Small Straws by Marsha Burns:
May 27, 2025: You will be inclined to stew and fret about what you need to do, but agonizing will not help. Believe in Me, says the Lord, and in My ability to show you the way and give you precise directions. I will not leave you nor forsake you. I will order your steps and bring you through to victory.
Psalm 37:23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and he delights in His way.
May 27, 2025. You have this feeling that I have gone silent or that I am not listening. This could not be further from the truth. The very fact that you are reading this message lets you know that I am listening to you. Just because something did not go the way that you wanted it to go doesn’t mean that I don’t hear you. I know everything – trust Me. In this way, the devil is defeated.
1 Peter 3:12 “For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and His ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against the ones doing evil." Robin Robinson Bohlin
May 27, 2025. I’m calling My people to attention, I'm calling them to assemble together. When you stop assembling with others, you become an easy target for the enemy. I have been wanting to use you to minister to others but when you separate yourself from others, you begin to only look inward, focused on yourself. That is not My will for you. The time of "Us four and no more" is over. So, rise up and come together!
Matthew 18:20 “For where two or three gather in My name, there am I with them.”
Proverbs 18:1 “He who willfully separates and estranges himself [from God and man] seeks his own desire and pretext to break out against all wise and sound judgment.” Pam Jackson

I have a will for your life that was made since before you were born. Before you were born again, at times you fought against the goads just like the apostle Paul. Sometimes even now you resist Me. Most times it is not with complete awareness until afterwards. But then, precious one, when you realize it you readily repent. Seek Me with your whole heart by continually walking in surrender. When you walk that path, I show you as you go and we have sweet communion. Surrendering to Me is pleasant to your soul. Even when things around you are in turmoil you can still remain at peace when you surrender.
Romans 6:16 "Do you not know that if you continually surrender yourselves to anyone to do his will, you are the slaves of him whom you obey, whether that be to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience which leads to righteousness (right doing and right standing with God)?" Bev Robinson

What choices will you make today toward the benefit of My kingdom? Will you love Me and only Me, and place no other gods or idols before Me? Will you walk in love toward every person you encounter? Will you walk in forgiveness toward those who have wronged you? Will you love yourself and receive who I have made you to be? I have given you free will. You may choose however you please and make decisions completely separate from Me if you like. It's your choice to choose love and forgiveness. There are consequences either for good or for bad to every move you make. Choose wisely.
Joshua 24:15 "If it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."

You are experiencing a stressful situation. You find yourself right in the middle of making an important decision. You cannot find the usual peace and joy you seek in situations like this. It is best to back away and try again another day. There needs to be a cooling off season to clear the mind and spirit. This is not a failure to communicate. Rather it has become a test of your heart and soul. The Lord is teaching you to seek Him, His will and wisdom above all other things. A secondary lesson is that you must avert tendencies to rely too much on your emotions. Finally, He is expecting you to lead out in a steady, righteous way. You can do this. Call out to the Lord for help.
1 Peter 3:11 "Let him turn aside from evil, and let him do good! Let him seek peace, and pursue it!" Ras Robinson
