A Love Letter to God

A Love Letter to God

I wrote this on June 11, 2005. It will be my first of many letters I'm sure. After 24 years of obliviously living for myself, I can't imagine how I've managed to go through life without loving my Creator this much.

Dearest Heavenly Father,

I don't really remember writing to you a letter ever. If this is indeed my first one then I want to be able to say what my heart is really wanting to say: I want to thank you for loving me first, I want to thank you for saving me from eternal separation from You. I thank You that despite my foolish ways, you still gave me a way back to Your love. Sometimes I forget how faithful You were or how great Your love is. I almost believed the lie that you wouldn't forgive me of my favorite sin. I know you remember that time because I think I almost felt you grieve over my disobedience. I am glad that You gave me the grace to come back to you like a prodigal son. You really do love me. I know that now. I am unable to say anything but thank you. I was lost but You still looked for me. And after five years, here we are together again. I never want to leave, Lord. Never again.

Your loving son,
Zeus

It is my prayer that each and every one of you who reads this may come to know the loving Father that I know, the caring God that gave everything up for me. The peace that you are looking for is only in Him.
