Good morning, God. It’s 6:52 a.m. and I’ve been up for about an hour. It’s amazing how drawn to the blank page I feel these early morns. I have quite a bit of writing to do for the San Antonio project today and I pray that you will bless me in my work, helping me to do a good job without too much fretting. But, for now, I’m going to sit here silently and wait for you

“For God so loved the world, He gave his one and only son; so that whoever should believe in Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

My child, I hope that you can just sit for a few minutes this morning and really ponder that; wrap your brain around it; know it from the depths of your soul. I am with you always. When times are tough; when you wonder where I could possibly be, I am right their beside you; inside you. I am never apart from you, but instead it is your perception, your guilt that makes you feel distant from me. Listen to me. If you believe in me; if you truly accept my son, Jesus Christ, as you Lord and Savior, then you will live with me forever. You can’t do anything to change that. I could not love you more than I do, for I love you infinitely.

Just keep the faith. Faith is not a requirement to gain my love. Faith is simply an avenue to feel my love; to experience my love; to bask in my love. I love you when you are down and out; I love you when you doubt; I love you when you sin and take the wrong path. I simply always love you and faith is the wisdom to truly know that!

You never, ever have to feel lost and alone. And, if you do, take out your Faith, the compass that helps you find me. Bask in my glory and feel the love that will always envelope and comfort you. While it is true that you need other humans to aid you in your walk on earth; to help teach you, support you and hold you up in your times of waning faith, it is in Me and Me alone that you will find true Peace and Love.

Stay grounded in Me, my child, and help those I have entrusted to your care do the same. Thank you for being obedient and walking alongside those I have chosen for you, no matter how difficult. My plans for you are great.

“For I know the plans I have for you…Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, Plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11
