My Lord,
I was thinking about you and the love that I hold in my heart for you. If someone would have told me that I could be so in love with GOD, the Creator of the Universe...the Creator of me, I would not have believed it to be true. If they would have told me about the great love that you held and hold for me, I would not have believed that either.
So with that My Lord, please give me a Spirit of understanding and compassion as I try to tell others that very same thing. I know that this love is real. I know that I've never loved like this before and I know that I've never felt so loved in my entire life. BUT, I did not know for many, many years and even when I first received your gift of Salvation, it did not come easy for me to believe that you loved me...not as deep and apparent as it is today.
Our love affair grew over time and it has flourished out of waiting, trusting, studying, expecting, listening, praying and believing, and more waiting, trusting, studying, expecting, listening, praying and believing.
Heaven Father of mine, #please HELP me in any area of my life where I am being agressive, judgemental, overbearing or critical about others not believing and not coming to you. Lord, please let it be about your will and not mine.
BUT Father, you removed the scales from my eyes, you softened the heart of Saul and you showed Pharoh the Egyptians and countless others that you are indeed the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. So please, help the unbelievers come to Christ before your day of judgement. This is my prayer in Jesus' precious name, amen.

In Jesus' precious and perfect name, amen.
Eternally yours
