Return and Catch Your Breath

As this morning begins, consider the direction of your heart. If you recognize that you are moving away from my will, turn back where you are. Sometimes stopping matters more than moving faster.

Come back to me and rest quietly. Release the thought that you must gather more outside strength before you can be safe, and trust your Father. You can ask me for strength even where you assumed you had to endure alone.

If you want to cling to your own methods instead of listening, tell me that, too. Acknowledge what needs changing and choose rightly today. Receive the strength that comes from quietly depending on me.
