Hello Pastor John.
I wanted to send you this “letter” or “poem” that I recieved from the Lord about two nights ago. I was laying in bed and out of nowhere I heard this voice just sweetly speaking to me. I had been asking God to keep me close and to keep my mind on him through the different things he had been showing me about myself lately and while drifting to sleep that night he started to speak to me. I laid there for a while thinking that I was drifting off into a dream but soon realized that the words were not mine they were being spoken to me. The feelings were so solid and sweet and comforting – I felt sooo much love in my soul – It was like I was wrapped up in a blanket made of God’s comfort!! I got up and thought, “I have to write this down!” I didnt want to forget the words that he was saying to me – I knew they were encouragement for me. So having said that here is what he said to me:
Listen Closely – There is something that I need to show you.
Now you know that I love you
And I want nothing more than for you to make it home
But without this correction your face will not make it before my throne
So take it in – I want nothing more than for you to come home
So many things I have to show you about yourself – And if you will let me, I will hold your hand through it all.
I will increase your wealth as you grow
I hope you know I am here for you
Now listen closely to what I have for you
You have pride and you have hurts, these things you got not from Me.
But if you lay it all before Me, I will help to make you free
Betray yourself and submit – I will help show you who you ought to be
For I am not hard – it is so easy
If you submit My love will make you free
Your heart will grow and you will know your place is always with me
Let me walk through your door
Pour out your soul and I will come rest with you
I feel so encouraged and so thankful for the experiences that Jesus sends my way. After that experience, I felt renewed. It touched my heart when I re-read this because all throughout the message, he kept telling me how much he loves me and how much he wants me. I want to throw it all out before him. I want him to know every inch of my heart and to rip anything up by the roots that is not supposed to be there. I know that is where my saftey is.
This was just very sweet to me and I wanted to share it with you..

Thank you so much, B! That is special, for Jesus to encourage a young person like that! I hope you always feel how true his feelings are for you.
