Word of the Day
I oppose the proud and give grace to the humble (James 4:6). I am drawn to you and My grace abounds. Not only does it abound, but it follows you in sync with its companion mercy. A humble heart hears, sees what others cannot and is strengthen by Me (Psalms 10:17 Psalms 113:6).

Your prayerful position is expressive like the sweet kisses a child plants on his mother’s face and reminds you to be rooted in the soil of humility. This is truly Holy Ground when you are of such humble attitude and surrender. You yield your total being within the care of My capable hands.
Beloved, bare yourself and hide nothing, ask nothing. Your heart beats out every need you have in sonnets of prayer. In this way, you flow in the Spirit with an abiding faith. How good it feels to forget the world and all concerns that are not heavenly. You must, and will, realize, in the end, only I matter. Keep still, and let Me infill your being. It is and will be a sight to behold. Oh My beloved, the time has come not to ask or do but just to BE.
I know you have felt the need to perform at times in your life. Others have placed expectations and judgments on you. When you perform at the bequest of others without having a heart of sacrificial love and kindhearted intentions, resentment can form. This robs your quietness in Me, making you feel the need to perform for Me also. It is not to be so. All service to others comes out of time with Me or it doesn’t bear the fruit of patience, mercy and love. Today I grace you to come always into the quiet place and abide within the very soil of Holy Ground.
” O Lord, You have heard the desire and the longing of the humble and oppressed; You will prepare and strengthen and direct their hearts, You will cause Your ear to hear,” (Psalms 10:17 Amplified)
“Who humbles Himself to behold The things that are in the heavens and in the earth” (Psalms 113:6 NKJV)
Prayer
I receive Your grace and mercy today and I allow it to shape my life and actions toward myself and others. I bow in humble adoration within the secret place, letting my silence be like the kisses of a child. May the beating sonnet of my heart touch Your heart, creating an abiding flow of Holy Spirit in my life.
I give up by faith all tendencies to perform or live up to the expectations of others. If I am in a place of patient humility all expectations will be met for I will be walking out love. I move from doing to being… I can feel Your breath blowing the cob-webs of the past away as my humility creates a place, a sanctuary, even Holy Ground. My time had come to BE. Amen
