To my Dear Child of God,
Please know that you are loved. You are greatly adored. You are special. You are encouraged. You are seen. You are powerful. You have a sound mind. You have a future. You have a hope. You have purpose. You are secure.
Why?
Because of me. Because of your God. Because of Christ, who accepted every ounce of pain, so that he could grant every ounce of grace. Grace has been lavishly poured all over you. Do you know what this means? You are entirely secure.
I am the definition of love. I take joy in my creation. I give life. I show the way. I offer you truth.
Know this, dear child, know this:
I won’t leave you, ever.
I won’t abandon you, never.
I won’t forsake you, no way no how.
I will help you, always.
I will lift you up and exalt you at just the right time, just see.
I will hold your hand in hard times, I will.
I will guide you in all of your days, trust me.
Come. Come and receive.
Stop striving and come.
Stop trying and come.
Stop worrying and come.
Dear child of God, I love you. I won’t stop loving you.
Love Always,
Your Lord and Savior, your King of Kings, your All-in-All, your One and Only

Kelly, so glad to find you. This post! It is so good, such a needed reminder of the incredible love that God has for us…His dust bunnies. The line that spoke to me most intimately is that He will hold our hand in hard times. Oh yes, He will. I lost my Mom on November 23rd. God’s hand has been holding mine in these days. He is faithful. He is loving. He is compassionate. He is good! So nice to meet you. #FMFparty
Leah, it is so nice to meet you! Thank you so much for visiting. I love meeting new bloggers. I am so glad that the Lord has been holding your hand. It is so hard. So hard. But, you are so right, you are dearly loved. Let’s stay in touch, new dear friend and sister in Christ. I would love to get to know you more.
Oh dear (see what I did there?) this is a beautiful reminder of something I never need to stop hearing! Thank you for the words today! Stopping over from FMF. 🙂
Right? Simple words with so much truth. Simple words that we seem to forget. 😉
Wow! Great minds think alike. This reminded me of a post that I wrote during the 31 days titled “Hey You Child of God.” You can read it here: http://prayingontheprairie.blogspot.com/2014/10/hey-you-child-of-god.html?m=0
Great reminder! Especially this time of year when we are all so busy and constantly forgetting why we are even celebrating!
Loved this Kelly! Fun to see you on FMF today!
Thank you for the affirmation. All we have to do is respond to Hid invitation to COME. Lord here I come running into your arms.
