Easter Wish Repeated--A Letter To My Daughter!

This is one of the first piece I ever wrote and I thought it is time for it to re run because the special lady could probably use another boost and I know she tends to forget things, just like her mom. This is my Easter card to you even though it is the second time around.

Love you, Mom.

This is for a very special person who needs a lift today. She has been going through some very rough times lately but through it all she has shown strength of character and she has hung on to her faith in God, and continues to rejoice in Him. I am so very proud of her. Ah if only I had half of what she has I would be a much better person.

Dear Michelle,

I just wish I were more poetic and better able to express myself and my feelings. I am grateful for your forgiveness of me and my actions, and for that I thank you. Having you in my life has been one of the most perfect and spiritually enhancing parts of my life. I don’t regret one moment of our lives. Please don’t be too hard on yourself, my moral standards were not the greatest and you weren’t always raised in the greatest of environments. I will make no excuses for that, I know that God has forgiven me and I know He has forgiven you. I must say when God’s word says the reason my people suffer and die is due to lack of knowledge, I so understand that today. I believe that the greatest devastation in one’s life is emotional and I know that I caused great emotional harm in your life and for that I am truly sorry.

I know that you are having and really rough time right now and rightfully so considering your current circumstances. Try hanging onto Matthew, Chapter 5 and Psalms 91. I pray that His peace and His joy will totally overtake you.

Most of all I wanted to let you know how much I love you and how proud I am of you. I pray that you will let God carry you through these troubling times.

Love

Mom

P.S It is really hard for me not to preach, must come from my Grandmother.

About Me

My photo
I was born in Arkansas, raised between New Mexico and California. I have two beautiful daughters and one handsome son. Proud grandmother of 10 and great grandmother of 6. I derived my education from the school of hard knocks and came out a much better person for it. Strong will run amok was almost my demise but today it works in my favor. I gave it over to God and he healed me. I have an imaginary choke collar like a puppy wears and daily God tugs it because he loves me and wants to keep me safe. Because of God's grace I have a wonderful life today! I pray you find Him today!
