Stop fighting and see My salvation

Stop Fighting and see My Salvation

Reach out for my hand, my child, and let me pull you out of the mire. My arm is not too short that it cannot save you. But if you have struggled and felt frustrated, it is because you have tried to overcome your problems on your own, instead of trusting in Me.

Look at the drowning man as an example. While he is fighting and pushing, he cannot be saved. In order for the life guard to pull him in and drag him to safety, he must knock him out, so that there is no fight left in him. In his fighting, he only gets in the way of his rescue.

In the same way my child, if you feel as if you are drowning and gasping for air, then stop fighting and allow me to pick you up into my arms. You may think that if you paddle harder and kick faster, you will be able to fight the waves that are overtaking you, but you will not.

Instead let go and allow me to lift you out of the deep. Trust that when you stop fighting, you will not sink into the deep, but that my strong arms will surely lift you to safety.
So let go now and see my salvation, says the Lord. Amen.
