When I said that I am your Counselor, I am inviting you to come to Me for counsel.
When I said that I am your Instructor, I am inviting you to come to Me for instruction.
When I said that I am your Comforter, I expect you to come to Me when you need comfort.
I have told you before that I am your Helper. I want to help. I want you to come to Me when you need help. And not for just the things that are big. Not just for the things that you cannot handle yourself. Bring everything to me. And keep bringing them to me. If a friend offers you help, then that person is expecting you to come to him for help. Come to Me.
I am your Shield. Please come to Me. Hide under the wings of the Almighty.
You need wisdom. I’ve offered wisdom to all who come and ask. I want to give to you. I am expecting you.
I am your Fortress! I am the place where you can reside in safety. I am inviting you to come and abide in your Fortress. Picture that fortress in your mind. High walls, guards, safety, and rest. Come to your Fortress.
If your best friend has said to you that they will provide guidance for you, they are inviting you to come and ask for guidance. That’s Me. I’m offering to guide you.
I am offering to be your Strength. I am inviting you to rely on My strength in your weakness. I am expecting you.
I am compassionate and show lovingkindness to those who come to me. Do not fear. Do not worry about not knowing just how to express your pain or your sorrow or your need. I can easily see the wishes of your heart, however poor your words.
“Come to me.” I invite you. The words above and that I use over and over in Scripture to describe Myself clearly send an invitation to you to come to Me. I AM whatever you need. “Come to me.”
I want you to call me “Abba.” That means “Papa.” And I can hear some of you say that you are not comfortable calling the Almighty such a personal and intimate name. Keep coming to me until you feel that close. Remember, the great I AM wants you to come to him and call him, “Abba.”
You see, I designed you to be dependent on Me. I did this so you would always see me as your Papa. I want you to walk with Me, to talk with Me, and to share with Me. I want there to be a relationship between you and Me. I sent my Son, Jesus, to die on the cross to make this relationship possible. I want you in My life and you need Me in yours.
Someday, you will pass through that great-divide. Then you will be with me. Don’t wait until then to come to me. I am there with you - today. And I will be here with you when you arrive.
