If you are visiting  fromGraceforGlory for the first time, please take a minute to  read the ABOUT section.   I believe God has given me the ability to hear Him  —  so you can hear him also.  He calls me His Child –  but has reminded me often that these words are for ALL His children.   I invite you to listen as HIS child.  Remember always,  God loves you. †

January 29, 2015   (Note – the Lord shared with me this morning that I need to post older conversations, there are more than a dozen volumes.  To post the current day’s conversation lends itself to self-scrutiny, anticipating a public audience.  At least for now, as I am beginning to test my earthly limits of human-ness , humility, obedience and total surrender — that’s how I’ll proceed.  Thank you dear friends.)

January 29 | Lord Jesus, I come to You unworthy – yet yearning for Your love.  I ask that You forgive my sins, that You forgive me when I fall short of the example Jesus came here and suffered so greatly to set for us.  I pray that our conversations remain intimate and honest and pure. Now that I’ve begun to share, I pray that it won’t hinder the precious moments I have in Your glory… not for me Lord, but for Your children.  I pray that my heart stays fully Yours, and resists the criticism and cynicism of the world – that in obedience I hear only the Spirit, You Lord, and that no personal or worldly thoughts enter the moment … only Your word.  Father, hear my prayer.

I pray for Rocky, I pray that You take him home soon.  I can’t see him suffer any more.  He is dying and while I hoped for a miracle, he is so sick.  I know it is time.  Thank You for letting us have him this long.  Please take him home, Father.

Thank You for the new association with Anthia and Carone.  I feel safe with them.  Bless them Father.  Bless the business they are birthing and bless their family and all that they do for You.  Father, bless our union, our partnership for we come together in Your name.  May all that we do together be blessed and please You.

Father, I feel fragile though I know you need me to be strong.  To hear Your word, I must be an empty vessel, totally open and totally vulnerable.  And to speak Your word I must be absent also, for your children must hear You, not me.  I depend fully on Your protection, my source of strength is the truth of the word.  I am nothing without You, no strength, no courage …

“Child, shhhhh, you have tremendous courage and strength.   You are not weak – you are wise.  You brilliantly see the truth – and brilliantly you must shine for the radiance of grace is a beacon which attracts listeners.  You will speak and they will come.  Child, it takes great courage and strength to put yourself in such a vulnerable place; where you have shed every judgment, every disguise, every source of protection … where you have opened your heart fully, totally exposed.

It takes great courage and great love and great trust.

And great wisdom, devotion and obedience.

Child … and humility.  Speak with humility, live humbly.

Shshshs. … be still and listen child… it is okay.  Your mind may wander but I have your heart – be still.. shh shh sh and return.

Child, go to the Word and be blessed – go now and return.”

Father – You sent me to Romans 15:13

“I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him.  Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.”

Blessed, gracious Father, thank You for the mercy of confirmation.  Your will reigns supreme.

“Child – the confirmation is not to assure you… it is to reward you; a loving gift for faithful surrender.

Go into this day sure of the truth of your work.

Sure of the greatness of my Son’s love.

Sure of the power of faith and sure of the destination.

Eternal love – real, authentic, unconditional.

Sh sh sh, yes child, eternal love that knows no boundaries and knows no strangers, all-encompassing and glorious.

Child, live that truth – love all – with all your heart.

Love your enemies and consciously love those who are easy to love.

It is easy, child, to take them for granted while you focus on the prayerful intention it takes to love your enemies.  Be diligent.

Love is gentle and fragile and powerful.

It is your greatest defense and offence against evil.

Love greatly.

Love earnestly.

Love completely.

Love Jesus.

Go into the day to love”

Amen Amen Amen
