Know Me as I Know You

“the promise of the Lord proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.” (2 Samuel 22:31)

I would gather you as a hen gathers her chicks – only turn toward Me, and come into my welcoming arms – I long to shield you from harm, to warm you from the coldness of the world, to comfort all your hurts; you can grow and mature right within the confines of Myself – it is the only place where you can grow and mature at your fastest and best.

Do not seek your peace, your purpose, your joy outside the confines of My Spirit. This will only frustrate you and thwart My will for your best good.

You are My chosen, beloved; I seek to manifest My love to you: open your eyes and your heart to understand and to perceive My expressions of love.

See Me in your family and friends.

Hear Me in the Word.

Feel Me in the baby’s touch.

Taste Me in the food provided for your health.

Smell Me in the flower’s perfume.

But, most of all, know Me in your spirit, come to know Me as I know you.

The clues are in your life. Time bids you to hurry on, not a moment of regret need pass over you if you desire to find Me, know Me, love Me, dwell with Me.
