to me, to the kingdom.

You’ll never belong in the world,

And that’s how I want it.

No one will fully understand what I have for you.

I made it that way so you will need to come to me.

You will help others, but you don’t understand now.

Wasn’t it so with the prophets?

They were close to me, as you will be.

See Jeremiah 1:4-19; Matthew 18:1-4; Luke 12:22-32; John 17:13-19 (Jesus’ prayer to the Father); Romans 8:12-18 and 12:2

Listen to this week’s word

Daughter, your heart is what I love most.

I know what it wants.

I know what excites it, and it is beautiful.

Daughter, you are beautiful.

What you’re doing now, with me, is beautiful.

Doesn’t it feel better?

Doesn’t it make more sense for you to be with me?

It does.

It does because I made you, because I know you.

I know what’s best for you.

I know the right time to take you to something new.

You have to trust me.

Remember that this is your calling.

To trust.

To love.

To know me.

To share it.

To show it.

See I Samuel 16:7; Psalm 23; Psalm 34:18; Psalm 37:3-5 and 23; Psalm 40:1-8; Psalm 51:10 and 16-17; Psalm 139; Proverbs 3:5-6; Jeremiah 17:5-10; Ezekiel 36:22-27; Matthew 22:37-40; John 2:23-25, 3:1-21, and 14; Ephesians 1:18; Philippians 4:6-7

Be free

Listen to this week’s word

You can push away, but daughter, don’t.

Just as your heart breaks, it pains me when you push away.

Don’t you see I always want to be with you?

Don’t you see there’s no fear or rushing or questioning or hesitating with me?

With me, you are free.

Daughter, I know your heart, and I know that is what you really want:

Freedom.

There is nothing you desire more.

You want to be free.

With me, you are.

With me, you always will be.

With me, you can be that wild girl who dares to defy the world.

You can be that girl no one understands.

It doesn’t matter what anyone wants or thinks.

Daughter, I am what matters.

I am the one who sustains you and guides you and loves you.

I am the one who smiles on you

And rescues you

And won’t have you any other way.

Listen to this week’s word

Daughter, I know there is so much you want to do.

I know how your heart longs for more.

I know you.

I know your pain and your doubts and everything you’re questioning.

Be still.

Daughter, don’t be ashamed to cry.

Don’t pretend to be strong.

You can admit your weakness.

Come to me with your weakness.

Come to me when you can’t take any more,

No matter how soon you think it is.

I know your threshold.

I know your limits.

I have no limit.

I have no limit of how much I can help you.

Daughter, I can help you in everything.

There isn’t a single thing you have to do alone.

I am with you always.

Always.

It doesn’t matter where you are, what you’ve accomplished,

Or what you haven’t.

I’m still here.

Even now

Listen to this week’s word

Daughter, come to me now.

Your mind is racing, and you are afraid.

You are afraid of failing.

You are afraid of unhappiness.

You are afraid that you have been wrong.

Oh, my daughter, where is your faith?

Don’t push it aside for what the world has to offer.

Don’t push it aside when you think you can’t take any more.

Don’t push it aside to do things your way.

Remember that I am holding you.

Yes, even now, after you believe you’ve done everything wrong.

Yes, you make choices, and they’re not always right.

But let me redeem you and set it right.

Don’t worry that you can’t get back to me.

Daughter, you never left me.

You’ve known I’m here, yet you doubted.

Don’t doubt.

Don’t leave.

I will never leave.

Don’t give up on my plan.

Trust me.

Trust my way and my word.

See Deuteronomy 31:8; Psalm 34:1-7 and 18; Psalm 37:3-5, 7, 23-24, 34, 39-40; Psalm 138:8; Psalm 145:13-20; Proverbs 3:5-6; Isaiah 40:26-31 and 46:3-4; Matthew 6:25-34 and 16:21-26; John 20:24-29; Romans 8:1-2; Hebrews 10:19-23 and 32-39; Hebrews 11; 1 John 1:7-9

Listen to this week’s word

Daughter, let me carry the things that burden you.

I hear your heart.

Do you know how beautiful you are?

Daughter, I delight in you.

I love when you take time with me.

Believe that I can do miracles.

Believe that I can change hearts and take burdens.

What you carry isn’t meant just for you.

We carry together.

Remember my yoke?

We bear it together.

We walk forward together.

Oh, daughter, to be near you is my joy.

But I can only be near when you invite me.

We’ll go forward together.

We’ll bear it together.

Together, it’s not as heavy.

Together, it’s not hopeless.

Together, we can lift it.

Work with me, alongside me.

If you go where I am not, it will be harder.

Stay here with me.

Let’s do this day together.

Let’s prepare you for what lies ahead, daughter.

Let’s get to work.

My commands are not burdensome, remember?

Let’s have joy today.

Daughter, this is why I stay near you.

I don’t want the pain of me not near you.

I love you too much for you to have that pain.

I am always near.

I will never be taken away from you.

You lose people in your life, sometimes when you don’t expect it.

But you will never lose me.

People will say life is short, but my love is eternal.

Find comfort in that.

Share it with those who hurt.

Listen to this week’s word

People will disappoint you, daughter.

But I will be here.

I will be here to remind you who are you, what I did for you.

What I’m doing for you.

You see the holes in my hands.

You believe it, and you know it.

This is the love you’ve been searching for your entire life.

This is the love that transcends all.

Don’t be afraid to stand for it, tell about it, write about it, follow it, share it,

Seek it.

You can seek it always, child, because you will always find it.

You will never be lost when you seek it.

You will never be lost when you’re seeking me.

It is never fruitless to seek me.

It is never a waste of time.

It is never too late or too much.

You are not too much.

Seek until your feet tire, until your bones are weary.

I will heal.

I will restore.

I will provide rest.

I will provide love.

Every time.

Every single time, my daughter,

My masterpiece.
