Your life will mean nothing if My presence is not your first priority. Your work and accomplishments today will equal wood, hay and stubble if you are void of love. My presence is love and love is My presence. You don’t need to look for My presence you need to wait for My presence. Rest in Me, and wait patiently for Me: don’t fret because of him who prospers in his business, or because of the man who brings wicked devices to pass, Psalm 37:7. Leave all that to Me, they are on the road to hell.
Stop thinking and saying, what are we going to eat? or what are we going to drink? or, what are we going to wear? [32] the world looks for these things constantly but your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things. [33] Above all else you must seek first My kingdom, and My right way of doing things; and all these things will be added to you, [34]. Stop thinking about tomorrow because tomorrow has its own issues, and I will handle those when you get there,” Matthew 6:31-34.
Do not count busyness as fulfilling My will, but see it as an enemy deterrent to get you to stop waiting for and on Me. He is constantly pushing you to move from one urgency to another. Do not let anyone else set or determine your schedule!
If you have given your life to Me, your schedule, your calendar, and your travels are mine to set in place. Always, always, always, hesitate before saying yes to invitations, or demands on your time!
Wait for My yes or no! Let no one pressure you with urgency by demanding an instant answer to anything. In the kingdom, he who hesitates is not lost, but wise he give Me opportunity to say, Yes or No! Make sure that you wait and acknowledge Me in every decision and I will continue direct your schedule, so you can walk in love today! Proverbs 3:5-7.
