We are all made in His image and so like us, He likes to hear from those He loves often.

Lord, my words are not enough to praise You. You have given me so much. You have taken that which was worthless, And given it great value; For You ransomed my soul with the very blood, Of Your Own precious Son. What greater value hath anything, Oh Lord, Than that for which The King of Kings would, So willingly lay down His life. You have loved me more than anyone else ever could, Even when I loved You not. I'm sorry that I hurt You, Lord. Even now that I know You well, Sometimes I hurt You still, and I'm sorry. Because of You I am no longer worthless. I fell from Your Grace and wallowed in sin, guilt and shame, But You, My Lord, lifted me up and cleansed me from all unrighteousness. You held me close to Your heart and forgave me, For everything I ever did to hurt You. I love You, Father. Thank You, for loving me so much. AMEN

I see you haven't written a word since this poem in May my friend, I wonder if I can find you in the sea of despond where I have been rolling with the waves? I hope you are well my friend, I have missed you so much. I just came back today, I know life can get to be like a tumultuous sea in storm, and I have been there myself over the past few months. I will be praying all is well my dear friend and hope to see you on here again soon.
