love in a letter

 I was speaking with a friend, and she said what are you hoping for, and I jokingly said snail mail, even if that’s what I wanted. A few hours later, I found a card addressed to me. It has just come in the mail, and let me tell you, I just wanted to cry happy tears. 

You are teaching

Me to say it

Tell people 

What I want

For the unexpected 

May happen


Something so simple, yet I will treasure that precious card for a long time. It reminded me that I’m loved in spite of myself. I also am reminded that when you don’t think God is paying attention, He is. 

Trust in the minute

And the grandest dreams

Won’t feel so daunting 

With His tender loving

Care

Your words gently affirm the power of speaking our desires and trusting that even the smallest wishes are seen. Thank you for sharing this touching moment—it’s a lovely encouragement to keep believing in the little things.
