Love letter from God....



This is something I wrote for an assignment in class; a letter from God to the non-believing world expressing His Love for them.
To the one whom Jesus Loves:
I Love you with a jealous love! Do you know how it feels knowing that you run away from me? For you to surrender yourself to the idols of this world? I tell you the truth; No one can serve two masters! You know of me but you still don’t know Me. I knock on the door but the handle to let me in is on the inside. I hear your prayers though your tears and I have kept track of all your sorrows, recorded each and every tear in my book. I hear each and every time you call out to Me, though your existence but that is all it is an existence. You still live for yourself and not for me you have not died to the flesh! Nevertheless I still love you! Oh how you needed Me in desperation but was it genuine? Do you know that I do not see as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but I the Lord look on the heart.

Is it that you don’t trust me? Know this: I saw you before you were born. That you are blessed because if you trust in me The Lord, with hope and confidence. Did you know I came so that you may have and enjoy life and have it in abundance, until it overflows? I tell you this I have a master plan for you, I even know it! A plan for good and not for disaster, I want and desire, to give you a future, dreams and hope. Yet you run from me. Honestly this breaks my heart, but I still Love you with a love you can’t comprehend!
How come you like where you are at in life and what you do? Is it because it is easy? Recognize this, what you have done and what you continue to do will lead to your destruction! I detest these things, Idols I know where they will lead you, and as a God baring individual I want to lead you so far away from them these idols of your life, This is my love for you!
And If I say “I love you!” you say I don’t believe you! Do you think it is because the suffering you have experienced in your life? Suffering was allowed in your life not because of what your parents have done or what you have done, rather it is so the power of God could be seen in you! I allow that kind of sorrow, that kind of suffering because the pain may cause you to repent and change your ways, to see your absolute need for Me! For this sorrow will lead you away from sin, and will result in salvation! For with this sorrow there is no regret! But continue to hold on to the sorrow of the world, it will consume you to the point of death, even spiritual death!
Do you hate consequences? The truth hurts, but I am a God of justice, and the wage of sin is death! It is not hopeless though! If only you knew my heart for you! Then would you run as you do? For I was sent even before you were you were in the womb, I knew who you are and who you will be! While you were still a slave to sin I counted your worth, God the father sent me, His one and only son to end the separation between you and God! If only you would believe in me for everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved! Whoever calls on my name will be saved if they just believe! This is all you must accept as true, I went and I died for your sins,I took the very punishment you your self deserved, was crucified at the cross, was buried and in three days after I was burred,I rose from the dead, yes I concurred death itself! Believe this and trust this in your heart, and declare that because of this I alone am you personal savior, bring you sins to me repent; and you will be saved! All who have eyes and ears, listen and see, you are not outside My Grace!
Let me clothe you in my righteousness!

For I alone am the way to God the Father the one and only Truth and I will lead you along the path of everlasting life! Not as an existence but with purpose!

Will you come to me?

For God says,“At just the right time, I heard you. On the day of salvation, I helped you.”... Indeed, the “right time” is now.

Today is the day of salvation.
