REDEEMER ~ A House of Love Heart2Heart Love Ministry Moment
Are you feeling broken-hearted, abandoned, or burdened? Maybe you have known suffering, depression, grief, or sorrow. Maybe loneliness, rejection, or hopelessness have pressed so deeply into your soul that words will not come, and only tears rise to your eyes. If that is you, lean in close. Jesus—your precious Redeemer—wants to heal your heart-ache with His Love. You do not have to wait any longer. Even now, as you read this, He is near to you. He is not distant or unaware of what you are feeling. He is present, and His Love is reaching for you right where you are. You can invite Him into your heart, even into the places that hurt the most. He is holding you, He is near to you, and His healing Love is surrounding you.
Whatever you are carrying right now, you do not have to keep holding onto it. You can release it. You can place it into His hands. Scripture tells us to cast our burdens on the Lord, and that means you can give Him your anxiety, your sorrow, your fears, your sickness, your hurts, and your heart-ache. You are not meant to carry what He already carried for you. He understands what you are going through and sees it fully, even the parts you cannot put into words. Even your silent tears are understood by Him. Nothing you feel is hidden from Him, and nothing you carry is too much for Him. When you are in Jesus, His redeeming and healing Love is in you. You belong to Him. You are His precious child, and His Love is safe. His Love stays. You can lay everything down with Him right here and right now.
The Great Exchange is simple, but it is powerful. Jesus already did His part when He took on what did not belong to Him so that you could receive what you never could earn on your own. “God made Him who knew no sin to become sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” — 2 Corinthians 5:21 Your part is to receive, to believe, and to accept what He has already done for you. He gave everything—His life, His love, and His finished work—so that you could be brought into His family and called His own. You are not forgotten, overlooked, or left out. You are chosen.
There is a promise that speaks directly to the tender places of your heart. “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” — Psalm 147:3 He is the One who restores, who gently repairs what has been broken, and who sees the places that feel crushed or worn down. He does not turn away from your pain. He moves toward it. He wraps His Love around it and stays with you in it. He is the One who understands your grief, your sorrow, and every hidden ache within you, and He is the One who brings healing right into those places.
Let your Redeemer love you in the places where you are grieving. I know what it feels like to carry loss. I lost my baby Heaven in 2004, and I lost my daddy in January 2017. Grief can feel like a river that never fully stops flowing through your heart. If you are grieving someone or something, you do not have to walk through it alone. Let His Love meet you there. Let Him sit with you in it and hold you in what you feel. And if you know someone who is grieving, give them space to feel. Listen to them. Let them be real without trying to fix or rush their process. Love them where they are. It is the heart of the Father to love the hurting and gently bring them back to life with His healing Love.
Your Redeemer is not finished with your story. He takes what feels broken, what feels lost, and what feels beyond repair, and He brings life out of it. Isaiah 61 reminds us that He repairs broken hearts, brings freedom, comforts those who mourn, and gives beauty instead of ashes, joy instead of sorrow, and praise instead of heaviness. He does not ignore what you have been through. He redeems it. He covers you with His righteousness, gives you a new identity, and calls you His own. You are not defined by what you have walked through. You are covered by who He is.
There is nothing about your heart that is too broken for His Love to reach. His Love meets you in your weakness and becomes your strength. His Love surrounds you, stays with you, and restores you gently and completely. You are not alone. You are not abandoned. You are not too much. You are loved, and your life is being held in His hands and turned into something meaningful, something beautiful, and something whole.
“God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” — Romans 5:8 To redeem means to pay the full price for something, and God saw you as worth everything. “You are worth everything I gave to call you My daughter, My son, My family.” — Love, Your Redeemer
Heart2Heart in His Love,

If you would like to worship along with me or share this Godsong with someone who needs this healing love, you can listen here:
You are not wrong for expecting to be treated right, or for asking someone to honor a boundary or to respect your space, privacy or you as you pursue keeping “first things first.”
You are not wrong for asking someone to respect your desire to pursue and stay in peace internally & externally with others. You are not wrong for asking someone to give you the time that is needed to take care of yourself, your spouse & your loved ones needs before you are able to know if or when or how much time you do or don’t have to give above and beyond personal / family priorities that come first.
You get to decide how people treat you. You get to decide how to use the time that has been gifted to you. You get to choose to be a good steward of that time without others un-lovingly pressuring or guilting you into amy commitment or conversation to prove your love or loyalty to them.
It should never be or feel like someone is testing you or trying to get you to move or compromise your boundary to prove your love or loyalty to them or their importance in your life. Their expectation that you would move your boundary just for them and forsake your first and foremost responsibilities to your loved ones or even yourself is just out of place. They are being inconsiderate and thinking of themselves & not you or your loved ones. Either they are only focused on themselves or choose not to be understanding or they just don’t value & respect you & your priorities you have to take care of first.
It’s not your responsibility to sacrifice your first priorities for the sake of not ruffling their feathers. They can learn love is patient & kind & that patience is the most loving kind response they can have while you are taking care of your first priorities until you have free time to give them. Love is not grumpy when it doesn’t get it’s own way. It’s not me-first. Love patiently waits. Good things surely come to those who are love – to those who patiently wait in love. Love is patient and kind in actions, words and attitude in the interim. Be love from start to finish and the space in between.
You cannot be apart of other equations subtracting yourself from being apart of the most important equations first. We are responsible for ourselves, our spouses, family & loved ones to whom we are first committed. When extra time presents itself we have spare time to share with others but first things come first. Anyone that loves you should fully understand and respect that especially when you have given this gift of understanding and patience to them anytime they needed it most to focus on their priorities.
