Note From God

 I was there the day you were born

 And I gave you special gifts to last a lifetime.

 I touched you, made you smile,

 Helped you grow and watched you take your First step.

 I even reassured you that every

 Thing would be okay when you lost your first tooth.

I saw you off on your first day of school...

 And I lingered by your side the whole day.

 I was there to console you every

 time you cried and I held you every

 time you fell and scraped your knees.

 I was there every day all through the

 years and I always strived to give you direction.

 I helped you every step of the way

 into adulthood, bringing you daily

 gifts of inspiration, hope and love.

 And I gave you trials so that you

 could grow into the warm and

 beautiful person that you are...but I

 never abandoned you to them.

  I’ve never for a single second, turned

  My back on you when you needed

  Me - even when you thought that

  you didn’t need Me.

  I heard you every time you spoke

  and I answered every prayer though sometimes... for your best

  interest, I didn’t answer them the

  way you hoped I would.

 I’m still with you through your joys,

 your hopes, your tears, your

 dreams... through the bad day, the

 good days - through every day of your life.

 And I will be there in the end to

 give you comfort and see you safely

 home where you will sit beside Me

 in all the glory of heaven.
