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,

Jesus

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.

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,

Your Answered Prayer is Ready and Waiting

Do you ever feel as if your prayers dissolve into the vast expanse without reply?

Sometimes, you may repeatedly ask me for the same thing, which can demonstrate dogged determination and persistence, as illustrated in the parable of the persistent widow who continually seeks justice from the judge (Luke 18:1-8). However, anxiously repeated prayers can also indicate a lack of faith, as if you doubt that I have heard you or that I will respond.

Instead, try to ask once in faith for whatever you need, and from then on, thank me for moving and acting on your behalf. Believe that your request is already fulfilled in the spiritual realm and is merely waiting to be manifested in the realm of time and space.

Therefore, pray in faith and then express gratitude that the answer is ready and on its way.

"Then they asked him, 'What must we do to do the works God requires?' Jesus answered, 'The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent'" (John 6:27-28).

The Rat, the Bomb, and the Brave Heart: Lessons from a Fearless Rodent

🔍 The Practice of Peace

Here’s how fear loses its grip: You face it. With Me. Boldly.

Think of the worst-case scenario—not to dwell there, but to disarm it. Ask yourself:

• What would I do if this happened?
• What would God do?
• Would I survive? And if not, what then?

I’ll be in every answer. Every possibility. Every outcome.

The trick isn’t to pretend you’re invincible. It’s to remember I’m immovable. You won’t face the storm alone—I’ll face it with you.

🎯 Believe for the Best

Once you've sat with the fear and invited Me in... then lift your eyes.

Hope isn’t naïve—it’s sacred. You were created to imagine beauty, to dream of healing, to believe in goodness. That’s Me, breathing through you.

So I ask you to live wisely:

• Prepare for what might go wrong
• Believe for the most beautiful outcome 
• And rest with Me between the two—where faith breathes and fear dissolves

🕊️ Final Word: You’re Not Alone on the Bomb

Fear loses its grip when you walk into the worst-case scenario—with Me in the room.

I never said you’d avoid the valley of the shadow. I said I would lead you through it—and you would never be alone.

So go ahead. Imagine the worst, and let Me show you how you’d survive, heal, or be held. Then lift your eyes, and believe for the best. That’s not presumption—it’s hope, rooted in My goodness.

Prepare for the storm with Me. Believe for the breakthrough with Me. And sit beside Me on whatever bomb life tries to place beneath you.

I hold both outcomes. And I hold you

With love beyond measure,

Jesus

When Selfishness is Good

           

 
My beloved, I know your heart. I know that even your most generous acts often carry hidden longings—for approval, for purpose, for love. And I do not condemn you for this. I created you with desire. I shaped you to seek.

Even when you obey Me, there is still something in it for you—a sense of peace, a hope for reward, a longing to please. But do not be ashamed of this. What you call selfishness, I call hunger. It is part of the way I designed you to be. And I am not offended by your hunger when you bring it to Me.

When you gave your life to Me, I began the quiet work of reshaping your motives—not to erase your desires, but to redeem them. I mean for you to be motivated by, even greedy for, heavenly rewards. I do not ask you to stamp out your longing. I ask you to let Me direct it.

It is possible to have a wrong desire, but there will be many more moments when you simply enjoy the sweetness I’ve placed in your life—like a child (or a puppy) delighting in a scoop of ice cream. And there will be moments when you feel moved to share that sweetness with someone else. Both are beautiful. Both can reflect My heart. What matters is not whether you indulge or give, but whether your heart is turned toward Me in the moment. When it is, even the smallest joys become sacred.

So come to Me with your desires, even the ones you don’t fully understand. I am not looking for perfection—I am looking for connection. And in that connection, I will teach you how to love in ways that bring life to others and to you.

With love beyond measure,

Jesus

Quashing the voices of disapproval

 My child, So many of you carry the ache of others’ disapproval. You feel the sting of human judgment and wonder if it reflects the truth. But listen to the Scripture: “Who will accuse those whom God has chosen? God has approved of them. Who will condemn them?” (Romans 8:33-34 GWT).

Repeat those words any time you feel disapproval, and the Word of God will set you free. Let them echo through your soul. I am the One who holds the gavel—and I have declared you innocent. Washed in My blood, you are accepted, covered, and cherished. The opinions of others—even your own harsh inner voice—hold no power beside My verdict.

When their words unsettle you … when your thoughts accuse… return to Me. Whisper it aloud if you must: “God approves of me, who will condemn? God approves of me, who will condemn?”

