Things to Notice

I give you so many beautiful things to notice and ponder. When you slow your roll and are able to truly stop and take something from the view in, I gift you with a shift in perspective. Stop and smell the roses or lilacs. Truly slow down enough to enjoy and appreciate what you taste and see, then give a nod of acknowledgement thankfully to Me. Be struck in awe by My Presence as I meet you in your surroundings today. I love you and am ever-so-near.

That Place of Familiarity

We are not strangers. I am intimately familiar with you, and I know your every thought, wish, and ache. You know Me, too. Deep inside, you know to trust Me and you strive to be more like Me. Talk to Me from that place of deep familiarity today. Bring Me into your decisions, actions, and conversations. Look at Me when things get resolved or when they turn out well. Acknowledge that I am a part of all Good things. Trust Me even with the tensions, hurts, and disappointments, for I am with you as you experience them. I am that familiar God who truly cares and heals.

Enjoy Being Confident

You don’t have to get caught up in trying to impress Me or others. Do what comes naturally to you, and enjoy being confident in this. You are already enough, with nothing to prove. Listen to My guidance as I place opportunities in your path to utilize your unique gifts. This is not showing off or being prideful. It’s simply a matter of acknowledging that I made each person good at different things. Don’t be shy about your talents. Use them out of love and respect for Me, your holy Designer.

A Somehow God

Listen to Me and trust that I am the “somehow” God in your life that you need. Somehow, you turn a corner and find that peace that outweighs the anxiety and sadness. Somehow, you get the strength to handle that difficult situation. Somehow, a genuine belly laugh breaks through the tears and disappointment. Somehow, people come through and circumstances change. Life moves on. Trust Me to provide all the somehows you will need. Take a breath of encouragement, succumbing to My gentle reassurance that you will get through all of this.

Relax Into Being Perfectly You

You need Me and I need you. I have created you perfectly suited for the events of the day. When you trust My design and provision, you can relax into being perfectly you. Be in awe of My plan as it unfolds, with authenticity in your interactions and value in what you contribute. Receive all of the confidence you need by trusting My love for you and My placement of you exactly where you find yourself today. Each conversation, every task you undertake is infused with My design. Be the Light in these encounters, trusting in your true Goodness.

Aim for a Positive Perspective

You have no idea what I have in store for you today. Look for the element of surprise. Enjoy the little bright spots I offer along the way. They are there; you just have to look for them by aiming for a positive perspective. I delight in you and I wish to give you Good things to cling to with a hopeful and happy heart. Set your sights high.

Allow Me to Take the Pressure Off

There are so many things clamoring for your attention as you replay thoughts from previous encounters or imagine interactions yet to come. Both are needless activities. I call you to awareness of the present! You are Mine. Stop and take stock of everything I am providing in this very moment: food, warmth, love, safety, security, – plans for your welfare, not for dismay! Your flesh and bones are in working condition for the tasks I have in store for you. Stop agonizing over insignificant details. Give in to My Will, discovering how I make life flourish for you. Abundant, tender, meaningful life. As you rely on Me to take care of you, worries about the future will lessen. My reliable provision is there for you, so allow Me to take the pressure off.

Confident in Our Daily Partnership

Remember, I intend for you to live 24 hours at a time. Don’t get so far ahead of yourself with imagined conversations, events, and outcomes. These can cause anxiety and are not of My design. I want you to become dependent on Me, confident in our daily partnership and able to hear My voice and experience My Presence. Don’t be misled into thinking you have to know all the answers and you don’t need Me. Take the grapes from My vine freely, and have your fill of My sustainable supply. It will be substantial enough to meet your needs in this day. Just stay present, concentrating on My daily bread supplied to you.

Endurance and Expansiveness

I have called you by name. It is My job to take care of the others that you are worried about, not all yours. Remember that My plans are for your welfare, not dismay. For now, endurance and expansiveness are words for you to concentrate on. You have been gifted with strength and stamina, which will help when it comes time to move forward. Expand your view and open yourself to possibility. When courage and bravery are needed to take steps in a new direction, you will know. Don’t forget that I love you, and I don’t want or expect everything to be so hard for you all the time. Joy will return. There is time enough for everything, though, so just concentrate on appreciating the day before you.

Anticipating Good Things to Come

You get it. You know how having a grateful mind leads to a more joyful spirit. I want your happiness and to see you living a life not only of peace, but also filled with hope – anticipating good things to come. Picture it! Take whatever vision I lay on your heart or imagination and try approaching life as if it is a given that these good things are going to occur. Aim your sights on My powerful perspective. Nothing I desire for you is too small or too big to reach for and attain. Nothing.
