I want you to start this day with joy, dear one.  With courage and joy.  Rise up with purpose for the mission I have given you.  Everything will unfold before you as you go.  Step by step.

Look into My face.  Do you see anything there that will cause you to doubt My presence and guidance?  You will find only love encouraging you to reach our goals together.

Perhaps that goal is as simple as getting through this day.  Don’t look away.  Keep your eyes focused on Me, the Author and Perfecter of your faith.  The love you see will fill every pore of your body, enveloping you with calm and peace amid the storm.

I will never leave you or forsake you.

So whether it is getting through today, or climbing great mountains to shout out My love through the valleys, I will be there to help and encourage you.

You are Mine and I am yours.

Now and forever more.
