So You Can Breathe Easier

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

I am your God, and able to be sovereign over your life in Good ways if you let Me. Allow Me the authority to help shape your thoughts and guide your actions today. Find how freeing it is to let go of all the things you think you can or should try to control, and instead watch with curiosity to see how I make things turn out when you give me free reign. You have the power to do that in your own mind and heart. Let Me in and allow Me to take over for a change so you can breathe easier. I love you and I desire to give you peace.

Listen with an Intent to Understand

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Be curious about all I have in store for you today. Instead of making judgements about those you encounter, listen with an intent to better understand and appreciate what they are sharing with you. Throw any hint of judgementalism to the wayside, including your own self-criticism inside your head. Allow yourself to be more at ease by accepting your own contribution as being worthy of attention and being enough for what is needed in the moment. All is well. You can trust that My hand is active in and all around your life.

Picture the Best-Case Scenario

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Sometimes you are uneasy inside, even without a reason. That general sense of anxiety and worry merely stems from old habits. In the past, you had to feel prepared for many unknowns on high alert because the people you were with or experiences you were in felt unsafe. I am and have always been your rock of safety and your shelter from the storm. Even now, I pull you out of anxious places and show you people and places with healthy support. Look to Me as you develop new habits of calm and ease. You needn’t worry about things that most likely will never happen. Picture the best-case scenario today and watch as I help make it unfold.

Take Breaks From Thinking Too Much

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Be wary of things that fill your mind with needless worry. Instead, take intentional breaks from thinking too much. Get up, soak in the views I place in your presence. Notice the beauty, the stillness, and color or sounds. Focus on whatever seems to catch your eye, and acknowledge My companionship in whatever you experience. Remind yourself that you are Mine. In momentary breaks like this I will bless you with the peace of mind you crave.

Surprises Around the Corner

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Today is yet another gift from Me. I want you to enter it with joyful anticipation of good things ahead. As you set your mind on a hopeful perspective, your actions and outcomes will follow. When the old ‘dread factor’ tries to pull you down, confront it sternly and say it doesn’t belong here. Don’t let it get you down. No matter what, there is always a reason to hope. Look for enjoyable surprises around the corner and see how I provide delight when you are receptive to seeing it.

How You Invest Your Thought Time

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

It is important to fill your head with messages that edify, not destroy. Be cautious with how you invest your thought time. There is so much out there in social media and on screen that feeds dark thoughts with distressing images that are hard to let go of. Pick something else to read or watch today; something that will brighten your mood or help you grow in compassion and insight to others. This is a kindness you can do for yourself and something that will have My hand in it. Think on things that are pure and lovely today, and see how this lifts your spirit.

Cling to Me

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Cling to Me as we move through life today, like an infant latches on to its parent. I will nurture, teach, feed, protect, and instruct you. This kind of dependency may feel foreign in your adult world, but it is absolutely necessary if you are to live the with-God life intended for you. It is simpler than the complex lifestyle adopted by those striving to be so independent. Picture Me carrying and helping you as you address challenges, knowing you don’t have to brace yourself to handle it all alone. Your smallness and dependence on Me does not equate with insignificance. Cling to Me, child, the One who loves you completely.

Trying to Be So On Top of Things

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

There will be time enough for everything. You get so tangled up in worries that you’ll forget an important detail, trying to be so on top of things all the time. Its exhausting watching you strive this way, often mistaking your regimens as being what I ask of you. I call for BALANCE. Rest is part of that balance. You don’t have to fear not being ‘productive’ all the time. Come play with Me and take time to attend to all the facets of yourself. It all fits into My grand plan for you. Find me as you rediscover what you love and unearth treasures you forgot you had all along.

Leave Your Baggage

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

You have arrived at My door. I greet you with great welcoming, and I attend well to the needs of My guests and children. You are both to Me: my invited visitor and My beloved child. Whenever you encounter problems, difficulties, conflicts, or challenges, remember who you live with and who you are coming home to. Leave your baggage at the entry for Me to sort out while you enter this space within My bright Light. I am a Good and loving God, and there is no room for cluttered worries in My dwelling place.

Your Weariness Needs Attention

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Why do you berate yourself so much? Nothing you have done will make Me turn My back on you. Breathe in My light by closing your eyes and becoming aware of My constant, loving companionship. I cherish you! Your weariness needs to be attended to. Find rest and store up trust for the days ahead. As you become more practiced in the art of releasing concerns and worries to Me, you will find I attend to each item and this allows you to rest even more deeply and thoroughly. Both rest and action must be honored for your spiritual growth.
