I am going to be transparent and give my readers an inside glimpse of one of my entries in my two-way journaling pages from yesterday.  I often find that when I record my prayers and praises to God that He so lovingly and faithfully responds IF I am courteous and patient enough to sit still and wait and give Him time to respond!

Father God, I thank You for Your loving kindness and faithfulness to me. I thank You for Your precious Holy Spirit because without His help I am nothing and can do nothing. Oh, how I need You every breath and every step of my journey.

I do not want to do anything that would separate me from Your presence. When I sin and fall short and when I stumble, I confess my sin and You are faithful and just to forgive me my sin and cleanse me of all unrighteousness (I John 1:9).

 This song keeps playing over and over in my mind. These words resonate with my heart, “I love, I love…I love your presence”. It’ so true. The more I am with you… the deeper you take me!

Thank You for guiding me by Your Holy Spirit step by step. Thank You for Your divine connections. Thank You for making me aware of certain opportunities You want me to take. Thank You for instructing me day by day. Thank You for sticking to me closer than a brother.

Thank You for delivering me from the bondage of strongholds in my past. They have held me down and kept me from flying. Thank You, Master, for opening the eyes of my understanding to know and receive the truth: I AM FREE IN CHRIST!

Thank You for the amazing plan You have for my life. Help me number my days and complete the race so it will bring honor and glory to You and usher others into the marvelous light of Your dear Son, Jesus. THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE, ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN.

Thank You for loving me so completely and from saving me from myself, the world, and from ultimate destruction and separation from You.

“I love, I love… I love your presence”!

This is what God spoke back to me.

I sing those words back to you!

“I love, I love… I love your presence”!

I am hungry too for the presence of My creation. I designed My people for relationship. It’s a two way street. It’s based on My love. It’s a continual flow of blessings – of giving and receiving. Both are necessary to keep the flow going.

It is My good pleasure to bless all people and demonstrate My love to them. I am “LOVE” and oh, how it breaks My heart when My beloved creation does not truly see Me for who I am. When that happens I can show them who they truly are. They are made in My image and likeness.

In My presence is fullness of joy. In My presence you will find Jesus, the Prince of Peace. In My presence you will find ALL provision and everything you could possibly want  or need in this life and the life to come. That’s how great I am. My love encompasses all.

This world would be absolutely transformed if people got  a firm hold on the TRUTH OF WHO I AM AND HOW GREAT MY LOVE IS FOR EVERY SINGLE BEING WHO IS A PART OF ME! HOW COULD I NOT LOVE THEM. I made them and I have a marvelous plan for each life.

KNOW ME INTIMATELY AND YOU WILL BE TRANSFORMED! Step into My presence and enter the realm of My glory. YOU CANNOT STAY THE SAME IN MY PRESENCE! It’s a good thing because I am great and I am good and I love you… every single one.

My prayer for you

Abba Father, I know it would  please your heart if every one of your creation  truly heard you singing over them – ‘I love, I love… I love your presence so they would respond from their heart back to you – “I love, I love… I love your presence. May it be so, in Jesus name. Amen.
