Daughter of a King

In spite of my amazing day yesterday I woke up this morning feeling not so great. In all honesty, I didn't even want to get out of bed. But I did, and for that I'm glad.

I was getting ready and I found a necklace I received from a Mercy donor for Christmas. It is just a simple crown on a silver chain. As soon as I saw I was immediately reminded that I'm a daughter of the King.

I put it on and went about my day. I went to Starbucks to work on some stuff and all the while just wasn't feeling it. I was preparing my lesson for Sunday school this week and working on some 'kid stuff', but the whole time just felt empty. Feeling restless and like I was getting nowhere I put that stuff to the side and just started to read my bible.

Recently I described my bible as no longer a giant rule book, but a love letter and guide for my life. I want to share with you a love letter from my daddy...

Sarah.

I know everything about you.
I saw you before you were born.
Your life is in my hands.
I think about you constantly.
I will never reject you.
You are perfect to me.
I know everything you need and I will provide.
I am the only constant in your life.
I will wipe every tear from your eyes.
You were created to be like me.
You are my child.
I sacrificed my everything for you.
I am on your team, and your biggest fan.
Nothing can seperate us.
I value you.
I have plans for you.
You bring me glory.
I call you by your name.
I wont fail you.
I'm always with you.
I love you.

Dad

It really helped me to calm down and come back to planet earth. I don't have to have it all figured out because He already does. He loves me just as I am. When I'm a mess, and when I'm at my best.

I don't know about you but when I think of being the daughter of a King. I think of being treated like royalty. I think of receiving nothing but the best.

It's time to press in and press on...
