Details

Daughter, you are worried over details.

Breathe.

Loosen your grip.

Let time go, my love.

Do I not hold it?

My love, you have all you need. Guilt is not needed. Rushing and striving are not needed. Predictions and assumptions are not needed.

All you have is all you need.

Would I have made you any differently? Would I not have given you more, if more was needed?

Oh, my daughter, why do you believe you are lacking? What is it you lack?

Beauty? Time? Skill, knowledge, courage?

Wisdom? Wealth? Experience?

Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control?

Confidence?

Daughter, think of these things. Think of where they come.

Do they come from you?

Do they come from man or woman?

Do they come from beast or air or water or earth?

My daughter, where does any of it come from?

I have created. You will create. You are my daughter, designed to do so.

Would I not give you what you need?

Would I cut short your time before you could accomplish it?

No, my love. It is all, all from me, to you.

Will you accept it?

Will you grow with it?

Will you take my gifts and use them?

Use them, my love. Use them that others may know. I know this excites you. You have not been made just to create but to give. You so eagerly want to give. It is what I made you to do. It is why you move faster, plan for more.

It is why you do everything.

You desire to give what you create.

From where does this come, my love?

Why would I deny it to you? Why would I withhold or dangle it, only to take it away?

My love, you know this is not how I work. You know love is not that.

Daughter, you will be amazed at what you can do. I want you to do it. You cannot be stopped, unless you will it. Do not believe the lie of guilt and absence of me. My daughter, you have nothing to fear. Nothing to think outside of what I give to you. It is all, my love.

All.

Now do not despair.

Do not believe you are done or that time is slipping away. We move with time. We move with you. Not without. With you. Within.

With me, with us, with you, with all. Daughter, it is truly, wonderfully, amazingly all.

Do you believe it?

Do you accept it?

Will you keep saying “yes”?

See Luke 10:38-42; 1 Corinthians 2; Galatians 5:22-3; Philippians 2:5

Choose

Daughter, don’t rely on your plans,

Your actions.

Rely on me.

Rely on my plan,

My power.

With me, you can do

Anything.

Without me, you will do

Nothing.

Choose, daughter.

I will not force you.

But know

What  I can do.

Let go

Of all you clutch and

Come.

See Proverbs 3:5-6; Proverbs 16:9; Matthew 19:16-30; John 6:26-35; John 6:63; Romans 8:28-30; Philippians 4:13

Found

Daughter, I love your heart.

I love your hope.

I love when they are abandoned

To me.

In abandonment,

You are found.

Your future is found.

Your next steps

Are found.

Your calling, your gifts

Are found.

Your dreams come to life.

Your heart,

Made for so much more,

Awakens.

Your strength,

Given by me,

Intensifies.

Your confidence

Arrives

When you find

Me.

Only with me

Daughter, you can be my vessel,

My servant, my messenger.

But you can only do it with me.

Only with me

Can your purpose, your hope

Be fulfilled.

The world wants to offer you a replica

Of my plan.

It will look the same.

It will hold “promise.”

It will feel easier.

It will be false.

Nothing can replace or replicate

What I have done for you,

What I have for you.

But you must stay with me because

It is only through me.

See Proverbs 3:5-6; Matthew 20:26-28; John 6:60-69, 13:6-17, 13:20, 14:1-14, and 15:1-17; 2 Corinthians 4:7; Ephesians 3:20; Philippians 4:13; 2 Timothy 2:20-21

Let me

Daughter, let me guide you.

Let me speak,

Let me move,

Let me heal,

Let me make the way clear.

Let me take care of it.

I AM your provider,

Your guide,

Your advocate,

Your love.

I AM the one who sees

Your heart, always.

I AM the one who made it, who made

You.

See Exodus 3:11-15; Psalm 32:8-9; Psalm 139; Proverbs 3:5-6; Isaiah 30:21; Matthew 6:25-34; John 14; Ephesians 3:20

Trade

Daughter, only I can bring you what you want,

In ways you do not understand,

Sometimes do not expect.

Sometimes there is pain before the gift.

Sometimes there is waiting.

Sometimes there is heartache and tears and joy that seems

Distant.

But it isn’t.

Joy is near because

Joy is always with me, like

Hope is always with me.

Hope is a gift, and

It’s free.

Hope costs you nothing of value.

Yes, it can be uncomfortable.

It can be hard.

But what you trade for hope is

finite, temporary, ultimately

Useless.

Hope is never this way.

It will keep you standing, walking, running,

Dancing.

I don’t give up

Daughter, the tasks I give you are not burdensome.

They are designed for you and me,

Together.

I don’t give them to you and leave.

I don’t give up on you.

I don’t give up.

Did I give up on my children in the desert?

Did I give up after the wickedness, the flood, the idolatry?

Do I give up now?

Daughter, I am working every day,

In you, in all my children, simultaneously.

It is beyond your understanding,

But that does not make it less so.

See Genesis 8:20-22; Deuteronomy 8; Psalm 102:26-27; Proverbs 3:5-6; John 15:1-11; Romans 8:28; 1 Corinthians 3:5-9 and 13:7; 2 Corinthians 1:17-20 and 6:1-2; Philippians 1:6 and 2:13; James 1:2-4 and 17-18; 1 John 5:3-5

Empowered

Now you are released, daughter.

I know it’s been hard.

You want it all to be right.

You don’t want to be false.

But don’t worry.

Remember who guides you, who sees you,

Who protects you.

You are armed today.

You are empowered by me.

Your enemy has no place.

Remember how I said I have authority?

Authority over you and your spirit that your enemy

Desperately wants.

He wants to stop me.

But he can’t.

I have all authority

In heaven and on earth.

So don’t listen to the lies.

Listen to the truth and

Believe it.

Believing is your best armor.

You are a warrior with my armor.

With me, you are strong and know your place.

Don’t ever let anyone make you think otherwise.

Now go forward, knowing you are protected and

Empowered.

Be empowered to love,

To believe,

To walk where I have you,

To run when you need to,

To fight,

To pray,

To read,

To think,

To write, to be

My daughter.

See Matthew 6:25-34 and 28:18-20; John 8:42-47 and 10:10; Ephesians 3:16-21, 4:17-24, and 6:10-18; Philippians 4:13; 1 Peter 5:6-11; 1 John 2:12-14, 2:18-28, 4:4-21, 5:3-5, and 5:18-19

In, with, and through

Daughter, why do you wonder how

You can do what you do?

What you’re supposed to do?

What you’re called to do?

Why do you believe that somehow

It’s all you?

It’s not, daughter.

I am working in you and with you and

Through you.

The good things you do are not on your own.

It isn’t luck.

It isn’t because of your hard work.

It’s because I have made a way for you.

See Exodus 3:10-12 and 4:10-12; Deuteronomy 8:6-18; Ecclesiastes 2:22-23 and 5:15-16; Jeremiah 1:4-19; John 3:22-36, 14:8-26, and 15:4-8; 1 Corinthians 2:1-5; Ephesians 3:20; Philippians 2:13

Everything

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