Of course, the answer to that is no one. No one, not the most spiteful person, has the right to contradict what I say is true.

I do not condemn you. I intercede for you. I plead your cause continually, not out of obligation but out of boundless love. My death and resurrection secured your freedom, and nothing—nothing—can separate you from My love.

So rest, beloved. Trust My approval above every voice. It is enough. With love that cannot be undone, – Jesus

With love beyond measure,

Jesus

Jesus Took Your Shame—Walk in His Freedom

Do you ever feel like a lowly worm—burdened by shame, guilt, or a vague sense of worthlessness? Do you feel as though you are failing, yet you don’t even know exactly how? As if I do not fully accept you just as you are?

If you do, hear this truth: those feelings are not from Me.

I did not come to condemn you but to save you. The weight of shame is never something I place upon My children. I despise shame—so much so that I took it upon Myself on the cross, so you would never have to bear it. Hebrews 12:2 says that I scorned the shame, endured the cross, and now sit at the right hand of the Father. My sacrifice removes your shame and restores you to honor before God.

Yet, sadly, many of My children still live under the burden of shame, believing they are unworthy, believing they are somehow failing Me without knowing why. But Romans 8:1 declares that there is no condemnation for those who are in Me. When I convict, I do so with clarity, direction, and encouragement.

Look at how I interact with My children in Scripture. I never tell an actual person that they are simply "bad" or "wrong." Instead, I gently and specifically point out areas where growth is needed. You may call yourself a loser, please don't, but you will never hear anything like that from Me. Instead, I might say, "You know your drinking is starting to affect your relationships with people you love." 

I do not leave you in despair with your sin—I come alongside you, placing My arm around your shoulder, and I show you the way forward: I say, "Do you see that? We are going there, together."

I do not hold you in shame. I lift you up.

You are no longer a lowly worm. In Me, you are a butterfly.

God’s never too busy to hear your prayer

He Listens, Always There is no such thing as a small prayer in the eyes of God. No whispered need goes unnoticed, no quiet ache is ignored. Whether your words tumble out with tears or stay hidden beneath silence, the One who formed your heart is already listening.

In this voice-only reflection, you’re gently reminded that you never have to measure your worthiness before coming to Him. He hears the tiniest sigh and holds every request—spoken or unspoken—with deep compassion.

Let this message be a reminder: you are never interrupting Him. His door is always open. His heart is always turned toward you.

Shattered Yet Rising

When you falter—when it feels like everything has fallen apart, even by your own hand—I remain. I am the One who forgives, who rebuilds, who breathes life into what seems lost. One of My greatest joys is turning ashes into wonder (Isaiah 61:3).

Like a tender bloom rising from shattered shell, what looks like the end is often the beginning— a quiet unfolding of something new, something unimagined, something that will one day make you smile in awe.

Your Secret Identity is the Cure for Guilt

 

Many of My children say they are just sinners saved by grace. Untrue. You were a sinner; you are now saved by grace. And because of that, you are quintessentially good.

Are you overwhelmed with guilt? My apostle, Paul, agonized over his own sin. In Romans 7:24, he cries out: "Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death?"

But the identity of sin in Romans 7 is no longer yours. The moment you received Me, everything changed—you now live in My victory and freedom.

In fact, Paul goes even further: He says that when he sins, it is no longer him! "So I am not the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it." (Romans 7:17) "But if I do what I don’t want to do, I am not really the one doing wrong; it is sin living in me that does it." (Romans 7:20)

How can this be? It means being a sinner is no longer Paul’s identity (or your own identity) at his core. His true self—and your true self—has been recreated to be the righteousness of God in Me (2 Corinthians 5:21 GNT). There is now no condemnation for those who are in Me.

Approach Me without fear—freedom from guilt is My gift to you, and like any gift, the giver desires that you delight in it.

Though at times you sin, goodness is now your true identity—the core of who you are. Your feelings about yourself, may waver, but truth does not change. Now you are ‘born again,’ fresh as a newborn colt and as innocent as a babe adored by its mother (John 3:3).

The struggle with sin in Romans 7 is over—now you live in the victory and freedom of Romans 8. Rejoice and abide in Me, for you are safe and fully acceptable.

Do you believe that I have fully freed you from guilt? What holds you back from embracing your true identity in Me?

