Speak with confidence, My child, when you call on My Name in prayer and conversation with Me. When you speak to Me of your needs, of your desires, when you offer praise and when worship wells up from your heart to honor Me, do not be hesitant or fearful, for I know every word on your tongue and every intent in your heart.
Let the expression of My love for you, that I demonstrated at Calvary, be a supporting bulwark when you find yourself pausing, feeling doubtful or uncertain. Let the knowledge of My boundless love wash away fear and bring a depth of assurance to your utterance that will cause the angels, who ceaselessly worship within sight of Me, to pause in wonder at the fervency of your expression of joy. They desire to glimpse even a part of what could cause such devotion from one such as you who has never seen Me.
Speak with assurance, My love, when you name My Name before men in witness and testimony during conversation and discussion. When you speak to them of My acts and of My ways, when you describe how I have touched your heart and changed your life, and when you seek to express the devotion you feel, do not be cautious or reticent, for you are speaking truth from your heart and facts from your life, which cannot be changed by the opinions or misunderstandings of others.
Know that some, those whom I am drawing, will wonder and desire to know better what can cause such heartfelt love and total devotion to Someone Who has never been seen. As the Father has shone in your heart, giving the Light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ, so shine that light, which is the wonder of heaven and the life of men, before all who cross paths with you.
