My Precious Child

I love you so so  much, and I’m happy that I get to be your Father.  Always remember that you are and have always been a special child.  I dare say the apple of my eyes, my treasured possession. I can hardly believe how quickly the years have passed. It seems like just yesterday you were my strong, courageous, tell it like it is, child, who often told anyone who would listen about the great things that you’d accomplish in that future.  As you grew I often observed you with amazement, wondering how such a small human could have such boldness, passion and fight. But then, you get that from me.  You were alway so full of potential and possibilities.  

Watching you as you evolve through the years brought so much joy and pleasure to my heart.  I wish you truly understood how valuable you are and the impact that you are destined to make.  This is why I thought it was time to talk to you.  As the year passed, I’ve noticed that the fire and passion that once drove you to push past  the obstacles you faced has waned; resulting in you giving up on becoming the person you envisioned you’d be. The person you envision I wanted you to be. You no longer see challenges as opportunities, but have been accepting any and or everything that life dishes out.  You now live your life in fear, terrified of rejection, failure and the opinions of others.  

I’ve watched you brush aside your dreams to settle for things far below your potential.  I’ve observed that you’ve stopped believing in you – your dreams, and your calling; denying who you are for a watered down version of you.  I’ve observed how unhappy and unsatisfied you’ve been.  It pains me so much to see you allowing your circumstances to get the better of you.  Always worrying or complaining about one thing or another.  

Now that that has been said, I need you to stop feeling sorry for yourself and about the things that have happened.  You might not know, but I’ve gotten information from a reliable source that they were all woven into your journey.  They will not be wasted, they were designed to teach and not destroy/ distract you. So now,  it’s time to stop looking to yourself, and your abilities and start looking to Me.  Trust Me.  Stop leaning on your own understanding, stop looking around on others and your present circumstancesonce, because your solution lies in Me, your father. So look to me, focus on me.  Allow me to lead.

Hun, you’ve got this, don’t be carried away with how you feel, feelings can be very deceptive at times.  You might not feel like moving forward, but move forward anyway, push past how you feel.  Your feelings will eventually align, you just need to constantly do what you know you must do.

I want you to get up and get active right where you are. Hoping/ dreaming without action is useless. Being frustrated and not doing anything about it will lead to greater frustration.  Your actions will speaks louder than anything you could say.  You need to be moving forward in faith at all times. 

My child it’s time to get back on track. It’s time to start believing again.  It’s time to reignite that infectious fire that not only lit your world but also everyone who you encounter.  

See you along the God directed path.

Be blessed.
