Refuge, Rest, and Refreshing

Nations may have moved away from God through sinful choices and actions, but in spite of what the masses do....there is always a place that remains for the people of God. In the face of so much political chaos and uncertainty swirling in the face of God's people....He faithfully calls out to us softly and tenderly....

"COME HOME! Come Home. You who are weary and fearful....Come Home to Me....it is your place of REFUGE, of REST, of REFRESHING!

"Amid the many voices that call upon you day and night, hear Mine above all the rest; for I wait for you, day and night, to lovingly respond to the sound of My Voice calling to YOU! I never tire of drawing you unto Myself. I long to gather you under My wings. Do not be as the religious who draw near to Me with their lips, but not with their hearts. Open, open your heart afresh to Me this day. Be still. Yes, be still and KNOW that I am God. I am your God, and I love you with an everlasting love.

"I call you to respond to Me in spirit and in truth. You are greatly loved and highly favored, O child of God. Your willing response opens wide a door of communion that I long for with you. I watch your heart for responses. Is it willing to reciprocate to My drawing? Is it willing to find the time in the crowded schedule of your busy days?

"Return to My arms of healing and of safety, of strengthening and of provision, of wisdom and of insight. There is no place for you like this place of My presence; for it is only here that I heal, I equip, I strengthen, I reveal, I provide everything...everything that you need to live and serve in the place I have called and appointed you. Come unto Me again and again. Continue to learn of Me, and I will give you the rest that you need. I will provide all that you need to complete your course and order your steps giving strength to finish your assignment well.

"When you enter My Heavenly gates, I want to see you enter in with hearts afire having been much with Me. Enter as those who walked with Me on the road to Emmaus saying, "Did not our hearts BURN within us while He talked with us on the road and while He opened the scriptures to us?"

"I want to open the scriptures to you as you daily, sit at My feet. I want you to hear My Word. Come take the spot reserved just for you...here with Me. That is your place of rest. It is found no other place. I am waiting....and watching. My Arms are open for you. Come Home. Return, daily, to My Arms of Refuge, Rest, and Refreshing!

"Melt into My warm Arms.....and enjoy the wonder fo being received!!!!"