A mutually giving relationship is healthy. Sometimes there may be something going on more in the life of one person than the other person. So, in those cases it may require the person who is not under pressure to create space / room for the other one who is under pressure to feel that it’s ok if they have to tend to the urgency of the need they have. If this is you that is under pressure you don’t need someone adding more pressure to you You should be able to simply say I am not able to do “xyz “ right now without having to apologize, explain or feel pressure as if you need to be all things to all people. What a gift it is to have someone that says I understand. No worries. Take care of you and those you love and we will get together whenever things settle down. Adding more pressure or making it about you in a negative way just isn’t love. Someday you will need someone to be understanding of you. Give that gift freely to others, as well. The world doesn’t revolve around anyone. So make sure you aren’t sending that message to others. It’s not love. Love doesn’t seek its own.
Love is not me-first Love doesn’t look like or sound like pressure, force, guilt tripping, shaming, controlling or manipulating someone passively or aggressively into anything – not a relationship or a favor, etc. I shouldn’t even have to say that but it happens as much as we let it keep happening. If you are tired of it – set your boundaries, vocalize your boundaries if and when needed and honor, keep & respect your own boundaries as you expect others to honor and respect them. If you don’t honor & keep your own boundaries, how can you expect others to honor them if they don’t see you honoring & keeping them yourself?
Support your own healthy goals & desire to have healthy relationships by setting up boundaries that help you to accomplish those goals and desires. Then follow them yourself. Most people who love you will support you and then there will be some that will not support you but try to coerce, condemn, guilt, etc. you into compromising your boundaries using the whole “if you love me” you will move, lift or change your boundary for them.
Please don’t enable people to do this to you. It’s not love to enable others who choose to be unloving, unhealthy, toxic and just so plain self-centered as if you should revolve your time and plans around taking care of their needs before your own. If they aren’t working hard on their own problems and expect you to work on or give more
time to working on fixing their problems than they do – you are simply enabling them to become unhealthily dependent on you which we all know what that creates in a relationship. Codependency
The most loving & supportive thing you can do for them is to not get drawn into or become the one they depend on to do for them what they should be doing for themselves. That also sets you up to be blamed if things don’t go the way they expect. Instead of them learning to take responsibility & own their part you will be their scapegoat and it will in their eyes be all your fault if what they expected doesn’t happen, etc.
One of the most loving gifts you can give to someone who is pursuing to better their life, heal & be healthy on all levels, prioritize & take care of their spouse & family and goals is to support them. It takes a lot of needed & consistent effort & time to accomplish these desires & high priorities. There is a lot to balance out and time that goes into taking care of yourself and also those within your home that is not always understood or seen from the outside. So, decide in your heart you will give them the time, room & space needed to take care of those priorities first. Decide you won’t take it personally, judge or make it about you if you have to wait your turn before they are able to get back to you, text or call you, meet with you, etc. You will 100% feel bad and sad if you make their temporary unavailability about you in a negative way. That’s not supportive, helpful or healthy at all for the relationship. That kind of pressure is just damaging.
It makes you feel bad and get hurt when it has nothing to do with whether you are loved or important or not to them. It makes them feel bad and stressed because they already have enough on their plate trying to meet & keep their priorities and the added unnecessary pressure from you is a recipe for leaving a bad taste in their mouth and is a killer to a loving Heart2Heart connection.
You are supporting them when you honor, respect and rally them on to keep taking care of Godly, personal care or marital / family priorities first. It’s not about you if they are practicing, purposing & pursuing healthy, loving, Godly & honorable commitments & promises they have made to God, themselves & their loved ones. The more you give understanding the more they can focus on what they need to focus on and not spending their energy having to also think about you being upset. Let them off the hook and don’t make them feel responsible for you. In good time they will be able to circle back around to you but you can make it easier on them to let them know you are good until that free time comes. You are gonna be ok, I promise.
It feels good to be flexible with others. It feel good to let them off the hook they thought they were gonna be on. It feels good to give them the gift maybe no one else really gave them was to count themselves in & include themselves in the equation. So many that have been brought up to try to make everyone else happy often lost themselves in the mix because they didn’t feel how they felt or what they needed to do counted, mattered or was important. They were made to feel responsible to make everyone else happy, pleased and put first and they got left in the dusty leftovers or nothing overs.
Everyone counts. Everyone matters. Don’t lose yourself trying to make everyone else happy denying yourself the right to not only be important but treat yourself and your needs as important, too. Don’t lessen yourself and zero yourself out putting everyone else’s needs as priority and counting yourself out. It’s not leave yourself out. It’s as you take care of yourself you will have more to give and share with others when the time makes itself available. Don’t disclude yourself in the equation. I don’t mean make yourself more important and small not being considered at all. I mean take care of you and your significant others in your house first. That is love. You will have more to give when you have time to give it if you make time for first things first. Time with God matters first. You matter. Your spouse matters. Your kids matter. Your extended family matters. Your loved ones and close friends matter. Your sisters and brothers in Christ matter. Your pets matter. Everyone matters but there is a priority order that you take care of first. You don’t not care about those down the list but you have to take care of those first priorities first with your first fruit of time you have. God will use you in time but He can also use and love on others and use other things to help others out in the interim until you are ready. Don’t carry the weight of the world on your shoulders trying to carry everyone else. Only Jesus is able to do that. You still can pray for them and encourage them in other ways until you are able to freely give of your time to them in additional ways. Not saying don’t help but don’t stress yourself out and count yourself out killing yourself to help someone else and not take care of yours and your family’s needs first. God isn’t only depending on you to help. His sources and ways are higher and far exceed our supply, sources, ways, time & ability. He’s got them while you are caring for you and your family first. Barring an emergency you are free to keep taking care of first things first. When you are ready you will be all there instead of feeling divided, resentful or stressed / pressured. It will be the gift you want it to be when the time is right.
