You have come through many trials on your journey with Me, and now there will be another change in your life. What you once thought was good might not seem so good to you anymore, and there is a reason for that; you are passing from strength to strength, glory to glory, and faith to faith in your journey heavenward with Me, so your perceptions will always be changing. Even though there are no shifting shadows with My Spirit, there will be changes in you until you reach perfection in Me. As the seasons change, you keep turning with them, bringing more and more glory to Me as you give yourself more and more to Me. You see, you are being conformed into My image as I mold you and perfect you on My Potter’s Wheel. Your true self is coming forward out of the clay, becoming a unique image reflecting My glory! Only when you place yourself into My hands am I able to make you into the person I created you to be from the very beginning, and it’s only by My love that this can and will be done. My love has carried you through all the trials and tribulations and all the things that have come against you in your life. The very things that come against you and try you help to create My perfect image in you because these are the same sufferings and temptations I experienced when I was on Earth. I am with you to help you overcome the same things I overcame. This can only be done by faith, with the Holy Spirit leading you.
So begin this year with faith, the faith of the Son of God that has been given to you. I am He Who loves you with an everlasting love and Who cherishes you as the crowning glory of My creation!
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Galatians 2:20 (KJV)
Lord, I praise You for Your beauty, Your love, and Your peace that passes my understanding! I thank you that I am an overcomer in You and that I am with You forever. Help me to become the person you intended for me to be from the beginning and strengthen my faith through the Holy Spirit. In Jesus’s name I pray. Amen.
