- It's been a blazing hot week so we finally closed the windows and turned on the air conditioner. What a wonder!

+Yes! and as you've been sitting here wrapped in My bright Presence enveloping you, you suddenly heard the soft influx of the cool air coming through the vents. As the day goes on, you won't be aware of the almost silent on/off/on/off as the house is maintained at a comfortable level. Outside, things are wilting in the sun. Here, the atmosphere is cool. This is how your outer world can be manipulated... unaffected by the hot July day. I know that you desire your inner world to maintain a constant awareness of My Presence throughout your day. Like the invisible influence cooling the air, you know that I'm always present. You are just not aware of it for most of the day. You wonder how you can go about your business... your mind dealing with a myriad of things... and keep that steady, calm experience of My Presence saturating your environment. Throughout your day, you can be unaware of the beauty of many things around you....your husband...whose love is ready and waiting to greet you... the flowers that have soaked up all that rain and are slowly unfolding into their full stature... on and on it goes. This is why you are encouraged to Be Still and know that I am God! How does one do that and still manage to accomplish anything throughout the day? Ah... but that's the sweet mystery of the Kingdom! As you seek and long to be aware, you realize that YOU are the one who is being pursued! It's My Beauty and Love chasing after you!  If you choose to be still deep in the core of your being, there I am...My Beauty and Love wrapped around you! I am always here... always accessible... always saturating your life with the cool refreshment of a love that surpasses everything. e.e.cummings' said it well;"i carry your heart. i carry it in your heart." This is truth. This is knowable. This can be the influence that constantly infuses your day with Glory. Be still and know. Learn from the Holy Spirit, your Master Teacher, how to rest in this perfect Love that is yours for the taking. It is His joy to teach you. Right now, the air conditioner is silent, but you know... you are attentive to the fact that the vents will bring the coolness any minute. Speak My Name as you breathe. Talk to your Father throughout your day. Know that My promise that I will never leave you or forsake you is the bedrock truth you can rest in... the coolness that can continually refresh you no matter what is going on. So enjoy this day. Enjoy the expanding prayer closet that started in the corner of your room and now has taken over your day! Walking with the Father Who adores you... Who waits always for your return...is the most beautiful, fulfilling thing you can do with your life. He IS your life! Enjoy His Love today and you will accomplish much!
