A Letter from Jesus

I recently found a plaque at a Salvation Army. After reading the following beautiful message, there was no way I could not purchase it. If this was not a sign, then I do not know what one is. 

It’s called “The Letter.” It says: 

Dear Friend,

How are you? I just had to send a note to tell you how much I care about you.

I saw you yesterday as you were talking with your friends. I waited all day hoping you would want to talk with me too. I gave you a sunset to close your day and a cool breeze to rest you—and I waited. You never came. It hurt me—but I still love you because I am your friend.

I saw you sleeping last night and longed to touch your brow so I spilled moonlight upon your face. Again I waited, wanting to rush down so we could talk. I have so many gifts for you! You awoke and rushed off to work. My tears were in the rain.

If you would only listen to me! I love you! I try to tell you in blue skies and in the quiet green grass. I whisper it in leaves on the trees and breathe it in colors of flowers, shout it to you in mountain streams, give the birds love songs to sing. I clothe you with warm sunshine and perfume the air with nature scents. My love for you is deeper than the ocean, and bigger than the biggest need in your heart!

Ask me! Talk with me! Please don’t forget me. I have so much to share with you!

I won’t hassle you any further. It is YOUR decision. I have chosen you and I will wait—I love you.

Your friend,

Jesus

Oh my God! That is absolutely the most beautiful letter I ever read! It has brought tears to my eyes. I so understand this. I am a very devoted catholic and I sometimes go through dry spells where I find it hard to pray. My life wasn't always like this. I once was so lost and so much more. Through the Grace of God, He gave me back my life and with it many truly amazing things. I have never known love but I do today. He always loved me even when I was so messed up and couldn't see. Today, I see those sunsets and I know how I love God and He loves me. That is why this article touches my heart in such a way that no human could ever really understand but Jesus does. Thank you so much for such an inspiring article. It's like the whispher in the wind.
It feels good to write.
