Jesus Calling
Be Still in My Presence, even though countless tasks claim for your attention. nothing is as important as spending time with Me. While you wait in My Presence, I do My best work within you: transforming you by the renewing of your mind. If you skimp on this time with Me, you may plunge headlong into the wrong activities, missing the richness of what i have planned for you. Do not seek Me primarily for what I can give you. Remember that I, the Giver, am infinitely greater than any gift I may impart on you. Though I delight in blessing My children, I am deeply grieved when My blessings become idols in their hearts. Anything can be an idol if it distracts you from Me as your First Love. When I am the Ultimate Desire of your heart, you are safe from danger and idolatry. As you wait in My Presence, enjoy the Greatest gift of all, Christ in you, the hope of Glory! Romans 12:2, Revelation 2:4, Colossians 1:27
it's not about the bunny.
For a couple of years (at least) I've had the blessing of a bunny that frequently snuggles up under a small shrub outside of my bedroom window. To me, it has ALWAYS been a reminder of God's Love for me. I TRULY believe God presents himself in that form because he knows I often open that window shade to let the sun in in the mornings, or even just to peek outside to see what the weather IS doing.
Every time I see the bunny it makes my heart melt. It reminds me to Delight myself in the Lord, because all of His Ways TRULY are Good. He knows the deepest desires of my heart, he knows how much I need His Presence and reminders of His Presence. With that single act of kindness, he reminds me that even on my loneliest days, I am truly Never Alone.
Last night I had the most awe-striking dream.
I dreamt I was looking out the window of my childhood home, there was a bunny just outside of it lying on the rooftop of our porch. It was turned away from me, but i could tell it was struggling to stay alive, it was dying. I wasn't sure what to do, but of course I felt like i needed to try to save it, if i had any power to do so.
It found the strength to turn towards me and it saw that I was trying to figure out how I could help it. We both approached the window and I reached out my hand to see If i could feel it through the window screen. I felt it's forehead which turned into a mans forehead! Then He began to ASCEND into the sky and with an intense stare from His most Brilliant Blue eyes, he said "I LOVE YOU". and then disappeared.
God sent His One and Only Son, Jesus Christ to Die on the Cross for me, for us. He rose again 3 days later, He ASCENDED into heaven.
Surely... it's not about the bunny.

1 John 1: 6-10
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

Softly I announce...
My Presence.
Shimmering hues of radiance tap gently at your consciousness, seeking entrance. Though I have all Power in heaven and on earth, I am infinitely tender with you. The weaker you are, the more gently I approach you. Let your weakness be a door to My Presence. Whenever you feel inadequate, remember that I am your ever-present Help.
Hope in Me, and you will be protected from depression and self-pity. Hope is like a golden cord connecting you to heaven. The more you cling to this cord, the more I bear the weight of your burdens; thus, you are lightened. Heaviness is not of My kingdom. Cling to hope, and My rays of Light will reach you through the darkness.

1 Peter 1:22-25
Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for each other, love one another deeply, from the heart. 23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God. 24 For,
“All people are like grass,
and all their glory is like the flowers of the field;
the grass withers and the flowers fall,
25 but the word of the Lord endures forever.”

Waxing and Waning
It is evident with these posts over the course of the years that My Love, or at least my expression of Love and commitment to Christ, waxes and wanes.
If I can trust in One thing, it is that I know Our God is constant and consistent, He IS Love, which make it entirely impossible for Him to wax and wane. He is ALWAYS with us. He is Always Loving us.
Ephesians 3:17-21
And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge - that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever! Amen!!
