I see you . .
.
I know you .
. .
I love you .
. .
You are the
apple of my eye, the center of My Being.
I remember
the day you were a blotch of nothing waiting to be a something. A lifeless form awaiting the Hand of the
Designer. I took my time as I molded each part of
you. Your hands and heart, your legs and
ears, your mind and personality, your temperament. I put a part of Me in you. Everywhere you are I Am.

My thoughts
of you are as endless as the sand on the seashore. You are my child, my creation, my
design. You are my bright, shining star
and my love for you is everlasting.
How I long
for you to know Me.
I see how you
turn away from Me to other things. I
watch you seek love in loveless, fickle beings instead of me. I see you searching the garbage dump for
hidden treasures, trading beauty for filth.
My heart breaks each time I see you wander from one empty moment to
another.
Do you know
that from the beginning of time I knew you would irreversibly turn away from
me? But that didn’t stop me from
devising the most unbelievable and shocking plan the heavens have ever seen. No one was more astounded than the angels at
My grand design - the God of the Universe laying down His life for the ones He
created. And I did it - without
reservation - for you!
Why? Because I’m crazy about you. I’m smitten with you. I want you as My own. This love I have for you has no bounds and
knows no limits. The depth and breadth
and height of my love is beyond your comprehension. The only other love you have ever experienced
has been limited, minute and insignificant but my love transcends all other
love.
But it is
your choice to accept or deny.
You may know
about this extravagant gift of love. You
may have even have accepted my gift. But
I feel you holding back. Afraid. Apprehensive. Unsure.
What will this God ask of me, you wonder? What will He require?
I see you
comparing, judging, holding me up to the light of others who have loved you and
let you down, who’ve broken their promises and abandoned you.
Remember . .
.
I love you
with an everlasting love.
You are My
most treasured possession.
I long for
you to Want Me. Know Me. Come to Me.
Surrender your very being to Me. For in the surrendering you will find
life and in the knowing you will discover freedom.
Will you open
the door of your heart to my love? Will
you step into an intimate, take-your–breath-away love relationship with the One
who knows you best and loves you most?
I’m waiting.

son, threw his arms around him and kissed him. Luke 15.20
