Jesus had already succeeded, before the cross.

He is saying to you,

"You're not late.

You're right on time—

My Time.

Rest in this:

You've already succeeded in Me.

This isn’t the end.

This is the soil.

And yes,

something beautiful

is growing.

I promise you.

Drop the entire image

of the body—

The cage of the body.

And only My Spirit is left.

Only My Light.

I was pierced,

and this Light spread out,

and became You.

Your approach to life is entirely different now.

You know what you have there.

You know I am (t)Here.

Only My Perfect Will is Here.

I Love you.

QUOTES

"The most holy and necessary practice in our spiritual life is the presence of God. That means finding constant pleasure in His divine company, speaking humbly and lovingly with Him in all seasons, at every moment, without limiting the conversation in any way.

This is especially important in times of temptation, sorrow, separation from God, and even in times of unfaithfulness and sin. We must try to converse with God in little ways while we do our work; not in memorized prayer, not trying to recite previously formed thoughts. Rather, we should purely and simply reveal our hearts as the words come to us." - Brother Lawrence, The Practice of the Presence of God

"Focus on Jesus, not the storm.

Focus on Jesus, not the struggle.

Focus on Jesus, not the pain.

Focus on Jesus, not the worry.

Focus on Jesus, not the stress.

Focus on Jesus, not the past.

Focus on Jesus, not the world.

Focus on Jesus, not the distraction." - @hertrueworth via IG

Psalm 118- https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%20118&version=NIV

"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.

Let Israel say: “His love endures forever.”

Let the house of Aaron say: “His love endures forever.”

Let those who fear the Lord say: “His love endures forever.”

When hard pressed, I cried to the Lord; he brought me into a spacious place.

The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?

The Lord is with me; he is my helper. I look in triumph on my enemies.

It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in humans.

It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes.

All the nations surrounded me, but in the name of the Lord I cut them down.

They surrounded me on every side, but in the name of the Lord I cut them down.

They swarmed around me like bees, but they were consumed as quickly as burning thorns; in the name of the Lord I cut them down.

I was pushed back and about to fall, but the Lord helped me.

The Lord is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation.

Shouts of joy and victory resound in the tents of the righteous:

“The Lord’s right hand has done mighty things!

The Lord’s right hand is lifted high; the Lord’s right hand has done mighty things!”

I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the Lord has done.

The Lord has chastened me severely, but he has not given me over to death.

Open for me the gates of the righteous; I will enter and give thanks to the Lord.

This is the gate of the Lord through which the righteous may enter.

I will give you thanks, for you answered me; you have become my salvation.

The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;

the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes.

The Lord has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad.

Lord, save us! Lord, grant us success!

Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.

From the house of the Lord we bless you.

The Lord is God, and he has made his light shine on us.

With boughs in hand, join in the festal procession up to the horns of the altar.

You are my God, and I will praise you; you are my God, and I will exalt you.

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever."
