It’s been awhile
since I’ve blogged about anything in my life and though t it was time to be
honest and vent out some of what I’ve been feeling.
It’s not
easy to be in your early 40’s and single, especially when most of my friends
are married or have significant others to share in their lives. I’ve been honored and blessed to have awesome
friends and family who have been by my side through it all…thank you! I love you!
I’ve learned
that no matter how people treat me it’s not up to me how they feel about me or
how they are feeling, it’s up to me how I react and what I do with it. I need to begin to lean on Christ again for
strength through each and every day. I
hope you will pray with me that as I find my way I continue to seek Christ to
provide me with the strength that only he can provide…
But he said to me, “My grace is
sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore, I
will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may
rest on me. ~2 Cor 12:9
I found the
following poem online today and it lifted my spirits. I hope as you read it you will also find the
encouragement I found!
Love ya…mean
it,

My Precious
Daughter (A love letter from God to His Daughters)
My precious daughter, I will never leave you, I will never forsake you, I will be faithful until the end, You are more than just “my daughter “You are my princess, My beloved, my delight, I rejoice in you, You are beautiful, You shine with light, You have dove's eyes, I rejoice in you with singing, I will quiet you with my love, Hold you in my arms, Never let you go, For you are never alone, You never have been alone, I've been with you all along, Your whole life,
I understand your pain, My sacrifice wasn't for nothing, Let me tell you I understand your confusion, I understand your anger and frustration, I understand your tears, And I care, Very much, For you, Everything that is important to you, Is important to me too, My love for you will never end, I will not leave you for another, I will not abandon you ever, No matter how far you go, My love will never end.
I have examined you heart, I know everything about you, When you sit down or stand up, I know your thoughts, Even when you are far away, I see you when you travel, Or when you rest at home, I see the tears that fall from your eyes, I see the heartache in your home, Believe me I know the lies, I know the temptations, But I am here, I know what you are going to say, Even before you say it. I go before you and follow, I place my hand of blessing on your head, such knowledge is beyond comprehension, it is too wonderful for you to understand, you can never escape from my Spirit, and you can never get away from my presence! If you go up to heaven, I am there; if you go down to the grave, I am there. If you ride the wings of the morning, if you dwell by the farthest oceans, even there my hand will guide you and my strength will support you.
You could ask the darkness to hide you, And the light around you to become night, But even in darkness you cannot hide from me, To me night shine as day, I made all the delicate, inner parts of your body, I made your heart, I know what makes you hurt, I know what makes you cry, I know what makes you tick, I know when breaks your heart the most, And I know how to comfort you, I know how to make you smile, I know how to love you, I know how to be a daddy who loves, Such a beautiful daughter like you, You long for acceptance, When you were already accepted into my family, You are fearfully and wonderfully made, I love you more than you know, I will fill your heart with the love and peace you long for, I saw you before you were born, I knit you together in your mother's womb, Even then I loved you, And I was proud of you, And I thought of you as my beautiful daughter, my princess, Every day of your life is recorded in my book, Every moment was laid out, Every moment that would bring you joy, Every moment that would bring you pain.
My thoughts about you are precious, They cannot be numbered, They outnumber the grains of sand, And when you wake up in the morning, I am still with you, I love you more than you know, You are beautiful to me, Even though you feel something is always wrong, Just look into my eyes, See how I see you, A beautiful princess, With beautiful eyes that shine with my love and my light, I love you, And I will say it again, I love you, My princess, my beloved, My precious daughter,
I love you, I love you, and I love you.
Don't give up, For I see the brokenness in your families, In your friendships, I see the pain in your eyes, Your beautiful heart, That used to be so filled joy, Is now crushed beneath your burdens, But you're still beautiful to memos beautiful to me, I will heal you and restore you once again,
My precious daughter, I will never leave you, I will never forsake you, and I will be faithful until the end,
Faithful until the end…
