| A Love Letter To My Lord |
|
| |
Dear Lord,
From the first day I met You I can't imagine my life without You. Not only do I have eternal life in You, but each day is far better than it ever was before. You have taken me from the gutter-most to the utter-most. I think of what a mess my life was when You reached down and saved my soul.
There is no reason in the world why anyone would look down on a sinner like me and say, "Hey, I choose her!" But You did. Your grace is truly amazing. I think back and can clearly see just how far You have brought me. The changes You have made are nothing short of a miracle. The blessings you have bestowed upon this undeserving soul are mind-boggling.
When I tell people about how good You are, I can't understand for the life of me why they wouldn't want to accept Your love. Knowing You has been the greatest experience this life has to offer. How did I even exist without You? How did I ever get through a day without having the hope I now have in You?
How can I possibly say thank You enough for all You have done? I can't. But I can offer my life back to You for Your will to be done.
Thank You Lord for all You have done and for all You are going to do. Thank You for taking the punishment in my stead. Thank You that You have prepared a place for me. I long to be with You for all of eternity. But for now, help me to live each day fulfilling the plans You have for me.
I love You Lord, with all of my heart.
Sue
I write this with the hope that anyone who does not have the blessed assurance of knowing Jesus might consider what they are missing.

| Amen. Its not our works which has earned His love. But it is His predistination and His Grace alone. |

We are but a speck of dust- I use to wonder about that particular phrase when I was a small child. As an adult and hearing, knowing the Word I have come to understand what it means. All of the billions and billions of people on this earth we are but a speck in the eye of the universe. JESUS died for our sins. I cannot imagine what he went through for ALL of our sins. We, as mere mortals do not understand or comprehend the true meaning of LOVE - JESUS DOES. In saying that, I have no words that were created by man to express how much I love him. He has chosen to carry me all of my life even when I was in sin and did not realize or care about it. He CHOSE to continue to stick by me day in and day out knowing that someday I would open my eyes ans see his love and his wonders. He CHOSE to pull me out of the gutter and carry me along the narrow road to fulfill his will. HE CHOSE ME !!! Praise him for his mercy and grace, love, patience, understanding. Praise him for all that he has done and will do. PRAISE HIM FOR WHO HE IS - GOD ALMIGHTY.
I am so grateful and thankful to Him frro all he has done. I do not and never will deserve his love. What I can do is to try and imitate his love towards others and to lift his name continously in praise.
I LOVE YOU FATHER |

The LORD is my SAVIOR, COMFORTER, COUNSELOR and LOVER (HE LOVES us) of my soul, without HIM I am nothing but filthy rags ready for the fire. Without JESUS I have no life, in fact HE is my life and my salvation, before GOD I wondered aimlessly about toughts to and fro, in a void of emptiness, now I am on a perfect path set by GOD to do HIS will and to please HIM.
I love HIM because HE first love me even, at my worst, The LORD created me, HE died for me so I can live, He heals me of all transgressions, afflictions, infirmities, He protects me from all evil and HE has never forsaken me even when I was in doubt. HE has been there all my life before I was even thought of and when I was in the world doing the devils work, HE is so merciful. It is an honor, a blessing, and anointing to be HIS child, even to be able to even latch a buckle on the shoe of HIS feet. I worship, praise and bless HIS holy name JESUS, THE MERCIFUL MIGHTY GOOD SHEPERD, I love HIM and the LORD LOVES me.
My testimony!
Thank you, Sue for such a beautiful letter! GOD bless! |

I can only tell you of the Love that I felt for the first time ever about 10 years ago. Completely immersed, bathed, soaked, wrapped in a Love I never knew existed.
The frequent reoccurance of this is what draws me back when I drift away, and I can always feel in my heart truly accepted just as I am.
The only trick is that the more I give up control the deeper I fall back in Love. This is the Love that we read about in scripture and are called to spread to others. Experiencing this Love is why I'm a Christian. It is how I know He lives.

Wow is what I can say!! This really spoke to me.
Every day I wonder how such a great and loving father can love someone like me. I know my past and faults are under the blood, but we're human, we're born sinners! He even knows we will fall time and time again, but yet He still loves us unconditional. Oh I might be new at this, but I still know a little of the Bible. And I know I am not worthy to carry His sandals. He is so great, loving, powerful and yet so gentle to wrap us in His arms and carry us when needed.
Lord I love you. Forgive my blunders, forgive my sins. You are so great!! You show us love and mercy, thank you for that. Thank you for watching over us and for keeping us on 'your' path. I only pray I can keep that faith and grow even more like you every day.
I love you Lord, PRAISE YOU, PRAISE YOU JESUS!!
I love you, love (sister) April |
