Familiar Places of Hurt

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

I am familiar with all the places you hurt and all the things that stir up your anxiety. Come to Me anyway, even though things don’t feel great all the time. Come to Me and find that just for a moment, perhaps, all feels well and manageable. Allow that glimmer of hope to squeak through the cracks of those hard, cold walls of pain or fear. Whisper this truth: I am with you in all things. Nothing will be too much to bear. Let Me comfort you with an attentive reassurance that you are never, ever alone in your suffering.

Under the Power of My Love For You

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Let’s start this day out easier. Unplug from the myriad of tasks awaiting you for a moment and sit with Me. Talk to Me about what you treasure and value. Share your worries and concerns with My attentive ears and gaze right before you. Don’t look away or get distracted by your phone Stay with Me long enough to be truly reminded of how much I am involved in your life. I am your Constant Companion who wants so much to sustain you and give you peace and joy. Stay here long enough for your insides to settle down and your anxiety to filter away under the power of My love for you.

Holy Ache for Others

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

There’s a lot of suffering and sadness in the world. It’s good to feel compassion for others, and a holy ache for what they are going through. Remember, though, that I am involved in everything and attending to all people. It cannot be yours to fix. Turn to Me for help and reassurance. I am assisting all of My beloved through their hardships and on to a new day. I create amazing things out of the ashes. Take comfort in My healing arms.

When you feel a little sick or “off”, come to Me. Drink from My well of refreshment and healing. Take the load off your shoulders and sit with Me for a while. As you linger here, I will gently help you cope. Remember, I care about your every need. Move slower on these days, – just one step at a time is all that is needed. Before you know it, this challenge will have passed. I am with you and for you, always.

Annoyance, Judgement and Criticism

/ Martha York / 4 Comments

I love you even when you are annoyed and angry and your face scrunches up with visible disdain or criticism toward others. This doesn’t make you a “bad person”. I still love you, even then. With that said, I also want you to bring those annoyances, judgements, and criticism of others and lay it all at My feet. Release your thoughts into My capable, problem-solving hands. Inhale forgiveness and fresh perspective. What if I tell you I need those people right where they are and I want you right there with them? I have My reasons, which you cannot always see. Inhale trust for My design at work; exhale a greater acceptance of others, because all belong to Me equally.

It’s Okay To Not Be On Top Of Everything

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

I am still with you and for you, even when you feel like you’re coming up short. It’s okay to not be on top of everything all the time. Sometimes, this may offer others the chance to step up to the plate. You can trust Me to be God and to work things out even if you feel unprepared. Let Me be in charge while you take a step back, and watch My great hand at work. Find peace deep within as you trust Me to take care of all things.

Actions that Stem from My Heart of Love

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

BE LOVING. It’s that simple! Although I get it, – it’s not always easy to do, – especially when your feelings have been hurt. Ask for My help to soften your heart toward those who have offended you or let you down. I can heal all sorts of wounds – both physical and emotional. Every day you look more radiant to Me as you practice learning to love deeply. Forgiving and moving on, offering grace to others, – these are all actions that stem from My heart of Love, which is embedded in you. Trust your gut on when to use boundaries or when to ease up and let down your guard. I will help you determine which thing to do so that glimpses of My kindness can be seen in the world. You are My vessel for love.

Move Into the Passenger Seat

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

All is well. Even in times that feel chaotic and busy, this can still be a foundational truth. The true bottom line is that I am in control, and I make all things work together unto Good. Sometimes you have to move over and let Me drive, though. Life could be easier for you if you allowed yourself to rest comfortably in My passenger seat. Don’t be mistaken by thinking you have to plan for and control everything all the time. Try the ride from the passenger seat today and see what I mean.

Gentle Reassurance

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Cozy up to Me, like a small child who wants a story read before bedtime. Come close, with child-like hunger and trust for special time together. I am safe, comforting, and trustworthy. I recognize your vulnerable side that just needs to be held a while. When no one else “gets” that or sees you or provides the validation you desire, you can count on Me to be ever-present and aware of all your intricate needs. Come to My open arms for gentle reassurance. I’ve got you, My child; you needn’t be afraid.
