My Precious One,
I am the One Who put it there...that deep longing in your heart to be loved, to be fully understood and accepted, to want security and joy.
It is so easy to be led astray...that's the problem with shades of grey...you hardly even realize you've wandered from the light, until you find yourself engulfed in the darkness. In desperation you have searched for those things your heart aches for in so many places...in a relationship with a man, in your own abilities and striving for perfection, in racy novels and movies and music...there are so many shades you have lifted to look for that satisfaction and every one of them has left you in bondage. Each one has eventually turned out to be a temporary fix for your soul, a counterfeit that has been unable to live up to your expectations and satisfy that deep longing that only grows more painful with every disappointment. Dear one, are you weary from the searching?
My precious daughter, there is something you MUST know~
I placed those desires in your heart, so that you would find them in the only relationship that can provide you with a never ending abundance of love, understanding and acceptance, security and joy...so that your heart would find them in a relationship with Me, your Creator.
I wish you could see the compassion I have for you. I long for you to know how My heart is always for you...that you would grasp the potential and power and beauty I put into your soul before you were ever born!
I wish you knew how long and far I am willing to carry the heavy burdens that are weighing you down...if you only knew to what depths of hell my love has gone to rescue you...if only you could have seen how wide I stretched my arms out to demonstrate my love for you on the Cross.
But I am not so far that you can't find me. Simply turn around and you will see that I have been standing there all along...pursuing you, waiting for you, longing for you to give me your tired and tattered heart. All you have to do is ask and believe that my life was given for you...then the whole Bible will be transformed from what you may have thought was a boring ancient book, to the most amazing, time-tested, love story ever written...just for you. Once your heart has tasted my love, no other counterfeit story or novel will capture your heart...because once you know and experience the depth and breadth of My love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control...you will WANT to step out of the shade and stay in the warmth of My Light in your life.
My promise to you dear one...if you seek Me with all your heart, you WILL find me.
~Your Creator and The True Lover of Your Soul~
