In My hands. All of it is in My hands. You can stop over-thinking things by focusing on that phrase. No detail goes unnoticed or unrecognized by Me. I am intimately aware of all your concerns as well as your habits of worry. I love you and am tenderly and gently holding every fragment of your life and mind. Shush now, My child. All is well. You don’t have to be so afraid.

Don’t Let the Task-Master Rule
There is much to be said for slowing down. In a fast-paced world there is little room for awareness of My Presence and My reign over you and all of life. Don’t let the task-master ways in you rule. Step back, often, and pause to listen – acknowledging My ways and recognizing My deep love for you. Be especially mindful of that today. Let Me bring peace back to your heart and mind.
Grace Can Fill In the Cracks
I am with you in your brokenness. It is through the chips and cracks that I can seep in and become a part of you. Acknowledge My Presence in you. Stop feeling like you have to strive for some intangible goal of “worthiness”. See My unconditional love and acceptance reflected back to you when you look in the mirror. Learn to be tender with yourself so that you can mend from unpleasant experiences. Trust My love and acceptance, for this is truth.
Facing Dark Forces
At times it can feel like there are dark forces all around you. I equip you for battles when you must face or contend with them. Sometimes it requires words and actions. Other times the mere act of prayer, – inviting the Light in, – is enough to make darkness retreat. Love overpowers and peace rules when it is for My purposes and Good outcomes. Call upon My protective power and the army of saints will be available to assist you. My armament may require a humble stance at times, too. Let peace reign in your heart toward all. Be slow to judge and quick to forgive FIRST. If I call you to further action beyond that, you will know. Choose love as your sword and faith as your shield.
Rest is Primary
Turn down the volume of the radio in your head, trying to play several stations all at once. Try listening for the still, small voice which is Mine. Tenderly I tell you, “You are so loved”, – by many and by Me. Stop berating yourself and piling up the lists of actions you think are required to be worthy of love. It’s okay to sit still. Practice the art of doing less in order to grow strengthened for the journey ahead. There is much that will be required of you eventually. For now, though, rest is primary. Hear My words so that you can be rejuvenated before taking action.
Sit in Utter Peace
I know how you get anxious. Elect instead to sit in utter peace with Me. Permit yourself to stay in this space awhile. Receive My gift of genuine love and deep, satisfying calm. Replenish yourself in My love-light, taking in deep, calming breaths. Trust that I will not overwhelm you in the day ahead. You can be a person of Light and Goodness. Just “be”. In this practice you can find rest for your weary soul.
The Most Unbearable Burden
I can bear the most unbearable burden. The cross I carry is long-lasting, strong, and able to handle any weight. I watch over those who suffer. I ease pain, – sometimes only in slow increments, but always enough to make your load bearable. I could ease yours more if you would trust that I am carrying ALL of it. Release it,-completely!, – and then experience the peace that goes beyond understanding. Release your grip on things of this earth. I love you and will provide for your every need.
Sit Still, At Peace Inside
It is really important that you take big chunks of time out of your routine to break free from the demands of the day. Learn to sit still, relaxing your face and jaw, – breathing in and out deeply and slowly. I meet you in this space and place every time. Let Me remind you that I am in charge as your loving Provider. All the details will work out in due time whether you obsess about them or not. Strive to be at peace inside knowing I am trustworthy and reliable.
Credibility
Don’t worry about your credibility. If I call you to speak up or to step out boldly, I am the One making you credible. Worry about living by My standards of justice and kindness. It is Me who builds your platform, so let Me handle that. You just need to concentrate on the message. Always make it a message of hope, – especially for the broken, the excluded, and the downtrodden. You can’t go wrong by speaking of love and working for justice.
I Move That Way in Your Life
Take notice of the breeze. Sometimes it picks up, moving fast and rustling things around you. Other times it pauses with complete stillness. I move that way in your life. You won’t necessarily be able to know how I am moving, but I have a plan. If life feels flustered it might be My Spirit bringing winds of change. Other times I may be calling you to stay put. You can be calm either way, knowing I love you. Rely on Me to be in control. You don’t have to see, know, or understand everything in order to be at peace. Work on trusting Me in whatever way the wind blows.
