Does your curiosity mull over what you know of Me and seek to find out more? Is there a hunger in your heart to draw near, to search out My form and learn the details just because of Who I am?
You are always welcome in My presence, My child. I seek to draw you with My love; allow the pull of My Spirit to bring you near that you may know Me better and we may enjoy the fullness of our fellowship.
I have all that you need; I am the pattern for you to follow. Gaze on Me and learn in ever greater detail what I have to offer; receive the wisdom that will carry you through the trials of life.

Join Me in the spontaneous, restful ministry, the unstrained, loving care and compassion for those I encounter with you that meets others needs with the unfettered love of the Father.
Follow the pattern you see, My love, just as Moses did, just as My disciples do. Read of Me in My Word, pray to Me in My Spirit, walk with Me in My ministry, and learn more of Me each day as I speak to your heart, for I am always with you.
