Tossing and Turning

Published on 18 September 2023 at 06:27

Good morning, Papa God! 

I finally fell asleep last night after 2.5 hours of tossing and turning with my mind being bombarded with thought after thought. Thoughts that I could not seem to turn off. Then, I remembered Your word to me. “Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still.” So, I began to think on Your Word, and to say it over and over in my mind. That’s the last thing I remember doing. I fell asleep! Thank You for calming my mind with Your words to me. I am calm; I am at rest in You; I hear You … when I am still. No matter what happens or what my mind stops to think upon, my heart is steadfast and secure in You.

Ah, My restless child,

Being still and quiet in My Presence is the absolute best thing you can do. You do realize that we do not have to talk all the time, right? So often, quiet is good. When you are restless and your thoughts are flying everywhere just stop and be quiet. At those times, when you are in My Presence and I am not talking, it is to get you to be still and not talk, but to rest in Me. I am working within you at the deeper levels of your soul where human words cannot go. When I have something important to say to you, I will speak. If not, just be still and rest. Just sit there quietly, and let Me calm you and hold you. Let My Presence refresh your mind and heart. Being still is truly the most essential ingredient to the wellness of your soul. Remember this always! I designed you to have a close and intimate communication with Me. You are “wired” for this fellowship with Me. And, oh how I love our time together!

(Isa.26.3; Psa.46:10; Psa.46; Psa.37:7a; Psa.4:4; Isa.30:15)
