May you join with others to seek God at times of need, understanding it will affect so many others as well, asking God for His mercy, in full assurance of His provision, as you honor Him by your request, turning from all other sources, depending on and deepening your relationship with the Lord, which is the true purpose of all that drives you to, and draws you near, the Presence of God.

May you arm yourself with the same attitude as Christ, Who suffered in His body, that you may be done with sin and, as a result, not live the rest of your earthly life chasing the desires of your own human passions but, rather, for the will of God. 1 Peter 4
May you realize that those who do not know the pleasures of a Godly life which is lived in obedient and humble service to the Lord will think it strange that you do not plunge with them in the same flood of dissipation, debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry. They will heap abuse on you, but understand that they will have to give account to Him Who is ready to judge the living and the dead. Be ready, therefore, to preach the gospel to them so that though they might be judged according to men in regard to the body, they may yet live according to God in regard to the spirit. 1 Peter 4
I desire to give you My eyes to see with, My child, so that you will perceive the beauty of My creation, made in My image and testifying to My nature.
I want you to be able to discern between the coating, covering, encrusting blemishes and consequences of sin that distort the appearance of much which surrounds you, My little one, and the true substance of My creation that comes from Me and speaks of Me.
That is how you will be able to treasure those who are Mine, though they offer little beauty for your eyes to see. When you see through My eyes, you understand the treasure of a heart that is intent on serving Me. My eyes will show you the value of a mind whose thoughts are dedicated to sharing the riches of My love.
My spiritual vision will reveal to you the honor I have prepared for those scarred in My service, dirty from work in My fields, wounded and limping from the warfare against My enemy, broken and poured out on My altar with but one thought before them, and that, My precious one, is to make sure My Name is glorified.
Ask Me to show this to you, My dear one, that you may better serve My Body in humility, showing honor to those I choose to honor, encouraging those who need refreshing, strengthening those who are giving all, that your joy, in Me, may be full.
