When It Feels Like Too Much

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

There are so many pressures in this world vying for your attention. Phone calls, texts, emails to answer; invitations to respond to; plans to be made. When it all feels like too much, I know. Turn to Me for help making space in your head, and to find true quieting. Hear Me saying “What is necessary will be accomplished. What is not can wait. I will help. Hand your list over to Me”. Stay close behind Me, following in My footsteps as I help you focus. Cling to Me, and trust how I am rolling things out. By the end of the day, all will be well.

Blanket of Love

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

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.

Focus On One Thing

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

You can choose to rise above any darkness that seeks to distract you. Hone in on one thing at a time, mindfully approaching each task and every personal encounter with your full attention to whatever is in front of you in the moment. Do not worry about discerning or controlling a laundry list of things to do. Instead, be receptive to My nudge that brings that one thing into focus. This way you can accomplish My works without getting your feathers ruffled. See how the pressures of life are lessened when you practice the art of mounting up and taking on just one task at a time.

Confident in Our Daily Partnership

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

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.

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.

Attentive to Needs Beyond Your Own

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Today I ask you to concentrate on doing good things for others. It takes effort to listen well, being focused and attentive to needs beyond your own. If you take one interaction at a time, by the end of the day you will be able to see that what was accomplished was enough. Take periods of rest, too. It’s okay to not overextend yourself. I am teaching you dependence upon Me, and learning to pace yourself is part of that education. I desire for you to live in peace, and not to be taking on too much that will overwhelm you. All is and can be well.

Take It Easier Today

/ Martha York / 2 Comments

You have no idea what I’m up to. That’s because you are designed to live in 24-hour increments only. Any more than that is too much to bear, and I am preparing you day by day for what is in store. Take it easier today, living in simple trust of My good plan unfolding just as it needs to. Take things one day at a time and try not to worry about tomorrow. Step confidently into today knowing I am by your side at all times and you can trust Me. You needn’t carry worry about anything bigger than that right now.

Mountain of To-Do’s

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

When you look at the mountain of to-do’s, it can be overwhelming. Easy does it today. My advice to you is to take one thing at a time, picking away at the pile of tasks before you slowly and easily. As you study only one rock at a time, you may actually find it fascinating. Take one trail and aim to complete it, enjoying the sights along the way. I have a lot for you to see with clarity and focus when you receive My invitation to take each step with Me.

Called to Be Still

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

I call you to be still so that you can know Me better. When you are still, you can focus better and find the peace I offer you continually. In the stillness, I can attend to you differently, – providing reassurance that I am with you right here and right now, that you are enough, and that you’ll have what it takes to get through the day. Come, sit by Me and absorb the calming effect of My loving Presence. Stay here awhile, basking in the quiet peace and pool of Grace I have for you.

Abundance and Ease

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Instead of frowning at your day ahead with its multitude of tasks or minor irritations, pause to focus on Me first. Absorb My Love-Light, beckoning you to recognize the abundance and ease I offer to you daily. You will have plenty of what is needed to accomplish those tasks. You are already equipped, and My supply is abundant today. As you breathe in My reassurance, everything ahead will feel lighter and more doable. I offer you peace with an ever-ready supply when you move with Me at My pace intended for you.
