You trust in other people. You tell your friends your deepest secrets and trust that they will keep them safe. |
You put your trust in things everyday. Whether its when you sit down on a chair and trust that it will hold you up, or when you go for a car ride and trust that you'll get where you are going safely.
Trusting in things is a way of life.
What if someone told you that there was someone that you could put all of your trust in. Someone that will never let you down. He will never tell your secrets to anyone. He will stick with you through anything! There is NOTHING that you could do to cause his love to go away. He will never leave your side. He will always be there when you need him. He knows you better than you know yourself. He knows exactly what to say and when to say it. He brings you joy. He feels your pain, your sorrow. He sees you as beautiful and perfect. He's a best friend.
Sounds to good to be true doesn't it?
It is true! His name is Jesus.
This is a letter from http://www.fathersloveletter.com/text.html . It is all from the Bible. This letter is from your Beloved Father to you.
My Child,
You may not know me, but I know everything about you. I know when you sit down and when
you rise up. I am familiar with all your ways. Even the very hairs on your head are
numbered. For you were made in my image. In me you live and move and have
your being. For you are my offspring. I knew you even before you were conceived.
I chose you when I planned creation. You were not a mistake, for all your days
are written in my book. I determined the exact time of your birth and where you would live.
You are fearfully and wonderfully made. I knit you together in your mother's womb.
And brought you forth on the day you were born. I have been misrepresented by
those who don't know me. I am not distant and angry, but am the complete expression of love.
And it is my desire to lavish my love on you. Simply because you are my child and I am
your Father. I offer you more than your earthly father ever could. For I am the perfect
father. Every good gift that you receive comes from my hand. For I am your provider
and I meet all your needs. My plan for your future has always been filled with hope.
Because I love you with an everlasting love. My thoughts toward you are countless as the sand
on the seashore. And I rejoice over you with singing. I will never stop doing
good to you. For you are my treasured possession.
I desire to establish you with all
my heart and all my soul. And I want to show you great and marvelous things.
If you seek me with all your heart, you will find me. Delight in me and I will give you
the desires of your heart. For it is I who gave you those desires. I am able to do
more for you than you could possibly imagine. For I am your greatest encourager.
I am also the Father who comforts you in all your troubles. When you
are brokenhearted, I am close to you. As a shepherd carries a lamb, I have carried you close
to my heart. One day I will wipe away every tear from your eyes. And I'll take away
all the pain you have suffered on this earth. I am your Father, and I love you even as I love
my son, Jesus. For in Jesus, my love for you is revealed. He is the exact representation
of my being. He came to demonstrate that I am for you, not against you. And to tell
you that I am not counting your sins. Jesus died so that you and I could be reconciled.
His death was the ultimate expression of my love for you. I gave up everything
I loved that I might gain your love. If you receive the gift of my son Jesus, you receive me.
And nothing will ever separate you from my love again. Come home and
I'll throw the biggest party heaven has ever seen. I have always been Father, and will always
be Father. My question is…Will you be my child?
I am waiting for you.
My Child…
Love, Your Dad,
Almighty God.
Not only is He your friend. He is your father, your God, and your Beloved. He is.
