Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns: There are things that you have put off doing that need to be done. Now is the time to take the proverbial bull by the horns, put dread aside, and get started. Procrastination is not a good look for you.
Proverbs 24:33-34 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest; so shall your poverty come like a prowler, and your need like an armed man.

You, My child have stood your ground and have overcome. I say this not for you to “pat yourself on the back” but for you to now lead out in My ways. You will be raised as a standard for others to follow. Continue in My ways because you are promoting My kingdom.
Isaiah 59:19 “So [as the result of the Messiah’s intervention] they shall [reverently] fear the name of the Lord from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him and put him to flight [for He will come like a rushing stream which the breath of the Lord drives].” Robin Robinson Bohlin
January 14, 2025. There has been an attack on your character. I know you are innocent in this situation, so do not feel like you have to defend yourself. Let your No be No and your Yes be Yes. This is not a battle that will be won with your words. I am the one who will bring truth and light to this circumstance. So, stand on My Word and watch Me shift this situation.

January 14, 2013. (Reposted) Self- doubt has crept into your mind and actions. You failed to carry through with what I said and then felt you somewhat overstepped your bounds by what you said. This is causing you yucky feelings. Self- doubt sits on the door step of self-pity. Precious one, you don’t want to go there. Your enemy the devil wants you there and wants you to stay stuck at that place. He wants you immobilized. That isn’t where I want you. I know your heart and I hear you asking forgiveness. Now let your emotions line up with what is in your heart and with what I said. You’ve repented now go forward.
Luke 15:21-23 “His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son. ‘ “But his father said to the servants, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet. And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast,” Bev Robinson

Whether it’s the warmth of a fire, a comfy blanket, or a hot beverage of some sort, all of us are drawn to warmth in some form or fashion. Even when you’re about to get into the tub, most everyone enjoys the warm water which envelopes you. The Lord says, “What are you portraying or revealing? Are others drawn to you or do they change direction when they recognize you? Display My warmth to those around you. Like a fire on a chilly day, be an inviting person to be around. Choose to exhibit Me in an appealing way. Be about drawing people to Me.
1 Thessalonians 3:6 “But now that Timothy has just come back to us from [his visit to] you and has brought us the good news of [the steadfastness of] your belief and [the warmth of your] love, and [reported] how kindly you cherish a constant and affectionate remembrance of us [and that you are] longing to see us as we [are to see] you,” Kevin Robinson
January 14, 2013. (Reposted) Stop looking for honor from mankind. When those close to you find out that you are just like them, your gifting seems to fade a lot. You discover that your gifting is not really yours but belongs to God, even though it can never be withdrawn from you. Treat all people the same whether they accept you or not. Love overcomes a multitude of sins. Love never fails. Love drives away fear. At this very moment in your life, the most important thing you can possibly do is show and demonstrate true love as God has shown and given to you. In fact, and though they may not admit it, everyone you meet during the day desperately needs God’s love through you.
Matthew 13:57-58 “And they were deeply offended and refused to believe in Him. Then Jesus told them, “A prophet is honored everywhere except in his own hometown and among his own family.” And so He did only a few miracles there because of their unbelief.” Ras Robinson