Above all – love is priority. Love is patient and kindly waits patiently. Love resists a me-first attitude and supports others who when they need to first focus on what is first priority. When the time is right – and available – the more lovingly patient and kind you are in the waiting with them – the more free they are to fully focus on being there for you when they are able to. GOd is in the space with you between the now & not yet. He’s gotcha good. Let Him be who you first turn to – your first priority – and just at the right time He will send you a Jesus with skin on friend who is ready and able to be who He has fashioned and created to be for you ! It just takes a little patience, understanding and love in the meantime to give others the space & time needed to be available. Could just be seconds, minutes, maybe a hour, sometimes a day, week and possibly in some cases a month, etc. depending on the crisis or weight of things going on in their lives.
You have God through it all. He is right there with you and would love nothing more than Him being your first priority & your main go-to ! Somehow when we put Him first ~ all else works together for good because we love Him and chose to WAIT WITH HIM (bind ourselves, braid ourselves, entwine ourselves closer and closer to Him) in the waiting while waiting patiently in love for our Jesus with skin on friend to be ready !
Love is a win-win for everyone. Everyone counts including you. Sometimes we just have to remember it is about us but not all about us. It’s ok if someone has to take care of themselves or family first just like it is OK if you have to take care of yourself or family first. It’s not forsaking or leaving someone out to press pause, hold or postpone until you are able to be all there for them. It’s not unloving to ask for understanding or a little time to sort or work things out in your own life before you commit to trying to work something else out in someone else’s life. That space in between there I can’t do that right now, but I am able to do “xyz” n this moment (maybe it’s prayer, for example) until I am able to do “abc” at some point later. It’s ok. You got this.
May love return back to you on many waves. Sowing into taking care of yourself and your spouse/family as your first ministry is pleasing to the Lord. It will give you full love buckets to pour out to others in God’s perfect timing !
Love to all of you ! My favorite is loving you & encouraging you to love God, yourself and others with His love ! You are important. You matter ! You are precious and worth being treated your full value and worth! Don’t treat yourself less than you deserve and treat others the way you would love to be treated with love, kindness, patience and understanding. Everyone should give and receive these gifts to one another. Your importance God made you with is not minimized no matter what. Others may not be able to be there for you until they are able but the best gift is knowing God always is with you and loves to be your very Present – Helper IN your time of need which is in a greater way than anyone on this earth is able to ever be for you.
Thank you to each of you who have ever been there for me when you are able and to what extent you have been there for me. I just appreciate the gift of you and your love foremost. Just knowing you would if you could and that your love is with me is the most precious gift of all. I don’t ever expect anything but I do thank you if and when you are able to whatever degree you are able to be love to me. Just knowing you love me is enough ♥️ That’s the best gift you could ever give just knowing and feeling that !
Love to you all & to all – all the love in my heart to you – I will be here for you best I am able to in whatever way or timing I am able to be. Thank you for your love – and patiently waiting with me in the space between ♥️
There are moments in life when we begin to realize what it truly means to be a Love Missionary… that every word we speak carries something from within us into the heart of another… in a deeply meaningful and life-giving way.
And when our hearts have been loved, healed, and filled by DaddyGod… those words begin to carry His love, His goodness, and His healing into the lives of others. This is how Love Missions begin… and how Love is multiplied from one heart to another.
In the House of Love, this is something the Child of Love is learning… through a gentle, heart-to-heart conversation with Love Himself.
And now… just come and sit with them for these next few moments… as we step inside the House of Love… and listen to a gentle, heart-to-heart conversation between Love Himself and the Child of Love.
The Child of Love sits close beside Love Himself, near enough to feel His presence wrap around her like a quiet embrace. She looks up at Him thoughtfully and asks, “Father of Love… is it really true that every word I speak carries something from my heart into someone else’s?”
Love Himself smiles gently, the kind of smile that feels like it understands everything before it’s even spoken. “Yes, My Child… every word you release carries what it was born from. Words formed in Love carry Love… and words formed in wounds carry wounds.”
She grows quiet, letting that settle inside her. “Father of Love… I only want to speak what comes from You…”
His hand rests softly over her heart. “And that is the invitation, My Child… transformation. When your heart rests in Mine, your words begin to sound like Me… because they’ve been born from Love. My Love is GOOD… and when My Love fills your heart, goodness will naturally overflow through your words.”
She feels something beginning to shift within her, gentle but real. “Father of Love… hurtful words… they don’t come from You, do they?”
His voice remains steady and kind. “No, My Child. Words that wound, divide, accuse, shame, or that tear others down do not come from My heart. They come from places still hurting… still unseen… from the inner places of others still needing Love.”
Her eyes lower slightly, recognizing something within herself. “Then when people speak that way… it means their hearts are hurting?”
He nods. “Yes… unhealed wounds will speak until they are healed. Pain that has not been loved will try to express itself through words.”
