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 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
vibrant blue
sky. The wind whispers my love throughout
the treetops and spills it into the vivid
colors of all the flowers.
I shout it to you in the thunder of the great waterfalls
and
compose love songs for birds 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 any ocean and greater than any need in your heart.
If you'd only realize how I
care.
My dad sends his love.
I want you to
meet him.
He cares, too. Fathers are just that way.
So, please, call on
me soon. No matter how long it takes,
I'll wait forever.
Because I LOVE YOU.
Your Friend, Jesus
