| A letter to my Dearest Freind... |

I have the dearest friend who knows nothing of Jesus or His loving grace. I have been witnessing to her for the past 2 years and trying to show her the love and grace of Jesus. She recently, just like the woman brought before Jesus, fell in her marriage. I feel nothing but love and grace towards her. It just makes me angry to see how Satan sets people up to stumble in marriages, watches them fall, then accuses them after they do. Satan has no grace, just guilt and condemnation. Where is the LOVE? There is none when it comes to the great accuser.
I love this woman...I want to see her successful...I WISH she would get how He loves her too....She so beats herself up. She feels like a horrible wife and mother. I wish she could see what I see. I wish she could see what I see with her eyes. I wish she could see the accomplished, smart, intelligent, loving, caring wife and mother, employee, and professional, who balances and pleases. Who nurtures and provides, who cares and loves. Who is beautiful inside and out. I wish she could see her worth to society, her friends, and her family. The world is not the same without her presence, she adds something unique. She goes above and beyond. I wish she knew that to her soul. I wish she knew she was worth more than the paycheck she brought home or the pleasure she brings in the bedroom. I wish she knew she was worth more than the tears she wipes from her childrens eyes, or how she assists her customers in the professional world. I wish she knew how valuable her friendship was to me. I just wish she really got her importance to this world.
I wish she realized that in making a difference in my life, in her childrens life, in the everyday peoples lives who she touches, in her husbands life that in just doing that, in empowering us, it spreads....then we make others lives better and it is because of her influence we can then influence others...her influence becomes global....see isn't that key...isn't that what great men and women do? Affect others globally by affecting the people in their lives directly and those people then affect others...See we may only come in contact with 10 people today but if those 10 come in contact with 10 each then indirectly you have touched 100....
Dear friend it is NOT the one thing you have done wrong...but the 100's of things you have done right...day after day time after time....You must learn to forgive...not someone else but first yourself in the mirror...the one your hardest on. Treat yourself like you do those sweet little children you love so much....give yourself the respect and love and courtesy you give those children of yours then you will heal...and most of all learn to lean on those big strong arms of the Great Redeemer who loves you more than you can ever imagine....He created you, has every single hair on your head numbered, made your precious heart, has been there with you alongside you all along...most of all invite Him in ...he is not your enemy or the accuser He is your friend....and the best lover you will ever have....In Him, always pulling for you....Lori |