A quiet compassion begins to rise in her. “Then Father of Love… I don’t want to add pain on top of pain to anyone…”
His smile warms as He rests His hand on her heart. “And you won’t, My Child, as you let Me love you right there. Remember, a heart fully given to My Love becomes a place where healing begins, not harm. When you allow Me to heal your heart, your words will begin to heal others.”
She places her hand over her chest, feeling something alive there. “Is this how Love multiplies?”
He leans a little closer, His voice soft but full of life. “Yes… this is how Love multiplies. One healed heart begins to speak healing, and those words plant life in other hearts.”
She leans in, drawn by what she’s beginning to understand. “Then… this is a mission, isn’t it?”
A gentle light fills His expression. “It is, My Child… it’s a Love Mission. To love unreservedly and unconditionally with the same Love I have poured into you.”
Her voice softens. “Father of Love… I want to live like that. I want my words to carry Your heart…”
His hand remains over hers. “Then let every word you speak first rest in My Love. Let it be softened, healed, and filled by My Love before it is given to others.”
She asks quietly, “And when I do that… what will happen?”
His answer comes like a promise already unfolding. “You will begin to see it… relationships growing, not breaking. Hearts opening, not closing. Love increasing, not diminishing. You will see My Love multiplying through you.”
Tears rise gently in her eyes. “Father of Love… is this what it means to be a Love Missionary?”
He answers simply, “Yes… a heart that has received My Love and cannot help but give it.”
She presses her hand to her heart. “Then take my whole heart, Father of Love… heal every place in me, so that every word I speak carries You.”
His voice softens even more. “I already am, My Child…”
And in that moment, something sacred is sealed heart2heart… not through striving, but through surrender.
In the House of Love, this is how Love Missions begin… not by trying harder, but by being loved deeper. And from that place, words are no longer just spoken… they become songs of Love carried from one heart into another.
Love Himself gently calls her forward. “Come, My Child… there are hearts waiting for us…”
Child of Love:“What is this I’m feeling…? It feels like… something inside me is being held.”
Love Himself turns toward you, His eyes warm, kind, and full of knowing.
Love Himself:“My beloved… that is Me… holding you on the inside. My love is within you, gently holding every part of your heart. I am patient with you, and I am kind toward you, because I am love.”
You sit beside Him on the deep crimson Seat of Love, and something inside you begins to soften.
His words settle deep in your heart, just like His living Word says, “Love is patient, love is kind” (1 Corinthians 13:4, NKJV).
Child of Love:“It feels… easy to be here with You.”
Love Himself:“It is safe to be with Me.”
You begin to notice your heartbeat… and then something even more beautiful happens.
Child of Love:“It feels like Your heart is so close to mine… like I can feel Your love moving inside of me.”
Love Himself gently places His hand over His heart.
Love Himself:“My love is alive within you. Nothing can come between you and My love.”
Your heart hears it, not just as words, but as truth, echoing gently within you… “Absolutely nothing can get between us and God’s love” (Romans 8:39, MSG).
Child of Love:“You really know me… don’t You?”
Love Himself:“I know every part of your heart. Even the quiet places. Even the places that have been hurt.”
You hesitate for a moment… then whisper,
Child of Love:“Those places… they don’t always feel safe with others.”
Love Himself:“I know. There are places within you that only My love can reach.”
You begin to feel it… His love moving deeper… gently… carefully… right into those hidden places.
Child of Love:“It feels like something inside me is softening…”
Love Himself:“That is My love… kind, safe, and full of understanding.”
You close your eyes for a moment, feeling His presence surrounding those tender places within you.
Child of Love:“What happens when something inside me is hurting?”
Love Himself:“I come close to that place. Just like your body sends help where it is needed… My love moves to where your heart is hurting.”
You feel it… right there… in that very place… warm… present… alive.
Child of Love:“You’re right there…”
Love Himself:“I am with you always.” (Matthew 28:20, NKJV)
This time… it doesn’t feel like something you are trying to believe.
It feels real.
You sit quietly beside Him, your heart resting.
Child of Love:“This feeling… this hug on the inside… will it go away?”
Love Himself gently turns toward you.
Love Himself:“My beloved… this is not something that comes and goes. It is Me… alive within you. I do not leave you. I am always holding you… right here.”
Something deep inside you settles into that truth.
You sit with Him a little longer, then ask,
Child of Love:“What happens when I’m with someone else… and they’re hurting?”
Love Himself:“You will feel My love rise up within you toward them. The same love you are receiving… will begin to reach them through you.”
You pause… taking that in.
Child of Love:“So… it doesn’t stop with me?”
Love Himself:“No, My beloved. My love flows. From Me… to you… and through you.”
Something awakens inside you.
Child of Love:“And through me…”
Love Himself smiles.
Love Himself:“Yes. A holy hug… given heart to heart.”
You sit there, letting it all settle…
Then you whisper one more question.
Child of Love:“Are You still holding me… even now?”
Love Himself leans close, His presence wrapping around your heart.
Love Himself:“I have never stopped.”
And right there…
You feel it again…
That gentle… warm… living… holy hug on the inside…
There’s a place inside the House of Love… a room where your heart can finally exhale. It’s called the Safe Feelings Room. And this is not a place where you are corrected, or told to be stronger, or reminded that you should be over it by now. This is not a place where you have to hide what is really going on inside of you. This is a place where you can be real.
