letter challenge: day 2
as i was thinking about what to write, this phrase came to me: “I see you”. i feel like God’s saying.. I see you, ______. I have held you in my heart for eternity long. I have never lost track of you, or brushed your prayers aside because I had something else I needed to do. I have heard your every cry of desperation and anger/frustration, and I have not ignored them, because I have felt your pain and I have not forgotten. I created you, and your life is never off-track. you are exactly where I want you to be - close to My heart. there’s nothing I enjoy more than listening to you.
i saw the colour green, and this peace just washed over me… and i was reminded of Psalms 23: “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul..” Daddy’s always taking care of you, even though it may not seem like that sometimes…
then 1 Samuel 3 came to mind.. where Samuel gets up 3 times because he thought Eli was calling him..and he was ready for whatever he thought Eli needed him for.. and i feel like that’s very similar to you, you’re always ready to jump in and help do whatever’s needed..but i feel like God’s saying He loves that, but it’s ok to step back sometimes too, because He doesn’t want you to burn out. everything will work itself out.
