the thing about this letter, is that I wrote this to Lily on a day when she was feeling down....and I wanted her to know how God thought of her....at the same time, I was feeling really low that day....and so, in a way, as I was writing this letter, God revealed to me that he was writing this letter to me. I call this my love letter from my Papa God.

I KNOW God loves me. I know there is no condemnation or guilt from HIM. HE is all I need. Many people in my life right now do not agree with some decisions I have made recently. That is okay with me. I know where I stand with my God....and I do not need the approval of anyone other than him
