COME TO ME, and rest in My Presence. I am constantly thinking about you, and I want you to become increasingly mindful of Me. Awareness of My Presence can give you rest even when you are quite busy. An inner peacefulness flows out of knowing I am with you always. This knowledge of Me permeates your heart, mind, and spirit--and it can fill you with deep Joy.

Many of My followers are so focus on the problems they see and the predictions they hear that they lose their Joy. It becomes buried under multiple layers of worry and fear. When you realize this happened in your life, bring all your concerns to Me. Talk with Me about each one, seeking My help and guidance. Ask Me to remove the anxious layers that have buried your Joy. As you entrust your concerns into My care and keeping, your Joy will begin to emerge again. Nurture this gladness by speaking or singing praises to Me--the King of Glory who loves you eternally.

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Matthew 11:28

How precious it is, Lord, to realize that you are thinking about me constantly! I can’t even count how many times a day your thoughts turn toward me. And when I waken in the morning, you are still thinking of me!

Psalm 139:17 (TLB)

And teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.

Matthew 28:20

Lift up your heads, O you gates!
And be lifted up, you everlasting doors!
And the King of glory shall come in.

Psalm 24:7 (NKJV)
