The Valley Is Not Forever

I have come near to your duty station, Even when the room is quiet and the base is far from home, I fill the silence with Myself.

Even in survivor's weight, the same Jesus who calmed storms speaks stillness to you.

When your mind races after the shift, bring Me the spinning thoughts one by one. My peace will garrison what you cannot hold.

When bitterness knocks, do not open the door and give it a billet in your heart. Bring it to Me, and I will deal with the debt.

Do not measure your worth by the last evaluation, the last mistake, or the last victory. Measure it by the cross, where I named you Mine.

This is VOL-08 training for your soul: Grieve honestly and hope fiercely in resurrection light. I speak it not as theory, but as living command. Let the Holy Spirit's golden light search you, heal you, and send you.

Take hold of this Scripture as orders: "For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal." (2 Corinthians 4:16-18, KJV). Hide it in your heart until it rises unbidden under pressure.
