Why do I post personal stuff and prayers in my Good morning / Good night Jesus check-ins?
They’re not just prayers—they’re a public way to model abiding in Him. If it helps even one person follow Jesus more closely, that’s a win.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good night Jesus. It’s amazing how effective it is to not take things personally. Still a work in progress, but thanks to You, there IS progress! Dying to self is where freedom is found. Dead men hold no grudges and have nothing to prove. Abundant life is death to selfishness.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good night Jesus. Had a great prayer time tonight with others. I pray alone a lot, but there’s just something about two or three, or more gathering in Your name to just pray. Not a service. Not a singing. Just prayer. Your model prayer is plural. Us. Prayer is better together.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good morning Jesus. In eternity, the only things from today that will matter are heavenly deposits. Help me walk in love today–not worrying about earthly things but investing in eternal ones. Today’s struggles won’t matter when I see You face to face. Keep my eyes on You now!✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good night Jesus. I used to think of Your will as what I need to do. Now I know that it’s more about how and why I do all things. If not in love, all the right plans are wrong. If I’m not thankful in everything, I’m not in Your will. It’s about being like You in whatever I do.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good morning Jesus. Busy is not who I am. This morning has been different. Busy. I was beginning to feel a tinge of guilt about missing some spiritual routines. But following You is relationship, not ritual. Mercy not sacrifice. Busy is just a storm. You are the peace be still.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good night Jesus. 2 Peter clearly lays out the steps and qualities required to never stumble. Never? We are taught that’s not even possible. He said that those who lack those things are blind, having forgotten that past sins are cleansed. Open my eyes and let me see that truth!✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good morning Jesus. It’s not about what I do. It’s about who I am following You. Actions don’t change who I am. Who I am changes my actions. Your perfect love casts out the condemning fear of punishment. No condemnation is the power to go and sin no more. Hello new creature!✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good night Jesus. “You can’t turn the dark off.” After teaching tonight, someone shared how that one simple phrase changed their perspective. So encouraging when the Holy Spirit opens someone’s eyes. I can’t do that–much less take credit for it. Only You can turn the light on.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good morning Jesus. Watching online arguments among believers is troubling. My flesh wants to jump in! But why battle with people I don’t even know? The lost are watching. In my small circle, let me be an example of love for one another, not complaining about one another.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good night Jesus. I have a lot to do. It doesn’t seem possible to get it all done. That used to stress me out. But now, it’s just another reason to rely only on You, not my own abilities or power. I CAN do all things through You. Even what’s not possible. Not my will. Just You.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good morning Jesus. Well done, good & faithful servant. Hearing that in eternity starts with living it today. Your Way to good & faithful service is dying to selfishness–forsaking all to follow You. Well done is transformation. New identity–not rule keeping. Hello new creature!✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good night Jesus. We miss a lot by making it complex. Your words especially. Help me keep it simple, no matter how complex life gets. I want to love God with everything. My neighbor too. By being a loving neighbor. And make disciples. With those right, not much can go wrong.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good morning Jesus. Whenever things seem difficult, remind me that Paul was on death row when he wrote, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” My Monday challenges don’t compare, but through You I have that same resilient faith and hope. Today is a good day!✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good night Jesus. Don’t ever let me forget what it’s all about. Love! If I do amazing, seemingly spiritual things but don’t have love, it’s meaningless. Noise. The ends never justify the means if the means aren’t the self-sacrificial kind of love you modeled. Love or nothing.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good night Jesus. Storms are raging all around lately. I need some “take a nap in the boat” peace tonight. I often pray for peace for others. Encourage them to not worry but trust You. Tonight I need some miracle rest. Perfect peace. Just asking helps. I know You will provide!✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good morning Jesus. Lord, I believe, help my unbelief! That was the response of the father whose boy needed healing in Mark 9. You didn’t rebuke him for the unbelief part, You just healed the boy. That’s my prayer today. I have faith, but help where my faith is weak and tired!✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

@TrustJesusAlone It’s about transformation. Not perfection.

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good morning Jesus. Part of our Bible study this morning…be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect–Matthew 5:48. But nobody’s perfect! Then why would You say be perfect if we can’t? The context is love. Not mine. God’s love in me through You. Perfect love! Help me live it.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good night Jesus. Some seek after secret knowledge. Some focus on a deeper worship encounter. Not bad things, but not my goal. I want to know You more. Intimately. Completely. In the fellowship of Your sufferings, as Paul said. Help me count anything less than You, meaningless.✌🏼

[Hippie Preacher aka Aubrey Robertson @Aub42]

Good night Jesus. You said the weary could come to You for rest. How? Learning from You, because You are gentle and humble in heart. Maybe that’s the key. It’s never, I’m so weary from this humility! My weariness comes from trying to do it all myself, without You. Time to rest.✌🏼
