what you now see

Open the curtain to let in my light. Pull back the sashes and blinders which have limited what is visible to you.   There is more to see and experience. It is available to you. Look out.  Let me expand what you now see.

to get your attention

I want you to wait for me. Take time to draw me into you you,     into the workings of your life.   Sit with me and listen for my heartbeat. I am trying to get your attention.

His provision

I speak the blessing of Father-God     (who knows your name and who knows     your desires) over your life and those who surround you.   I bless you with the fullness He has provided for you.

to fathom your thoughts

Your eyes saw me when I was inside the womb. All the days ordained for me were recorded in your scroll before one of them came into existence. How difficult it is for me to fathom your thoughts about me, O God! How vast is their sum total. Psalm 139: 16-17 (NET)

Continue walking

Continue walking with me.  I am there. I am in your past, I am in your future. I am where you are at this very point.   Do not judge by your circumstances, but always walk with me. I will show myself.

I want you to continue

I am ever with you

““The Spirit of the Lord speaks through me; his words are upon my tongue. The God of Israel spoke. The Rock of Israel said to me: ‘The one who rules righteously, who rules in the fear of God, is like the light of morning at sunrise, like a morning without clouds, like the gleaming of the sun on new grass after rain.’”  ‭‭2 Samuel‬ ‭23:2-4‬ ‭(NLT ‬‬)

Dream within a dream

Last Sunday morning I had a short dream.  Within this dream, I was having a dream. In the inner dream I was hearing a sound, so awoke myself to see what was happening. I pushed back the curtain to look and saw two small lambs.  They were clearly small, unsteady on their feet. They were typically with dirty wool. I saw them for a few seconds and then awoke from both dreams. This morning at church, I felt prodded to share the dream and give a short word, then sat down.  It was very short time when a lady got from her seat, came to the back where I was sitting and began sharing. (She and her husband were relatively new to the church). She shared that during the past week she had a short dream snippet.  I had followed her to their home. She felt safe, as if I was sent to help and protect her.

He is for you

Despite your circumstances or how you feel about yourself, know this: God remains unchanged. His love for you has not changed. He is for you. Know without doubt He remains steadfast in His love for you.

out of my belly

Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the belly of the fish, sa ying, I called out to the Lord , out of my distress,      and he answered me; out of the belly of Sheol I cried, and you heard my voice. For you cast me into the deep,      into the heart of the seas,      and the flood surrounded me; all your waves and your billows      passed over me. Then I said, ‘I am driven away      from your sight; yet I shall again look      upon your holy temple.’ Jonah 2: 1-3 (ESV)
