Treasure...

My prayer:

Awesome God. Thank you for the gifts of the last few days. Your favor, your protection, your peace, and then, the amazing wildlife all day including those sweet foxes. Thank you so much, you know how I love the wildlife here. You are so incredibly good to me.

What God Said Tonight:

Every day is a treasure to be held in the vault of eternity together. Just because we have a never ending supply of days together does not mean we should not savor each and every one. 

I love our days together. I love spending time with my children. I especially love spending time with you when you are filled with the joy and peace that comes form my love for you.

Discernment...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for discernment God. I recognized again today what a gift your discernment is. Not everyone can see the solution, the way through to the end, but you almost always show me that and it makes life so much easier. 

I have to remember that it is a gift and it is not common to everyone. When I don't I tend to get frustrated with people when they make choices outside of your path. 

I pray for the patience and empathy to allow them the time to find your will. I pray for the wisdom and the finesse to be able to teach it to them, when it is appropriate.

Thank you for your ever present help God.

What God Said Tonight:

You are a blessing because of your ability to discern and follow my will. It blesses those around you whether they know where it comes from or not. But it is a gift, and uncommon gift. 

Recognize the beauty of that gift in your life for what it is and never fault others who have not yet received it. One day, my will shall be the will, the only way. One day, everyone will discern and follow my will, out of choice. 

However, until then, explain with patience when I tell you to. Remain quiet and supportive when I don't. I love you and I give you my gifts to share them. But sometimes, there is a bigger picture going on. Sometimes I am teaching someone else about discernment of my will and they need the time and the space to discover it for themselves. In those times, I will ask yo to stay silent until they step out into their new discernment and then you will be my confirmation for them. 

I love working with you my daughter, now and forever.

The tell...

 

My prayer:

Thank you God for a really beautiful day. 

It started a little rough. I really thought I heard your direction and instruction and then everything changed, and I wasn't so sure any more. When it comes down to it, in this and in every decision, all I want is your will to be done. What ever that will is. I will follow your will, your decision, but I want to be sure of what that is. 

This could be a horrible mistake if I choose the wrong course. It could negatively effect so many people if I get this wrong. Please speak super clearly to me God. Please don't let me get it wrong.

What God Said Tonight:

I haven't stopped talking. I haven't left you. You know that I will never leave you or forsake you. 

The message you heard last night, started with a lie, didn't it? You recognized it as a lie and said so, but then went on to listen to the other things said. The lie was the "tell." The lie was the indicator of who was speaking to you. 

There is a King of lies. He imitates my voice at times but he will always have a tell, something that lets you know it isn't me. Pay close attention to the tell and when you see it, know that all that follows is a lie. 

I love you now and forever my child. We will live through eternity together.

A good day...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for today. Thank you for the opportunity to help out some people. That always makes the day better. I am content God. I love being content. Thank you.

What God Said Tonight:

A good day is like gold that never goes down in value. Treasure each good day and bring them out on the days that are not so good. Bring them out and remind yourself that there are good days. 

It is so easy, when life is hard, to forget that or even start to think you will never have a good day again. I will tell you, that is not true. My children, will always have another good day, waiting. 

I am showering you with good days. Keep them precious and protected. 

Pride is your enemy...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for where you have planted me God. It is likely not forever but right now, it is a healing balm to my soul. You are so good to me, so kind, so gentle, and so caring. Thank you sweet Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

A blessing or a curse is no reflection on who you are or what you have done. I bless you because I love you and you are my own child. I bless you from my love. A blessing is not something earned and is not a reflection of your great deeds. 

I have so much for you, because you are my child. Don't get caught up in thinking your accomplishments earn you my blessing. That is simply not true. Your accomplishments are reflections of my working in you life. They are reflections of me in you. 

If you get too convinced that you are earning your blessing, pride gets in the way and will ruin the whole thing. Pride is your enemy my child. Do not let it in.

Gifts...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for this life God. As I step into a new week, I love that I can do it with the confidence that your favor goes before me. No matter the circumstance, you always take care of me. You are amazing and I love you more than I can tell you.

What God Said Tonight:

Peace, joy, favor, these are my gifts for you. I don't bother with the gifts that will rot away, not with you my child. My gifts for you are those that cannot be stolen and cannot be removed. They come from my love and will never fail. I love you dear child.

Decision...

 

My prayer:

Amazing Father. I have a choice I need to make and I have no idea what the right choice is. It is not a choice that can be decided by reason or even experience. It is a choice that I need your guidance 100%. I pray for your clear direction. I pray that you show me as clearly as possible the choice that is in your will. I will follow. Whatever that will, that decision is. I will follow. But I need you to make this one for me. 

What God Said Tonight:

Decisions are not as final as you think they are sometimes. I have given you grace and that grace extends to your decisions. You will see my hand and my blessing in all that you do. 

But, you have asked for my help and I will not withhold help from you when you ask. I will show you the path of love in this situation. It may not be the obvious path but it is the path that will be in aligned with my love. 

I love you my daughter and I will show you the way.
