Beloved, you have been crucified with Me and are now hidden in Me. What does hidden mean? Hidden means to be deliberately concealed. Concealed means to be kept secret or out of sight…to be prevented from being found…to be covered, cloaked, or veiled. This means you are concealed by Me…cloaked by Me…covered by Me in a deliberate, purposeful, calculated and premeditated way. Your concealment was not by chance nor is it subject to removal.

Beloved, I, Christ in you the hope of glory, am flooding precept upon precept into every portion of your life. Like a bubbling fountain and an ever-flowing stream I rise up through the annals and hallways of your life to flood you with My life…to flood you with Christ-Life in the midst of life itself.

Remember this; gratefulness opens the courts of heaven as you come into My gates with thanksgiving and praise. Never underestimate the power of even a simple thank you. Why don’t you try it right now? Thank me for something…for anything you can think of and encounter a fresh release of My Presence.

Beloved, never despise the process of learning and growing up into full spiritual stature. I could have made you full-grown and fully complete, but what pleasure would that be…where would “free will” be? Where would the sacrificial love of our hearts be? I truly enjoy growing in You and in turn flowing out of you into some other grace starved life in need of love.

My beloved friend, full of grace and truth, do not move from a place of relationship and communion based on love back to any aspect of religion and law. Do not be deceived into performing in order to receive approval or love. Love is not earned. It was given once and for all through My sacrifice and that will never change. Love continues to give and give and give without expectation of repayment.
