She paces wishing she knew what was to come next. This uncertainty brings back all her old doubts and fears. They slither into the dark parts of her soul and seep into her thoughts "Am I strong enough this time" flits through her mind. "What if this isn't God's will" is at the foremost in her jumbled thoughts.


My child,

I ask that you have faith in Me, to put all your fears and doubts in My hands. But how can you let go when you hold them close to your body your knuckles white from the strength of which you cling to them. I will not pry them from you for they must be given up of your own free will. Do you not think Me capable of handling them? Have you such little faith in Me? They weigh you down and shackle you to the past.


warm hands enclose hers


Let go of this burden you keep so tightly clutched. Trust in Me for I will not fail you. I never have failed you even on the darkest of nights when the winds where wicked and cruel, where the cold seeped to your very bones I was there and I kept you sheltered and held you close.


slowly she relinquishes to Him


Thank you Father, though I can not see the end to this journey I know you alone have the power to be my fortress and my salvation. My mind can be at peace and my soul at rest knowing I can rest safely with you.


Psalm 62

"My soul finds rest in God alone, My salvation comes from Him. He alone is my rock and my salvation. He is my fortress, I will never be shaken."

She stands in a room full of illusions and mirrors, every step leads her down the wrong path.


Father I am scared, scared of failing. You said you would always be there but where are You now? I can't see Your nor can I feel You.


My Child,

I am all around you. I am in the river you sit by, whispering "Be at peace for I am here". I am in the warm hug of a friend, giving you strength. You can hear Me in a kind word. You will find Me in My book, my words you can read. I have never left your side; don't you see those I have placed in your life to carry My good deeds and words?


Do you not feel me even now? I am there if you would just listen. I can't promise this will be easy nor can I promise a life without pain. What I can promise is there will come a day when you will feel these arms holding you close and you will see My face with your own eyes. There will be no pain or suffering. But until then when you light goes out Mine will shine, when you are in pain I will comfort you, when you strength runs out draw on Me for mine is endless. Look for Me and Me you shall find. Silence your mind, still your restless heart, quiet your soul and open your ears to what I have to say today. I am always whispering in your ear but will you hear Me today?
