Deeply Rooted

My Father, you are so good. Thank you for your great mercy over me, and thank you for giving me hope again this morning.

My daughter, your walk is delightful to me. I’m pleased with you.

Father, I believe you’re birthing something in me.

I am.

Jesus, Holy Spirit, as I was praying in the Spirit this morning, you began to unfold a vision in my heart about coaching others. I’m thinking it’s going to mirror our journey into intimacy. It’s about building deep friendship with you first; becoming deeply rooted in you builds friendship that grows into becoming intimate, and I believe it always needs to be this way -with you first and then with those you bring into our lives. 

Caroline come, walk with me. I have something for you this morning -I am faithful. 

Thank you Jesus for your great love -I feel loved and close to you. I give you my heart again as I turn fully to you again and be refreshed. Thank you for ministering to my heart, bringing new life in me again. I wan to complete what you’ve given me to do and I’m thankful for your help.

Come my daughter, all is well with you. You are mine and I love you. 

Reflection:

Alright, I know that this particular part of my journey with the Lord is nearly over, and I feel encouraged about doing my next recording. I woke up this morning at 3:43 because I heard these words in my heart: “Deep roots that are being grown is a deep friendship being built.” When I think about this and about journeying with the Lord, these words sum it all up; growing our roots deeply into the Lord is a journey that will never end. When we’re grounded in the Lord it’s because of time spent with him, growing in friendship which leads to true intimacy with him. And this endurance of growing in relationship grows our roots deeply into Him which is the core of how we relate to others and our friendship and relationship with them. I think that when people have been journeying together with the Lord and that know their calling because of this, then the Lord can bring people together to work together, becoming a stronger unity for him. I’m saying this, knowing that I have so much to grow in.  I’ve made so many mistakes along this journey with the Lord, but through them I’ve also learned how to be resilient. So now that I’ve said this, I’m being held accountable as I take a deep breath and plan my next recording, which I will do this week. Many many blessings to you as you also keep walking and getting back up.
