The Invisible Feb.28

And Jesus whispered:

 "The kingdom of the Father stays hidden from the clever deceit of earthly motivations. It quietly lives in the true way, when I said, ‘I am the Way.’  The kingdom settles into what appears a subtle reality. Yet, it is a permanent reality. It is an open secret to those who genuinely search. All God’s secrets are open to those who have eyes to see and ears to hear. The invisible shimmers all around you, ready to be discovered. The kingdom secrets are the kingdom truths. Watch for them daily. Scripture reveals much."

  

Prayer: Lord, keep me attentive to your truths being shown every day through the little things.

Discovery Feb.27

And Jesus reminded me:

"My kingdom, the kingdom of Christ breathes within you. Together we work to create a true self. So, in one sense, the more you discover your true self, the more you give opportunity to experience the kingdom. The false self, the one that wants only what it wants, is still with you. You must nail it to a cross daily. Try your best to respond with total honesty. Honesty does not mean you have to tell all your weaknesses to the public. Choose to tell the truth whenever an opportunity arises and let the true self grow."

Prayer: Lord, help me know the difference between the true self and the false.

Right Motivation Feb.26

And the Lord said:

"A person’s spirit who becomes a slave to a process of earning salvation stays misguided compared to a spirit who knows the thrill of adoption by the Father. He has made you sons and daughters through Me. I am your Way. This is why I told you to worship Me in spirit and in truth. The reality of adoption is an unbreakable truth. I paid for your sins on the Cross. You owe me nothing but your self-will. Let your spirit have the joy of what I’ve done. You do not have to earn any favor. Joy comes through acceptance and praise."

Prayer: Lord, thank you I am your adopted sibling and reborn into your Kingdom.

Grief Feb.25

Holy Spirit said:

"Grief that leads to negative human guilt is not of God. Negative guilt wants punishment. It wants to pay. Any kind of worldly grief or guilt produces a path to death, your enemy. You can grieve the passing of a loved one or for other unjust issues in the world, but let your hurt remain in faith to Me who has the final power over pain and death. If you grieve as the Father wills it, then it is all right because this grief can lead to repentance."

Prayer: Lord, thank you that you are the Comforter for any heartache.

Idols Feb.24

Holy Spirit reminded:

   "Eros is the kind of love that wants something back because it has conditions, and it may create knowledge. Knowledge alone can puff up pride. Agape love, Heavenly Father’s love, unconditional, builds up other-centered motives. Pay close attention to those who want you to love something.  Any temporary system, thing, or individual that becomes an obsession can become an idol, when it tries to claim and set up absolute truth for the self alone. To avoid idol making, let the Holy Spirit show you the only two absolutes in your thinking: Jesus and The Father’s kingdom.

Prayer: Lord, please keep my faith strong in the events of your kingdom

Glory Feb.23

The Spirit reminded:

        "EVERYTHING------Yes, everything, was made for the glory of the Father. He bestowed upon Me all things, the universe, creation, the souls, the very essence of humanity. I am the Way of Art. I am the Way of Nature. I am the Way of Beauty. I am Life. All things, even the smallest act, are to glorify the Father. In Him, all things hold together. Chaos would reign without His Glory."

Prayer: Thank you, Lord, for the beauty you send and the forgiveness of your Grace.

Presence Feb.22

Jesus reminded me:

        "I have said to you that I would be with you always because the Holy Spirit stays among you. Separations occur when things happen like an unloving act, a lack joy, when you are impatient, when you lack peace, when forgetting kindness, when making faithless decisions, when you push justice without mercy, when you are out of control. And even in all of those, I am still here, but your own awareness brings us together or pushes us further apart. Your own nature condemns, not Me. Your worthiness is not the issue. Accepting My forgiving presence is. Your alertness power still resides in your consent."    

Prayer: Lord, forgive my impatience and keep me alert to your path.
