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.

I am planning to be present in every aspect of your day. You can count on Me to be there with and for you. Take comfort in this and be confident that you are in the right place at the right time with the right talents and abilities to be who you are and to do what you do well. I will grace you with all the skills needed. As you work on accepting yourself, you show others the way to be at ease, too. Enjoy your day.

Patient Endurance

No matter what discomfort you may be experiencing, you can still be calm. Patient endurance is a gift I can help you with. Loving Me and honoring My wishes doesn’t mean life will be pain-free, but I can assure you it will always be manageable. Make that your aim – to feel happy about how well you are managing despite any hardships. Pat yourself on the back for already enduring many challenges. I am pleased with how you embrace life’s difficulties with a positive and hopeful outlook, and I will help you do just that when you are still struggling . I am with you and for you, always.

Blanket of Love

Wrap yourself in My blanket of love and allow Me to warm you to your core. Be released from the discomforting chill of worry, stress, pain, and unrest. Wrap it tightly, and take enough time under it to allow Me to work on you. I can recharge you, soften your edges, and refocus your mind if you elect to stay here long enough. You can put it on anytime throughout the day and feel its medicinal effects on your spirit.

What Are You Thirsty For?

/ Martha York / 1 Comment

You don’t have to miss a thing. However, many of the things you are trying to juggle may be exactly what is throwing you off. What are you pursuing these days: Perfection? Notoriety? Worth? Possessions? Relief from discomfort? A problem-free life? It’s easy to be distracted by these things, which are often unrealistic and will not inherently satisfy. Sit with Me and be fully present to our relationship first. I am drawing you to a different well. Seek Me first, and find Me with you, attentive to all of your needs and wants. I may refine your desires, but I see them all and I love you enough to send My well of living water. I know what you are thirsty for.

No Need to Over-Indulge

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Taste. Breathe. These sensations can bring simple pleasures that I designed and crafted unique to each person. Some smells and tastes bring aversion; others, fond memories and delight. Take note of the smell and taste as your food is being prepared today or consumed to sustain life. Let Me ask you: are you eating to live, or living to eat? It is important to care for your body respectfully and not neglect it. I am a God who provides pleasure, comfort, and healing through food. There’s no need to over-indulge. I bring sustenance and Goodness, and there is room at my table for all to take, eat, and have their fill.

How to Spend Your Time

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Bask in the intimacy of our relationship today. Take joy and comfort in knowing I see you as you sleep, arise, and in your every move. Talk with Me often in your head, acknowledging things you notice, questions you face, and decisions you must make. I can help you choose how to spend your time and what to focus on wisely. Be inspired to do more knowing I place interests, goals, and perspective all as part of My great plan for you. Nothing you do or say goes unnoticed by Me. I don’t criticize your every move, either. I want you to see Me as your great encourager, motioning you to places, tasks, and conversations full of Goodness and meaning. I am powerfully present in it all. Know that you are loved first, then walk into your day engulfed in the grace of this truth.
