The purpose of the path...

 

My prayer:

Amazing God. Thank you for the intense deja vu today! That is always such a great assurance that I am on your path for my life. This is not the easiest path, that is for sure, but I appreciate your multiple assurances that it is the right one. 

Wherever you want to go God, I want to go with you. 

What God Said Tonight:

A path shows the direction to go but it doesn't actually take you anywhere. You have to walk, bike, drive, that path for it to fulfill the purpose it has for you. 

I love you and I will lead you always but there are times, like now, like most times, where the path alone will not accomplish much. It takes your action, your willingness to follow the path, and your propelling forward on the path to see what it has for you. 

Keep putting one foot in front of the other and you will see the purpose of this path. I love you my daughter, now and forever.

Forever together...

 

My prayer:

Sweet Father. You are my everything. Thank you for every blessing, healing, and teaching you provided today. But mainly, thank you for being you and living out this life with me. I truly cannot and do not want to imagine life without you in it. Without your presence, there is no point to any of it. Thank you for being my God, my Father, my savior, my teacher, and my friend.

What God Said Tonight:

We have amazing times together my child and so many more to come. Whether it is in the glory of victory or in the peace of healing, together, that is what really matters. 

I will never leave you. I will never turn my back on you. If you don't feel me, know that I am still here, I haven't left, and whatever is keeping you from feeling my presence at a given time, cannot stand. It cannot stay. 

I will not allow separation from my children again. I paid too much to redeem you. I won't walk away now. I love you my child, now and forever.

The journey...

 

My prayer: 

Awesome God. Thank you for answered prayers and for getting me through the rough spots today. 

What God Said Tonight:

Today is done. Today is not the rest of your life. This season is only a season. There is nothing more reliable than change. 

I have a lot to show you and teach you in this season but do not get discouraged in thinking it will always be like it is today. It is not going to stay the same and in very little time, you will look back and be amazed at how far you have come. 

This journey is one of growth and distance. Where you end up will be very different than where you started. 

I love you sweet daughter and I am walking through this season with you, every day.

One step forward...

 

My prayer:

I am learning Father. Each day, a little more trust in what you can do and a little less reliance on my own abilities. Each day, a little better. 

This is not an easy lesson for me but I know it is important. 

Help me continue to let go and trust in your power and sovereignty in my life. You are amazing and I am so grateful that I get to live life as your daughter.

What God Said Tonight:

One step forward is still forward. I don't need you to be a sprinter. I don't need you to finish first. I only need you to keep trying, to keeping moving forward. 

We have all of eternity together and each season, each lesson, each increase in faith is a part of that eternity. You will walk sometimes, other times you will run. You will sometimes be lucky to even crawl one step forward. None of that matters. 

You are my child and I will help you grow for your own sake. 

Gifts from God...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for a perfect day God. I loved every minute of it. I am excited to see what you have for tomorrow.

What God Said Tonight:

The breath of life I breathe on you tonight. The joy that comes from being a child of God. The peace that passes all understanding. These are my gifts for you. 

With these, nothing else really matters too much. These are the gifts that can transform any situation into a time of celebration. 

I love you and I will always give you the gifts you need. I will always bless you, now and forever my child.

Get prepared...

 

My prayer:

You have heard my prayers tonight God. Now, all I want is to hear you.

What God Said Tonight:

A challenge is not failure. A challenge is nothing more than an opportunity for me to show the world that there is nothing impossible with God. 

Get prepared to be blessed. Be prepared for my glory to shine off of you. Get prepared to be renewed in your awe for what I can and will do in your life. 

I love you my sweet daughter and now is a time for great celebration. You will love what this becomes.

The river's end...

 

My prayer:

Sweet Father. I don't know where we are going but I know I can trust you to lead. I don't know what the outcome will be but I trust you to work it for my good. I am floating in the river of your will and I love it.

What God Said Tonight:

A river does not flow to nowhere. It has a beginning and an end. The really interesting part is the end is always the start of something bigger and greater than the river ever could be. 

I have great plans for you, you can always know that. Trust me and the ride will be as great as the destination.
