Waking up in the morning. Anticipating His voice. What will He tell me today? What secrets of His heart will I learn? How can I please Him? What is on HIS HEART for our world? Who is needing me to speak for Him today?
These are all questions I long to answer. Anticipation grows. The excitement of the moment. Longingly, I come into His presence. As I approach, I see He is
happy to see me. Daddy! Oh, how I love just being with HIM! He looks deeply within me, excited to see me and I let Him carry me up to His chest and He sets me right where I can look right into His face as He speaks.
Today, its just an 'us' moment. Today, it's my Jesus. Sometimes He just wants to be with me. Make it personal. Put YOUR NAME in every statement. His eyes upon YOU as you read. Because it is YOU He has longed for beloved. Sometimes He just wants to cuddle, and sometimes He will tell me things that He experienced when He became a man and things hurt. Both of these draw me closer to HIM. Knowing how He 'felt' during His experience of having the heavens opened and Father GOD publically approving of Him. Even the moments when His mother cuddled Him and protected Him. How she carefully watched over Him and held each declaration of what He would become close to her heart. He loved that about her.
There are times when He will tell me things that I didn't know He told others. When I would find these secrets in other people's heart when they spoke, I felt like they were reading my mail. That's private! Mine and Daddy's! Oh, I had so much to learn. All of us are on a journey. Destination is God's heart, but the journey is what He is interested in. GOD loves to invest in you! You are such valuable jewel to HIM. Much more rare than the jewels this earth could house. More vast than the sands of the sea. More rare than the rarest find. He didn't make another. There is only ONE YOU and it's for YOU He has come . To bring you HOME to HIS HEART. Are you ready?
Today, look around you. Who needs a measure of hope? What in earth has lack that you can see today? How should we SEE the world around us? Questions mount up when people look at the economy around them.The devastation at times keeps them from SEEING clearly with their heart. Today, I am removing your focus from what discourages and putting it upon the ONE. He is Your hearts center and He will keep You safe. So it's 'safe' to dream. Take a moment: what pulls on your heart strings? What lack do you see? What can you do in your realm of influence to make a difference? Let's start there.
Finding hope is the treasure we are looking for. What can we do to make our hope secure? Look for testimonies of the faithfulness of God in other people's lives and share them. Find in scripture in the midst of chaotic times and bring chaortic release. Bring ORDER to that which is not. Bring light to that which is in darkness. How? Looking into His face. You see, when you spend time with Him, that one simple experiences changes how you are. Not who you are, but how you respond, how you see, and what you do. You start to come in line with your IDENTITY when you do. That is the most important time of the day. The time you spend face to Face with Daddy God.
So find your focus today. Look into His face and just receive that love. That hope. That experience with HIM, so that you begin to shift your goals to the ONE. He is the goal. When we make Him our center and our focus, it's easy to bring others along for the ride. So are you ready? Spend some time together with Him and see what He wants to say to you.
SPEAK LORD, for your child hears.
Today's scripture meditation is: Isaiah 42 and 43. Full chapters in context. I want you to look for His heart and what He does in these scriptures. If you feel led to comment, please feel free to do so. All in all, I want you to 'look' at scripture in the light of His face. Through the eyes of hope and the focus of His heart. amen?
