The Tree of Wisdom

Good teachers will give you a cup of cold water, great teachers will lead you to the fountain. Good teachers will share the leaves and branches from the tree of wisdom, great teachers will give you its seed.

Beloved, is wisdom found in one cup? Is it contained in only one tree branch? Could you ever fill an ocean’s void with a drinking-glass? Could you ever transplant a great tree leaf by leaf? It is a strain. I am a great river flowing with knowledge. I am a good seed of wisdom.¹ I am Jesus, your Lord and Savior.

Learn of Me.² Know Me.³ Let Me be planted in you. Without My anointing, all will seem laborious and vain.⁴ I only am that good seed. You need not plant a multitude of seeds. I only will sprout up into a tree of wisdom. I will take care of all the leaves and branches, you need but My seed.⁵ In Me only is the hundred-fold increase that you desire.

Amen.

Rainy Days

Do not let the clouds of yesterday obscure the sunshine of today, nor let the sunshine of today give a false hope of tomorrow. For the rainy days of the soul are brought for nourishment,¹ and the sunshine for health. To dwell in one or the other for all of life is to be in a false balance, and an unjust weight.² I bring both.

You need not pray for rain, (and who could bear to), nor seek sunshine. They will each come as I see fit. For lo, it is not for you to know the times or the seasons…³ Yet, in all things, give thanks – “for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.” -1 Thessalonians 5:18

Oh Beloved, you cannot see how your life will turn out from where you are now. You ought to give thanks in faith and trust Me, regardless. What is a month, a year, a decade of sorrow; or a long detour from what you believe to be My will? Child, you cannot see the forest for the trees. When you come forth from the trial – as a dark forest – you will understand.⁴

In the meantime, do not be discouraged. Do not rebel. Give thanks to your God for His care and His activity in your life. Give thanks for His real-life training that He gives each day. Much more can be accomplished in one day from one of God’s refined instruments than could be produced in a lifetime from a stubborn instrument.⁵

Again, beloved, I say, think not your life wasted, nor your time squandered. For I chasten those that I love.⁶ Let a man only ask this: Do I love God with my whole heart? Do I love others as myself? If a man has this love, he can have God’s grace, no matter where it takes him. He can rest in God’s will, no matter how it breaks him.

Don’t Look Down

Look.
Look at Me.
My child, look to Me.

Look into My eyes, and know this: I am your salvation.¹ I am your healing.

You need not understand all of what is happening, but simply that I am the answer.² Don’t look down to your own ways, but rather, look up to Mine.³ Do not look to your mire, but look to My rainbow. Do not focus on your own faults, but know the power of God. Do not look to the entanglements of sin, but rather the goodness of God.⁴

Beloved, you have crossed from death unto life. You have run off a steep cliff, and you have not fallen. You are afloat on My grace. Don’t look down.

You have run off a steep cliff; and, how can this be!? It is My salvation. Just as Peter walked out onto the water to Jesus,⁵ so too have I called you unto Myself. Don’t look down. Do not see the difficulties below, but the boundless power above.

Look at My countenance. I am your health. I am your purity. I am your strength. You need not sift them out from the hay and stubble of the world. Look unto Me, and you will have peace.⁶
