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.

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.

Your Uniqueness Reaches Others

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

I wish you would stop being so critical of yourself. I created you just as you are so that your uniqueness reaches others. I do My best work in and through you when you stop judging yourself internally and follow your God-given instincts. Speak when you feel urged to; share when I nudge you; listen with ears that ear; notice and attend to others with eyes that see. You are good at all of this because of how I made you and because of your faith and trust in how I work within you. I will bless your encounters with others when you intentionally choose to trust your well-being.

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.

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.

Watch Your Step

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Steady your feet. You have a long road ahead of you, and it’s important that you take your time to get your footing. The path isn’t always neat or easy, so you have to watch your step. This requires keeping your eyes on the nearest parts of the trail and concentrating on the most immediate steps in front of you – not looking too far ahead, or this will trip you up. I make the way clear, though, when you focus on the present and take one step at a time. Rely on My guidance and you will have sure footing.

Lost in a Sea of Needless Worry

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

When you are lost in a sea of needless worry, come into My arms. Be comforted and reassured. My love is real, My plans are good, and you needn’t be so afraid and worked up. Don’t be fooled by the misguided belief that things are “all up to you” to do, fix, or accomplish. Rest in My arms of reassurance until your fragile spirit is completely recovered. Remain close to My side with each step you take and lean in as needed for support. Things will work out; you can trust Me.

Be Strengthened to Manage

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Take care of yourself, including tending to your need for food, exercise, and rest. Build in time for conversations with Me daily as part of that self-care, too, because I want to build up your spiritual self, as well. I cannot implement the big plans I have in store for you until you can be strengthened to manage all that will be involved. There are many demands on your time. Gently I call you to be reminded that My well does not run dry. You can dip your ladle in these life-giving waters of Grace as many times as is needed to quench your parched body. As you extend yourself and thirst for more water, I will replenish and recharge your body and spirit. You will be ready for a multitude of tasks requiring your energy and concentration if you come to the well frequently.

Letting Go of Your Grip

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

I see all things and know all things. Your pain, sorrow, worries – nothing goes unnoticed by Me. I never dismiss your experiences as trivial or undeserving of My full attention. My great affection for you results in My mighty hand  at work orchestrating people and plans to assist you with next steps. Turn your cares and concerns for yourself and others over to Me, then work on letting go of your grip and trying to control the outcomes. Trust that all will result in good things under My control. I bring comfort and energy to sustain you.

Reach for My Hand to Steady You

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Hear Me: I am with you, never leaving your side. I am not distant. Stop all this striving on your own and reach for My hand to steady you. I will guide you away from the cliff’s edges. You don’t have to be afraid of the heights. Let’s stand and together enjoy the marvelous view instead of worrying about your footing. Don’t forget to look up now and then on your walk, and take notice of the good things along the way instead of always calculating the distance or amount of difficulty you imagine it will take. Even if a calamity or stress tries to threaten your wellbeing, all is actually well.
