God's Rush to Give
Silence. Be silent before Me. Seek to know, and then to do My Will in all things.
Abide in My love. An atmosphere of loving understanding to all men. This is your part to carry out, and then I surround you with a protective screen that keeps all evil from you. It is fashioned by your own attitude of mind, words, and deeds, towards others.
I want to give you all things, good measure, pressed down and running over. Be quick to learn. You know little yet of the divine impatience which longs to rush to give. Does one worrying thought enter your mind, one impatient thought? Fight it at once.
Love and trust are the solvents for the worry and cares an frets of a life. Apply them at once. You are channels and though the channel may not be altogether blocked, fret and impatience and worry corrode, and in time would become beyond your help.
Persevere. Persevere. Never lose heart. All is well.

Friend in DrudgeryIt is the daily strivings that count, not the momentary heights. The obeying of My Will day in, day out, in the wilderness plains, rather than the occasional mount of transfiguration.Perseverance is nowhere needed so much as in the religious life. I am the Lord of little things, the divine control of little happenings.Nothing in the day is too small to be a part of My scheme. The little stones in a mosaic play a big part.Joy in Me. Joy is the God-given cement that secures th... Continue reading...

Relax
Relax, do not get tense, have no fear. All is for the best. How can you fear change when your life is hid with Me in God, who changeth not and I am the same yesterday, today and forever.You must learn poise, soul-balance and poise, in a vacillating, changing world.Claim My power. The same power with which I cast out devils is your today. Use it. If not, I withdraw it. Use it ceaselessly.You cannot ask too much. Never think you are too busy. As long as you get back to Me and replenish aft... Continue reading...

Mighty and Marvelous Glad indeed are the souls with whom I walk. Walking with Me is security. The coming of My Spirit into a life, and its working are imperceptible, but the result is mighty.
Learn of Me. Kill the self, Every blow to self is used to shape the real, eternal, imperishable you.
Be very candid and rigorous with yourselves. "Did self prompt that?" and if it did, oust it at all costs.
When I died on the Cross, I died embodying all the human self. Once that was crucified, I could conque... Continue reading...

Friends Unseen Never despair, never despond. Be just a channel of helpfulness for others.Have more sympathy. Feel more tenderness towards others. Your lives shall not be all care. Gold does not stay in the crucible-only until it is refined. Already I hear the music and the marching of the unseen host, rejoicing at your victory.No follower of Mine would ever err or fall, if once the veil were withdrawn which prevents him seeing how these slips delight the evil spirits, and the pain and disappo...

Thanks for TrialsYou must say "thank you" for everything, even seeming trails and worries. Joy is the whole being's attitude of "thank you" to Me. Be glad. Rejoice. A father loves to see his children happy.I am revealing so much to you. Pass it on. Each truth is a jewel. Some poor spirit impoverished friend will be glad of it. Drop one here and there.Seek to find a heart-home for each truth I have imparted on you. More truths will flow in. Use all I give you. Help others. I ache to find a way... Continue reading...

The Ache of LoveCry unto Me, and I will hear you and bless you. Use My unlimited stores for your needs and those of others. Seek My wonderful truths and you shall find.There may come times when you sit in silence, when it seems as if you were left alone. Then, I command you to remember I have spoken to you, as I spoke at Emmaus. But there was the time in the Upper Room, after My Ascension, when My disciples had to comfort themselves by saying, “Did He not speak to us by the way?”
You wil... Continue reading...

Influence
When you come to Me, and I give you that Eternal Life I give to all who believe in Me, it alters your whole existence, the words you speak, the influences you have.
These are all eternal. They must be. They spring from the life within you, My Life, Eternal Life, so that they too live forever. Now, you see how vast, how stupendous, is the work of any soul that has Eternal life. The words, the influence, go on down over the ages forever.
You must ponder on these truths I give you. The... Continue reading...

No Strain
No Calm, no matter what may befall you. Rest in Me. Be patient, and let patience have her perfect work. Never think things overwhelming. How can you be overwhelmed when I am with you?
Do not feel the strain of life. There is no strain for my children. Do you not see I am a master instrument maker? Haven I not fashioned each part? Do I not know just what it can bear without strain? Would I, the maker of so delicate an instrument, ask of it anything that could destroy or strain?
No! The ... Continue reading...

Love Bangs the Door
Life with Me is no immunity from difficulties, but peace in difficulties. My guidance is often by shut doors. Love bangs as well as opens.
Joy is the result of faithful trusting acceptance of My Will, when It seems not joyous.
St. Paul, my servant, learned this lesson of the banged doors when he said "our light affliction which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory". Expect rebuffs until this is learned-it is the only way.
Joy is... Continue reading...
