Never Alone: Feeling God’s Presence in the QuietSample
In the Waiting
There is a still, quiet place, a dark place where light shines through cracks until it is full on your face. I want you to go there. I want you to go by yourself, where no one else is, and I want you to practice waiting on Me.
Waiting on Me is not a place of being alone—really. For I am always with you. Waiting on Me yields alignment with Me. It produces greater trust in my will, with believing it is okay for you to not see what is ahead so clearly. You know that I see, and you trust that it is okay for you to trust my sight, my heart, more than you trust yourself.
Cast aside the things that weigh you down, and I will give you a new heart, a new spirit. Cast aside the focus on needing to know the future and all it may bring, and I will show you more of my face, this moment. And you will hear my voice, ever more clearly.
My daughter, be careful of this world, so full of information and attempts to figure out all that humans don’t understand. . . Don’t worry now. Don’t think of what you don’t know. Think on whom you know, whom you trust, whom to run to with your questions and your worries and your plans for the future.
Yes, plan for the future. Yes, think on the things that will allow you to practice being with Me, becoming more accustomed to my presence with you. For with your life you are called to practice worshipping Me, with all that you do. Your heart transformation, the new spirit I give you, occurs only through Me. Transformation happens through Me when you seek Me and you know that my plans, even though you don’t know all that they are, are good: good plans for your heart and for your future.

About this Plan
It can be so easy to doubt and to fear, especially in a world that often encourages us to rely on ourselves, not on something as "out there" as faith. It can be easy to wonder if we'll ever find our way back to God. This plan invites you to acknowledge what's hard in this season while helping you create space to once again draw close your good Father.
