This letter is one of my touching experience in my life during a retreat at Caleruega Convent, Nasugbu, Batangas. Here's a letter that can relates to our daily lives...
My Love _______. (Song of Solomon 10:6)
I love you (Jn. 15:9). I have called you by your name,
you are mine (Is. 43:1). Before I formed you, I knew you.
Before you were born, I consecrated you (Jer. 1:5). You did
not choose me, I chose you (Jn. 15:16).
Because you are precious to me, and honored, I love
you (Is. 43:4). I haved loved you with an everlasting love so I
continue to show you my constant love (Jer. 31:3). How can
I abandon you? My love for you is too strong (Hos. 11:8).
Can a woman forget her own baby and not love the
child she bore? Yet, even should she forget, I will never
forget you - I can never forget you. See, I have graven you
on the palm of my hand (Is. 49:15-16). For I, the Lord your
God, am holding you by the right hand (Is. 41:13).
Do not be afraid I have redeemed you (Is. 43:1 ) I am
with you (Is. 43:5). And be sure of this, I am with you always
until the end of the world... (Mt. 28:20).
Do not let your heart be troubled. Trust in me (Jn.
14:1). I will help you (Is. 41:14). When you pass through deep
waters, I will be with you. Your troubles will not overwhelm
you. The hard trials that come will not hurt you (Is. 43:2).
Do not worry (Lk. 12:9). Even the hairs of your head
have all been counted, so there is no need to be afraid of
anything (Mt. 10:30). The mountain may depart and the
hills will be shaken but my steadfast love for you will never
end (Jn. 54:10).
Come, my love (Song of Solomon 2:10). Come, I will lead you into
solitude and there I will speak tenderly to your heart. I will
be true and faithful. I will show you constant love and make
you mine forever. I will keep my promise... and you will really
know me then as never before (Hos. 1:14, 19-20). I am who
am (Ex. 3:14). I am the Lord your God (Hos. 13:4).
...the FAITHFUL GOD. (Hos. 11:12)
"For GOD so loved the world that he gave his only SON, so that everyone who believes in HIM might not perish but have eternal life."
John 3:16
