The Tasks At Hand

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

I want to fill you with satisfaction and zeal. Your joy is a very real part of who you are. Instead of being so anxious, I want you to seek My peace. Slow down. The tasks at hand will eventually take care of themselves. First and foremost, concentrate on the fact that I know the plans I have in mind for you, which are for your welfare, not dismay. Plans to give you peace of mind. Remind yourself to work on trusting Me and the Goodness I have in store, and see how this becomes a reality.

Cut Back on Guilt and Resentment

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

You are anxious and worried about many things. Only one thing is required: following Me and My loving guidance in your life. Stop worrying so much about what others will think. Cut back on guilt and resentment. Examine your “obligatory” commitments and see what you can release if it is no longer life-giving. Try getting involved joyfully by doing the things you love and that come naturally to you. It’s OK to hand over responsibilities to others who may be waiting for a chance to become more involved. Service for My Good was never meant to be such a burden. I love seeing a cheerful giver and I long for you to be at peace.

The Power of Loving Acceptance

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

You are My child, and oh-so-beautiful to Me. Look to see My eyes of love for you, which is real and powerful. I think of you as wondrous, kind, and full of Goodness. That is what others see in you and know to be true. They are drawn to you because of it. Let them know how pleasing they are, too, and find your irritability or anxiety becoming overshadowed by the power of loving acceptance. See how this releases unnecessary stress. No worries or fear of commitment are warranted. Let your heart be softened by relying on and trusting in the art of My design.

You Are Who You Are

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

You are who you are. I call on you because you have gifts and abilities others do not, and what you see enables you to respond exactly as I need you to in the moment. You recognize needs and are fortunate to do so. I will not make your yoke of attending to the needs too heavy; you can trust Me on that. One day, one step, one problem and solution at a time. There is enough time for everything. Don’t forget that I am listening to you and you can rely on My power to make changes happen.

Don’t Beat Yourself Up

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Be kind to yourself today. Actually, do that EVERY day. It will be easier to treat others kindly when you practice this on yourself. Don’t beat yourself up over everything you eat, say, and do. Rehashing everything in your head isn’t serving you well, either. The truth is, I love you unconditionally! I want you to enjoy your food, cut yourself some slack, and be more playful today.  Your kindness, like your compassion, will shine through. You are helping others in ways you may not even recognize.

When You Feel Defeated

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Cast your cares upon Me. Send Me ALL of them, – not just the ones you think are ‘worthy’ of My attention. I care about all of your wishes, dreams, and worries, so don’t hold back. I also know when you feel defeated. I am listening, resolving, and I aim to comfort you. Drink from My well of thirst-quenching water sent to soothe your innermost thoughts. Let Me help make it well in your soul. I am here for you.

Soothe Frazzled Nerves

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Take your time today. Move slower, – ‘mindfully’, as some call it. Try emptying your mind of all those to-dos and just be a listener and observer in the moment. See how much this soothes frazzled nerves and replenishes your reserves for the day ahead. Take in the quiet, trusting Me with how the day will play out. You don’t have to have it all mapped out. Take it easier today, leaning into trust of My design.

Handling Disagreements

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

In this world there will always be disagreements. Sometimes the wayfinding isn’t clear-cut. It’s okay to have your own opinions, but it’s also important to seek to understand others. Hear them out, and if necessary, agree to disagree. You can share your views diplomatically when they are tempered by My Grace. Ask for My help to ‘keep your cool’, and start every comment by considering the most loving and compassionate intention you can back it up with. I will give you the words to say and equip you with the way to phrase it. Aim to treat all with dignity and respect. Trust Me to help.

The Driver’s Seat

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

My desire is to give you true peace of mind. Today, try pulling back if you find yourself moving into an anxious driver’s seat. Slide over to the passenger side and hand Me the keys to take you where you need to go. I will help navigate the turns, and I know which speed is needed for each length of the road. Breathe easier with Me in the driver’s seat and you safely buckled in by My loving hand. I won’t steer you wrong.

Ushering You Away From Harm

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

You can trust Me. I never have back-handed motives or actions. I am a loving God who only operates in safe, kind, and caring ways. No matter who has treated you poorly in the past or how you’ve been hurt, I’m not like that. Picture Me standing by your side if memories of those encounters are clouding your mind. Rewrite that scenario by envisioning Me shielding you with a protective arm, ushering you away from the harm. Turn to Me and cling to the folds of My garments, for I am with you. Ask for My help to heal old wounds and release their grip on you. I am by your side, wishing you wellness and peace.
