Celebrating Advent: Embrace Jesus in This SeasonНамуна

Rebirth

You say you like to remember, imagine, the day that I came to earth. The beauty. The miracle. But don’t get so caught up in looking back that you don’t see what is before you now: this moment, too. For still, here is where I am. Here is where I stay with you.

You await Me. You look for Me. You call out to Me and count the ways you need Me, marking them on your calendar. But be sure to register the passing of days with joy and with gratitude: I have come to you, and I am coming again. I am with you now, yet there is more of Me for you to receive. I want you to see the birth—the birth of this something new.

So wait and don’t wait. Receive Me now, and expect Me even more. I bring restoration to your heart—restoration to the world listless and confused. But you, daughter, don’t have to be empty—without hope, distracted and overwhelmed. You don’t have to be pulled this way and that, trying to please a world that struggles to understand. I help you understand. Remember that I create unity within your home, your heart. It is my heart within you that brings peace.

You call this season “busy” and “full.” There is much pomp and circumstance. There is much glitter and noise. There is so much noise. That is okay. Be wary of the distractions that pull you away from Me; but do not be afraid. I can pull you right back. Be careful of weariness, choosing activity that makes you feel you are worshipping Me when you are not. Watch how this world tells you what worship looks like. There are not many things you need to do to adequately celebrate my Son’s birth.

Was is it you need to do? What is the right way to celebrate, to rejoice? It begins with wisdom. It means knowing not just whom has come to save you, but why it is you need to be saved. You see . . . you, without my Son, are separated from Me. You are torn from Me—your own self pulled away from Me. . . And my Son brings you back. He restores in you what is true.

This is why my Son, the birth of everything good, the birth of hope upon the earth, is the beginning of you. He is the unifier of souls who have been displaced from Me. He brings together what has been taken from Me by sin. He heals what has been broken. He joins what has been severed. And your heart can be connected once more, with mine—if you want it to be.

Do you want it to be?

Ask Me how you have been broken. Ask Me to show you how you have gone away from Me. For then, I will bring healing. Then, I, and My Son—together— will bring you back.

That, too, is something to celebrate. Don’t you agree?

Remember, the birth you celebrate in this season is the birth of you too. Your life is birthed from the shoot from the branch of Jesse, rebirth from a stump not forgotten, not un-tended. It is your heart that I pursue, that I nourish, that I protect and guide. From here, your true self is brought forth. Do you want Me to bring it forth? Come, daughter. Come.