Where every feeling is allowed to come close without being rushed, without being silenced, and without being made smaller so it’s easier for someone else to hold. You don’t have to change what you feel here. You don’t have to rename it, soften it, or dress it up. What you feel matters.
And in this room, there is a table… a prepared place. A table of love where nothing has to knock, and nothing is left outside waiting to be invited in. Every feeling… every emotion… already has a seat. Every part of your heart is already welcome.
And as you sit there, something begins to shift. What once felt overwhelming, confusing, or even a little frightening doesn’t feel the same when it is no longer hidden. Here, your feelings don’t feel like enemies. They feel like something that came carrying a message… something that has been trying to be seen, to be known, to be understood.
Fear may come and sit beside you, quietly, almost hesitant at first. And when it is finally given space to speak, you hear it say, “I wasn’t trying to control you… I was trying to protect you. I saw what hurt you before, and I didn’t want you to feel that again.” And something inside of you softens, because fear was never trying to be your enemy… it was trying to guard something tender within you.
Sorrow sits nearby, heavy but no longer hidden. And when sorrow finally lifts its eyes and speaks, it whispers, “I am here because something mattered… because something touched your heart deeply. I stayed because I didn’t want that to be forgotten.” And you begin to feel it… that sorrow is not emptiness… it is evidence that your heart has loved.
Grief sits in that deeper place at the table, the seat that feels sacred. And when grief is finally allowed to speak, it doesn’t rush. It gently says, “I carry what was precious. I hold what was loved. I am not here to take from you… I am here because love was here first.” And suddenly, that ache doesn’t feel like something to run from… it feels like something to honor.
Across the table, anger sits… not loud now, not overwhelming, just present. And when anger is finally heard without being judged, it says, “I rose up because something wasn’t right. Because something in you deserved care… respect… protection. I was trying to show you that you matter.” And instead of pushing it away, you begin to understand it.
And as each feeling is finally heard, something sacred begins to happen. The child within you, the part that once felt unseen, unheard, and misunderstood, begins to lean in, not in fear, but in recognition. Because these feelings… they were carrying pieces of your story. And now, as they speak, it’s as if those pieces are no longer scattered… they begin to come back together, not as something broken, but as something being made whole.
And there, at the table, with Love Himself present, holding the space, something even deeper unfolds. There is no tension, no pressure, no need to fix anything. Just a gentle joining, where what you felt, what you carried, what you didn’t understand before begins to come into harmony. And you realize your feelings were never trying to pull you apart… they were waiting to be brought into love. And here, in His presence, they are.
As you sit there, something settles even deeper within you. These feelings are not here to take over you. They are visitors. They may come, they may sit, they may speak, but they do not stay forever. Fear may visit, but you are not becoming fear. Sorrow may sit with you, but you are not becoming sorrow. Anger may speak, but it does not get to define who you are. You are learning something sacred here. You are learning to become Love.
And as that truth begins to rest in your heart, you realize something even more beautiful. You are not the one visiting this room. You belong here. The House of Love… this place where your heart is known… this place where nothing in you is turned away… this is your Home.
You don’t have to earn your place here. You don’t have to pretend to stay. You don’t have to hide parts of yourself to remain. You can take off the mask. You can lay down the pretending. You can be real… and still be held.
The feelings may come and go, but you remain. You have a place here… a permanent place. And even if it takes time for your heart to fully rest into that truth, Love is patient. Love is kind. Love does not fail to be love. So you will not be turned away. You will not be pushed out. You will not lose your place. Because this… is your Home.
And here in the Safe Feelings Room, nothing is rushed and nothing is rejected. Every feeling is invited to be known, gently held, and then released in its time. But you… you are the one who always belongs.
So if your heart feels full today, or tender, or unsure, come sit for a while. Let yourself feel what you feel without shrinking it, without changing it, and without hiding it. You don’t have to pretend here. You don’t have to be anything other than real. There is a place for you here. You belong here.
You are not too much. You are not wrong for feeling. You are not wrong for not feeling okay. You are being gently led back to yourself by Love… and held in Love as you do.
And if something in your heart is stirring, if something is asking to be felt or spoken or brought into the light, you don’t have to hold that alone. You can bring it to Love Himself just as you are, with no preparing, no fixing, and no getting it right.
And if your heart needs someone you can see and hear, there are safe places, safe people, where your heart can be held in that same love. And this House of Love does not end here. It continues. It lives, and breathes, and remains open to you… a place where your heart can return again and again, where you are met, where you are known, where you are loved.
And I am here too, not above you and not ahead of you, but with you. As someone who has felt deeply, walked through healing, and been met by Love in the middle of it all. What Love has done in me, what has been healed, what has been restored has been opened and shared so your heart would have a place like this too.
So if something in you feels seen here, if something in you feels understood, then maybe this space has been waiting for you… a Heart2Heart, a living, breathing House of Love where Love Himself meets you, and where you never have to walk alone. Ever 🤍
Heart2Heart in His Love,

You have exempted yourself from DaddyGod’s love for far too long. You thought because you failed that He was finished with you. You thought that He had turned His Face or favor away from you just because you failed. You wonder where your DaddyGod went or why you don’t feel His Presence like you once did. You thought He couldn’t ever use you… that somehow your mistake or wandering distanced or separated you from your Heavenly DaddyGod.
You felt so… because you thought so.
