Small Straws by Marsha Burns: Do not be so hard on yourself. You know that condemnation is not what you need if you are going to have a breakthrough. Doing the best you can with what you have will suffice. So pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start all over again. Kindness is a virtue, and that includes being kind to yourself. 

1 Corinthians 13:4-6  Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

April 17, 2025. Don’t give up so easily. I want you to stay the course yet a little while longer. I know you are tired and weary, and you can’t see the end, but I can. Breathe in and receive My strength. Breathe in again and receive My courage. Breathe in yet again and receive My spiritual eyes. Remember you are seated in the heavens with Me. Begin to approach this situation as I would. Remember I am with you, and I have a plan for this situation.

Isaiah 41:10  “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with My victorious right hand.”   Robin Robinson Bohlin

I know the seriousness of what is happening, and have been waiting until others also realize the seriousness. You have been alerted and have alerted others. You have sought Me and bound the works of the enemy who has been stealthily at work. He is working to abort the tremendous good that is going on right now and will continue in the future. Now trust Me.  

Psalm 37:3-5  “Trust in the LORD and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Delight yourself in the LORD; and He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, and He will do it.”   Bev Robinson

You have put it off because of concerns that you will not do it as well as it needs to be done. The devil has been whispering this in your ear. This kind of thinking has caused procrastination close to paralysis. But this sliver is quickly coming. You will know when it comes. Do it then. And you will be amazed at how quickly it is finished and how well it is done. I have equipped you just for getting this done. Stand strong and don’t let the devil dissuade you.

Ecclesiastes 3:1 “There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven.” Bev Robinson

April 17, 2012.   (Reposted)      Come in really close to My bosom. You are My most special one. You are the very best that I have created. In My bosom reside peace, comfort and the warmth of My love. I hear your cries for help. I hear your cries of hunger. I hear your cries of discomfort. Though at times you have feelings of abandonment, I am never distant from you. Can you see that you and I are inseparable? My love for you is firm as a tight embrace. Feel My arms that surround you. Reach up to Me, and I will pick you up. I will console you and dry your tears.

Isaiah 40:11 “He shall tend His flock as a shepherd, and He shall gather the lambs with His arm, and shall soothe them that are with young.“  Kevin Robinson 

April 17, 2012. (Reposted)  Well here you are again, waiting at the foot of the mountain. You have been here before and you know what happens when you decide to go up. There are two things necessary. The first is to change your garments followed quickly by the second which is washing your hands. Don’t be a coward and shrink back as the children of Israel did. Rather, be like Moses and face the smoke and fire of the unknown. Better still, be like Joshua and make sure you cross over. You are confident and very courageous. That is how I know you will climb this mountain again. I will be there waiting for you. You are my fine workmanship.

Exodus 19:10-11 “Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes. And let them be ready for the third day. For on the third day the LORD will come down upon Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.”    Ras Robinson
