“Hold fast to the hope you have in me. When doubts creep into your mind or trouble knocks at your door, stand firm and be strong for you are not alone. You have the abiding, constant companionship of my Spirit within you. I will equip you to deal with whatever comes your way.

Storms will come and go, but nothing will ever overtake you as you go through them with me. I am your source of strength, the anchor of your hope, and your faithful deliverer. You may trust me to protect you. Find comfort in my love and walk confidently in the truth of my word.

My love encompasses the entirety of your life. It is the only love you will ever experience that is perfect and inescapable. When your eyes are focused on me, you can navigate anything because I am at the helm. Hold fast to the hope you’ve been called to.”

And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.” Ephesians 3: 16-19

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.
