A wonderful person I met in blog land told me to email Dear God letters...
In the hopes that I can get all of this off my chest and move forward...
I sent the first one yesterday...
Just a one-liner and the person I sent it to sent me a response from God that brought me to tears...
"I am here Serenity...You don't always know why something is happening but I know everything. You can't always see the tree from the forest, but I see the smallest ant in the forest and the largest galaxy in creation. You don't always see what tomorrow holds but I sculpt eternity in My hands. You don't always love yourself but I always will love you dearly. You don't always think you are special but I cherish you deeply. When you cry yourself to sleep, I sit next to you. I feel your pain and I count your tears. Nothing happens to you that I don't see, but I love you enough to let you fall sometimes. My sweet child, you are becoming a beautiful woman. Through the fire you will be purified. Through your pain, you become exceptionally beautiful to me.
Psalm 46:10 Be still and know that I am God.
I love you,
God
P.S. You might not believe me now, but you are good enough for Me. It is the world that isn't good enough for you.
There aren't words to express my gratitude for this email...This is a person who doesn't know me in real life...Just someone I met here who offered me their shoulder...Offered me words of comfort and the strength from them that I couldn't find within myself...I won't say who it was...I will just say thank you from the bottom of my heart...You truly are a wonderful friend :)
