Relational Spirituality

SylviaI am writing you today to let you know I am thinking of you. Actually, I am always thinking of you, because you are the apple of my eye. I created you unique and special.

There has never been anyone else in the history of the world like you, and there never will be again. You are perfectly accepted in my beloved Son. You are never alone. You are hidden under the shadow of my wings. As you start your day today, I want to remind you that you are who you are because of who I am.

You are secure.

I am your defender and defense.

Your life is hidden with Christ in God.

You are lifted out of the depths.

You are clean.

The blood of the Lamb cleanses you from sin.
1 John 1:7b The blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.

You are refined by fire.

I am your God, a consuming fire.

You are my handiwork.

I am your Creator.

I am your friend.
John 15:14 You are my friends if you do what I command.

You have rest in me.

I am God of stillness.

You know all things work for good.

I am good.

You abide in the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.

I am the Holy Spirit.
Eph 2:13 You were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit.

You are mine.
Is 43:1 Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
I am the I AM.
Ex 3:14 "I AM WHO I AM ... say to the Israelites: 'I AM has sent me to you.'"

You are an heir of all things.
Gal 4:7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir.
I am your inheritance.
Eph 1:11 In Him also we have obtained an inheritance...

You are not lacking wisdom.

I am the keeper of your times.

With love from your Abba
