Dear Child,
How are you? I mean how are you really? I know it hurt when I took that person, place, thing away from you. Don’t you know I care more about you than you can ever care for yourself? My purpose in your life is to improve your quality of living. I know it hurts sometimes when I prune you and take things away. But trust Me when I tell you, in the long run, I have your best interests in My Heart. My love as a Parent must include denying you the very things which you think you want but I know you don’t need. My love for you includes protecting you even from your own self-indulgence and selfish desires.
My love for you will not allow Me to willfully give you the very thing which will hurt you and keep us from developing a deeper and more loving relationship. Trust me, beloved child, when I tell you I have your best interests in mind.
I am the Author and Finisher of your faith. If you let me, I will give you the full preview of the grand life I’ve written for us to share. Just trust me to write out the villains and bad plot lines satan tries to put in your book. Son, Daughter, giving Me free reign in your life does mean you will sacrifice things and even people. But I have promised to replace everything you walk away from for My sake. Live for me and I will give you the desires of your heart according to My riches in Glory. Your obedience is better than your sacrifices. I know your obedience comes at a price: it’s uncomfortable, sometimes even down right painful. Remember, I was crucified for you. I died for you. I know the self crucifixion of your flesh is no easy task. But I love you more and more each and every moment. For I’m watching you persevere through the sacrifice. I’m smiling when you push past the pain of separation from your old self and move into a brand new you. A new you who resembles Me more and more everyday.
Beloved, keep moving towards me knowing I have you in the Palm of My Hand, shaping and molding you into the most perfect *you* you can be. Trust me. My thoughts and ways are so much higher than your thoughts and ways. You know what you want. I know what you NEED. I love you. With a love everlasting!!
Always, Your Abba Father (Heavenly Daddy)
