Shut Down the Anxious Thoughts

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

I am here. Truly here. Take a deep breath and shut down the anxious thoughts for a second. Relax your face and jaw and stop the constant pressure of forecasting your day. Everything will come together. Whatever doesn’t get done can wait for another day. I know this, and you can rely on Me to help organize, prioritize or set things aside. Breathe again- allowing My calming balm to ease your tension and remove some of that stress. Take My offering of peace of mind into your regimen, for this gift is available 24/7.

Relax Your Face

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Relax your forehead, face, and jaw. You carry so much tension at times, unaware of how hard you are striving and concentrating. Remember, you can release the planning into My capable hands for a minute and actually find a sense of calm and peace descend. Just close your eyes for a moment and breathe deeply, perhaps telling yourself “It’s okay. I can trust God to help work it all out.” You CAN trust Me; this is an absolute truth. I do so love you and am caring for every detail and concern in your life.

Smoothing the Fears and Tension

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Let Me help you quiet yourself, as completely as you can. Do not invest your thought time in needless worries. Come to Me. Be still before Me and know that I am God. Recognize Who you are sitting with! I am the Almighty Creator of all things! All-powerful, all-loving, capable of greatness. But I do not Lord this OVER you. Rather, I call you into My loving arms, wanting to embrace you fully and tenderly, smoothing the fears and tension you experience and sorting out the difficulties you face. The good news here is that I am at work in your life. Seek to trust Me with all things. Prepare yourself to step in the direction I point you for your life’s purpose. I love when you sit with Me like this, quietly resting in My Presence and readying yourself for the plan. Thank you for giving yourself to Me during this time.

You Don’t Have To Be In Charge Of Everything

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Cozy up to Me for a moment before you begin your day. As you take time with Me, I can remind you that you don’t have to be in charge of everything. That includes letting Me take care of the outcomes. Stop trying to figure everything out ahead of its time. Release your fearful grip on “what might happen” and instead tell yourself, “I am in Good hands”. Allow Me to quiet your soul and soothe you as you breathe in trust and exhale doubt. Your only concern should be lovingly attending to yourself and others as I lead you down today’s path. Take it easier than usual. Let Me bless you with ease.

Smooth Away the Tension

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

The world is full of busy-ness. I call you to a place of calm and stillness so you can sense how near I am. While things around you clamor for your attention, I sit and wait patiently for you to turn your gaze to Me. Seek My compassionate and reassuring eyes, waiting to receive you with total love. Allow Me to smooth away the wrinkles and tension of the world, helping you to stop feeling so bad about yourself all the time. Let’s wash those things away, taking responsibility for whatever interactions need to happen to repair hurts, seek forgiveness, or release your self-blame. Breathe deeply, knowing I make all things new. Turn to Me and become repaired, whole, and freed.

Release the Pressure of What-Ifs

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

As you stop long enough to truly listen for Me, My Grace sweeps in like the rush of fresh air when you crack open a window. The heat of tension and stress escapes out a little at the same time. I aim to soothe you as much as to guide you. I call you to peace. Find balance by slowing your pace and accepting today as it is. Release the pressure of “what-ifs” and “how to’s”, aiming to be present in the moment and trusting My work in your life. Take one thing at a time and crack that window open as often as you can remember to breathe. I am with you and there for you.

Embrace Whatever is Coming

/ Martha York / Leave a comment

Why do you start to tense up before the day has even begun? It’s like you are constantly bracing yourself for the unknown. Try this instead: embrace whatever is coming with joyful anticipation that Good things will surface! Set your mind on “things unseen” as something positive to look forward to. Picture things working out, – however, leave the definition of that up to Me. I make all things work together for Good. Inhale trust; exhale fear.
