My Child,

Why do you fear to share what I have given you? The enemy has lied to you, for at the root of every fear there is always a lie. You have received an accusation that you are prideful and trying to exalt yourself. Didn’t I promise you once that you would not be exalted by your own self-importance and that you would walk with me in humility? I know how to keep you humble, and I will, if you need it. Trust me in this.

Some things I speak to you are just for you, but some I give you to share. When you share what I give you, you are sharing your true self, who you are in me. There is a part of me that no one will ever see except through you. In sharing what I give you to share, you are fulfilling the purpose for which I made you.

It is not wrong to want to be known. That, too, is a lie from the enemy. I love it when you are known. I made you to be known. My purpose in all of creation was to make myself known, and there is nothing I created that does not reveal something of who I am. Your desire to be known is an expression of my image in you. That part of me that I choose to reveal in you will only be known when you are known. I will not be fully known by my children until all my children are fully known by each other. This is what eternity will be for: time for you to continually grow in revelation of me by deeper and deeper knowing of each other.

I have placed glory in you - my glory, and I long for my glory to be revealed. I love you, my precious one. Rest in my love and receive revelation of me to share with others. The more you share, the more my glory will be revealed. Never be afraid to share yourself, for that is the truest way of sharing me.

Your Father,
- God

Van, This is deep, transforming, life-giving, devil-bashing truth, presented with tenderness, clarity, and excellence. Thanks so much for writing this in the Divine first Person; my spirit received the refreshing it needed. Yes, Love seeks not its own and is not puffed up; neither is it SELF-conscious. Love makes us delighted to BE all that He created for His glory.
