Granting Rest to the Old Mare Within

 


My child,

If you open your heart and truly listen, you will hear My message echo softly, again and again:

Today.
Not yesterday’s weight.
Not tomorrow’s worry.
Today.

Just for today, receive the breath I give you.
Choose to live—not by striving, but by faith.
Let trust be your resting place.

Every morning, gently guide the “old mare” within you who you push too hard.
Come. Let Me lead her to stillness.
To lush meadows where grace grows freely.
To quiet places where she can lie down and be restored.

You do not need to earn My love.
You are already Mine.

One day at a time, let Me love you.
Let My love be your nourishment, your shelter, your song.

Listen for Me in the hush of morning.
I am always speaking.
Calling you to live in the NOW—where peace waits, and I walk beside you.

With love beyond measure,

Prayers the Heart Cannot Speak


In the hush of weakness, the Spirit speaks what I cannot


While many resist weakness, I’ve come to cherish it. It strips away pretense, invites honesty, and opens the soul to divine dependence. In our frailty, the Spirit intercedes—not with words, but with groanings too deep to name. Weakness becomes the sacred space where God meets us most intimately.

With love beyond measure,

Resting in the Now

Sink down into the present like a bubble bath


My beloved child, rest in your limitations. Although I am omnipotent, and my existence spans from past to future across all eternity, you are finite. Your power is limited to the present moment. Don't spread yourself too thin. When you prioritize your energies and worries for the past and future, you drain your true power-source in the present. I am the Great I AM, not the Great I Was or the Great I Will Be (Exodus 3:14).

Take the present moment and sink down into it with me like a bubble bath. I can always be found in the present. Focus intently on a beautiful sight, sound, or sensation in real time. Take longer than might seem necessary to notice all the sights, sounds, and sensations around you. Stay there with me, and you will find peace and comfort.

"Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own" (Matthew 6:34).

With love beyond measure,
