The History: A couple of years ago, I started journaling my prayers and God's responses to them. I told my friends about this, they were really interested. I told my Pastor about it and he said, how about sharing those on line. When I asked God, He said, my words are for you, but not just for you. And, here we are...I hope He speaks to you in these words.

Snow...

My prayer:
My God, Father, King of all Kings, maker of everything.  It is so crazy to think that you, as great and unthinkably amazing as you are, love me, care about me, died for me.  I think that is why it is so hard for many of us to come to you in the first place.  It doesn't make logical sense that you, being you, would care about me.  I am a tiny speck.  I am nothing really.  Why would you care?  Why would you die for me?  And yet, I know it is true.  You tell me in so many ways. 

Maybe it is because I don't have my own children that it is hard for me to understand.  Maybe if I had my own kids I would understand better the love that comes from creating a person.  Maybe I would better understand that mother's or father's love that cannot be denied.  Maybe it is easier for people with kids to understand and believe that you love them no matter what. Not because of anything they have done but because they exist and because you created them.  Maybe. 

I may not understand it fully but I believe it.  There would be no reason for you to lie to me about something like that.  You tell me in so many ways how you love me.  I appreciate every one of them God.  Because I have a hard time understanding that kind of love, I need to hear that you love me frequently.  I need to see it.  I need to experience it.  Without those reassurances, I can begin to doubt.  I am sorry for my weakness God but you say it is in our weakness that you are made strong.  Be strong in me God.  

What God Said Tonight:
I am your strength.  I am a strong tower that you can run to.  I am more powerful than any force in the universe and I am on your side.  I will always fight for you.  I will always strengthen you. 

I do love you more than I can tell you.  I love you so much it is like a white blanketing snow that covers everything else.  The shapes underneath the snow are blurred until it becomes one soft pure white expanse.  That is what my love is like.  The details, the actions, the sins, the shape of your life becomes blurred in that blanket of love.  It is covered in my love for you until it is pure, white and holy. 

I love you to the end of time, covered in my blood and protected by my strength.  Rest tonight in complete assurance of my love.  Face tomorrow in the same assurance.  My sweet daughter, you are so precious to me.  Rubies pale in comparison.  Gold is a poor and clouded reflection of your worth.  Diamonds cannot begin to sparkle enough to show off your worth.  I love you with all that I am.
