“For I am the LORD your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.” —Isaiah 41:13

I love you, My child. Hold My hand and focus on Me every second of today. Let’s just focus on today, okay? Don’t worry about tomorrow. My child, one of the main reasons you struggle in your trial is because you keep looking ahead into the vast unknown. The way you saw things happening in the future just a short time ago, you have replaced with the fear of the unknown. This trial of yours has shattered your dreams; faded your hopes; unraveled your plans. But if you stay focused on Me just for today and each day after, you’ll slowly start to see that My purpose for you is greater than what you planned for yourself. My heart breaks that this trial is painful for you. But it’s also an unraveling of your plans so My plans can take root in your life. I often allow for the tearing down so I can build things back up. Removing the deep-rooted self in your life in lieu of Me always hurts in the beginning. Unearthing and tearing apart the foundation of self is always a painful step. But that step will end and the rebuild will start. And it’s during the rebuild where you can see My plans for you starting to take shape. Until then, stay close to Me every day. Keep trusting Me every day, and you’ll see that when things are built according to My purpose—your life will prosper for Me more than it ever has before. Go ahead and hold My hand as tight you need to today, and let Me continue with the teardown. The rebuild will start soon enough, My child. I love you!

“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” —Matthew 6:34

“Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails” —Proverbs 19:21

“For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ” —1 Corinthians 3:11
