You know what is good for you? Releasing things to Me to handle. There are so many situations and concerns that are not your responsibility to “fix”, no matter how well-intentioned you are. I see you trying hard to plan, forecast, and prepare for the yet-to-be-known. Take a deep breath, then exhale your imaginings about the future, blowing them in My direction. I am assisting in every situation, helping to bring about Goodness – I promise! Allow yourself to ponder only the present, and leave the future to Me. In practicing this you can find peace again.

Others Have Their Pain
Others have their own pain. It’s not yours to fix. I am present in all of this! Let Me reassure you that healing is taking place while change is being affected. Focus on this as a time of healing, and trust Me. I renew, refresh, revive, and rejuvenate. See how I make all things new.
Walk Humbly Yet Confidently
You don’t have to prove anything to anyone. You can walk humbly yet confidently, knowing that I am aware of all you do. I deem you worthy and accomplished. Others already see your capability and respect you for it. It’s the deceiver trying to convince you otherwise, but you can recognize the falsehood in that way of thinking and not let undue anxiety take over. I’ve placed you exactly where you are needed today. Because I am with you and there for you, you can be at peace inside. You are loved and valued more than you can see right now. Work on trusting Me with this truth
Stay On Board
You have true purpose in this world. I am navigating the boat through murky waters for you. Stay on board and see where all of this leads. I’m taking you to new places, but you need not be anxious. Release your tendency to try and map everything out. Take the ride one day at a time, trusting that your future is safely in My hands.
Take a Break from Constant Pressure
I know you intimately, including your good intentions and efforts to do right in the world. Remember, though, that your value is not placed in works. Your worth comes from who you are innately, by My design. Your attributes, skills, interest, passions, and flaws all combine into a divinely beautiful package. Don’t be afraid to laugh at yourself today, enjoying your crazy, silly side, too. My ways are serious business but include laughter and joy. Take a break from the constant pressure to plan, preside, and predict. Look for the lighter side of things today as you practice relaxing. You can lighten up with My help.
Be Resilient and Confident
I see your tentative nature as the day begins. I recognize the insecurities and self-doubt behind it. These are not accurate, though. I designed you elaborately and intricately. Past experiences and regret need not dominate your Spirit. Watch how I make all things new, including the day ahead. You can be resilient and confident with the competency to handle whatever faces you and I together today. The key here is holding tight to the truth: I am in and near you, both within you and others you’ll meet. Greet this day with holy anticipation that Goodness will surmount any challenges in this divine meeting of Spirit to Spirit.
Being a Good Human
Being a ‘good human’ requires intentional effort. Choose to be fair, kind, and just today. Treat yourself and others with respect and dignity. “Take the high road”. You’ll find Me giving you a hand along the way, with guard rails in front of the risky places you could otherwise fall into if you’re not careful. Let Me be your Guide and Protector. I won’t let you fall.
Don’t Forget About Me
Don’t forget about Me. I know it’s easy to get caught up in thoughts and activities, inadvertently pushing awareness of Me to the back burner of your mind. Find ways to move Me to the front: notes, visual aides, intentional activities, and rituals help like lighting a candle or posting a note. The more you “invest” in awareness of Me and the help I have constantly available for you, the more calm and focused you’ll become as a result. Put Me in charge of your day, seeking to know, see, and experience all I have in store for you. Notice what this does to your Spirit, helping you manage anxiety. My aim is for Goodness and I long for you to partner with Me in every moment of it.
Interwoven for a Co-Led Mission
You have dozens of days behind you. Your life experience has been full of drama, challenges, and diligence. In the midst of it all, I am and have been here all along. Turn to Me, your constant Companion, as you step into this day. Ask Me to share your view so that I can guide our activities, decisions, and actions. We are interwoven and your work can be congruous and in-line with Me. Find purpose in knowing and trusting this day’s co-led mission. Remember that we have a long history of doing things together.
Regardless of What Others Think
Regardless of what others think or say about you, I know the truth. You are loved and treasured; holy and sacred in My sight. Run to Me when you are scared and start to doubt this inherent truth. Bring your anxiety before Me so I can help soothe your fears and realign your outlook. Look for My perspective of Goodness and follow after it. You can still be at peace even when your relationships are broken.
