Father

Father, Father are you there? Can you hear me? I've prayed to you for two days! I'm just curious if you're listening. Listening, I hear all things That are to be heard. I see all things that are to be seen. I Am that I Am. I am sorry but, I wondered If maybe you had forsaken me As you had Your Son, As He died on the cross. Forsaken you! Forsaken My Son! How dare you speak to Me so! I did not forsake you, Nor did I My Only Begotten Son! What I gave you was and is a gift At the cost of My Only Begotten Son Is and was forgiveness of your sins. And my son you sin. Yes, you sin. So you dare ask if I forsake you. No, my son I love you, As I did my Only Begotten Son From His mother Mary, Joseph's wife. I have many children, as you know. Many who love me, many who don't. Yet, I love you all the same and I answer those who call, or don't. I do all this in My Time! I have created all things including you. I created My Only Begotten Son! And allowed Him, taken, for you. Have I forsaken you! No, I gave My all for you! I gave My Only Begotten Son for you Because I love you! Have I forsaken you? Ask yourself that question my son. Has He forsaken me? In the name of The Father, The Son, and my Brother Jesus Christ. Amen.

Amen, indeed, Richard. I like the way you allow God to respond to man's misguided questions by setting the record straight. Well done! Love, Carolyn
