Does Your Heart Ever Ache, Lord?


                                        Sunrise at Black Lake, NY.

                      No matter how much pain we cause Our Father, 
                                        He loves us dearly.
                               The sun comes up every morning 
                      along with His JOY that is fresh each morning.

Do You ever weep when Your children ignore You?
Are You ever down-heartened 
     when some even deny You exist?
Do You ever regret that You created all of us
    when we let You down so completely at times?
    -especially when we are so mean to each other?

Fortunately, You are Faithfulness
     from forever to forever.
No matter what we do or don’t do 
     You forgive us when we tell You we are sorry.

You love us that much.
You desperately want to spend eternity with us 
     so You put aside all Your feelings to nudge 
     and coax us back to You.

All regrets and heartaches are gone.
All sins are forgotten forever.
There is only JOY when we turn back to You.

Please help me Lord, to do my part to bring You JOY.
Please help me, Your prodigal daughter,  
     to stop causing pain
     to Your wonderful, loving heart.
Please help me to live Your way from now on.

I really want to spend eternity with You.
It’s a tall order, but with God, all things are possible.

Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." Matthew 19:26

               I'd like to think that when we see the beauty of nature, 
                      that we catch glimpses of what we will see 
                            when we get to our eternal home 
                                  - if we choose Jesus.

Blessing:
May you be blessed each day 
    knowing that you have a Loving Father 
    who is always on your side, 
    who does all things for your betterment.
May you always realize 
    that you can simply trust Him 
    and He will always come through for you.

Hope to see you all in heaven someday!!!
May God bless you greatly, my friend.

                             We are all traveling on the road of life 
                              headed toward our final destination.  
                                      Our choices along the way 
                       determine where we end up for all of eternity.  
                  Where do you want to spend your forever and forever?
                                           Choose wisely.
                         I'd love to spend eternity with you in paradise.
