I wanted to write to you this day to let you know I will never leave you nor forsake you. I have never left you, not even in your darkest moment. I hold you close and I have been with you from the very beginning.
Can you remember when you were at junior school and the teacher asked you to learn to tie your own shoe laces? You sat on the curb of your street alone, you were always alone, but I never left you not even then.
It was Autumn can you remember? My Son was smiling down upon you and I sent a small gust of warm wind and all the leaves the colours of gold, green, brown and red showered over you much to your delight. You tried to capture them with your tiny hands but I blew on them, you giggled, even in the midst of your loneliness.
You looked around to see if there was any one to play with you but there wasn't. You looked for a familiar adult face to come and show you how to do your shoe laces, but there was none. This task had to be done for the next day, so you sat with grim determination looking at the long strings you had to turn into a butterfly. I saw you My child, as you tried and tried again. I saw your frustration yet you persevered. I saw as you looked again to see if there was anyone who noticed you. My darling child I noticed you! I always see you, I never left your side and I will never leave you, not ever.
Oh my child I was so proud of you when you managed to turn those two long shoe laces into two butterflies on your feet! You were overjoyed and so was I! Did you know I sat on the curb with you? Yes, I sat down with you. I do not tower over like human adults do to intimidate. I sit down next to all of my children, interested in all of their ordinary tasks. They are important to me!
I saw the excitement on your face, your beautiful face, which I created in My likeness. You looked around again to share your joy with someone but there was no one. Yet My child I was there right with you all the time! My child I am writing to remind you of just how much I love you and that I keep My promises.
Can you remember when you went through that horrible depression and you fell down walking your dog? Oh how you stumbled! The ground was hard and unyielding. Your heart was already torn in two by those who you thought loved you. I helped you get home and there was your favourite cake waiting for you, bought by your daughter's friend. That was Me my sweet beloved.
It grieved me that no one from your church came to visit you when you were sick so I sent My other children instead. For you see, not everyone who goes to church is Mine beloved. These things never surprise Me, but I know it grieved you and you could not understand it.
Can you remember the time when you had that awful ear infection? Three days you suffered alone. But My daughter I sat with you day and night holding you in my arms. That was Me my darling child. I helped you unblock many emotions with all those tears, emotions that had been trapped. I helped you to cry.
Did you know I cry too? Most people see me as a God who has no emotions, this is such a lie and couldn't be further from the truth. I created emotions, I created tears to be released both for joy and sadness.
My child take these words of mine to heart, for I am True and Faithful. I love you My child and never forget I keep all of My promises.
I will never leave you nor forsake you, all My love Jesus
