My child, your days are few, and they pass swifter than a runner, slipping past as unstoppable as a boat carried on the water, in spite of your most rigorous efforts to halt the fleeing shadow.
The world, man's works on earth, society and culture, pass away, always changing and shifting, unsatisfied and unfulfillable regardless of how much you give to it.
In Me, you have the enduring assurance of My constancy, My unchanging persistence, My eternal loving redemption, and yet never fully known in the breadth of My endless variety of expression and the depth of My spirit of continual growth and revelation.
The ungodly and impure will always resist Me, even as you did at one time. So also they will persecute you as you release the world and its ways of thinking and acting, to be transformed, day by day, renewed in spirit and mind and soul, which will endure.
They will continue to focus on the flesh, trying to preserve that which is destined to die. They have no peace, no rest, no end of striving for what will never be achieved.
Come, instead, to Me where the days you have been allotted will be spent in hard work, difficult striving, challenging growth, overcoming self, and defeating enemies, with the assurance of My comforting Spirit now and eternal satisfaction in My presence in times to come.
As you grow in faith and follow the path of righteousness, choosing to be purified through the Word and yielding to the sanctification of the Spirit, you will walk in the peace that the world can never give for the world can never know it.
But as you walk in the light, even as I am in the light, you will find that you have taken off the old self with its practices and put on the new self which is being renewed, day by day, as you learn to know Me as Savior, Healer, Comforter, Shepherd, and Master.
May you sing praise to God, your Strength, and watch for Him Who is your fortress, your loving God. Psalm 59
