Lent Day 6 - Come Up For Air

Come up for air. Now breathe. You are alive, child. Now live.

See what I see? Touch my world as I have touched you. Devote yourself to my way and lead others to do the same. I’ve got you. Here, put your hand in mine. Look to me. Watch me. See, I’ve got you. Shine, like the stars. Glow, like the embers stoked in a warm fire. Be who I created you to be, child. Live, love, move. In me. Through me. Sing. Lift up your voice, child. Beloved. Sing, weary soul. Sing. Lift up a mighty shout. From deep within. Let love flow. Healed, so you may heal. Touched, so you may touch. Restored, so you may restore. That’s me. In you. Just be. Everlasting, unconditional, enduring love. Birthed, that you may birth. Bring forth life. Speak, child. Speak. Speak life. Live life. No turning back. Look ahead. Carry my load. Feel that? It’s easy. No stress. No worry. No trouble. No fear. Just lightness. Abundant life. You’ve got what you need. Everything. I am your all. I am all you need. You’ve got this. Journey on.

God speaks. If we take the time to quiet our racing thoughts and be still for a moment, we can hear him. He is speaking all the time.

Draw closer to God as you listen to 40 messages of love straight from the Father’s heart, reflect on Bible verses and learn to talk to God with guided questions and prayers. As you write your thoughts in the journaling space provided, you will create a precious record of how God speaks to you that you can always treasure.

Deepen your walk with God as you listen and respond to him speaking to you in this beautiful devotional journal.


Sojourn ahead. Lightness. Life. Love.

Peace. Be still. Rest.
