I Am Never Disappointed In You

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

First and foremost, I want you to comprehend that I am never disappointed in you. It is you who puts critical judgement on your emotions, actions, and thoughts, – deeming them as ‘good’ or ‘bad’ and equating them with worthiness. I don’t operate that way, though. I want you to know you are worth loving and being attended to. Allow yourself to receive My unconditional love. See how it changes you to become a person at peace, just as you are called and designed to be.

Let Me Soothe Away the Strain

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Know that I am God. My desire isn’t to have you work yourself to the bone. I want you to treasure your spirit as I treasure you. Lay your weary head on My shoulder. Let Me soothe away the strain. I am indeed pleased with you. Work less hard in the sense of taking things one task at a time and not overwhelming yourself. Look for Me in the eyes of others who see you as kind, compassionate, and capable. They recognize your fatigue, too, so there’s no need to hide it. Close your eyes and rest on My shoulder as needed today. Let Me help comfort and rejuvenate you as you drink from My well.

The Power of Loving Acceptance

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

You are My child, and oh-so-beautiful to Me. Look to see My eyes of love for you, which is real and powerful. I think of you as wondrous, kind, and full of Goodness. That is what others see in you and know to be true. They are drawn to you because of it. Let them know how pleasing they are, too, and find your irritability or anxiety becoming overshadowed by the power of loving acceptance. See how this releases unnecessary stress. No worries or fear of commitment are warranted. Let your heart be softened by relying on and trusting in the art of My design.

Don’t Beat Yourself Up

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Be kind to yourself today. Actually, do that EVERY day. It will be easier to treat others kindly when you practice this on yourself. Don’t beat yourself up over everything you eat, say, and do. Rehashing everything in your head isn’t serving you well, either. The truth is, I love you unconditionally! I want you to enjoy your food, cut yourself some slack, and be more playful today.  Your kindness, like your compassion, will shine through. You are helping others in ways you may not even recognize.

Handling Disagreements

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

In this world there will always be disagreements. Sometimes the wayfinding isn’t clear-cut. It’s okay to have your own opinions, but it’s also important to seek to understand others. Hear them out, and if necessary, agree to disagree. You can share your views diplomatically when they are tempered by My Grace. Ask for My help to ‘keep your cool’, and start every comment by considering the most loving and compassionate intention you can back it up with. I will give you the words to say and equip you with the way to phrase it. Aim to treat all with dignity and respect. Trust Me to help.

Ushering You Away From Harm

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

You can trust Me. I never have back-handed motives or actions. I am a loving God who only operates in safe, kind, and caring ways. No matter who has treated you poorly in the past or how you’ve been hurt, I’m not like that. Picture Me standing by your side if memories of those encounters are clouding your mind. Rewrite that scenario by envisioning Me shielding you with a protective arm, ushering you away from the harm. Turn to Me and cling to the folds of My garments, for I am with you. Ask for My help to heal old wounds and release their grip on you. I am by your side, wishing you wellness and peace.

You are Mine. You are therefore always treasured, needed, and loved!  Let that sink in. How might you go about your day differently if you embraced this truth of belonging and being unconditionally loved? Yes, My beloved, – I want you here on this earth for a reason and a purpose today. I also want you to enjoy the day’s experiences. Look for My Light and take time to smile inwardly at Me when you find it. Your life is worth living well.

You’re Not Too Messed Up

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

I love you no matter what. This might sound ridiculous to you, especially when measured against your secret thoughts of “how could anyone love me as I am? I’m too messed up.” This is just not true. You are never too messed up for Me. Let Me help smooth out the rough edges, brushing off the dirt and remains of times you’ve tripped up. I want you to see how capable you are of walking on a better path for you, bathed in My Light and Goodness. I believe in you, and I love you exactly as you are. Start fresh today in this truth, taking one step at a time, with My help.

Things Can, Do, and Will Work Out

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

You fret about a lot of unnecessary things, picturing the worst-case scenario and bracing anxiously for the unknown.  I call you to address this habit and intentionally change your thought process. When you catch yourself building worries, – STOP. Remind yourself that I am a loving God who is taking care of you and has Good plans in store. Remind yourself you are loved, loving, and capable, and then say, “I trust you Lord. Things will work out in the end. They have before and they will again, because you are caring for Me and my situation.” Things can, do, and will work out. Choose to believe, and allow yourself to live life with greater ease and happiness.

Take In Peace and Ease

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Take it all in! I freely give you the sights, sounds, colors, and scents in this garden of delight. Practice slowing down and noticing things. Most importantly, take in the sense of peace and ease I offer if you stop long enough to receive. Learn to take rest breaks more often, acknowledging My call for you to be present in the moment with Me like this. Things will get done in due time. Time with Me is always time well-spent.
