Awareness!

Good morning, Papa God!

The question was asked recently, “Are you obsessed by something?” My initial response was “no.” But, then this thought came to the forefront of my mind. The total being of my life, inside and out, should be one which is absolutely obsessed by Your Presence, Papa God. I am to “live and move and have my being” in You, to have an abiding awareness of You continually. The truth is this: if I am obsessed by You, nothing else can get into my life and have a negative effect on me - no concerns, no worries, no tribulations. Why? Because Your Presence is my refuge and protection, therefore, nothing can break through and disrupt my peace and the inner wellbeing of my soul. So, I am determined each day to be obsessed by Your Presence. There is more of a need to see a change within me, to be more like Jesus and have a deeper knowledge of Him than it is for me to see results in my service to You.

Good morning, My child!

I am with you always! You have My Word on this! It is this awareness of My continual Presence that you are so diligently learning of, becoming increasingly conscious of, and acquainted with day by day. This is real joy, My child!  Joy begins by knowing Me and practicing living in My Presence all day, placing your confidence in Me. When you learn to do this, you will learn to joy in the midst of all circumstances, to lay hold of contentment, no matter what your circumstances may be. Why? Because joy is the fruit of exercising confidence in Me. Let go, relax, be still, and know (believe to your depths) that I am God!
