Today’s Letter to God
Dear Abba Father,
I am so grateful to know that thou art a God near at hand: that thou dost guide my steps. As I look back into the years of my life I see nothing but blessings received at thy hand. Looking ahead into the great uncertain I seek & expect that thou wilt prepare me to represent thee well.
Your child,
James

God’s Reply
My dear Son, James,
Remember that the Lord hath pleasure in the prosperity of His people: hath a vested interest in thy enterprises: hath promised to provide thee with all things needful to this life. By thee shall I bring glory to my name, yea, I shall increase thee more and more, you and your children. No good thing will I withhold from thee if thou wilt walk uprightly. Blessed is the man that trusteth in me.
Abba
