It is time for you to just go. Go where I am leading you today, keeping focus on your gifts and all you have to offer others. Don’t stay back, reluctant or unsure of yourself. You don’t have to hesitate or stay stuck in indecisiveness. Place yourself with confidence at My altar, and see that I have prepared you well for where you are needed to be today. Be excited about this! Allow yourself to feel positive without worrying about everybody else’s reaction. Place them and the situation in My hands; let Me take care of the outcomes.

Inherent Beauty
You seek perfection, but I do not. You seek beauty, which I surround you with! Others see your beauty all the time, but you avert your eyes to their gaze. Your inherent beauty is actually one of your gifts – that is part of what draws others to you. I use you to draw others in and experience compassion, encouragement, tenderness, and joy – all present within and bestowed upon you. I want you to feel confident, but not only with your outward appearance. I want you to use your inner confidence to draw others in to My loving Presence within you, showing I am available in this way also for them. It’s a whole different way of looking at yourself. See with My eyes. Inspire others. Trust your evident beauty.
Put to Great Use
Your Spirit is connected to Me. I guide your footsteps to carry out My Will. It is Me who inspires, Me who creates – yet I do so in LOVE, not out of “demand”. My Will is to THRIVE in you with abundance and Joy! Your talent will be put to great use for Me. I am so happy with you. Remember that first and foremost. When you doubt that, you grow fearful and anxious, worrying about unnecessary things. I love you, – completely. I am not disappointed in you! You have great value to Me. Find Joy today in how you are being put to use for Me and for My world. I want that for you!
Change of Heart
I will grant you a change of heart. Sometimes when you choose to live My ways of love, it feels like there is an unbearable price to pay; but the end result is always worth it. I want you to know I have heard you, and your life is in My capable hands already. I am working in your life, and in the life of those you love, as well. You will find loving them to be easier. Take comfort in that. I need you to continue leaning into Me. You are not strong enough to do this on your own. I will carry your burden. I will refresh you. I can help form a change of heart to the one who needs it. I have known what you needed even before you named it. I hold you tenderly, gingerly, — like a small and frail bird. I will not fail you. My love never fails, remember?
New Direction
If I need you elsewhere I will lead you there. You haven’t “failed” here if things aren’t working out where you are. It is simply time for a new direction. See?! I make all things NEW! Jump on to the excitement of a new venture, a new train. Climb aboard! Remember Who has called you. You don’t have to earn or buy a ticket from Me. I want you to come along for the ride in complete faith, and show gratitude for the day ahead no matter what it holds in store. You may not understand why I have you where you are, but I know. I place you exactly where your worth is of value to Me. You can be confident in that, knowing there is a purpose for Good inherent in My plan.
Peace Comes from Within
I’ve already forgiven you, long ago and up to the very present. Now, forgive yourself. You are worthy of all of My love. I accomplish great works in you. You can be gentle as a lamb and courageous as a lion today. Your Spirit (which comes from Me) is much stronger than you give yourself credit for. Your capacity to love is great. Be other-centered out of love for Me. Take time to rest. True Peace comes from within, no matter what tasks you are or are not doing. Use that as your mantra. Imagine My Light enveloping you, and know that NOTHING, – no debt, no mis-interpretations or mis-perceptions, no anxiety, – can get in the way of My love for you or penetrate My desire for your well-being. You are forgiven, and you are loved; therefore, you can be at peace. Now, go forth and live like it!
Big Things Can Come
I desire your happiness. You are getting tired, discouraged, and trudged down by life. I need strong, capable, compassionate leaders. I want you in that role! You can trust that this current life experience is giving you just the knowledge and skills you need. Big things can come out of this. I ask more of you, but not more than you can handle. I will give you adequate time with others, and you will find all the balance you need. Trust Me in this process. Try picking up on what you are learning through these trials. You can be at peace and even inspired today just by knowing that you are doing My work! Once you give in to My will out of love, not resisting or resenting your circumstances, you will find the happiness and peace which you have longed for.
Child-like Trust
You have been such a hard worker. I see your effort, and I know how hard you are trying. You have many talents! I will tell you where and how you should go in due time, guiding your feet on next steps when you are ready for them. Be open. Don’t be so anxious, because the truth is that I am always with you! I won’t let your feet stumble. I need you here at home and available to others for now. Don’t let yourself get down-hearted. Work on acceptance of My Good plan for you. I know you are scared and almost feel lost. I know. I am with you. Wrap yourself in My safe garments. Be child-like in your trust of Me even when the present doesn’t make sense and the future is unclear. Take My hand and I’ll walk you around My gardens and eventually down My path designed for you. Delight in this experience with child-like abandonment.
No Chance Encounters
My precious, precious child. You don’t have to be so anxious. You have done so many good works already! I am the way, the truth, and the life, – giving breath to you and those around you. Envision this holy breath-exchange as you build up others: family, coworkers, friends, — even strangers you encounter. It’s all part of My design, really. How simple are My plans if and when you choose to see them with MY eyes and accept your role in it all. No chance encounters are occurring. I gaze upon you lovingly as you interact and do My work. I am delighted when you take comfort in this. Look for Me, and you will find Me in your midst.
Focus
I will give you the energy and the calmness you need. Your job will be to inspire others. You have the gift of encouragement; let that be your focus for now. Start by encouraging yourself! Acknowledge your own talents and giftedness. Be grateful for how I have designed and equipped you. Look for ways to focus your energy and passion. See how there is a capacity to change and adapt. Don’t give in to fear. Study what I place in your head to dream about. Let this become your new focus. Turn everything else over to Me.
