You feel yourself separate. You fear yourself small. You see the world as large and threatening. I tell you, you are wrong. You are a part of me and I am very large. You are as large as you need to be to face your problems. You are larger than you know. Name your problem and bring it to me. Already, it is smaller. I am larger than your cares, larger than your woes. I am almighty, infinite, all reaching. Nothing that you bring to me overwhelms me.

It is all a matter of perspective. To me, you are large and your problems are small. You are what I am focused upon. You are the point of my loving concern. I am an in-finite power. I have all the strength, all the wisdom, all the grace you need. Nothing you bring to me is too much for me. It gives me joy to grapple with your difficulties. I delight in solving your problems. Your difficulties are my toys. It is child's play for me to untangle your life. I take pleasure in helping you.

For me, you are never separate, never small. I made this world as my gift to you. It is my joy when you enjoy it, when you feel safe and secure. This is my intention for you always. Take comfort in me as your creator and your protector. You are my own.
