Jesus Christ is the same…

Gown of Glory

When I asked the Lord what he wanted for his birthday, he led me into a vision and this is what was revealed to me: While praying I received a vision and saw Jesus knitting and securing a covering for his bride as a whole, and then I saw him tending to her on an…

Your desire to know and reflect My ways fills Me with joy. You are blessed, for your heart thirsts for righteousness, and I…

The Depths of His Love in Autumn

The heavens declare His steadfast love, The earth proclaims His grace above. As autumn falls in golden light, His Word endures, both day and night. “The Lord is good,” the psalmist sings, “His mercy flows, unending springs.” The leaves that fall, the seasons fade, Yet in His love, my hope is laid. “Be still,” He…

Hearts Knit by the Hand of God

During worship I saw the beautiful, mighty and large hand of God, knitting my heart to the heart of my future husband, who was far from me in physical distance.

If you’ve struggled with the insecurities produced by rejection, this is a word for you.

Nearly six years ago my big brother was murdered on 10/10/2018. At the time I knew of Jesus but I did not know him personally but my journey to God had grown more significantly a year prior to my brother passing. Nearly three years ago my beloved brother handed me a gold watch like this…

Prayer for more of Jesus

Dear Jesus, My Beloved King, you are all together lovely. None compare to you. None have loved me like you. None have died for me like you. None have come running for me like you. You give endlessly, yet I want more of you. I am content and satisfied, yet somehow I am hungry and…

My precious beloved child, you are not waiting to be chosen. You have already been chosen. I have chosen you, not for a little while, not for a season, or even a lifetime, but for all of eternity! You are never waiting, though it may feel that way at times, you are being prepared, day…

Jesus speaks on Obedience

My dearest one, you are not blessed because you obey, and so reward comes forth, but rather obedience produces opportunities for blessings to arise.

The Jelly Donut Revelation

Journal entry 9/4/22 After serving at kids church, I grabbed one of the powdered donuts provided for volunteers, confident that it was filled with jelly.

The Fire of Love

“Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm, for love is strong as death, jealousy is fierce as the grave. Its flashes are flashes of fire, the very flame of the Lord. Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man offered for love all…

The Traveling Bible

The Traveling Bible: God has been calling me and leading me out of my usual routine. Yesterday he told me to go to Balboa Park. I got in my car and he told me to go back inside and grab my Bible. I figured he must want me to read some scriptures while at the…

Believe in Yourself

Dearest one, it need not always be glamorous to be worthwhile. It need not move fast. You can take your time. You can work at your own pace. But dear, please be consistent. Show up every day and put in the work. Believe in yourself but also believe in the divine powers and thousands of…

A Time to Flourish

The seeds have been planted. The intentions have been sown. Take care dear…see that you nurture and feed your mind, body and spirit. Let the sun shine upon your face. Let the wind play with your hair. Let the earth feel strong and firm beneath your feet. And rise up my dear. Bloom where you…

Crossroads

Two paths lay ahead of you. One easy, one true. What say you my dear? Whatever shall you do?

Miracles in the Making

There was this place, where the summer heat was unbearable. I wished for shade, for protection from the heat. Unbeknownst to me, a tiny seed flew down from the heavens and buried itself in the soil. It took root and sprouted in the shadows behind a fence. All alone, it grew and grew. What seemed…

Speed Bumps

Every once in a while, you’ll hit a speed bump along your journey. It might throw you off balance. It might kick you to the sidelines for a bit. It might cause you to pause, reflect, feel some kind of way… But darling don’t let that speed bump distract you for too long because you’re…

A New Path

You’re striding along your path, happy as can be. Smiling at the world, buzzing like a bee. You couldn’t have seen it coming, oh dear, but there it was. You suddenly fell into a hole, and spent much time wondering what it was. Why me? How did this happen? After much too much time asking…

Your Presence is Requested

What once was, is no longer so. The past can be revisited for a short while, but darling do not get lost there. Let it rest. What could be, is not yet. The future may be an exciting place to visit, but do not stay there for long, for you will surely miss the present…

Sail As You Please

This journey you’re on began long ago. Sometimes you move fast, sometimes you move slow. Little by little, day by day, each step you take goes a long way. Lay down your sword, stop fighting against life. Go with the flow and everything will be alright. Things may get bumpy and that’s okay. If you…

What The World Needs

In this world, there is only one you. Despite any doubts, your purpose is true. As every puzzle piece has it’s place, you do too. Simply being yourself is of tremendous value. So don’t be pushed into being someone you’re not. Because the world needs the true you, a whole lot.

Waking Up To Magic

Waking up, eyelids slowing peeling apart, still feeling heavy, they resist. I clumsily grasp for my phone to check the time. 5:55 am. Just go back to sleep, you didn’t sleep all that well, and it would feel so good to sleep in today. Come on, you earned it, you’ve been up at 6 am…

One of the most sincere forms of respect is actually listening to what another has to say. Growing up in a large middle eastern family I learned that I had to speak up if I wanted to be heard, or I may never get a chance. You may be listening to what others are saying,…
