Embracing Joy In His Presence

DAY 3 OF 5

Led by Jesus

SEEK TO BECOME increasingly receptive and responsive to Me. I am always actively involved in your life. Instead of trying to force Me to do what you want, when you want it, relax and look for what I’m already doing. Live in a receptive mode—waiting for Me, trusting in My timing. I am good to those who wait hopefully and expectantly for Me. Ask Me to open your eyes to see all that I have for you. Such awareness helps you live responsively, ready to do My will.

My followers often fail to see the many blessings I shower on them. They’re so busy looking for other things that they miss what is before them—or is on the way. They forget I am sovereign God and the timing of events is My prerogative.

I want you to trust Me enough to let Me lead. When a couple is dancing, one of them leads and the other follows. Otherwise, there is confusion and awkwardness. Dance with Me, beloved. Follow My lead as I guide you gracefully through your life.
