a new turbulance

I’m about to bring forth a new turbulence. My wind is about to spring forth. It will blow. Do not resist or you will break. My turbulence breaks the old ways. I bring cleansing and refreshing. In my way is life. Take the liberty; ride my ways. I am creating a new turbulence. I am stirring many waters. The chaff is being blown away. It will not mingle with my seed. My word is holy and brings life. Step into my turbulence and be blown away. My spirit blows where I direct. It is coming to you. Be prepared.

Stop trying

Stop trying to blend in. I have created you unique. Do not hide what I see as value. You are my expression. Each portion of you has purpose and plan. I have those who need me that you are able to touch. You are my covenant. You are the train, north-bound and south-bound. I am the cargo you carry. Blend into my ways that I might colour the world with a new palette. Be tenderly hidden in me.

Getting close

Getting close to me requires much; You must learn to release yourself. You must allow me to show you love. It is unconditional. Like an earthly parent, I am proud of you. I see what you are becoming. Though you fall, there is no weakness. Relax and allow me to enjoy showing you my ways. Stop the self-expectation. I have much-more for you. Sit with me, closing your eyes, imagining what I see. My strength abides when you are weak. My ways of breaking are tender for my children. Allow me into your every thought.

Adam

Adam He stood on the edge of eternity. Slow breezes watered his mind. The sky went on forever. He talked with the birds. They ate of his hand. He fed them his eyes. They made love to him as he drank the solitude of shade. First man again you come. Eternity was to your back. The birds nest in the fragrance of your hair, unaware that you are gone and here at the same time.

let us return to the Lord

I find I am often more open with God when I am busy, such as mowing the yard or even walking. Such it was this evening as I was walking the dogs. I asked him that he would show himself to me, in whatever manner he would chose, and not necessarily in the ways I expect him. Later this same evening I heard him clearly speak a word to me. He said, “It is in the failures, not the successes that you are measured.” When I sat thinking on what I had heard, this verse came to mind. Come, let us return to the Lord. For He has torn [us], and He will heal us; He has wounded [us], and He will bind up our wounds. Hosea 6:1 (HCSB) What an attitude to have, knowing that while we may receive punishment, we expect healing too. Our father cares for us as individuals. We see that the writer of Hebrews was aware of the concept in quoting from Proverbs 3:11-12 he writes, And you have forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons: My son, do not take the Lord’s discipline lightly, or faint when you ar

Do not be discouraged

Do not be discouraged. I am with you. Yes, I am working within you, despite what you don’t see or sense. I am with you. Drink-in the water I offer. Apply the balm of my peace to your restlessness. My words bring encouragement. Let them soak into your life. My ways bring wholeness, for now and in the time yet to be revealed. I am active within your life. Rest in me and do not allow discouragement to affect you. My love for you is ever-growing. It reveals itself as you allow me to work. Replace what you don’t see with my assurance. My words will come to pass. They never fail. There is nothing I have shown you that I will not perform. Let the water of my living word refresh you.
