Dear Child,

I love you!

I saw you last night, crying in your pillow.

I longed that you would sense my presence.

My tearsdrops were in the rain,

gliding down your window

with concern thoughts of you.

You look so fragile, so insecure.

How I long to comfort you,

to let you know I understand.

You are so precious to me!

Your tears are precious to me too, My child.

I hold them in Heaven in bottles for you.

One day, My hand will wipe away your tears

for I am close to those of a broken heart.

***

Dear child,

I thought we'd spend the day together, just you and I.

We'll walk along the lake, hand in hand,

burying our feet in the warm, golden sand.

Your heart fills my joy with laughter.

I'm so glad I created you!

Close your eyes, My precious Child.

Feel the balmy breeze of the summer sun.

That's My love, My warm embrace, caressing you.

Enclosing you softly to Me.

***

Dear child,

Your saddened smile looks innocent, precious one.

It's delicate features lit by the golden sun,

Illuminating softly your hair.

You look like an angel walking along beside Me.

Though your eyes mist with tears of the regrets of your past failures

I love you the same as I always have.

Come closer to Me, precious child.

Surrender your thoughts, your heart,  to Me.

Nothing you can do will make Me love you more than I already do.

My love is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Let the sunlight dry your tears.

***

Don't weep dear child...

Don't linger any longer in your guilt.

Let go of your shattered dreams of yesterday.

Let the breeze carry them higher and higher from you.

Sometimes, in the wintery days of your life,

you may not always understand

how I'm working this out for your good,

that's when you have to learn to trust Me.

For everything that comes into your life,

has been sifted by My loving hand

to be used for your good, and ultimently for My glory.

Though you may not yet understand.

***

Dear child,

  You long for hands to hold you close,

arms that hug, a shoulder to cry on...

But I am real, precious child,

I am seen by faith

like the glistening, fallen snow,

that isn't seen until the morning.

So is My presence, My child.

One day your hand will touch Me.

Every knee shall bow before My presence.

Your hand will clasp My nailed scarred hand,

and I will be in intimate fellowship with you,

love so fulfilled and complete.

***

O Run ahead dear child...

look on the waters.

It is I, dancing in the sparkles, winking at you.

How I long that you would  see me.

My affections are always of you.

Tonight I will paint you colors in the sky.

With pale shades of red of My undying love.

When storm billows roll like the waves in the sea,

I am your silent companion,

unseen, unheard...but always near.

You are so precious to me.

I call out to you in the distance...

wooing you to Me, like a mourning dove

longing for its first love.

At times, I tap you lightly on your shoulder

hoping to have this dance,

but sadly see you're are taken

by the cares that call for your attention.

But I wait...cause I still love you.
