The second I read this…

…my heart broke. Not that I doubted the Love of my Father God, but everyone loves to hear / read those words once in a while and I’m no different. I did not write any part of this. It is a compilation of Bible verses from both the Old & New Testaments that are presented in the form of a love letter from God to you (and me!). Each line in the Father’s Love Letter is paraphrased–summarized as a single phrase to best express it’s meaning–to send you the message that… You are loved.
