Put aside all your plans.
Now devote the time you are spending on planning your day, just being with Me.
You can sit still planning nothing.
You can pray with special intentions.
But be more with Me as you start your day.
Don’t throw Me a few moments.
Offer Me yourself.
There is a difference between praying to Me and being with Me.
One you are doing the doing that you feel will please Me.
Now, how about just being with Me.
It is hard to start because we are all so used to praying.
But, ask Me to come gently into your soul and direct your thoughts from there.
It is really further fine tuning.
You have told Me you ache to BE closer, then this is the Way.
It is not through your prayers to Me, and I do accept them all, but it is you Being with Me.
Do you see the difference?
Imagine you sending Me prayers through the mail.
Then imagine you just Being with Me.
One brings you close to Me on a more intimate scale.
Do not hesitate to pray because that is what you are used to, yet in those prayers ask Me to show you how just to Be with Me.
It is just another way to deepen our relationship.
I have told you to let Me draw you closer because you are not able to do it the Way it needs to be done.
You may feel that praying a lot and a lot more will do it.
Yet I encourage you to pray asking Me to bring you closer.
You are still praying aren’t you. Yet this is such a humble prayer.
You are surrendering your ability to move mountains and asking Me to move the mountains in your life.
It comes down to trusting that I can do it when in many cases it appears impossible for you to do it.
So, Trust and Humility go hand in hand. You can see that can’t you.
Because, in trusting in Me, you are really saying “I can’t do it Lord --- humility --- but I Trust that You can.
So be ever so grateful for humility in your life.
Not that you want to feel humiliated. NO, NO.
That is not a true sacrifice!!
But humility is a gracious gift from God that He gifts to you to use for the betterment of your soul.
And it comes down to acknowledging More of Me and less of you running the World.
