Dear Daughter,

One step. I’m asking for one step. A step away from shame and condemnation. A step away from the wrong thoughts that have plagued your soul like a disease that eats the body. Your worth to me? That of the finest gold and most beautiful tapestry. I am not the One who holds an account of all you’ve done wrong. I do not keep track of your wrong decisions or misguided attempts. No! Understand! I long to take them from you, to remove them and exchange them for the good things I have for you. You want freedom? It is mine to give. You want forgiveness? I offer it - take it now! You want peace? I live in it. You want purpose? I have that too. Stop living life with no direction. Stop calling out to the pursuits that bring emptiness and want. Let go of your past and rush toward a future designed by your heavenly Father. My plan is perfect, and it is filled with that which you want- security, opportunity, peace, forgiveness, excitement, and purpose.

Do not take advice from those who do not understand My ways. Stop looking for approval from people who don’t know you like I do. You do not need the approval of man. See? This is My plan- to approve of you just as you are- broken, split apart, wanting, unsure, unrested. I take the broken vessel, and I bind it together with clay. My hands, those of the Master Potter, fill every crack, every imperfection, every source of leak - I fill the cracks and create a beautiful vessel designed to hold Living Water. Allow Me to heal you, fill the cracks, make you whole and able to be a vessel for the Living Water. If you step out and give me permission to take your hurts, disappointments, and mistakes; and if you allow Me to mend you, fill you, heal you; then you will look back on this day as a new beginning. You will see that you, yes YOU, have become a beautiful vessel filled with My goodness.

Healed. Restored. Forgiven.

Love,
God, your Heavenly Father
