Never allow your feelings to get in the way of just resting with Me. My presence takes away all doubt, erases fear, and steals away the voices of the world that have kept your attention focused elsewhere.
Where have you looked today?
What things have you done without Me?
I want you to include Me in all that you do, not because you have to, but because you cannot live apart from Me.
Would you say that your day is spent doing things with Me or not?
Much of your time is spent thinking and acting in accordance with what seems right at the moment. I want you to lose yourself in Me. I mean this literally. I look upon the finished work of art and My goal is to bring you into your spiritual identity. Living from your spirit is how truth is discerned and lived out. I am Spirit, therefore you must exist in your spirit for our conversations to take place. I placed My Spirit within you for this very reason. There is no seeking Me until I can be found…I’ve placed Myself inside of you. This means there’s no hoping to discover the God of the universe…you get to exist within Me by simply going deeper within yourself. The reason so many children never discover their Father is because they live from the head and not the heart. Your thoughts will not bring you any closer to Me. The key is allowing yourself to be emptied of all distraction, all thoughts, all agendas and discover Me in the secret place of your heart. My voice will become prominent and there will be no mistaking who you are listening to. I want you to learn to listen to My voice and value our time together above everything else in the world. There shouldn’t be anything that takes precedence in your day above being with your God. I’m a personal, intimate, and very generous Father. I give of Myself without reservation. That’s just it, you don’t need a reservation to be with Me. You don’t need to beg Me to get closer to Me. In fact, you don’t need to do anything. That’s right! The fast track to My presence is stillness. The more you calm your mind and stop allowing your thoughts to rule your decisions, the more you will discover the mind of Christ feeding your soul and navigating you through life. There shouldn’t be time alone to yourself. There are far too many things that get in the way when you do things apart from Me. I want you to live intentionally for nothing less than nearness with Me. The level of clarity and consistency in hearing My voice is dependent upon the measure of stillness you carry throughout your day. One of the greatest acts of worship is learning to live from a place of emptiness, being filled to the point of overflow as you simply rest in Me. When you drop everything to be with Me, you’ll find that I’ve already dropped everything to be in you.
