Dear God,

You really like me?

Could you please help me? Could you help me, because sometimes when...you know... that happens... I feel sad. But, I'm okay really. You fill me. Could you help me out when I am afraid to step forward? Could you please help me to trust myself when I feel something inside of me say "caution"? - Because, your spirit is always right. And you live in me.

You really like me?

I like the wind. I like biking. The other day I biked for hours and hours and felt the wind in my hair and I always think about the holy spirit when I feel the wind, because He is like the wind. And He lives in me.

I like discovering myself. When I study you I find out more about myself. I found out that you have love that is everlasting. That it is stronger than the mountains, or something like that. I was in Alaska recently, which I am sure you know, and I tried to imagine the mountains falling into the sea. Because you tell me that your love is stronger than that, and your love is inside of me. Because. You live in me.

I think that means that I have value.

Is that what that means?

You created me for a purpose? To be known by you and to know you

and to "make you look good" like Jenn always said.

You like the things I like? Because, I'm really interested in being a biker, a hiker, I love being outside. I am finding that the sun makes me happy. I am happy. 

really.

really I am.

I know you know all of this stuff, but, it says that the people you turn away are going to be the people you never knew. I am pretty sure you know everything. But. I also think that this means that you want us to tell you stuff about our hearts.

J gets mad at you sometimes and once M told me if I was mad I could just yell and tell you and then R and D confirmed that. I didn't know that for a long time. I thought I could never really tell you what was really inside of me. But, I guess its okay, because.

You like me. and.

You live in me.

well, I gotta go now. love you, bye.
