February 29, 2008 Harold: Lord, thank You for my journey group. Thanks for their sincere hearts and their encouragement to me. Yes, they are a good group. Continue to share with them what I have spoken to you. I will continue to show you their hearts. One in your group is hurting, but he is Mine. Continue to encourage him and pray for him. I know who you mean; I just sent him an encouraging e-mail. Lord, it is truly wonderful sensing You with me in everything I do. Thanks. What do You want to say to me? Lean not unto your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge Me, My understanding, My power, My love and I will direct you. Do not become content in yourself, instead be content in Me and be obedient to My directions. Lord, I see Gena worrying about her medical problems and I sense that she is really stressed over these things at times. I also see her trusting You more and more. How can I help her? Continue to lead her in hearing My voice. Every time she asks Me to talk to her, I will encourage her to lean on Me, I will draw her into a deeper trust of Me. She will learn to not be so stressed even when she doesn’t understand what will happen. She is learning to trust Me. Encourage her, talk to her about her worries, feel her concern and her pain. Point her to Me; I am her Comfort. You cannot meet all her needs, but I can. I love you and Gena dearly. I am always available to you. I will always talk to you and help you. I am with you always. Thanks, Lord. I love You. You are awesome! March 1, 2008 Gena: Lord here I sit with tears in my eyes. That was so beautiful...the words that You gave Harold. Do You have some words for me? Yes, Gena, I can not only see the tears in your eyes but the tears in your heart. As you are fearful of what lays ahead. Trust me My daughter. I know the past and the future, and I will be with you through every trial. You did not have your devotions this morning. You ran off to walk and then things piled up for you. But you must remember that your devotion to Me is very important. And I want you to be disciplined. I know you are right, Jesus Every time I miss my devotions, my day suffers or rather I suffer. I am also worried sick about our son. I know he's in bad shape mentally and physically right now. Please tell me what we should do...... You and Harold are doing ok, you are suffering with him and that is natural. You love him, as I do. Just keep him lifted up in prayer and show him you are there for him, but he will have to suffer for his mistakes in life. I am working with him now, so have faith in Me. Please show me daily, Jesus, the things I should be doing and not doing. I am Your servant, and I want to do Your will. I am going to have my devotions right now, Lord, Please forgive me.
