Daughter, don’t forget.

Don’t forget how I love you.

Don’t forget how I hold you,

No matter where you are or what you’ve done.

You are safe with me.

You are forgiven.

You are never neglected.

I give you all you need.

I love without reserve.

That love does not include worry.

So put it away.

Put it away, throw it away.

Worry is not from me.

Worry is not what I have for you.

It is a distraction, a thorn.

Let me pull out the thorn and heal your hand.

You need only reach for me,

Not the roses the world extends.

They are soft and bright but full of thorns.

They are deceptive.

I do not deceive.

I only give the rose,

Not the thorn.

See Numbers 23:19; Psalm 131; Isaiah 41:17-24; Matthew 6:24-34; John 14:15-31; Romans 8:1-3 and 35-39; Ephesians 3:18-19; Hebrews 6:16-18; James 1:17-18

These links share just a glimpse of the story God is telling us. When you have time, read a chapter or two around the verses to get the context and see the whole picture. My preferred Bible translation is the New Living Translation, so all links will be in that version.
