What Is Success?

Child, you think success is accomplishing goals. And your focus has been on your own created goals. Do you not know yet, I have My goals for your life?

I say success is being full of My Presence and walking in My Presence. Success is being full of My Holy Spirit. Success is fulfilling all I have called you to.

You think success is your accomplishments. But I say unto you, success is not in your accomplishments. Rather success is found as you yield yourself to My will. For I do indeed have plans for you, plans to give you a hope and a future. I have plans not to harm you, but to prosper you.

You think prosperity is abundant money, having all your needs and desires for pleasure fulfilled. But no, I tell you prosperity is peace, peace of mind, heart, and soul. Prosperity is assurance that I am with you always guiding all your steps and your ways.

True success and prosperity is knowing how much I love you.

Lord, I miss the quiet days when I was able to spend more time with You.

Child, it’s not the quiet days you miss so much. Rather it’s My Presence with you that you miss. During those past quiet days at home, you focused on My Presence. Now you’re too busy with your “to do” lists, your self-created goal lists, and Your diversions of entertainment and pleasure.

You focus on secular news and lament over what you see or hear reported. You eat for pleasure. In fact you look at and focus on many different things.

But it is My Presence you need, not your accomplishments. It is My Presence you need for fulfillment.

So Lord, what am I to do?

Come to Me, all throughout your day. Not just during your morning quiet time, but all throughout your day.

And no, I will not be another item on your “to do” list, checking off your time spent with the Lord. In fact, I want to be by your side all your days, not something on your “to do” list.

Rather I want to be your Helper, your confident and your friend, In fact, I want to be your everything. Make My Presence the center of your life.

Then you will see all the blessings I have for you instead of being frustrated over your lack of accomplishments and resenting others for theirs.

Don’t look at others ,look at Me for I will meet and fulfill all your needs. Because right now, your greatest need is peace of mind and a quiet spirit. Those can only be found in My Presence. So come to Me for I am the answer you’re seeking.

Because only I can fulfill your needs and give you a quietness within your soul, mind, and heart. That My Child, is where true peace is found, in My Presence.
