Father…it’s me.
Hello My love. I’ve been waiting for you.
You have Lord? We talk every morning!
My daughter, I have much to say to you. I love talking with you and being near you. You are Mine -My hearts desire for you is great.
Lord, I feel so loved by You. I desire to always live my life in this place of security, knowing I am loved by You.
My daughter. If you could see all that is with you; all of heaven and all My love -what is against you pales in comparison.
Lord, You know all things. You know I keep measuring my worth with my failure-measuring-utensils. I think about how others see me and I measure myself by how I think they see me. This is a thought pattern I’ve developed as a child and it’s hard to think differently. I know it’s a trap of the enemy. Please come and do Your work inside my heart and help me to build a healthy way of thinking.
My daughter, look to Me for your worth, always.
Father, You are the Lover of my soul. Please fill me with Your Holy Presence as we spend time together each day.
You are absolutely right My child. I am Love, so when you spend time with Me everyday, My love in you will grow! This is the place I want you to live your life; from a full-of-love heart’s perspective. This is how I see you, whole and complete in Me -I cherish you.
Jesus, I want to be just like You!
My daughter, stay very close to Me. You are Mine and I want the best for you. You feel the most comfortable when you keep quietly to yourself, but I want you to speak what’s on your heart to others. I want others to see our relationship because I want them to want what you and I have. I will draw many to Me through your work.
Lord, I will do this because of my love for You.
I will honour that My daughter. You have found favour with Me.
Lord, I don’t know where my journey with You will lead, but I want to follow You, please You, and serve You with all my heart!
I am certainly pleased with you My daughter. Do not be afraid of what you do not see, for I will lead you in the way you should go.
Okay Lord. I desire to live with a full-of-love heart’s perspective. I will walk by faith and not by sight. Your ways with me are good because You are Good, and You are good at being Good!
Smile. I am in love with you my daughter!
And I am in love with You my Shepherd!
Thoughts:
This was the first day I added another prayer time in my day. A few months prior to this a desire began to grow in my heart to talk with God in a different time setting, in addition to the one I was already doing. I felt this would be a refreshing time for me that was different than my early morning prayer time because I wasn’t coming to Him half asleep. I also wasn’t sure I’d post these afternoon conversations and so I had more freedom to say what I really wanted to say -I could have real heart-to-heart conversations with Him without the pressure of being politically correct.
Deep in my heart I also wanted God to prove Himself to me by still having things to talk about even though we already had a conversation early in the morning. There had always been a little bit of doubt, or wondering as to how much I was hearing God’s voice and how much was my own, but God would always confirm the importance of our time together, which also confirmed that I really was hearing the voice of God in my heart.
