Love Letter Based On John 3:16
My dearly beloved
In the days that you have grown you were consistently told that Love was more than just a noun
That Love was an action far beyond the limitations ascribed by written prescriptions
And as you read this composition I pray that you receive a holy revelation
Of the Father and his Love for all creation.
My Child, I am what I am. The Great I Am
I am God. And God is Love. Therefore, I am that four letter sensation sweeping the nations
Often confused with worldly lust and selfish ambition
But do not be in dismay, for my Love as compared to that of the world is seated on an opposite spectrum.
My Love is the difference. The only solution available to any situation.
But I weep as I see a generation that rejects my Love without hesitation
Listen my child, I am the same Love that gave you life; gave you breath and all of its delight
I am that same Love that watches over you as the Devil plots your downfall day and night
I am that same Love that comforts you even as you stew in your own plight
And I am that same Love that, for you, relinquished the right to life.
Child, I love You.
Cross on my shoulders. Nail pierced hands. Hung my right to perfection for your imperfection.
It has been and will remain finished.
So embrace my love without fear, knowing that the Great I Am is drawing near.
