+My love...When you think of Me and My Love...you sometimes feel so unworthy. This thought is not from the Holy Spirit - your Mentor and Guide - your Best Friend and Bodyguard! Whenever those thoughts try to squeeze into your psyche, say My Name. The Name above all Names is your weapon against everything that would seek to destroy our relationship. The enemy lives to sow doubt and unworthiness and by so doing, create a chasm to separate us. Such a fool! My Name 8s the Bridge over every chasm...the Balm over every wound....the Truth over every lie. The Father has taken My Perfect Sacrifice and...like the blood applied over the Passover doorposts...He has applied it to everything about you. The enemy seeks to get you to focus on you...the you that can't get things right. He wants you to feel unworthy. The Father wants you to feel gloriously free...forgiven...empowered...beautiful!! No one is worthy. That's a truth that was buried with the Truth; buried and resurrected. The enemy has no legal right over you. He has nothing over you! In Me, you are the righteousness of God! He hates that and beats his fists against that truth and tries to make you believe this redemption is not for you because you are not worthy. The Lamb was slain as the Sacrifice for every, unworthy, beloved child created in love by the Father's Huge Heart! HE has declared you worthy! The Power and Light and Force of this declaration reverberates throughout heaven - "Not Guilty! Not Guilty! Not Guilty!  Let not your heart be troubled. Trust in God and trust in Me! Because you were bought with a price, this pronouncement of your worthiness was ratified when I spoke the words: "It is finished!" The enemy wants you to think that's the lie! But the Holy Spirit has built you up on all sides and reinforced your battlements with angel armies. God is on your side. Who then, can be against? No one, especially the one who was defeated and rendered powerless by your Redeemer, Who has saved you Forever! Throughout this day, whisper My Name. I am in you...moving you...helping you live in total Freedom. Joy. Joy. Joy. This is how you bring Joy to the world!

"Blessed is the woman who believes what God said, believes every word would come true." 
                                                                                Luke 1:45 
                                                                                                                      

+When you meditate on the words I have spoken to you, faith rises up, for you see a consistency...a relentlessness in My Love for you. You start seeing how I never change...how true and pure My Heart is towards you and towards all. The Heart of the Father is so HUGE, so overflowing with Love, that it defies the imagination...mystifies the limited mindset that has no innate ability to comprehend. This is why you must be born again - born of the Spirit to even glimpse these wonders. The mind is incapable of absorbing this information. These glories can only be absorbed by the new spirit within you. You have been freely given this most startling gift. With it, with the Spirit in you, you can attest to the fact that God's promises to you are already being accomplished, just as Mary's 'yes' initiated the Father's plan, already fulfilled from the beginning. Even though seemingly nothing was different ....who could see then that she was with Child....the Promise was already being fulfilled. Blessed are you, beloved, when you seek to affirm the Father's abundant promises to you! He can only fulfill. He does not know how to be unfaithful to His Word. It never comes back void! This is why it delights Him when you rejoice, no matter how things appear. All of creation reminds you that the Father is true. When a tree looks barren in the winter, you know its future is full of blossoms. So you can look at the bare branches and rejoice that flowers are sure to come. This is one of thousands...millions of examples He's put here to remind you Who He is and always will be. Blessed are you who believes that what the Lord has said to her will be accomplished. When you trust His Goodness and wait for it with confident joy...that peace that passes understanding becomes a haven where you can rest, no matter how things appear. You have your Father's Word. Nothing else matters because you know Who He is! That, My dear one, is how you live each day in the Kingdom. This is the Joy that is your constant, unchanging Strength.

+ Faith is just stepping out. When Peter leapt out of the boat, he didn't fast and pray and wait for a clear word...he just looked at Me and did it. I want you to be bolder and less afraid of making mistakes or worrying about how you are perceived. Perception is a mirage. No one has clear perception of other people's hearts and motives - only the Father does. This is why judgment is always wrong! It is based on limited perception and is an analysis that is no different than that of the bragging Pharisee assuring God of his comparative worth! Resist all judgment. Its sweet taste is artificial and quickly turns to poison in your system. It dims your spirit, that is ever seeking to hear My Voice and to have clearer vision. This is a hard lesson to learn. As you grow closer and closer to who the Father created you to be, the Spirit will make you more and more aware of the subtle judgments you still enjoy! I don't judge you...nor does the Spirit or the Father! In fact, the Father has blinded Himself from any and all sin in you by putting you in Me. That's how He has cast your sin and weakness into the sea, as far as the east is from the west. Can you see now, how truly you need to cast any and all judgment far from you? Think of the debtor who was forgiven the great debt and who then turned around and demanded payment! This is no different! I do not tell you these things to lay a burden on you or to get you to analyze your every move. The Father has chosen you to be His own... to be His beloved child. The Holy Spirit is just helping to lead you very intentionally into understanding your heritage. He wants you to look like your Father. You were re-created back into His image. So it's easy to see...just as there's no judgment - only love and acceptance in Him - all the more...there should be these same inherited traits in you. How do you learn to live in this kind of generosity of Spirit? Keep your eyes on Me and if you start to falter and slip, do not fret and focus on your weakness, step out and walk on the water! Your faith is Rock solid! You are IN Me! 

      "I hear this most gentle whisper from One I never guessed would speak to me"
                                           Psalm 81:5         
 
-Lord, I love this scripture, and so I say speak, Lord, your servant is listening!


+Since the time you were a little girl, I have never stopped wooing you. You felt it when you went into the woods and were awed at the giant dead trees, melting back into the earth, enriching the soil by their death. I am always revealing the mysteries of the Kingdom...death to life....darkness to light...hidden treasure ready to be discovered and celebrated by anyone who searched. I have filled the earth with a million secrets waiting to be discovered. It's My own game of hide and seek, where, at every turn, some facet of My Glory is hiding in plain sight. That is why I always encourage my children to seek and they will find. The Father's Love and Beauty are everywhere. There are millions of reasons to be thankful. He has made it abundantly easy if you only look! So,open your eyes and your heart, my love, and recognize the voice of your Maker saying, Arise. Shine! There is Majesty in the air! There is hidden beauty waiting to be discovered and celebrated! All of creation is My love letter to you! Read and see My faithfulness and exuberance. When you give thanks, your heart swells to make room for more thanks. I have created you for Worship. It is the language of Heaven. Thanksgiving and worship shine from star to star on the blackest night, lighting the dawn with rising hope. My Love never stops coming towards you...wooing you....seeking to prove that My Love is ever new...enduring and stronger than death. This is the greatest, highest quest of your life...to come to the One Who calls you by name...Who fashioned you and all the wonders of the earth for Himself. Your heart and soul and spirit were designed to be restless until they rest in the great I Am...the deep Love of the Eternal Father. So come! the Glory all around you is a choir singing "Come!" The Greatest Composer has written the Song of His Heart and He sings it over you. Listen to the eternal, unchanging, ever-changing Love Song of His Perfect Heart. What a miracle to have ears to hear! Come, My love, and listen!
