Because You Are Very Special To Me

Because you are very special to Me,
I wanted to do something for you so you would consider Me.
So, I came down from on high to deliver you, leaving My home in bright glory.

Because you are very special to Me,
I wanted you to know Me for yourself, to know Me personally.
So, I had My words recorded to enlighten your heart regarding My life-changing story.

Because you are very special to Me,
I left a loving legacy that you would emulate My life of charity.
So, I humbly healed the hurting, helped the helpless, showing My heart is full of mercy.

Because you are very special to Me,
I wanted to demonstrate My care for you in a way so you would love Me.
So, I gave Myself for you, to take away your sin, I shed my blood for you at Calvary.

Because you are very special to Me,
I have made arrangements that with Me you may forever be.
So, I have gone away to prepare a place, I will come again to carry you into eternity.

Because you are very special to Me,
I wanted to be ever close to your heart and mind, be there for you truly.
So, I had to go to My Father that My Spirit would come to guide you continually.

Because you are very special to Me,
I wanted you to be a part of My world-changing, life saving ministry.
So, I have endowed, empowered you by grace to lift up My name to draw others to Me.

I have done all of this, because you are very special to Me.

Since thou wast precious in My sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life. Isaiah 43:4

Inspired by my love for all Christ has done for me and by Anna Grace who gained my attention one day by saying,”Daddy, I wrote something for you. It makes you very special to receive this.”

She held up for my viewing a piece of paper with orange and red doodles and squiggles made by her industrious tiny hands from the creative energy and love in her three-year-old heart. She was right, I felt very special to receive it.
