You are hurting inside, dear one. Although you try to hide it, I sense it. Not many others know about how you feel, but the One Who loves you, does.
I know when you get frightened in the middle of the night, when you feel all alone in the middle of a crowd. I know when you face what seems to be unconquerable odds, either with your health, or your finances, or a personal relationship that is very important to you.
You carry so much of the burden in your being. Come and lay it at My altar. My altar is covered with complete perfect love, forgiveness, and strength. You have access to it at any time. What once seemed impossible is now possible with Me at your side.
I am asking you to open up your heart and your soul to receive My presence. This healing touch is vital to your overall health and happiness. Only by truly laying your pains and burdens down can you experience true peace.
Search your heart today.
“You have searched me, Lord, and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you, Lord, know it completely.
Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.”
Psalm 139:1-4, 23-24 NIV
As you get older your fears become more of a reality. Knowing that time passes so quickly you have not accomplished your family goals. Siblings who do not speak to each other, children with personal, emotional and financial problems. Grandchildren who live afar you only see once or twice a year. You pray for a change the change never happens, you doubt your ability to succeed. There are times when you think God isn’t listening or to busy for you. Then you read Morning Meditations that puts you back with a gleaming light of hope. I thank you Alyse for giving of yourself and helping others. God could of not picked a more perfect messenger.
