MESSAGE "I Am Your Nightlight"

"Hold nothing back.



*******


If it is in your hand ... in your power .... to do good, then do it with all your heart ... with all your being ... with all your might. 
Give it all you got. 
Hold nothing back.



For what will it profit a man (a woman) if he gains the whole world ... and (then) loses his soul? 
What is gained by *saving* something then? 
It will be of no use at that time. 
If it is useful NOW ... then it can, and should be, made available.


If it is your power, your authority, to help someone .... to alleviate someone's suffering ... (or) to offer assistance, then so be it! 
Do it ... give it all your strength!


Take a chance ... take a risk ... dare to try! 
Nothing ventured, ... nothing gained, so says the saying. 
Without a sense of adventure, of pioneering ... there would be stagnancy and hum-drum, stifled life. 
There would be a sense of apathy, of death, of despair. 
Do not *settle* for less. 
Go on. 
Go out there. 
Try! 
TRY!



If you fail, at least an effort was attempted. 
If nothing is changed, then try (it) again ... perhaps (in) a different way.


-pause-


Without a vision ... without a goal ... My people (will) perish ... they will *run dry* ... they will (be) deadened ... stifled .... held back ... stunted in (their) growth. 
They will be (as) parched gardens, withering in the sun and drought. 
No growth = death.


Let your light shine ... let it be seen upon a hill ... shine bright for ME! 
I will provide (offer) the necessary *oil* for your lamp(s). 
I am your light.

-

I will be near to you, as you come closer to Me.-
-pause-



The more light you have ... the clearer your destination becomes.

I will be a light unto your path. 

I will lead you through the gloomy, treacherous, dark times in your lives. 

I will be your *night light*. 

I will comfort ... I will be with you.


I do not compel (force) anyone to come near Me. 
I draw (you) towards Me...but not against your will. 
I have given every man (woman) free will....it is your choice.


I cannot force feed you My Word ... I will not be a tyrant, not a dictator. 
I desire freely-given love. I do not want robots. I do not want automatons worshiping Me. I do not want clones or empty shells to adore Me.


*******


I want real love ... true allegiance ... heart-felt loyalty .... candid emotions. 
I am Truth ... so I call My followers (to) also be (in) truth. 
They that worship Me must do so in *spirit and in truth*.



I call out to you ... to all. 
I whisper ... I cry out in the winds ... I am showering you with My presence. 
I am sending out a *search party* for you. 
YES. 
FOR YOU. 
I am not willing that anyone should perish without Me. 
I am calling YOU.



Hello? 
Hello .... come to Me ... let Me be your Friend ... your Saviour ... your Lord ... your confidante ... your closest associate. 
I will 'perfect' that which concerns you ... I will carry your burdens.


-pause-


Begin to believe.
