“As the Father loved Me, I also loved you; abide in My love. If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love. These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.” (John 15:9-12)

Child,

I have not called you to live in sadness, but to trust in Me, to rejoice in Me, and to share My joy with those I have sent to you. You will not always have things around you as you desire, but My joy comes from within you. I have placed within you resurrection power and faith. My joy does not depend on outward events, but on that which I have placed within you. Be at rest. Cast your burdens upon Me continually, because I care for you. You are My delight and I have given you everything you need to live an abundant life.