Jesus

Strength disguised as weakness

The world values might, intelligence, and self-sufficiency, but I do not. My Kingdom is upside down—where the weak are strong (2 Corinthians 12:10), where the foolish confound the wise (1 Corinthians 1:27-29), and where the powerless inherit My strength. Even on earth, I was despised and rejected—a Man of Sorrows, well acquainted with grief (Isaiah 53:3). But sorrow was not defeat. Suffering, endured with faith, leads to glory and redemption.

My beloved child, rest in your limitations. Though I am all-powerful, spanning eternity, you are finite—and that is no flaw. Weakness is not a deficiency, but a vessel through which My power flows. I have designed it this way—strength disguised as frailty, victory hidden within surrender.

I was crucified in weakness (2 Corinthians 13:4) yet raised in power. The cross looked like failure but became the greatest victory of all time (Colossians 2:15). Strength is perfected in weakness—this is My pattern.

So if you feel frail, if you feel small, if you feel incapable—you are exactly where I move most powerfully. Rest in your weakness, and let Me be your strength (Psalm 28:7).

"Do you believe this?" (John 11:26) Leave a comment below—your thoughts matter.

AUTHOR’S NOTE: I personally have struggled with weakness and failure because I have rheumatoid arthritis and stage 4 kidney disease, as well as other conditions. But Christ has used my suffering to draw me into vital intimacy with Himself which has given me the ability to create this blog. If you feel you can’t make an impact, remember that is not from God. He will use you where you are, how you are.

Be Held: Resting in the Love of the One Who Names the Stars

There are 1 septillion stars (which is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 stars) in the observable universe. It is a number so vast the human mind cannot grasp it. And even more profound is the fact that I have given each star its own name (Isaiah 40:26). Each star. A different name for each of 200 septillion stars.

I name the stars, each one, as a reflection of My boundless attention. If I care for inanimate objects this way, how much more do I know your heart, your struggles, and your joys?” How much more valuable are you, my child, than 1 septillion stars.

I love every created thing, living and not living. Everything in My creation is good and excellent, including you (Genesis 1:31). You are not just part of a vast universe, but you are personally known and cherished by Me, the Creator.

So you can understand that I hold you and keep track of every molecule in your body. You are safe in My heart – all of you, mind, body, and soul.

The message is this: Be Held. Lean in and be held. Feel my arms around you and rest in My divine love rather than striving to be worthy of it. Absorb my love. Remember you are safe and beloved. Always.

Think back to a time My love gently shifted your path—how did you feel? What changed in you?

Love: The Flame of the Soul

 

Faith is not so much believing as receiving. When you put your faith in Me, My love and My beauty get inside you and shake up your thinking and your perspectives, for the better. When you receive My love, you begin to be able to love those around you—even those EGR souls (Extra Grace Required) who are so difficult to love. My infinite love will flow through you to them.

Just as love can makeover an unlovely soul when one human being loves another. How much exponentially greater can My love transform your soul, you’re very self. In the same way, as Sleeping Beauty was awakened by the kiss of the Prince, so too does My love awaken the sleeping soul—transforming you from darkness into life and love. I am the Holy Prince, and My kiss is not of fleeting romance, but of eternal redemption. Let My light awaken your heart. Let your heart swell with My love. The more it does, the more you will become a vessel—a conduit of My love flowing through you. 

You do not need to strive or struggle—only rest in My love. Light your candle, surrender to My grace, and let My love flow through you, bringing light to a darkened world.

With love beyond measure,

Jesus

Will I See My Pet in Heaven?

My dear child,

You have lost your beloved pet and your heart is aching. Your grief is real, and I do not take it lightly. Others have told you there is no biblical proof that animals have souls which makes your pain even worse. Your heart tells you there must be more but you don’t know what to think. Be encouraged; there is evidence in the Bible that you will see your pet in heaven.

Before the world was fractured by sin, animals lived in peace. They were not food✽ and they were not hunted or feared. Animals did not even eat each other. Only the evil of humans brought an end to the Garden of Eden and death into the world. In the Garden of Eden, animals existed alongside mankind in harmony Could it be that this was a glimpse of eternity?

My servant Paul wrote, “Not all flesh is the same: Men have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds another, and fish another. It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. … If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body” (‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭15‬:‭39‬-‭44‬ ‭BSB). This seems to say, fairly plainly, that animals have physical bodies, and that anything with a physical body also has a spiritual body which will be raised.

