He Finds Me

I hear the voice of my Beloved,
Here He comes,
Leaping with joy, over immense obstacles,
To find me...
He comes with much joy and anticipation,
To the place where I hide...

He knows the places I hide,
Hide from my feelings, hide from the pain, hide from the truth,
He comes to these places... and gazes...
Gazes into my soul,
With longing and desire.
Pursing me with His love,
Planting those seeds of hope and desire...

Yes, He comes,
Skipping over the hills of separation...
He comes,
Gazes...
Waits...

And then He announces,
"It is time My beloved,
It is time for the bondage of the barren winter to end!
It is time for the cold rains to disappear!
It is time for a new season ...
A new season of poured out grace to come,
A new day of destiny is surrounding you,
It is time for you to ARISE,
Come with Me to a higher place.
I have more for you, 
More fullness,
More joy, 
More goodness...

Come away with Me my precious one."

The Dew of Joy

On my walk this morning, I passed a field that was thick with dew. Sparkling jewels glistened and the brilliant rays of the sun, as it slowly climbed in the sky, showcased its beauty.

The dew has a source that is unseen.
I can see the rain and the snow descending from the heavens to nourish the earth,
But the dew appears invisibly, yet it nourishes and refreshes the ground.

The dew is a bit like joy...

Joy is that gift that the Lord gives me, even though circumstances don't appear joyful.
Yes, it is showcased by the Son, as I gaze upon Him.
He pours it down, and up from the wells of living water within,
But I cannot see it.

But I can feel this gift, as it lessens the trial.
Joy allows me to see the provision that is possible,
It stirs up hope, creates ideas, leads to rest, restoring me to peace.

Joy is the key He gives me to enter...
Enter into His presence.

He tells me to rejoice at all times....
How He desires to pour out this gift of joy so He can march me to victory.
It is His protection, His medicine for me...

He loves to see His children exploding with joy, sparkling with delight,
Because it is then that He sees us discovering who He really wants to be for us.

The Father's Plea

Will you accept My gift,
My gift of revelation truth,
My gift that will make you wise, prosperous, hopeful, joyful, peaceful,
My gift that will cause you to lead, give you purpose in life,
My gift that marches you to victory?

Please don't reject My gift, ignore My gift, deem it as invaluable.
It has the keys to life.
Please don't receive it, then forget about it...

My dear one,
It is My cherished gift that will protect and rescue you.

It is My wisdom :
A most valuable commodity,
It will exalt you, bring you into honor and favor.

As My wisdom wraps itself around you,
You will shine with beauty and grace,
You will always be victorious in the race.

Listen, My dear one, I speak to you as your Father...
Your progress will have no limits when you choose Me and My ways...
As you walk with Me, your feet will not stumble or trip.
My wisdom is invigorating life, devoid of darkness.

Choose My path, My dear one...
My path is the highway of light,
My path shines with promise, hope, peace and joy.

Why would you choose to stray,
Onto the path of darkness,
Where trouble is waiting, pain is diffused, and destruction is waiting?
Why travel in the fog when you have the choice to travel with Me in the brightness of the day
   surrounded with promise and hope?

My dear one...
Set your gaze upon Me,
Have a fixed purpose,
A determined resolution,
To look straight ahead, ignoring the distractions of life...

Stick to the path of Truth.
This path is safe,
This path is smooth,
This path will lead you to wholeness and fullness.
This is the path I planned for you,
This is the path for the wise,
This is the path for you, My beloved...

Come I will go with you...
