Don't feel bad Ali. I guess I could be guilty of the same thing. My morning was he** and I was talking to a friend who was smoking and although I didn't ask for a drag I really wanted too. Did inhale some of the smoke off it though. Didn't help the stress level. Got a lozenge in my mouth right now. They work pretty good at taking the edge off.

I am calling you  to a life of constant communion with me. Basic training includes learning to live above your circumstances even while interacting on that cluttered plan of life. You yearn for a simplified lifestyle, so that your communication with Me can be uninterrupted. but I challenge you to relinquish the fantasy of an uncluttered world. Accept each day just as it comes and find Me in the midst of it all.

Talk  with Me about every aspect of your day including your feelings. Remember that your ultimate goal is not to control or fix everything around you; It is to keep communing with Me. A successful day is on in which you have stayed in touch with Me even if many things remain undone at the end of the day.Do not let your to-do-list (written or mental)become an idol directing your life.Instead ask My Spirit to guide you moment by moment. He will keep you close to me.

I assurance  that I am entirely Good meets your basic need for security. Your life is not subject to the whims of a sin-strained deity.

Do not Search for Security in the world you inhabit, You tend to make mental check-list of things you need to do in order to gain control of your life. If only you could check everything off your list, you could relax and be at peace. But the more you work to accomplish that goal, the more things crop up on your list. The harder you try, the more frustrated your become.

There is a better way to find security in this life. Instead of scrutinizing your checklist, focus your attention on My Presence with you. This continual contact with Me will keep you in My Peace. Moreover, I will help you sort out what is important and what is not, what needs to be done now and what does not. Fix your eyes not on what is seen (your circumstances), but on what is unseen (My Presence).

Rejoice in that inheritance, which no one can take away from you, but do not seek your heaven on earth.

Begin each day anticipating problems asking Me to equip you for whatever difficulties you will encounter. The best equipping is My living Presence. My hand that never lets go of yours. Discuss every thing with Me. Take a lighthearted view of trouble, seeing it as a challenge that you and I together can handle. Remember that I am on your side, and I have overcome the world.

[Thomas3.20.2010]

	Don't be so hard on yourself. I can bring good even out of your mistakes. Your finite mind tends to look backward, longing to undo decisions and have come to regret. This is a waste of time and energy, leading only to frustration. Instead of floundering in the past, release your mistakes to Me. Look to Me in trust anticipating that My infinite creativity can weave both good choices and bad into lovely design.            (My past mistakes in many areas of my life are something I have a hard time dealing with help me Lord)            Because you are human, you will continue to make mistakes. Thinking that you should live an error-free life is symptomatic  of pride. Your failures can be a source of blessing, humbling you and giving you empathy for other people in their weaknesses. Best of all failure highlights your dependence on Me. I am able to bring beauty out of the morass of your mistakes. Trust Me, and watch to see what I will do. In Jesus name Amen.            Romans 8:28 Micah: 7:17                        Don’t be wishing you were someplace else or with someone else. Where you are right now is God’s place for you. Live and obey and love and believe right there. God, not your marital status, defines your life.        1Corinthians 7:17

[Thomas3.20.2010]

Do not resist or run from the difficulties in your life. These problems are not random mistakes: they are hand tailored blessings designed for your benefit and growth. Embrace all the circumstances that I allow in your life, trusting Me to bring good out of them. View problems as opportunities to rely more fully on Me.

When you start to feel stressed, let those feelings alert you to your need for Me. Thus, your needs become doorways to deep dependence on Me and increasing intimacy between us. Although self-sufficiency is acclaimed in the world, reliance on Me produces abundant living in My kingdom. Thank Me for the difficulties in your life, since they provide protection and the idolatry of self reliance.

John 15:5 2 Corinthians 1: 8-9 Ephesians 5:20

Love never gives up. Love cares more for others than for self.
Love doesn't want what it doesn't have.
1 Corinthians 13-4

[Thomas3.20.2010]

Learn to relate to others through My love rather than yours. Your human love is ever so limited., full of flaws and manipulation. My loving Presence,which always enfolds you, is available to bless others as well as you, Instead of trying harder to help people through your own paltry supplies, become aware of My unlimited supply, which is accessible to you continually. Let My Love envelope your outreach to other people.

Many of My precious children have fallen prey to burnout. A better description of their condition might be "drainout." Countless interactions with needy people have drained them., without their conscious awareness,. You are among those weary ones, who are like wounded soldiers needing R&R. Take time to rest in the Love-Light of My Presence. I will gradually restore to you the energy that you have lost over the years. Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and you will find rest for your souls.

Esodus 33:14 Matthew 11:28-29

No matter what happens, always be thankful, for this is God’s will for you.
