The Great Invitation

 

My one, it’s in the resting that you will feel and experience My love.

 

It’s in the coming and being with Me that you will feel Me

and become filled with My truth and strength.

It’s here, IN Me that you will be saturated with My heart, My ways, and My desires.

 

Being/Living/Residing IN Me is the only solid place that you have…

that anyone has…

because everything else can move/shift based on circumstances.

 

I am immovable, unchanging, always faithful, and never wavering.

I am your source of security.

I am your steadfast place.

I am steadfastness.

 

So come, my beloved.

Come and be.

Be… regardless of how you feel.

Come…

in your loss.

in your sadness.

in your questions.

in your insecurity.

Come and let Me BE in you.

 

It is here that you will experience Me because I am in it all.

I am not hiding from the things you’re going through and don’t like.

I don’t turn away from you when you are sad or struggling.

 

No. The opposite is true.

When you are trying to figure things out, trying to find your way, or grieving a loss,

            I am there.

Your questions, sadness, loss, and uncertainty are an invitation to come.

            I am waiting for you.

 

Sometimes these are the things,

 that make you restless, and unsettled enough to seek Me, looking for more.

 

These things are invitations to draw you in.

They are designed to beckon you forward. Into Me.

Don’t despise them.

Don’t ignore them.

 

And please, do not try to cover/hide them.

If you bury them, they will spring up like sprouts and spread.

They will grow and begin to take over your life.

 

And if they do, the enemy­—satan—will offer you another option.

He will offer you a temporary fix, a pleasure that will turn into an addiction.

And if you take it, he has free reign to bind you.

 

If you choose his immediate gratification to try to feel better outside of coming to Me,

you will be bound.

 

So now that you see the 2 options you have, I invite you to make a choice.

 

1)    You can come to Me—regardless of what is going on—

            and let Me BE with you in it.

2)    Or, you can resist what you’re feeling and choose a distraction to try to fill you.

 

… But know that the 2nd choice, by default, turns you away from Me.
