Dear Jesus

The way you do things sometimes makes me feel things I’ve never felt...
I feel so close to you when you tell me things, that it's hard not to break down wherever I am at the time...
just the slightest glimpses that you give me of yourself has made me fall so deeply and madly in love with you over the years of precious life you have given me...
I know my words will never truly express how amazing your love is, but I just want to scream about you sometimes to the world...
I’m sick of walking on eggshells and being politically correct about you...

YOU are my friend

my Father

my Savior

my Lord

my Master

my Creator

my Rock

my everything...why should I have to sit quiet because I don’t want to offend somebody, when really I could be saving them?
in most ways, you are more real to me than the friends and family I see everyday...
sometimes I feel bad because I talk to so many other people in this world instead of spending time with you...
I’m so sorry for anything and everything I’ve ever done against you...
please help me be a light to those in need of one...
you alone are enough for me, and the fact that I have breathing lungs, a beating heart, a mind that understands, and a soul to do with what I please makes me so thankful to be in your presence right now...


thank you for blessing me with today...


thank you for my friends...

thank you for my laughs...

thank you for my family...

thank you for my talent...

thank you for my husband that I haven't married yet, keep him safe and close to you...

thank you for my kids...for making sure they have 10 fingers and 10 toes...

thank you for my conscience...

thank you for my purpose...

thank you for my humor...

thank you for my life...

when I think about 60 or even 80 years of life on earth compared to an infinite one with you, I don’t see a point in staying here...but I know what you want me to do here, God...
help me to NEVER lose sight of why it is that I am here...
now I know why I sing all the time...thank you!
and to anyone else who is reading this right now, I realize I posted this for you to see, but I don't want ANYONE to comment this...I don’t need to hear what you have to say about it (positive or negative) because I didn’t write it in order to hear responses...I wrote it because I felt the need...I can’t explain it...I just felt it was right...if you were inspired in any way, then why would you thank me anyways? Thank the one who TRUE inspiration comes from right now!
I love you, Jesus and anyone else who is reading this...truly...

All you need is love. More specifically, God's love. Though I'm pretty sweet, too. AND A GIANT PIE!!! Mmm ... pie.
