My Loving Letter

Posted on April 22, 2023June 3, 2023 by Waltermarks Posted in Christian Poetry

I wrote you for this moment
Scripted in eternity
I gave your life a purpose
Long before it came to be

I am your eternal author
My word is your abode
That shifting sands of time
Cannot debase or erode

An epistle of My love
Gifted to all history
Testified in my own blood
In flesh for all to see.

Blessings,
Abba

I love this letter from God–I like to think of him as Abba, how Jesus would have thought of him, I suppose. “Daddy.” “Dad”

Love these lines
“I am your eternal author
My word is your abode”
And of course the last two!

Love the form as a letter. Something written always seems so much more sincere than what’s said.

Tender words for a most loved Father. He gave our life a purpose even before we came to be, I just love that. We forget the real eternal source of the blessings in our life, thank you for the timely reminder.

Amen. How I wish we sing such life-affirming poetry in churches, not the lip service to the new-agey showbiz of Christian karaoke. (Feel free to forward this to Dad for me. Sigh.)
