A Letter To God From My Unbroken Heart

Dear God,

You've shown me incredible pain, only to give me more incredible strength.  For this I am grateful.  Thank you for blessing me with this beautiful life.  I've felt the greatness of your love through my parents, my grandmothers, Chris, my family and friends who've walked with me through rain and sunshine, and even strangers. 

When I was lost and alone, you hugged me tightly.  When it was dark, I felt your warmth.  When I fell the other day, you kissed my head as my father did when I fell from my bicycle when he taught me to ride.  I saw your beauty in the dandelion I made a wish on yesterday, I heard it in the words of a stranger, and smelled it in the sea air.

Because of you, I know my heart is unbreakable, because you made it wholly with your love, which is untouchable.  Because of you I know I am never alone.  Because of you I know not fear.

I pray my mother sleeps peacefully knowing I live with her love.  I pray my father sleeps peacefully knowing I live with his wisdom.  I pray my brother sleeps peacefully knowing I'll never leave him. 

I pray all my loved ones know your love, too.  I pray my enemies find peace in their hearts. I pray that those who hunger get bread, and those who have bread feel hunger.

I've learned to live in your time, and throughout my time on earth I will honour your love in what you've so blessed me with.  May those who come to me always feel your love, which is my blood.

BIG LOVE & HUGS

Love,

Justine
