Your past began before you were ever conceived on the earth. You were born from above. I breathed your spirit into your physical body and knit you together in your mother's womb. You were never an accident or a surprise. I placed you in your family at the right time and place in history. I actually know what I am doing and have done this with every human on the earth.
Circumstances come against you before you even see the light of day. Even then, I have sent my angels to guard, direct and protect you throughout your life journey. I knew the obstacles and always placed "breadcrumbs" for you to find Me, for I have placed eternity in the heart of man. I have always been with you. You are always on My mind.
Circumstances change, but My love for you never changes. Nothing, absolutely nothing, can separate You from My great love. I am always hovering over you, gently steering you towards your destiny in Christ. When you go off-course, I will continue to bring you back into alignment, but never force your will. I always let you choose, allowing you to learn. My allowing you to learn is not a punishment. I am using circumstances to mold your will to Mine.
When you learn to trust that My will is the best, regardless of the cost, you will indeed be free. Dying to self is the most painful part of your human experience, so choose you this day whom you will serve. Staying on the straight and narrow path may be challenging, but the life-giving fruit it produces will be worth the cost in this life. You will live to see the good fruit you have borne in this life and beyond!
Ecclesiastes 11:5 Living Bible (TLB)
God’s ways are as mysterious as the pathway of the wind and as the manner in which a human spirit is infused into the little body of a baby while it is yet in its mother’s womb.
Ecclesiastes 3:11 The Passion Translation (TPT)
He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted eternity [a sense of divine purpose] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end.
Proverbs 4:25-27 The Passion Translation (TPT)
25 Set your gaze on the path before you. With fixed purpose, looking straight ahead, ignore life’s distractions.
26 Watch where you’re going! Stick to the path of truth, and the road will be safe and smooth before you.
27 Don’t allow yourself to be sidetracked for even a moment or take the detour that leads to darkness.
