I know well the ones you are believing for. The friends and family members who you long to see return to my flock. My love for these precious ones is a force that transforms and transcends.
Trust me as I hold them in My hands.
Trust My process as I woo them into My Heart and My Kingdom.
Trust Me as I guide them as a Shepherd herds, trains, and cares for His flock with tender mercy and a gentle hand.
Cast your fears, worries, and concerns over to Me. Rest assured that I am watching over and guiding them. You see them one way, but I see their potential because I created them for beautiful things. I intimately know their hurts and struggles.
Allow me to apply My healing balm upon them and wait expectantly for exciting changes!

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Mark 6:34 (ESV)
