The Father says today,

"Child, you don't have to earn My love, you only need to come to me. Come to me as a child with wonder and awe and expectation. Come as you are and let me do the rest. I know things don't seem the way you thought, but I really do have a plan. Remember your favorite verse? I really do know the plans for you- the right ones- to prosper you and give you a future and a hope. Here's the thing, I want you to know those plans! You are on the right track. Just because a few doors are closing does not mean that you are wrong or that you missed a detail. You are always in the right place and just at the right time. Trust me, I am steering you clear of danger.

"Today you will see this demonstrated. Even those moments where you just happen to be, are part of my plan. This isn't a shackles and chains type of relationship, ours is one of freedom. What must you do? you ask. You must trust me and follow my lead, says the Father. Trust me with every detail. The way a child trusts a Father, dancing on the top of his huge shoes in ecstatic laughter and joy not knowing which direction he will twirl is how I am asking you to trust me. Place your hands in mine, place your worries there too. I am not looking for perfection, I am looking for those who will let me love them!

"Put your dancing shoes on, because I am about to release you into a dance you have only dreamed of. You won't just run and not grow weary, but you will lose the worry and dance your way into the hearts of those who don't yet know the greater joy of fully trusting me. What a relief I see upon your face. Today you will remember that I am the author and the perfector of your faith- and I am using everything to get you there, even those imperfections and mistakes. I haven't stopped loving you- there is nothing in this world or the next that could stop me from loving you. You have let go of so much, you now fit through the narrow gate! Now you can hold my hand completely intertwined and unobstructed by all of those trinkets you once carried- now you won't fall when I twirl you into your destiny. No matter what others say or think of you, my thoughts of you matter most," says the Father, "and I want you to know them."

1 Corinthians 2: 9-11 (TPT)

Things never discovered or heard of before, things beyond our ability to imagine— these are the many things God has in store for all his lovers.

But God now unveils these profound realities to us by the Spirit. Yes, he has revealed to us his inmost heart and deepest mysteries through the Holy Spirit, who constantly explores all things. After all, who can really see into a person’s heart and know his hidden impulses except for that person’s spirit? So it is with God. His thoughts and secrets are only fully understood by his Spirit, the Spirit of God.

1 Corinthians 2: 13-16 (TPT)

We join together Spirit-revealed truths with Spirit-revealed words. Someone living on an entirely human level rejects the revelations of God’s Spirit, for they make no sense to him. He can’t understand the revelations of the Spirit because they are only discovered by the illumination of the Spirit. Those who live in the Spirit are able to carefully evaluate all things, and they are subject to the scrutiny of no one but God. For