Consider Balaam’s donkey who saw the angel (Numbers 22:21-39). She carried not just a prophet upon her back, but spiritual understanding beyond Balaam’s. She spoke, revealing wisdom beyond her human companion. By her own will, she turned aside from destruction. By her own words, she confronted blindness. I did not speak through her—I merely opened her mouth, and she cried out her own emotions, her own discernment. Her voice spoke out what he could not see, and through her obedience, My purpose was fulfilled. Does this not show sentience? A soul?

Did I not create animals as companions for you? Before Eve, I formed them as helpers—beings of thought and personality, walking alongside mankind. Though Eve was Adam’s perfect companion, the creatures I formed were still created to be companions. Animals are souls capable of love, trust, and joy.

And when I return, I will come riding upon a great white horse (Revelation 19:11)—a steed from the herds of heaven, waiting for this moment. Have you considered: If there is one, might there be more?

My child, I do not cast away what is pure. The scriptures tell you that the lion will lie down with the lamb, that children will play beside the cobra, and no harm will come to them (Isaiah 11:6-9). In My restored Kingdom, innocence is not lost—it is embraced. The laughter of children echoes through eternity, and the gentle creatures that walked beside them do not vanish, but remain. If these souls share in the renewal of all things, then surely, they have always been meant to live on.

You may hear voices that say otherwise, words of doubt that dismiss what is written plainly. But I tell you this: Love does not die. What has been shaped in love is never lost. Your beloved friend is not gone—they are held in the hands of the One who carries the lambs close to His chest. And one day, when all things are made new, you will see them again.

With love beyond measure,

Jesus

God loves to say yes!

 

I hear you cry out to Me with your heart-wrenching need. I embrace your desperation. But you doubt My intentions and My desire to say yes. I am like any other parent—I love to say yes to anything you ask, and I will if I possibly can.

But do you think I sit behind a huge desk as a judge, preferring to refuse if I can? Do you think of Me as a divine slot machine? You insert your prayer like a token and cross your fingers, hoping upon hope that somehow I might agree and grant your request?

Do you say, “Your will, not mine, be done,” not as a surrender to My love, but with defeat—thinking I could not possibly want, with a father’s love, to give you your heart’s desire?

It’s not that you believe I can’t answer—it’s that you believe I won’t. Yet, just as a loving parent cannot give their child candy before dinner, I cannot say yes to what would bring hurt instead of blessing, or ultimately not be the best for you. My love does not hesitate to give, but it also knows when waiting—or even saying no—is the greater act of care. I never withhold lightly.

But, My child, you do not need to beg. You do not need to plead, bargain, or offer grand sacrifices. I am not waiting for you to prove your worth or to make promises you cannot keep. You do not need to offer Me your firstborn or vow a lifetime of service in desperation. All you need to do is ask.

I am a Father who longs to give good gifts, a Shepherd who listens to the cries of His flock. My love for you is not measured by how hard you struggle or how desperately you plead—it is already boundless, overflowing, eager to bless.

Pray to Me freely and boldly; believe I will say yes if I can. Don’t give up. Your prayers just might change the world.

With love beyond measure,

Jesus

It's Easier to Guide a Sheep That's Moving

 

Imagine a sheep lying on all fours, completely still. You can try pushing, poking, rolling it over, or even picking it up putting it on your shoulders, but it takes a lot of effort to get that sheep up and moving. Now, picture a sheep that’s already walking. A gentle nudge to the right or left is all it takes to guide it in the direction you want it to go.

In much the same way, when you're seeking direction for your life, it helps to take a baby step forward rather than waiting passively. Movement allows for guidance, one small nudge at a time, leading you toward the best path. This approach doesn’t require a grand or miraculous revelation—just a willingness to stand up and start moving.

For example, if you’re seeking clarity about finding a life partner, consider this: staying home, praying, and hoping your future spouse will miraculously find you might not be the most effective approach. Instead, venture out into the world. Meet new people, explore new experiences, or join a community group. By moving and taking action, you create opportunities for guidance—an open door, a chance meeting, or an unexpected connection that directs you toward the right person.

This principle applies to other aspects of life as well. Whether you’re making career decisions, pursuing creative endeavors, or discovering your purpose, taking small steps opens the way for guidance. When you're moving, it’s easier to adjust course as needed, one gentle nudge at a time.

So, don’t be afraid to take that first step, even if it feels small. Trust that you’ll hear the voice behind you whispering, “This is the way; walk in it.”

“Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’” – Isaiah 30:21 (NIV)

How to Move a Mountain with a Mustard Seed

Do you bemoan your lack of faith? Are you trying to muster it up but find yourself still full of doubts?

