I see rain falling on the rolling waves of an ocean.  And I hear thunder and I see lightning.  And I hear God say - don't look at the waves.  Look up at the rain.  And I see suffering and great joy, both being experienced at the same time.
And I see a shirt being ironed on an ironing board and the iron is very hot and steam is shooting out the sides.  And I hear God say - Iron out your differences.  My love has great power to remove every offense and every wrinkle.  By keeping your eyes on Me and allowing Me to apply heat to your life and your circumstances, I will be exalted.  If you will determine in your hearts to go very low and move forward with a lowly heart and humble submission, you will give Me room to move in every situation.
And I see a great, old locomotive moving slowly and powerfully down the track.  And God says - you're right on time!  What I plan is moving forward with great force and nothing will hinder this.  The only question is - will you continue to remain in My plan?  The further along it moves, the more will be required of you.
Stay in the "bubble" of My glory and Presence that surrounds you.  Stay in Me.  React in love.  And from this place will I use you.
