“A day to me is as a thousand years, and a thousand years, is as one day. You want me to move according to your timetable, but that is not the way I navigate time. I am from the place of always and forever because I have always existed. Forever is difficult for you to fathom because your eternity has not yet come.

Your life is but a breath, you are here for a very short time. Yet, your life is precious to me and I want to walk with you through it. I desire fellowship with you, to give your life meaning and purpose while you’re here.

As you choose to hone in on me, the light of my love encompasses you. It enables you to see past your circumstances and into the truths I desire to teach you. Sometimes you make your life harder than it needs to be by trying to handle everything on your own. You rush ahead to get through it quickly rather than allowing everything to happen in my time.

Though challenges will come, I will always provide for you and help you to find your way. Accept where I have you right now, trust me, and believe that all will work out for good because you love me. When you release your cares into my control, even when facing difficult battles, you will know my peace as you abide in me.

Because I am faithful to my word, you can live joyfully. I will not fail you no matter what is happening in your world, no matter what you see with your eyes, and no matter how long it takes. I always show up on time.”

• “But you must not forget this one thing, dear friends: A day is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years is like a day.” 2 Peter 3:8
• “But I trust in your unfailing love. I will rejoice because you have rescued me.”
  Psalms 13:5
• “You have made my life no longer than the width of my hand. My entire lifetime is just a moment to you; at best, each of us is but a breath.” Psalm 39:5
• “For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of what we eat or drink, but of living a life of goodness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.” Romans 14:17

I am a devoted follower of Christ who believes that when we have ears to hear, God will speak to us. He not only uses His word through the Bible, but he uses the Holy Spirit to communicate with us in many different ways, but mostly in the ways He knows each individual heart will hear Him. This blog is simply about sharing the whispers that the Lord has spoken to my heart during quiet times with Him. I give Him all the credit for the words shared on this site. If there is any encouragement for you, as there has been for me, the blessing is from Him. I pray that all who find this blog will hear his voice in these Whispers.