You felt so… because that’s the story you kept telling yourself…
And here’s the loving truth… many of the stories you’ve been telling yourself (maybe perhaps your whole life) were never born from Love. They were born from old wounds… old voices… old insecurities… old moments where you didn’t feel seen… known… valued… or protected. They were shaped by the mind traps you rehearsed… I’m not good enough… I’m too much… I’m not lovable… I always mess things up… something must be wrong with me. These stories were shaped by the voices of people who didn’t know how to love you well… who didn’t know their own worth, value, and identity in Christ… or didn’t know how to speak life over you… or didn’t know how to reflect the Father of Love’s heart to you. Some of those voices came from people who said they loved you but didn’t speak lovingly to you. Some came from authority figures you trusted. Some came from an earthly father who didn’t know how to show you the tenderness… delight… and steady affection of the Heavenly Father of Love… and without knowing it, your heart assumed God must be like them.
And for those experiences you never should have had to go through… my heart goes out to you. I am so deeply sorry that those moments shaped how you saw yourself and how you saw the Father of Love all this time. It challenged your heart and mind relationally… how to feel close to Him… how to trust He would never leave you… how to believe nothing could ever separate you from His Love. But the truth is… the only thing that ever made you feel separated were these stories… the ones you were told… the ones you believed… the ones you rehearsed… stories that were never the real truth. You just didn’t know any better. So give yourself some grace. Go easy on your heart.
And the more those untrue stories were repeated… by others or by your own heart… the more they felt like truth. But they were never the Father’s truth about you. They were never His story. They were never His voice. They were never His heart. And now His Love is inviting you to let those old stories go and let His Love Word rewrite His Loving Truths upon your heart. They will really change your mind… they will really change your experience… they will really change YOU.
But right this moment… I am here to tell you, Child of Love… don’t beat yourself up. Don’t guilt trip… shame… or condemn yourself for what you didn’t know… for not knowing you were an accomplice to your own pain… for not knowing your Know Nots… or how your mind traps kept you stuck in the muck. You simply didn’t know. That’s why they are called your Know Nots. You and I are forgiven of our Know Nots because Jesus on the cross said, “Father, forgive them, for they KNOW NOT what they do.” We had zero clue how we were an accomplice to our own pain. We just didn’t know. And when we finally DO KNOW, we allow the love and forgiveness of Jesus to wash over us and melt it all into a Love relationship with the Father of Love… and we don’t look back or give ourselves a hard time for what we didn’t know at the time… we just didn’t know.
This is an analogy I came up with that helped my heart and mind when I realized I was an accomplice to my own pain… Think of it like this… if someone asked you to go for a ride with them and you innocently accepted, believing that’s all you were doing… but you didn’t know they were on their way to rob a bank… and you were in the passenger seat… you would be seen as an accomplice even though you were innocent and unaware. You didn’t know. You weren’t trying to do wrong by accepting what they said. You weren’t actively or knowingly doing something harmful. You were simply riding along with the information you had at the time.
And here’s the truth… you should not be penalized, punished, or treated as guilty for something you unknowingly became part of without the full truth. You didn’t have all the facts. You didn’t have the real story. You didn’t know what you were stepping into. And innocence is always restored once the Truth is revealed.
So in a similar way… just because you didn’t know you were an accomplice to your own pain… or doubted the Father of Love’s staying Presence… or questioned His Love because you didn’t know the real truth… don’t penalize and punish yourself with the full weight of all the untrue stories you believed or told yourself. Those stories kept your heart in pain and kept you from experiencing the fullness of the Father’s Love… but you just didn’t know. Now that you DO know, you wouldn’t get in that passenger seat again just like you wouldn’t believe those old stories you used to tell yourself now that you do know the truth. You wouldn’t unknowingly set yourself up as an accomplice to your own pain like that again. So give yourself some grace. Don’t be so hard on yourself. Now that you know the truth, you will make better… healthier… more life giving and love giving choices for yourself. But don’t beat yourself down for having unknowingly been an accomplice to your own pain. The good news is… now that you know the truth, the truth can set you free forever.
And now… now that you know the old stories were never true… this is where the Father of Love begins to write something new… in you. He begins to write His truth upon the tablets of your heart… His Love Story… His True Story… because He is the Truth… the Life… and the Way. He is the Person of the Truth… and His Truth is trustworthy. His Truth is healing. His Truth is freeing. His Truth is the only story your heart was ever meant to believe.
So meditate… rehearse… and play His Loving Truth over and over and over in your mind. Philippians 4:8 invites you to think on things that are pure… praiseworthy… lovely… of good report… virtuous… and true. These are His Love Stories and Love Songs to play over your heart until your heart begins to believe nothing but the truth… until His Truth becomes the loudest voice in your inner being… until His Love becomes the story of your heart that you live inside of.
But what if… just what if… you begin to tell yourself a different story… the TRUE story… HIS STORY… His Love Story… and His Love Word as your only true reality.
Here’s your True Love Story to write upon the tablets of your heart…rehearse them, meditate upon them, play them over and over your heart & mind until they become your beautiful experienced reality in your heart, mind, whole being & life…
Romans 8:38–39 (NLT)Nothing can ever separate you from God’s love… not your fears for today or your worries about tomorrow. He is telling you gently that nothing you’ve done, nothing you’ve felt, and nothing you’ve believed has ever pushed His Love away from you.

