My Father, I thank you for and trust your leadership over me, the covering you’re placing over my life. The way you do things and the plans you have for me, even though I can only see so far, are more amazing than words can describe. I’m so thrilled to be walking where I’m meant to walk and could never have come here on my own..we need each other.
My daughter, I equally enjoy our walk and am overjoyed that you’re pursuing me with all your heart. Thank you for being willing to follow me into the deep unknown.
Father, I can’t help but think about the years before this, when you were so strict with me about our time together each day. I understand that you were laying down a strong foundation so that what I’m doing now is being built on this foundation, the core of it being a love relationship with you.
This is true my loved one. I’m always working in your heart, preparing you for what is to come -love endures all.
My Father, I don’t feel alone anymore, being sure of our walk together. Thank you for your awesome work in me and for continuing to open my eyes to understanding more of what has been said..it’s like the more times I hear the words of a song, the more understanding I have -I know it’s you Holy Spirit who’s doing this. Thank you that my heart is important to you.
You are important to me Caroline.
Thank you Dad.
Reflection:
I dreamt last night that what I’m currently doing as I post my writing each day is right, but I cannot neglect also speaking. The one who’s led me to start speaking hadn’t placed any judgment on me, thank-you Jesus, this truly warms my heart.. I’m finding the courage to begin again sooner rather than later. It’s true that I’m not afraid of it, but finding what to talk about is more of a challenge. I can’t come up with things randomly, but I can only speak about what God has shown me, so I believe I have something again.
I’m recognizing how God works with me; if I’ve stopped walking, he waits for me to initiate before walking again, which makes sense. He helps me get up, but the initiation needs to come from me, which I’ve been taking too long to do. I think God would have shown me sooner what to talk about if I had gotten up sooner:) In this Thanksgiving weekend, I thank God for this protective covering.. not placing judgment but also not allowing me to sit in the puddle of self for too long. Love leads and endures all!!
