Gifted

You are gifted.

You are my gift.

I love to give you gifts.

For each party, a gift.

For each celebration, a gift.

For every storm, a gift.

For every battle, a gift.

For every interaction, a gift.

For every problem, a gift.

For every touch, a gift.

For I am gifting you every drop.

I’m personally wrapping it.

Contained, to be delivered, to be packaged, to be transported, to be presented.

For my gift presents itself.

For my presence is a gift, presented.

You struggle to receive the gift.

Her touch is a gift, her kiss is a gift, her smile is a priceless treasure.

How is such a gift earned?

For a gift is purchased by the giver, with great regard for the receiver. The best gifts are those given by those who know what is needed but have the capacity to go beyond the need. Not from obligation but from an abundance of love.

The gift amplified by another has taken you over the edge.

You have received my gift, but you have shied away from receiving hers.

The test drive is over, the fullness awaits.

Be not overwhelmed, be my fountain of overflow.

Beyond the limit, over the limit, beyond the edge, over the edge.

Upon the edge, you dangle by a thread, you hold on with all your might.

Yet what will happen if you fall?

Be in free fall, let freedom fall, for in falling you shall be free.

For you are so focussed on holding on, you have forgotten who it is that holds you.

Ask and you shall receive.

I did not say ask and you might receive.

You ask for the small thing, the insignificant thing, the place to park. Without fail I have provided it.

You ask for the payment from those who steadfastly refuse to pay, and yet was this not received?

You strive to obtain, that which I want to give you.

John 16:20-25 I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that you shall weep and grieve, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy. A woman, when she gives birth to a child, has grief (anguish, agony) because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she no longer remembers her pain (trouble, anguish) because she is so glad that a man (a child, a human being) has been born into the world. So for the present you are also in sorrow (in distress and depressed); but I will see you again and then your hearts will rejoice, and no one can take from you your joy (gladness, delight). And when that time comes, you will ask nothing of Me you will need to ask Me no questions. I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that My Father will grant you whatever you ask in My Name aspresenting all that I AM. Up to this time you have not asked a single thing in My Name aspresenting all that I AM; but now ask and keep on asking and you will receive, so that your joy (gladness, delight) may be full and complete. I have told you these things in parables (veiled language, allegories, dark sayings); the hour is now coming when I shall no longer speak to you in figures of speech, but I shall tell you about the Father in plain words and openly (without reserve).

Your reception is broken, your receiver is broken, your capacity to receive shall be enlarged, beyond measure to overflowing.

You see it now, a great pouring out.

You say “when” long before I am ready, for my intention is for you to be drenched, saturated by my goodness.

I must be true to my word, for you have given so much, I must give back, pressed down, running over your lap.

I’m stretching your thinking, you thought the gift of the car was just about giving, yet it is more about receiving.

Receive my gift of joy.

Receive my gift of connection.

Receive my gift of power.

Receive my gift of limit less, without boundary performance.

Receive my gift of sound.

Receive my gift of attention.

Receive my gift of open doors.

Receive my gift of sports mode.

Receive my gift of loss of traction. Let’s go for a spin!

Receive my gift of love.

Take a seat in the position of father to many.

Take your place, the elevated place, the place of authority, the place of status.

Rise up and accept the new robe, the new ring, for I declare you are worthy.

You remember it, as I have engraved it upon your mind.

You pulled up to a car that you once dreamt of owning, a bright yellow Lotus owned by a lover of cars. You looked over at him with a great smile, and yet what happened next caught you by surprise, as you did not expect it. His smile was broader than yours as he gave you the thumbs up. He appreciated what I have given you more than you did.

Is this not your dream, is this not the gift that you desired?

Yet there is nothing that I desire more than my beloved’s smile.

What if she desires for you to overflow with joy?

It’s like you are working with all your might for her to be happy. Holding yourself together, the look of endurance all over your face.

Yet I came, yet I have come that YOUR joy might be full.

John 17:13 And now I am coming to You; I say these things while I am still in the world, so that My joy may be made full and complete and perfect in them that they may experience My delight fulfilled in them, that My enjoyment may be perfected in their own souls, that they may have My gladness within them, filling their hearts.

Be taken back, be taken aback….

No I don’t want to… It was the second time I cried…. Philippians 2:1-4 SO BY whatever appeal to you there is in our mutual dwelling in Christ, by whatever strengthening and consoling and encouraging our relationship in Him affords, by whatever persuasive incentive there is in love, by whatever participation in the Holy Spirit we share, and by whatever depth of affection and compassionate sympathy, Fill up and complete my joy by living in harmony and being of the same mind and one in purpose, having the same love, being in full accord and of one harmonious mind and intention. Do nothing from factional motives through contentiousness, strife, selfishness, or for unworthy ends or prompted by conceit and empty arrogance. Instead, in the true spirit of humility (lowliness of mind) let each regard the others as better than and superior to himself thinking more highly of one another than you do of yourselves. Let each of you esteem and look upon and be concerned for not merely his own interests, but also each for the interests of others.
