Come Away My Beloved

I ask . . . and you comply.

But, do you know — that you are very dry?

You used to come running . . . with arms held open wide.

You used to linger . . . when I was by your side.

Many long, for time to spend with Me . . . You seem distant, unaware of My plea.

Hearken to Me, as I, in turn, listen to you . . . But, there is so much more, in store, for you!

We used to be close . . . We used to be quiet together . . . Can you tell Me, why the separation?

When did it start?

Why did we part?

Come running to Me — with arms held open wide.

I long to be — right there by your side.

We, truly, never do part . . . but, I want your heart!

Do you love Me?

Show Me.

Spend time with Me . . . as I long to spend time with you!

That is My plea . . .

Spend time with Me!

“Can you not discern this new day of destiny breaking forth around you? The early signs of my purposes and plans are bursting forth. The budding vines of new life are now blooming everywhere. The fragrance of their flowers whispers, “There is change in the air.” Arise, my love, my beautiful companion, and run with me to a higher place. For now is the time to arise and come away with me.” “You must catch the troubling foxes, those sly little foxes that hinder our relationship. For they raid our budding vineyard of love to ruin what I’ve planted within you. Will you catch them and remove them for me? We will do it together.” Song of Songs 2:13, 15, TPT

Come Close

It is My hand that formed you–can I not then shape you?

It is My breath within you–shall I not sustain you?

You limit My ability by keeping Me away.

I will pray another day . . .

I would seek, but there’s no time . . .

I am tired–not now.

You are restless and lonely and fearful, for you haven’t time for ‘us.’

It is not ‘Master and servant.’

It is not–‘I’m up here and you there.’

Look to your own heart and be still before Me–I AM!

I wait–for you.

“The hand of the Lord was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley; it was full of bones. And he led me round among them; and behold, there were very many upon the valley; and lo, they were very dry. And he said to me, ‘Son of man, can these bones live?” And I answered, “O Lord God, thou knowest.’ Again he said to me, ‘Prophesy to these bones, and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. Thus says the Lord God to these bones: Behold, you shall live. And I will lay sinews upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am the Lord.'” Ezekiel 37:1-6

Announcing A New Published Book!

“His Voice In My Heart”

Listen to His Voice, as He speaks messages to you to affirm, heal, deliver and deepen your relationship IN HIM.

Also Available from Nation of Women Publishing–

“Comfort in the Challenge”

A timely book for this troubling season!

Notice the title. This book was written in dedication to care-givers; created and printed in 2019 before anyone had ever heard of Covid 19. I had a different title planned for the book, but the publisher rejected my title and suggested this title, that the Lord had spoken to her. We didn’t know what was coming, but He did! This book wasn’t written to sensationalize a current event. It was spoken by God in provision for a time to come and that time is now!

Book Order Link: https://www.nationofwomenpublishing.com

These books are not my words; other than testimony pages, they are all His messages. Listen as He speaks to your heart and takes you on a journey to bring healing and wholeness to your spirit, soul and body. These messages speak His heart, but they are not to replace the Word; they serve to amplify the Word with practical application and insight.

Read the Word!

Scriptures are included with every message. Take the time to look them up and study the Word. It is the Word that Saves, Delivers and Heals. Jesus IS the Word, and He chooses to have relationship with YOU!

All proceeds for ‘Comfort in the Challenge’ go directly to Canaanland Ministries. A faithful ministry devoted to equip men to overcome addiction and find new life in Christ. Both books are $14.00 USD each, plus tax and shipping and may be ordered from the link above.

Human nature tends to shoot their best supporting foot, just because it steps a little different than the other. May we all take on the ‘nature’ of God and receive His peace and understanding for one another!

A Choice Relationship

I’m not a puppet.

Many only think of Me at their convenience, in passing by or when they have a need.

I AM here for you, always, but are you here for Me?

A relationship is a bond, tightly woven like a cloth. Lives so interlaced that you fail to see where one begins and another ends.

