I just had to write to tell you how much I love
you and care for you. Yesterday, I saw you walking and
laughing with  your friends; I hoped that soon you'd
want Me to walk along with you, too. So, I painted you
a sunset to close your day and whispered a cool breeze
to refresh you. I waited. You never called. I just kept
on loving you.

     As I watched you fall asleep last night, I wanted
so much to touch you. I spilled moonlight onto your
face, trickling down your cheeks as so many tears have.
You didn't even think of me; I wanted so much to
comfort you.

     The next day I exploded a brilliant sunrise into a
glorious morning for you. But you woke up late and
rushed off to work- you didn't even notice. My sky
became cloudy and My tears were the rain. I love you.
Oh, if you'd only listen. I really love you. I try to
say it in the quiet of the green meadow and in the blue
sky. The wind whispers My love throughout the treetops
and spills it into the vibrant colors of the flowers.

     I shout it to you in the thunder of the great
waterfalls and compose lovesongs for bands to sing for
you. I warm you with the clothing of My sunshine and
perfume the air with nature's sweet scent. My love for
you is deeper than the ocean and greater than any need
in your heart. If you'd only realize how I care. I died
just for you.

     My Dad sends His love. I want you to meet Him. He
cares, too. Fathers are just that way. So please call
Me soon. No matter how long it takes, I'll wait because
I love you.


                     Your Friend, Jesus
