Letter from Jesus
My Dear Friend:
How are you? I just had to send you this letter
to tell you how much I love and care about you. I saw you yesterday as you
were walking with your friends. I waited all day, hoping that soon you'd
want me to walk along with you, too.
As evening drew near, I painted you a sunset
to close your day and whispered a cool breeze to refresh you, and I waited.
You never came. Oh yes, it hurt Me, but I just kept on loving you.
As I watched you fall asleep last night, I longed
to touch your brow. I spilled moonlight upon your face, trickling down your
cheeks as so many tears have. Again I waited, but you didn't even think of
me. I wanted so much to rush down so we could talk. I have so many gifts
for you.
The next day I exploded a brilliant sunrise into
glorious morning for you. But you awakened late and rushed off for the day.
You didn't even notice Me. My sky became cloudy and my tears were the rain.
Oh, how I LOVE YOU!
Today you looked so sad and so alone. It makes
my heart ache because I understand. My friends let Me down and hurt Me many
times too. Oh, if you'd only listen. I really LOVE you. I try to say it in
the quiet of the green meadow and in the vibrant blue sky. The wind whispers
my love throughout the treetops and spills it into the vivid colors of all
the flowers. I shout it to you in the in the thunder of the great waterfalls,
in mountain streams, and I compose love songs for birds to sing for you.
I warm you with the clothing of my warm sunshine
and perfume the air with nature's sweet scent. My love for you is deeper
than any ocean and greater than the biggest want or need you may have. If
you'd only realize how much I really care.
We will spend eternity together in heaven. I
know how hard it is on earth. I know because I was once there. I really want
to help you.
My Father cares for you and wants to help you,
too. Fathers are just that way. So please, call on me soon. Just call Me,
ask Me, talk to Me. It is your decision. I have chosen you. No matter how
long it takes, I'll wait forever because I LOVE YOU!
Your friend,
Jesus
