It’s Time to Listen

“My precious child,

I have loved you with an everlasting love, and I formed you with My own hands. I placed eternity in your heart so that you would seek Me, yet I see how the noise of the world has drawn your attention away. I am not angry; I am not distant. My heart aches because I long to be close to you. I long for you to hear Me—not out of duty, but because you know how deeply I care for you.

I have been speaking to you all along. In the beauty of creation, I’ve whispered My glory. In the stillness of your heart, I’ve called your name. In My Word, I’ve left you promises to cling to, truths to shape you, and love to anchor you. Yet I see how hard it can be for you to hear through the distractions and pain. But, child, I am patient. I am kind. I am waiting.

When you feel lost, I want to guide you. When you feel burdened, I want to carry your load. When you feel unworthy, I want to remind you that you are My treasure. But you must quiet the noise around you and come to Me. Not because you’ve figured everything out, but simply as you are.

Even when you’ve wandered, I’ve been near. I have never stopped pursuing you. I am the Shepherd who leaves the ninety-nine for the one. I am the Father who runs to meet you with joy, even when you feel unworthy to come home. You are worth everything to Me, and I want you to know the depth of My love.

So lean in. Draw close. Open your heart to My voice. You won’t always hear Me in thunder or fire, but you will find Me in the gentle whisper. My Spirit is always with you, ready to comfort, guide, and remind you of who I am.

Do not let fear, shame, or busyness keep you from Me. I am the only One who can fill the emptiness inside you, the only One who can satisfy the longings of your heart. All I ask is that you come. Bring your questions, your doubts, your struggles—bring everything to Me. I will meet you there, and you will find that I’ve been waiting for this moment all along.

My child, I love you more than you can fathom. I am not far. I am with you, and I am speaking. Come, and listen to My heart.”