Do you know why?

A relationship with Me is everlasting–eternal.

Much like a cloth, your thoughts are ‘woven’ into My Heart; My Heart is woven into your life–tightly together, never to part.

Many wander, in a wilderness state-of-being in their life; with no purpose, plan or hope for their future–

It is the fruit of no relationship.

It is impossible to have a true relationship with Me, but have no purpose in you.

I AM your purpose!

In pursuing Me, I AM revealing in you, and you will know the direction for your life–in your life and throughout your life.

I Lead, but I AM not merely here for you to pull a string when you want something–

I AM not a puppet.

But I do choose to have relationship with you.

You may choose otherwise, but a chosen one will be a woven one or I will choose another–

You Choose.

“For many are called, but few are chosen.” Matthew 22:14

“This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not live according to the truth; but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.” I John 1:5-7

“Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations.” Deuteronomy 7:9

“You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.” John 15:16

“His Voice In My Heart”

‘His Voice in My Heart’ is a journey that speaks from the Heart of God. Listen as His Love validates you, and speaks messages to heal, confirm, and deepen your relationship IN HIM.

You may not struggle in life but know of one who does. ‘His Voice in My Heart’ will give insight into the journey of another, deepening your understanding of what they face while allowing His compassion to fill your heart for another.

Just Us

An audience of one, that’s all I ask of you. I work with you as an individual, personally. Our relationship should be just that–personal.

I trust that you want to know My heart, as I know yours.

The difference is, I know you completely and you can never know all that I AM.

I AM too vast for the human mind to perceive, therefore, I ask you to know me with your heart. Follow who I AM and believe. It’s simple to start, but the more you grow, the deeper you go into My heart–the more you grow.

“I will give them a heart to know that I am the Lord; and they shall be my people and I will be their God, for they shall return to me with their whole heart.” Jeremiah 24:7

It is like a deep, deep well that becomes deeper the more you drink, likewise, the more you drink, the clearer you see how much more you have to drink. You will thirst no more in that you will be satisfied–you’ve found the Truth.

“Jesus said to her, ‘Every one who drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst; the water that I shall give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” John 4:13-14

Water is a universal substance necessary to life that is still free. Rich or poor, all can partake; all can find a source of water to maintain life.

All can partake of Me.

I AM free.

I AM Life.

“Ho, every one who thirsts come to the waters; and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.” Isaiah 55:1

Come to me, an audience of one. If you ask for a drink, I will give freely the Water of Life, that you may thirst no more.

But ever live to drink again–More!

“For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of the glory he may grant you to be strengthened with might through his Spirit in the inner man, and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have power to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth, and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fulness of God.” Ephesians 3:14-19

“With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.” Isaiah 12:3

“How precious is thy steadfast love, O God! The children of men take refuge in the shadow of thy wings. They feast on the abundance of thy house, and thou givest them drink from the river of thy delights. For with thee is the fountain of life; in thy light do we see light.” Psalms 36:7-9

 

 

Will you Wait?

Blessings come to those who wait. Waiting does not have to be passive or inactive but, rather, it can be an opportunity to

  • Trust
  • Seek
  • Listen

Trust is a matter of the heart, for one cannot trust without relationship. Without relationship, fellowship and a history there is no basis for trust.

Seek is an action. If you are seeking you are actually expecting an end result; seek and ye shall find.

Listen do you hear it? My still small voice? If you are just too busy or too busy talking–if you are always the one speaking, you will not hear.

So–wait.

Will you trust Me and seek Me with all your heart? Will you listen while I speak?

Then  you are BLESSED!

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” Is. 55:8-9

“Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser; teach a righteous man and he will increase in learning. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight. For by me your days will be multiplied, and years will be added to your life.” Prov. 9:9-11

“Make me to know thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth and teach me for thou art the God of my salvation; for thee I wait all the day long.” Ps. 25:4-5
