                         Stop Long Enough To Hear


My Child,

I've been waiting for you to stop long enough to hear what I have to say. 
I long to communicate with you at a deeper level than ever before. But you 
need to come to Me and sit in My presence to hear My voice. I speak softly. 
I will not shout for your attention. I will not compete with all the other 
noises. I am speaking to you.

First, My love for you is far greater than you realize. The enemy has tried 
to keep you blinded to the depth and breadth and height of My great love for 
you.  Believe My love for you. Believe that My Word is true. Come and sit 
in My presence and allow Me to lovingly talk to you. I want a Father-child 
chat with you. There are things I want to guide you into. There are things 
I want to correct. Listen closely to My voice and Mine alone.

Allow Me to guide in all things. Do not try to make things happen, no 
matter how frustrated you feel over the seeming lack of any activity. I am 
working behind the scenes accomplishing what you could never accomplish. 
Trust Me as never before. Become flexible. Let Me guide you, be prepared, 
be ready to move quickly without lengthy explanations.

A new wave is coming and you need to be in position to catch it and ride 
the crest of the wave and go where it takes you. Be prepared. Don't be 
left on the shore wondering what happened and longing for what you missed. 
Take your place.  Take your position. You will hear My voice directing you 
as you maneuver into the place I have called you to take.

Listen for My voice as you sit in My presence. And know that as you come 
into and wait in My glorious presence that you will be changed. My presence 
is light.  And My light exposes everything. Just as standing before a 
mirror when you undress for your bath you see yourself as you are, standing 
in the Light of My presence you will see yourself as you really are. You 
stand before Me naked.  Nothing is hidden. You will see whatever is not 
of Me. You will see the smallest thing that needs to be laid down or cast 
aside. Come into My presence and be cleansed, be changed, be prepared for 
the next wave. Listen, and look closely at what I am showing you.
