Joy...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for another wonderful day God. I pray for you protection and guidance tomorrow. Guide and direct us God and help us to find the joy in every moment.

What God Said Tonight:

Joy exists outside of circumstances and originates in me. It is much like peace. You don't have to have a life without stress in order to have peace. What is remarkable about my peace is that it can be found in the middle of a raging storm and can feel more powerful, more profound, in that moment than it does when it comes during the calm. 

The same is true of joy. Joy comes from me and I can give you joy in the middle of tragedy. It is often more amazing to find joy at those times than it is when everything is going well. 

My gifts to you are not transient. They are meant to last a lifetime and beyond. I love you sweet daughter. 

New depth...

 

My prayer:

Thank you God for blessing and direction. Thank you for perfect peace. I am so deeply grateful for this life you have given me. Now I get 5 days to do nothing except enjoy it...Wow.

What God Said Tonight:

A new level, a deeper level, is on the way. Your core is strengthened and ready for more. 

I will lead you in this journey and you will not lose what I have given you, what I have shown you, but only build upon it. A physical and emotional healing and strengthening has already taken place. Now we embark on the Spiritual. 

It is going to be so much fun! I love you daughter. Walk my path and I will take you to great depths.

No better life...

 

My prayer:

Amazing God, I know I am sounding like a broken record but I can't stop being in wonder and awe of the life you are giving me. Mom said it best today, it is surreal. 

I have never been so content and so happy in my life. Thank you for every blessing, large and small. Thank you for knowing what will be a blessing better than I do.

I celebrate you in every moment.

What God Said Tonight:

I love you. There is nothing more or less to say. I love you and I love getting to show that to you. 

Live in my Kingdom and experience my Glory. There is no better life.

Harvest...

 

My prayer:

I look at this life you have given me God and I an in awe. I had no idea that life could be this wonderful. There are challenges but none that you overcome. And, there is so much joy. So much peace. Thank you for this season and time in my life God. It is the best one yet.

What God Said Tonight:

Every seed grows when it is nurtured and cared for. Some seeds grow into flowers, others trees, others grass but no one seed is more important or better than another. 

You planted many seed in your life and you are seeing the harvest. You are watching them grow up around you. This is the time to enjoy the harvest. To revel in what the seeds have become. 

I celebrate in this with you. You, my beloved.

Compassion...

 

My prayer:

Amazing Lord. Thank you for caring about every little thing. I am so grateful that I can bring literally anything to you and you listen and you take care of it, every time. Thank you for hearing this latest request. I leave it in your hands.

What God Said Tonight:

Compassion always has room in my Kingdom. I will always respond when the heart, when the core, is out of compassion. 

Compassion is one of the most powerful expressions of my love. Not sympathy but true compassion where your deepest heart is filled with sorrow for the other and you truly want nothing more than their healing, their joy, their protection. 

That is a prayer, a love, that I can respond to every time. I love you sweet child.

Ride the wave...

 

My prayer:

Today was all about finding the silver lining in the clouds so to speak. That is something I am pretty good at, finding the good side of bad news, but only because of you in my life God. You have shown me over and over that there is almost always a way to find the blessing in a situation. It is one of the many things I am grateful to you for. 

Thank you for being my ever present silver lining.

What God Said Tonight:

There are two ways to ride waves. You can ride on top of them, like many do. It is thrilling but can be pretty dangerous. 

You can also ride underneath them. You can go with the flow of the tides and give yourself over to them. It can still be exciting. You are never sure where you are going to go or how fast you will get there. But, it is much less dangerous and you are more likely to get to your destination in one piece. 

I give you the choice, ride on top of the waves and fight your way through the surf or give yourself over to the flow under the waves and let me take you to entirely new depths of meaning and purpose. 

I love you now and forever my child.

Rock...

 

My prayer:

I don't even know how to say thank you to you any more God. Your blessings are unreal. No one would believe me if I told them all that you are doing. Thank you for the layers upon layers of blessing today. You are SO GOOD!

What God Said Tonight:

A life built on rock sounds pretty stable. But it depends. If you build your life on the rock, one rock, you will never falter. If you build your life on gravel, you will be subject to the shifting and movement of the gravel. 

I am the truth. Base your life on me and you will not falter. Build your life on little, part truths, and it will shift with the movements of the world. 

I love you sweet child. I am your rock.
