Youth Unleashed

Letter From Papa….

As dawn broke through the clouds this morning, clearing the fog away and drying the dew on the ground, I began to think about YOU.  It’s something that happens all day, and pretty much everyday.  If I could count how often I think about you, it would be like hiking to the highest mountaintop at night, trying to count the stars that I see, and then continue with trying to count sand beside the shore.

I know you feel like I’m never around or can relate to you.  To the hurt that you felt when your dad said, “Goodbye”, for the last time.  Or when you got the news that your mom had passed - I know you felt like there could never be anything that could hurt that badly.  Until he or she cheated on you with your best friend.  

Try watching your love walk down the wrong path and not only changing his purpose, but the direction of mankind, and through it all, I still loved him.

The despair was too much for you to bear.   So much so, that you came to the conclusion that you weren’t meant to be loved, but to be honest, there couldn’t be anything further from the truth.

You see, My love for you started long before you did.  Before you were formed in your mother’s womb, I knew you and I sanctified you.  I fashioned your inward parts, the corkyness, the humor, the writing, the dreams, your passion, your talents, your gifts and callings, all that was Me.  I’ve been here since the beginning.

I never had thoughts of evil for you.  I knew things would happen, but through it all, I’ve had thoughts of peace, not of evil.  Thoughts of a great future, and thoughts of hope.   For you were My greatest work; My prized possession.  I would walk around and show you off to all the angels!  I was so proud, that I even set up great things for you to accomplish that would be a signal of My love for you.  But even though the first man and woman changed things a bit, it never detoured My love for you.  So much so that the highest mountain or the deepest sea couldn’t keep Me away from you.  And although sin was in the way, I had the master plan to work around it- or should I say- work right through it.  So I gave My best for just an opportunity to give you the love that you deserve.  Because “love always leaves a significant mark”, and I still have the marks that My love for you left on Me.  Talk to you soon.

 

Love,

Me aka God aka papa
