Letter to my God

Thank you God for sending your son to pay the price for us. I will never know the pain went through for me, but it is the greatest love story I have ever known. You loved me so much that you didn’t want to spend eternity without me. I love you, I thank you. I can think of nothing better than running on those streets of gold and a hug, a warmth burning brighter than the sun, a joy, a peace greater than being able to spend forever with you. All have fallen short of the glory of God, we forget that you are a gentleman and you let us live, you hurt with us, you hold us when we are afraid you teach us and you bring us back when we wander off and fall down. I don’t have lifes answers, but you do.  And I put my faith in you. My God Lives! Help me make my life into something pleasing to you. Help me forgive myself and others. Help me see the way I need to go. Guard my lips, my mind and my actions. I want to be a light I want to be loved and cared for by you. I’ve fallen so low by my own ways, I have wandered away and broken down. But you are the good shepherd and you have come after your lost lamb. You pick me up and walk me back,  you calm your little lamb as she kicks and yells. She fights you on the walk back, but hold her tight, she loves you. Help her, she feels safe in your arms. Sing her to sleep, tell her you love her. Your love makes her still, your love heals, your love forgives, your love brings joy. Your love gives life. You are my God, you are my love, I will soak up your light and live in your love. I will be still and let you do your work.

I love you, Amen.
