Yes, you read that right. But this letter isn’t from me to you. At least, not exactly. It is from scripture.

Dear child,

Do you know how much I love you? I see you when you feel unseen. I understand everything about you. Every thought you have, I know it. Before a word is on your tongue, I know all about it. I am aware of all your ways. 

    When you feel alone, I am with you. My love is so big and so great. I am with you no matter where you go. You may feel lost in darkness, but I am with you. If you look to me, I will guide you. I am your strength. I am your Friend. I am your Healer and Helper. I am your Comforter.

   My child, I know you. I created you. You are my masterpiece. You are wonderfully made. You are not a mistake. I created you on purpose, for a purpose. I look at you with love, not anger. 

   Nothing you do is hidden from me. Your sin does not change my love. Your flaws do not define you. Because I love you, I sent my Son to die for you. He took the punishment you should have had. You had chosen the path of death, but I redeemed you. All because I love you.

  You may have been disappointed by what the world calls love. Do not let that diminish your perspective of my love. My love is deeper than you can understand. It is greater than anything in this world.  

   My love is perfect. It will never disappoint you. My love is faithful. I will never leave you or abandon you. My love is constant and truthful. I will never deceive you. My love is abundant and good. My love provides everything you need. You do not have to earn my love. All you have to do is accept it. When you accept my love and walk according to My ways, you will begin to see what I have in store for you. I have good plans for you. Plans that give you hope and a future. My dear child, I love you.