This is a Heart2Heart story… a gentle picture of what Love Himself is like, drawn from the truths of Scripture, so your heart can rest in His love as you listen. These Love Lessons are told in story form… not new words from Jesus, but a tender reflection of the way Scripture shows Love Himself caring for His children. This story is simply meant to help your heart feel the way His love feels… soft, safe, healing, and true. Hear Him with me as I hear Love Himself whispering to our hearts…
My Child of Love… come sit with Me… right here where your heart can hear Mine. I want to show you something… something gentle… something true. I want you to watch how I love others… how I speak to them… how I hold their hearts… because as you listen, your own heart is learning. These are your Love Notes… written quietly inside you as I speak.
When I speak to someone… I speak kindly. I speak gently. I speak in ways that help their heart feel safe. I never use mean or hurtful words. I never make someone feel small. I never remind them of the things they wish they could forget. I never use their struggles against them. I never tease them or embarrass them or make them feel ashamed. I speak in ways that help them feel lighter… calmer… braver… and more loved. This is how I love… and as you listen, your heart is learning to love this way too. In My House… Love is spoken here.
When someone is hurting… I am soft with them. When someone is scared… I speak peace to them. When someone feels ashamed… I cover them with kindness. When someone is trying to heal… I protect the tender places. I do not poke at their wounds. I do not bring up what hurts them. I do not make them relive what broke them. I hold their heart gently… the way you would hold something precious that could easily be hurt. This is how I love… and as you listen, your heart is learning to love this way too. In My House… Love is spoken here.
When someone tells Me their secrets… I keep them safe. I never tell their private stories to others. I never use what they trusted Me with to hurt them. I never add more pain to the pain they already carry. I never drag them back through the things they survived. I never make them feel the hurt all over again. I protect their heart… because their heart matters to Me. This is how I love… and as you listen, your heart is learning to love this way too. In My House… Love is spoken here.
And My child… I know you have been hurt by people you trusted… people who should have loved you well… people who should have spoken to you with kindness… people who should have protected your heart instead of wounding it. I want you to hear Me… I never agreed with the way they treated you. I never blessed their behavior. I never told them to speak to you that way. I never told them to handle your heart with anything less than love. What they did was not love… and it was not Me.
But even after all of that… your heart still wants to love like I love. You still want to be My Love to others. You still pray for the ones who hurt you. You still hope for their healing. And that tenderness in you… that compassion… that desire to love even when you have been wounded… that is My Love alive inside you. That is My heart beating in yours.
You do not have to trust those who hurt you. You do not have to stay close to those who wounded your heart. Safe distance is not unloving… it is wisdom. You can pray for them from afar. You can bless them without giving them access to your heart. You can love them without letting them hurt you again. This is love too… the kind of love that protects your heart while still hoping for theirs.
So as you take these Love Notes into your heart… remember this… you are learning from Me. You are learning how to speak… how to care… how to protect… how to love with a heart that heals, not a heart that harms. You are learning to be a Heart2Heart friend because you are learning from Love Himself. And every time you choose kindness… every time you choose gentleness… every time you choose compassion… you are choosing to love the way I love. In My House… Love is spoken here.
“And never let ugly or hateful words come from your mouth, but instead let your words become beautiful gifts that encourage others…” My child… this is how I speak to you… and as you listen, your heart is learning to speak with beauty and kindness too.
“Kind words are like honey… sweet to the soul and healing to the body.” Let your heart feel this… My words to you are always sweet… always gentle… always healing… and your heart is learning sweetness from Mine.
“A gentle answer turns away anger, but harsh words stir up hurt.” Feel My gentleness… this is how I protect your heart… and as you listen, your heart is learning gentleness from Me.
“Let your words always be full of grace…” Breathe in My grace… let it fill you… let it shape the way you speak… the way you love… the way you respond… your heart is learning grace from Mine.
“Above all, love each other deeply, for love covers a multitude of wrongs.” Rest in this… My Love covers you… shields you… protects you… and as you listen, your heart is learning to cover others with the same tenderness.
My Child of Love… come here… let Me hold you for a moment. Let Me place My hands gently on each side of your face… the way I touch what is precious to Me. Look at Me… let your heart feel how deeply you belong to Love. You have listened so closely… you have let My words settle inside you… and I want you to feel this blessing not just in your mind, but in the softest places of your heart.
I bless your heart with peace… the kind that quiets the storms inside you. I bless your heart with rest… the kind that lets you breathe again. I bless your heart with truth… the kind that reminds you that you are safe in My Love.
And now, My child… I place My hand upon the top of your head… gently… tenderly… the way a loving Father blesses His beloved one. Feel My hand there… warm, steady, covering you with My presence. I speak healing into every place that has been hurt… every place that has been confused… every place that has been wounded by unkind words or unloving actions. Let My Love settle there… let it mend what was broken… let it soothe what was sore… let it bring peace where there was fear.
And hear this, little one… you are not only healed by My Love… you are carried by My Love… and now you are sent in My Love. You carry My gentleness. You carry My kindness. You carry My compassion. You carry My heart. You do not have to stay close to those who hurt you… but you can still pray for them… still hope for their healing… still shine My Love from a safe place.
You are My Child of Love… and I am sending you into the world with a heart that heals, not a heart that harms… a heart that speaks life, not pain… a heart that reflects Mine. Go in My Love… walk in My Love… speak in My Love… and remember always…
Let DaddyGod bring something beautiful, healing and good out of it all ! You have a healing message in you. DaddyGod wants to use you and your testimony to bring hope and healing transformation to another.
DaddyGod has brought countless ministry moments out of my healing testimony and journey to the aid of broken hearts who’ve gone through same or similar circumstances. It may not be the same loss but the same heartache. His healing love that authored my testimony is also His Voice speaking through me.
