My dear daughters,
You all already know this, but I love to tell you every day that I love being with you and meeting with you in this way. Thank you for setting aside this time with me to know me and let me know you. You are really the apple of my eye. I love you, and I want to show you more of my love for you. I long to be extravagantly loving to you. I want you to experience my goodness in the land of the living, my child. Yes I do want you here with me I want you here with me and I wait for your expectantly; that is true too. That is why I’ve gone to prepare a place for you, and I anticipate with great excitement the day you will come and be with me. But until then, I have not left you alone or lonely, my child.
You are my delight, and I want you to live like it. I know that life has been so hard at times and I remember everything that has hurt you, and I’m deeply desiring to redeem it all. I came to do just that. Don’t you know it’s not that I would, It’s that I did come for you.
And I died for you.
I want you to think about who you love so much that you would die for them. You were that to me. I love you so much that I could not stand to see what the enemy was doing to you. I could not stand the separation between us, and so I sent my one and only son for you because I love you so much. I want to be close to you, but I, my love, I am patient. And patiently I’m working with you layer after layer, lovingly walking with you through the process of learning to let me in, to let me love you because I do love you.
Love, I AM
