Cherish these intimate "words" from the Father.

Your Strength Lies In Me
"Do not fear. Your integrity, your clean heart,
your input and your talents will take you through your times of trial.
Your strength lies in Me and what else can you ask for. I am working through you.
I am doing the job. Do not apologize to others for what you think you do not have.
Just do the job, and do it the best you can. You will come out with joy,
and time will show you that you did not have to worry.
Go ahead. Trust Me."
The Father is always speaking...
He speaks to His children in many ways.
He speaks through every day circumstances in the simple results of our actions and our words.
He first, and foremost, speaks to us all through the reading and hearing of His Word.
He speaks to us through apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers.
He speaks through friends and strangers and angels unaware.
He speaks through signs and wonders, through triumph and tragedy, through dreams and visions.
And He speaks to us through His "still, small voice."
For some, the Father has chosen to make His still, small voice so distinct, and so totally recognizable from their own voice and thoughts, that clarity is preeminent.
Those with whom the Father has given this gift of clarity are so chosen because He has also given them a selfless innocence, a childlike faith and a self-effaced nature.
You can not manufacture these wonderful qualities because they are given by God. Ultimately, it is the Lord Himself who is speaking.
