Concentrate On Our Conversation

I have much to say, but you will need ears that can hear Me. Are there obstacles clouding your judgment or distractions causing you to not concentrate on our conversation? Name them, and work to uproot them. Hear Me whispering – I desire so much for us to have constant communication. I want to shower you with the blessing of our relationship. Don’t turn your face away, confusing the silence with thinking I have stopped talking. You are Mine. Tell Me what is on your heart, and find Me listening attentively and compassionately to your every word.

Picture the Best-Case Scenario

Sometimes you are uneasy inside, even without a reason. That general sense of anxiety and worry merely stems from old habits. In the past, you had to feel prepared for many unknowns on high alert because the people you were with or experiences you were in felt unsafe. I am and have always been your rock of safety and your shelter from the storm. Even now, I pull you out of anxious places and show you people and places with healthy support. Look to Me as you develop new habits of calm and ease. You needn’t worry about things that most likely will never happen. Picture the best-case scenario today and watch as I help make it unfold.

Lost in a Sea of Needless Worry

When you are lost in a sea of needless worry, come into My arms. Be comforted and reassured. My love is real, My plans are good, and you needn’t be so afraid and worked up. Don’t be fooled by the misguided belief that things are “all up to you” to do, fix, or accomplish. Rest in My arms of reassurance until your fragile spirit is completely recovered. Remain close to My side with each step you take and lean in as needed for support. Things will work out; you can trust Me.

Aim for What is Doable

I am a reassuring God. I often see you pushing yourself, striving for that unattainable perfection and trying to be the most thoughtful, capable person who is always on top of everything. Allow Me to bless you with full acceptance of your efforts; I deem them to truly be enough. Yes, I want you to be kind, loving and thoughtful and to use your talents well, but not at the expense of beating yourself up with unrealistic expectations. My bar for you is no higher than what you can comfortably and reasonably accomplish today, – no more and no less. Aim for what is doable and leave the rest for Me to attend. Accept My fully pleased response to you, which never has to be earned. I give it freely.

Leadership

Remember Who is in charge. You are so prone to taking on more responsibility than is really yours to carry. Try stepping back more today and allow others to lead in their own style. Consider that I may be the One behind their decisions, actions, and choices, – even if their leadership style is different than your expectations. Your presence is still needed, but try taking  a supportive role of others rather than stepping in to take charge all the time. Let the chips fall where they may as you find peace by trusting My true leadership in every situation you encounter.

Your Presence is an Extension of Me

You’ll have what it takes to address the needs of the day. I place you among My people with a directive to show love, hope, and encouragement by sitting attentively with others, validating their experiences, pain, or discouragement. It won’t necessarily be up to you to fix with the right words, though. Just be comfortable pausing to listen without responding at times. Your calm, loving presence will be enough and can be an extension of Me, showing how much you care in a way that words aren’t always needed. I’ll help you figure out what to say and when to say it when you pause to acknowledge My healing ways and ask for guidance. I am with you all, always.

I Am Dedicated To You

You are Mine for all times. In sickness and in health; for richer or for poorer. Just like a marriage vow made in love, I am committed and dedicated to you. But unlike a marriage with its human ups and downs, – its flaws and passions and disappointments, – I am steadily present and constantly attentive to you. I am filled with desire for your well-being. Come to Me as your first love. Together we can be dedicated to loving ways in the world. Let Me show you support. In return, voice your commitment to Me and allow My love to heal your tender heart. You’ll receive My overwhelming love for you and find comfort and security in My Presence.

Stop Paddling

I am a God you can trust. I am the greatest listener, encourager, and healer. Let Me be your rock today, – a solid, sturdy place to stand, sit or rest upon as you see fit for your needs. I provide firm support that is unwavering against waves or stormy weather. You can dock your boat firmly to Me. It’s important to stop paddling now and then and step out of the water. Come to Me for focus and guidance.

Trust That I’m Here

Even though sometimes life is hard or filled with difficult emotions, I am showing up. I am with you. You might feel like glimpses of Me are only fleeting, but that doesn’t negate My constant Presence. The trick is learning to recognize Me in occasional encounters but also still trust that I’m here even when you don’t feel or sense My nearness. In choosing to trust, you may find that you actually start recognizing Me more often.  Check it out. I’m with you, – ALWAYS. Loving, supporting, and guiding you, – and attending to your every need.

Be the Personable You I Created

Yield to My beautiful design for you, full of love and tremendous purpose. You are a good person, so stop questioning that. Smart, thoughtful, capable, loving, – and oh-so-sensitive. I see you trying very hard to make life special and supportive to others. You care, deeply. You, My dear, make a positive difference in the world. Get back on track believing this. Don’t let self-doubt shake this foundational truth about you. Go, – be with others and picture yourself comfortable in these shoes of sociability. Be the personable you I created. Remember who formed you!
