"Very often it happens that we do not pray, we don’t feel like praying, or many times we pray like parrots, with the mouth, but our heart is not in it. This is the moment to say to the Spirit: “Come, come Holy Spirit, warm my heart. Come and teach me to pray, teach me to look to the Father, to look to the Son. Teach what the path of faith is like. Teach me how to love and, above all, teach me to have an attitude of hope.”"
Pope Francis GENERAL AUDIENCE MARCH 17, 2021
Prayer and praise lifts your way. Rest in my love, rest in me and let my prayerful silence overtake your ways of being with peace. My love fills the heart with joy. Silence is precious to the heart and mind giving way to flourishing in a deeper presence of my presence. Resting in me then finds a wisdom of words given - those of my Spirit and love find precedence in your soul, healing the mind. Prayer and praise provide the life giving waters needed.

Peace be yours, peace I give in these days of inconsistency. Allow my presence to be brought into your being so as to free you of uncertainty. Allow me to minister to your every need in these unknown times. I will give you peace of heart. Thus, you will be free to go forward in the divisiveness of each day knowing my presence is with you showering you with my love, comfort and direction. Come rest in me and my presence in moments of prayer. Amen.

Turn to me. I am here. I have not abandoned you. I am pouring out my Mercy upon all those who are seeking my help. Come to me and let me fill your heart with my love and peace. I have so much that I want to give you. As moments of difficulty come before you, do not fear. Turn to me and trust. Rest in my presence. (D.S. 7/29/20)
Come to me all those who are heavy laden. I will give you peace bringing forth new ways to go forth in my love... bear fruit...think clearly. Be with me in your endeavors. Rest in me and find ways to be productive in my presence to bring forth my presence ever more clearly. Respond and see the way to my ever present glory. Trust in the response to be given allowing my fulfillment to be accomplished in you. Great are my gifts beyond your knowing. Allow me to be your presence guiding your way. True resolve comes forth. Grasp onto the spiritual designs it provides for your goodness, giftedness and provisions. I will show the way. Resolve all else to my ways and find true presence and peace of mind in all ways. Amen.

My people my people how much I love you. My heart weeps seeing you suffer. Return to me I desire to heal you. I desire that you be free as I have created you to be. I offer you my mercy so that you can walk in my freedom so that my love and peace can reign in the world. (FF04032020)
