February 21, 2014  Father, I struggle with priorities and things un-done .. with focus, distractions … and the to-do list seems to grow.  I feel lazy when I am busy and I seem to always have things unfinished around me.  Father, I pray for a settled heart, sure of service, that all that I do is in honor to you, and pleases you Father.  I pray for a discerning heart – that I say YES to only which you desire my commitment.

“Child, rest and know you are mine … and you live in a world where urgency is the standard.  It is the pace … so all that is undone makes you anxious for you can not rest until all is done … Child, all that matters IS done.  Tetelestai – it is finished.  Child, blessed child, rest in that truth.

It is done – so you are forgiven.

No man can judge you.  The son of God – my son – died that you shall never be judged, except in a heavenly court. 

Child, live life – live each moment.

Not by what is undone –

But by what IS done.

For what He did for you

Live in glory – in grace –in joy

All that you do – do it joyfully in the service of Love.

Not with a heavy heart, urgently – taskfully – so you can check something off the list

Do it in service to Lord Jesus – reverently, purposefully – joyfully … revering every second of the work and doing your best because He deserves your best – as He gave his ALL for you.

Love the service – do not rush – but do not procrastinate

Procrastination is the devil’s intrusion – his interruption – his futile attempt at keeping you from the joy of laboring for the Lord.

When you see that all you do is in service to the King – blessed service – how could you delay?  And how could you hurry and hasten through the work haphazardly.  

Cherish each obligation, knowing you are serving the Lord

Work with love and honor

And rest in the truth that no man can judge you as a person – only Me child, and I love you.

Child, go into the day in deliberate, loving labor..

Mine – beautiful and cherished…

Child, love as you are loved.

Rest peacefully in the arms of my Son.

 Go – now – in peace.”

Amen  Amen  Amen

“Child, yes, I took you to Ezekiel 28”

… there was much about my punishment to Tyre – to the nation – and to their King, who considered himself God – and that his wisdom was not of me. 

 “Child, since it was truly not of me — out of pride he credited himself – he was NOT wise, but very foolish – and led Tyre into great suffering.

As with Egypt – and their leaders

A wise man knows and listens to me – and serves in humility.  As Daniel who claimed all his wisdom came from me – His God – the only God

Child – you are wise because you know the truth

And seek wisdom

Before you begin your day,

Before you begin your tasks

You come to me.

 Child, you are not confused, as you prayed

You are wise … and cherished.

Know how I cherish you.  Go boldly into the day

Be joyful and serve in truth

Mine – only mine

I love you, precious child”

Amen  Amen  Amen
