Pain...

 

My prayer: 

Today was not easy God. I am grateful that you showed me so clearly the path I am supposed to take. If you hadn't, today may have changed my mind. 

I hate that this choice is causing pain. I hate that this choice has me leaving people I have come to love and who love me. I know it is the right choice. I know you have something more for me in the new place. But it is hard to see the pain.

Awesome God, I ask that you ease their pain and give them comfort. I pray that you guide and direct their steps as you have mine. I pray that my being in their lives has been more blessing than pain. I pray for your continued help in this transition.

What God Said Tonight:

You are not leaving them. Those who are meant to be a part of your future, will be. Those who were meant to be a part of this season alone, will be that. 

I am in you so where you go, I go. Am I not more blessing than I am pain? You brought me into their lives. They can keep me in their lives if they choose. If not, they at least met me in you. 

I love you daughter. Do not let the pain pass without recognition but do not dwell in it either. I love you now and forever.

Challenges and blessings...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. I will need your help tomorrow to do this hard thing. I ask for our favor and guidance to do it well and in love.

What God Said Tonight:

Everyday has its challenges and its blessings. Sometimes the thing you see as a challenge ends up being a blessing for you and for them. 

I love you sweet daughter and I would not steer you wrong. Go in peace and know that I am with you.

The choice...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. Thank you for the clarity today and the blessings. I am excited for this new season and chapter. I am even more excited that you made the choice so clear. I was so unsure last night. I really didn't know what to do but every moment of today, you guided me and showed me the path forward. 

I am SO GRATEFUL! You are amazing.

What God Said Tonight:

The choice was less about you and more about the people I am taking you to. You blessed those where you were and that will be remembered. But I have more people for you to bless and for you to share my love with. They have been waiting for you and it is time. 

I will bless you in it. You know that I will. But you will be a blessing to those around you. Be at peace tonight my child.

Your heart...

 

My prayer:

More than ever, God I pray your will is done. I do not know what the right path forward is. I know what I believe you are telling me, but this is a big one and I don't want to mess it up. 

Guide my steps, my decisions, and my words God. Your plans for me are always so good.

What God Said Tonight:

It is not in your heart to do or act against my will. You have given yourself and your life to me. You have given your heart to me. Your path is clear because your heart is purified by my blood and through my sacrifice. 

Believe your heart, trust your heart, it is my voice speaking. Your future is secure because I am in it and in you.

Reconciled...

 

My prayer:

Sweet and awesome God. Thank you for your guidance, provision, and peace today. In the middle of chaos, I had your peace. In the middle of bad news, I had complete confidence that you had a path through it. 

Living this life with you is so much better than trying to live it on my own terms. Thank you for being all that you are, for choosing me, and letting me have a relationship with you. Wrapping my mind around that is always a little challenging. You, the God of all the universe loved me so much that you provided a way that I could overcome every barrier and have a relationship with you. Wow.

What God Said Tonight:

Is it so amazing that I would want to be with my own children? You are the children of my Spirit and made in my image. What parent would not do everything they could to be close to their child, even after the child had strayed way? If it is within their power, they will reconcile to that child. 

How much more, me, your true and Spiritual Father, would do to reconcile to my children. I gave my life for you and now we can live in eternity together. That is what I always wanted. I love you now and forever my child.

Faith and love...

 

My prayer:

Sweet Father. Thank you for a perfect day. I stand in awe of you and all that you do for me. Now, I will get quiet so I can hear what you have to say tonight:

What God Said Tonight:

I want to give you some clarity and peace. I want you to see the road ahead as I see it, from the end of the road. I want to show you that everything is truly for a reason and that nothing in your life is ever wasted, it will always serve a purpose in both your life and the lives of others. 

I want to show you all of that  but if I do, faith no longer has a place in your life. If I do, you trust the future but you don't need to trust me. 

How much better to trust that I will work everything for your good, no matter what it is. How much better to trust in me than have to know every detail of what will happen next. It is in that trust and in that faith that our relationship grows, out love for each other grows. And, at the end of everything else, that is what truly matters. In the end it is the love that is shared that truly matters. 

Knowing how everything will work out, does not increase the love. Trusting in me, does. 

I love you now and forever and I promise that everything I do is for your good. You are my precious child and I cannot let you forget that.

Solid ground...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. I am so grateful you are in charge of my life. I would be pretty freaked out right now if I wasn't confident that you have everything under control. I love that I get to live a life filled with peace because of you. Thank you for making that possible.

What God Said Tonight:

A life built on solid rock is not one that you have to worry about. It is not one that will shift under your feet. Your life is built on me, the solid rock of truth. 

You need never fear. Your future is secure. Your present is solid. You are on solid ground my child. 

I love you now and forever.
