CLOSER THAN YOUR BREATH

I am closer than your breath. I am always with you. I hold you in the palm of My hands. I have never loosened My grip on you. You cannot run too far where I will not chase you down. My love is higher, wider, deeper and more passionate than you can even imagine. It is why I sent My Son. It is why He was willing to suffer and die for you. 

My heart burns for you, My child. You are always on My mind. Come close to Me, for I am drawing you into My heart. You are My beloved. Receive the love that only I can provide. My love heals the scars and wounds that you try to hide. Bring them to Me. Let Me touch those deep places and set you free from your shame. 

Let Me hold you close and rock you in My arms. Even now I am singing My songs of deliverance over you once again. I am setting you on the Rock of your salvation and reminding you of who you are in Christ, a beloved child of the most high God. Nothing can separate you from My love, so come close, My child. Let Me hold you. Let Me comfort you in My love.
