Heh, shouldn’t it be?
Shouldn’t My Words be overwhelming – overwhelming every situation, primary, first, predominant, everlasting in every situation?
Does not the Lord give and take away – in all circumstances?
Praise Me. It may seem so difficult in times of sorrow – but give it to Me with your broken heart and I will make perfect peaceful sense of it.
Just ask Me.
Let go of all your anxious moments and rely All on Me.
Let go of pettiness and rely All on Me.
Let go of stubbornness and rely All on Me.
Let go of temptation and rely All on Me.
I am ALL and I want to be All to you and My Beloved. However I cannot step into your life and be All if I am not first invited.
Throw aside all else and take a chance on Me.
Harden not your heart. Do not save Me for special occasions. Use Me, make use of Me in all circumstances.
I do not want to be part of your life. I want to be ALL of your life.
I cannot be shoved into corners, cracks and crevices and expect to work on all of you.
I cannot shut My Eyes to some things and then see to others.
My Being flourishes when I am ALL to ALL. So you see I sometimes do not get to flourish a lot!
But I am a persistent dog.
I will keep barking at your heels, nipping at you, chasing after you, letting you know that I will not stray. I will stay so attached to you, you will think you have Me on a leash.
I will not let go because I am God and I so desire to be with My People, Loving them and Serving them.
You can’t outrun Me. Turn a corner and I will be right there in your face.
It is really not a game, yet I so enjoy the challenge of meeting you in unexpected places and seeing how you are faring – either with Me or without Me.
I know though that with Me you will fare much better – less stress, worry, less anxiety, less frowning, less disobedience, less carousing, less disorder, less anger, hostility, less of you and More of Me.
Quiet yourself right now and see what I want you to hear from Me.
I LOVE YOU.
Don’t we all ache to hear those words, yet they are spouting forth from Me constantly directed to each one of My Beloved.
Hasten not to hear other words of comfort from others. Those words can, will disappear in the wind, in the next second.
But My Words will never fail you. They are solid for all Eternity.
Stand in that promise. Immerse yourself in that promise.
Elevate those friends and family members to that promise. Yes, place them before Me so that I know you want My Love for them as much as I do.
Please do not dare to bring to Me their faults and failings.
If you do I will only gladly point out yours. Not in retaliation, but to let you know that I have not called you to judge, I have only called you to Love.
And how hard it is to bring those you know and love before Me and not also add their faults.
Yet what a great challenge to all of you. I dare you to show Me them in the light of your love. What strength of character and what obedience it requires to only bring them to Me to point out their love traits.
I rejoice when you do this. I am delighted and will honor you and them because you are endeavoring with your heart to live more ‘in love’ than ‘in judgment’.
Do not break down their faults before Me. Do not tell Me you have forgiven them for their faults.
You do not need to stand in My Light if you do that because you have then usurped My Role – to Judge and to Forgive.
They have not offended you. They have offended Me.
If someone comes to you seeking your forgiveness, first of all jump back into My Heart and speak to My Heart. The only words you need utter is “I love you unconditionally”.
Forgiveness is Mine to give and Mine to withhold.
The only gift you have My Blessing to bestow is your unconditional love.
Do not be so proud as to think you can offer forgiveness – because with humans it usually always comes with an ‘only if’ caveat.
By expressing ‘I love you unconditionally’ your part of My Plan for forgiveness is complete.
Otherwise, you have given yourself God-powers if you offer forgiveness left and right. I am the Giver of Life and the Forgiver of Life. I will not be surpassed.
So sit quietly with this mantra “I love you unconditionally” – Me saying it to you, then start to say it one by one of those family and friends you have in your life.
Place them before Me and let Me hear you say it. You may find you have to say it every hour or day until your heart truly gets the meaning. But I will know you are trying and bless you abundantly each time you proclaim it and them to Me.
Why would you avoid such Graces in your life?
Come on – what a challenge. Tell Me who you love unconditionally and we will look at that person together and for that moment in time you and I will be in complete accord. What a gift eh?
Try it on and see the Graces that flow from this – I cannot stop these Graces – they overflow from My Loving Heart to yours.
Now kneel and bring family and friends to Me and let us express in one voice
“I love _________________ unconditionally”.