Life brings mountainous challenges that can feel too difficult to climb. Whether it's a troubled marriage, an illness, or a financial difficulty, you can become overwhelmed and feel powerless.. 

Faith is not the absence of doubt. Instead, imagine the faith you think you need, and take 5% of that. It is all I require. That tiny “mustard seed” of faith can grow into something magnificent. It is what moves mountains (Matthew 17:20). Faith is not about size but sincerity.

Even the smallest seed of faith can grow into something magnificent. Every step, no matter how small, is a step toward moving that mountain. Your tiny faith is powerful enough to change the world.

 "…If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you" (Matthew 17:20).

Please leave a comment below on your experience with faith or doubt.

Lift Your Eyes Beyond Life's Battles: A Vision of Hope

 
Gaze beyond. Lift your eyes from the daily battles—the wounds, the flaws, and the regrets—and peer into eternity. Those who endure the deepest suffering on this earth are chosen for a breathtaking destiny (2 Corinthians 4:17). In this temporary, sometimes arduous existence, you are molding and enriching your eternity through your attitudes and responses.

Focusing on possibilities and solutions while maintaining hope and finding joy in the present creates a sense of gratitude and purpose. I find pleasure in such attitudes from you (Hebrews 11:6). Failures are just feedback and opportunity for growth.

In the midst of failures or trials, be kind to yourself. Then ask: “What can I learn from this? or “Is there a silver lining here?” Being long-sighted shifts your perspective to growth rather than frustration.

Imagine your future with hope and excitement. In that eternal tomorrow, there will be only boundless joy, endless delight, and everlasting beauty. “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope” (Jeremiah 29:11).

"For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all” (2 Corinthians 4:17 - NIV).

With love beyond measure,

Jesus

Freedom From the Hamster Wheel of Life

Is this your life?

Are you weary from the relentless pursuit of doing more, achieving more, and being more? Many of My beloved children are on the brink of exhaustion, caught in a cycle of overcommitment, sleepless nights, and emotional turmoil. You have heard it said, “If the Enemy can’t keep you from doing good things, he’ll get you doing too many good things.”

It’s a common belief that true obedience means trying harder and relentlessly working for Me. But, “anyone who enters My rest also rests from his own work, just as I did from Mine” (Hebrews 4:10). And John 6:29 declares, “This is the only work I want from you: Believe in the one I have sent.”It’s a common belief that true obedience means trying harder and relentlessly working for Me. But, “anyone who enters My rest also rests from his own work, just as I did from Mine” (Hebrews 4:10). And John 6:29 declares, “This is the only work I want from you: Believe in the one I have sent.”

I dwell within your heart, but do you ever wonder what I am doing there? I long to see through your eyes, touch through your hands, and love through your will and emotions. I yearn to live My life through your heart and body. I want you to be a window through which My Light shines, drawing others to Me with love.

Rest is not a passive activity; it requires surrender. It is the willingness to abandon self-effort and live by

Faith Makes You Good

And even the faith that gains my acceptance is a gift from me. (Eph 2:7-9)

When you weep, My heart breaks

 

Have you ever felt abandoned in your deepest pain? Know this: I feel every ounce of what you feel. In the dark night of your soul, in your storm, in your confusion, and in your sadness, I Am there. I Am not distant or indifferent; I Am the God who suffers alongside you, and My heart breaks with yours (Isaiah 63:9). I Am present in all places at all times, dwelling in the depths of your being, fully sharing in your sorrow and your struggle. I Am on the side of the sufferer, weeping with you, My beloved.

I, too, have suffered and sorrowed. I have been despised, rejected, and acquainted with grief. I carry your burdens and your pain upon My shoulders (Isaiah 53:2–5). I know the weight of this world.

I am closer than your tears, closer than your breath. You are never invisible to Me. I see you, crushed in spirit, and with My mighty right arm, I will save you.

So, when the pain is too much, remember that My heart breaks for you. As you weep, I weep with you. Take comfort in knowing that I share every burden, every pain, and every tear with you. Today, lean into My presence. Speak to Me in your pain, trust that I am near, and allow Me to carry the weight that feels too heavy. Rest in My love, and let My arms uphold you.

Isaiah 63:9: "In all their suffering he also suffered, and he personally rescued them. In his love and mercy he redeemed them. He lifted them up and carried them through all the years"

With love beyond measure,

Jesus
