Learn To Love: Seeing Through God’s EyesSample

Run Hard Now

It’s time to awake now, while I care for you, while I hold you and let you love. Awake, this day. Give thanks for what has been forgotten, for people I bring around you, for this unfolding day, for all the unknowns, for the possibilities. What do you hope is possible? What do you want to ask Me now?

There is no separation between us, now. The curtain has been torn and I am here, leaning in. Your freedom and new day comes from living in My love. Know you are loved and respond to My love and My love pours out to everyone you see today. When you let nothing separate us, when you hand over the sin that can’t separate us unless you let it, you are free. And all the desires of loving others well, being present and sacrificing and surrendering and thinking of others more than yourself comes naturally. Love is who you are when I am chosen and all separation with Me is handed over.

Hand yourself over, My daughter.

Jesus had the choice, to be handed over or not. He took all sin, but I didn’t force him. It is impossible for him to not do My will when his life is one with Me. You are capable of anything, and your life is full of possibility and joy and hope when you trust Me more than yourself, when you allow My strength to be your strength, when your weaknesses are no longer weaknesses but strengths, too.

I call you to awake and to go deeper still, in your trust of Me. I call you to live in the safe place of My love so you can go out and love others well. There are so many who don’t know this hope you have, and I ask you to awake and sing loud the life I give you. You are the blessing. You are the one I chose to love and bless and carry forth the hope within you so others may hope and respond to My love by being blessed by the love I give you.

Remember, nothing stands between us, love. Be firm in your pursuit of Me. To awake means to fight hard the battle I’ve given you to fight—and remember, you do it for the sake of the ones I know are lost. I have found you. You are found. So, now awake; get going. Run hard for the ones I show you to love.

I show you how to love. I show you what it means to live awake.
