Psalms 38:1-40:17

What God said to me – Life is fleeting . . . it passes by in just a moment.  Never forget your days are numbered, not just yours, but the world’s.  Time is counting down so don’t waste it.  Focus on the eternal.  Live for what is lasting, for what is important.  Look to Me in all things for I will show you where your focus needs to be.  Don’t hide the truths I’ve taught you, share them.  Sprinkle My word throughout your conversation.  Speak of your salvation.  Speak of My faithfulness.  Don’t conceal My love but share it.  I direct those to you who need to hear the things I’ve taught you, the things I’ve brought you through.  Walk with Me out loud – others will hear and be encouraged.

Psalms 35:1-37:40

What God said to me – Take refuge in Me for “I AM” your deliverer.  Run to Me when you are upset or troubled or in a difficult situation and I will shelter you and give you peace.  When you are hidden in Me, “I AM” a stronghold that no evil can break through.  You are always safe with Me.  However, My desire is not just to be your refuge in times of trouble, but always.  I delight in you and I long for you to come to Me with all things . . . the good things . . . the happy times . . .the questions you have.  Come to Me often.  Nestle into My arms and tell Me what’s going on – not so I know (for I already know everything about you), but so you can delight in Me as I delight in you.  For its when you learn to delight in Me always that the desires of My heart become the desires of your heart.

Psalms 33:1-34:22

What God said to me – My eyes are always on you for you are My child.  “I AM” always here to guide you, to protect you and teach you.  Like a parent gripping the hand of his toddler so he won’t stumble or fall, I have hold of you.  Not My hand in yours, but yours in Mine and I won’t let go so that if you stumble, I can set you aright again.  Rejoice in that always – you are Mine!  My plans for you are firm and I will guide you each step.  I always see you.  I always hear you.  Don’t be afraid no matter what you encounter.  If you cry out to Me and the difficulty doesn’t disappear, look up to Me, squeeze My hand and say “Okay Father, now what?”  I promise I will show you the way through.  I will never leave you.  Nothing is too difficult for Me for “I AM”.
