    I hear the Lord say:

    Remember we are sailing! Let me supply the wind to your sails and keep you on course. Uncharted waters do not need to be feared. It just means that no one has been there yet! It means a new adventure awaits. It means surprises and delightful discoveries. It means possible rough waters but nothing I can’t handle. Set your eyes on Me. I’m the One to steer toward. By day or night, I will guide you. Trust in Me.

    Commit your way to the Lord,

    Trust also in Him, and He will do it.

    Psalms 37:5 NASB

     Let my spirit of peace calm your mind and body. Breathe deep of my holy presence. Worship me in the Holy of Holies. Bow before my Mercy Seat. Soak in the heavenly atmosphere. Bask in the light of my Truth. Fall prostrate before my throne. I AM who I AM.  All worldly desires and cares are stripped away.  Renew and refresh yourself at my well. Drink deeply of my living water. It brings healing to your bones. Arise and go forth, declaring my glory, praising with your lips and singing songs of praise and thanksgiving.

    Let us then with confidence

    draw near to the throne of grace,

    that we may receive mercy

    and find grace to help in time of need.

    Hebrews 4:16 ESV

  • IMG_7640.jpgI hear the Lord say: 

    I love being part of your day. I have much to share and to offer. As you seek my face and tune your ears, you will glean new insights into work, relationships, attitudes, thoughts and deeds.  I will impart wisdom and give good counsel.  I’m glad you are learning to walk with my light yoke instead of your heavy one.   The freedom from burden is energizing, isn’t it? Did you notice your happy heart when you chose my yoke and my joy? You can have this every day. Seek and abide – my way is the best way. Trust in me and be worry-free!

    For our heart is glad in him,

    because we trust in his holy name.

    Psalm 33:21 ESV

  • I hear the Lord say:

    IMG_7880.jpgLet peace reign in your heart today. Know that I am God and that I hold all things in my hands. My hands are more than capable to orchestrate events, provide shelter and comfort, to hold and caress, to shape and mold, to deliver from trials and tribulations, to walk hand in hand with you each day. Let the flow of my divine spirit infuse you so that you remain in fellowship with me throughout the day.

    Now may the Lord of peace himself

    give you peace at all times in every way.

    The Lord be with you all.

    2 Thessalonians 3:16  ESV

    I hear the Lord say:

    My wisdom is far reaching and widespread but it is available to you for the asking. Human wisdom is faulty but my wisdom speaks Truth and Life. My wisdom is forged in the heavens and transcends human thinking. Because I see the big picture, I can weave events and people together for my good purpose.  I desire my children to seek My face, my wisdom, my truth, with all their hearts. Seeking earnestly and diligently as one searches for a lost treasure – with that kind of zeal and dedication – will reap a bountiful harvest.  I have this same zeal for My children, whom I love and treasure.

    If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God,

    who gives generously to all without reproach,

    and it will be given him. 

    James 1:5 ESV

    I hear the Lord say:

    Faith is a treasure. It is a supreme gift. It is a promise that will never be broken. Your faith will grow as you endure life’s challenges. Nothing is too small or great for me to take care of. I see into the future and have great plans in store. My joy is complete in you. You are my precious child. I adore you! I enjoy spending time with you. I crave more time with you. Consider your days consecrated to me. I will share my wisdom with you as you seek my face.

    For the Lord gives wisdom; 

    from his mouth come knowledge

     and understanding…  

    Proverbs 2:6  ESV

    I hear the Lord say:

    As I tenderly care for the songbirds you admire daily, so much more do I care for you. My tender mercies are freely given as you rest in My embrace. My peace is your peace as you put your trust in Me. A piece of My heart is placed in your heart – it fits perfectly and causes all things to be orderly and function properly.  As your physical heart pumps life blood to your organs and brain, so my life blood pumps My goodness, My love, My peace, My joy, My abundance, My gentleness, My kindness, My healing power, My Saving power, and My Spirit of reconciliation. With each breath you take, be filled with My Holy Presence. Breathe in Life; Breathe out Blessings. Enjoy the day I have given you.

    And when he had said this,

    he breathed on them and said to them,

    “Receive the Holy Spirit.”

    John 20:22 ESV