I have invited Him to use my healing journey and to send me as His first responder to administer spiritual & emotional first aid to the hurting and broken, rejected, abandoned, shamed, condemned, abused, lonely, depressed and grieving… He knows & loves my heart. He’s loved on my heart so good with His goodness that I have so much of His love to love others with. I may not like some things I have experienced; however, it is worth it all to have gone through and overcome them with Jesus so that I am able to be a hopeful message of His healing love to you. What DaddyGod has done for me He has & will do the same for you!
My heart’s Prayer is DaddyGod keeps bringing me more hearts to love, encourage, bless, nurture, pray and sing His healing love over. It is my honor to sit, stand, kneel and pray with you. If I get the blessing to be there for others the way I wish I could have had someone to be there for me during those times of brokenness, heartache & loss , it’s worth it all.
My message is His message of love. His Perfect Love covers over all my imperfections and yours, too. What is most important is that Love is at the center. Everything spoken or done flows from His love no matter the way it is gifted. I trust that no matter how He uses me to be His Love that He covers everything. What I am not able to do in my own strength, power and ability, His Grace covers !
The Lord is near to the broken-hearted and so my heart will be, too in whatever way I am able to be. He will more than makeup for where I fall short. It’s His doing, His healing, His transforming and it’s His nearness that is what brings the good. I just Love to come along with Him and be apart of Him loving on you through me.
Tell me your story. I will love you and will never judge, shame, condemn, guilt trip or try to pressure you with fear. His Perfection covers all imperfections.
Your message will become your testimony to bring His living and loving hope to someone else someday. It’s worth it all. Your story will someday be your testimony, too bringing DaddyGod’s love, life and hope to someone else someday. Someone needs DaddyGod’s message in you. Won’t you share it?

Your heart was made for Love… not judgment. Be kind to your heart and release people from your judgments… because judgment is a relationship killer. When you judge others, you don’t just hurt them… you hurt yourself. To the degree that you make someone else’s behavior about you in a negative way, to that same degree you bring pain and heartache into your own heart.
Judgment doesn’t just break relationships… it breaks hearts. It shuts doors. It closes rooms inside of you that were meant to stay open — rooms of trust, tenderness, and connection. But when someone you love starts hurting you with their own unhealed wounds, those rooms begin to close. And when that happens, it becomes so easy to slip into judgment… not realizing that judgment is only adding more pain to the pain you already feel.
Judgment feels like protection, but it’s actually a wall that keeps healing out. It’s a reaction to heartbreak, not a solution to it. And the more you judge, the more your own heart aches — because judgment doesn’t heal… it only hardens.
Judgment is the language of fear… and fear always divides. But Love… Love Himself… the Father of Love… the Heart Healer… speaks a different language… the language of Love. Love builds bridges where judgment builds walls. Love restores what judgment tears down. Love is the Heart Builder… the Heart Mender… the Heart Repairer. And when you begin to hear His Love language again, something inside you softens and helps you remember who you truly are.
This is why experiencing and healing with the Father’s Love from the inside out matters… and it counts a whole lot in relationship with yourself and others. When you choose His Love, you become a relationship builder… a heart builder. Standing up for your friends and defending them in their presence and in their absence is heart building. Speaking the better word to and about someone in their presence or absence is heart building. Looking for the gold in someone… especially when it would be easier to point out the dirt you see or know about them… is heart building. That’s what strengthens relationships… that’s what makes them come alive and stay alive. And the more you practice this, the more natural it becomes to live from Love instead of judgment.
As the Father of Love heals you from the inside out, something beautiful begins to happen. You learn to Love yourself and others with His Perfect Love and this sets you free. You learn to release people from all judgments, including yourself. You learn to be free from all judgments toward your own heart, and love others with the Father of Love’s heart. Your learn to see others … and yourself… through His eyes of Love. This is where healing begins to take root.
And here’s the truth in Love… when you truly stop judging yourself, you will stop judging others. When you see and think of yourself rightly… in agreement with the Father of Love’s view and opinion of you, which is your reality… you will begin to see and think about others rightly… the way Love Himself sees and thinks about you. When you love yourself with His Perfect Love, you will love others with His Perfect Love. Immediately fear will shrink… evaporate… evacuate… and poof… be gone. And with fear gone, Love has room to breathe again.
You cannot be free from judging others unless you are first free from judging yourself. So much self judgment… and judgment toward others… comes from not believing that you and others have been made in our Good, Good Father’s identity, worth, and value. You are able to love with Perfect Love because you were created in His Perfect Love. That’s who you are… perfectly loved by His Perfect Love. And when you remember this, judgment loses its grip on you.
And when this truth begins to settle in your heart, something shifts inside your heart. This is why judgment cannot stay where Love is healing. As the Heart Healer fills you, it becomes impossible to keep judging yourself… and impossible to keep judging others. His Love frees your heart to breathe again… to see clearly again… and to love without fear again. Healing always begins with seeing yourself through His eyes.
And here’s another layer of freedom… His Love also pulls the plug on your victim mentality. You begin to see others’ bad behavior choices as a reflection of their unhealed wounds. I learned during my healing journey this powerful truth. People do the things they do… or say… because of them… not you. Out of the abundance of their heart their mouth speaks… good or not so good. Out of the abundance of their unhealed heart they will act… think… speak… and behave. And when you understand this, you stop taking their behavior personally.
And when I ever speak of our Know Nots, I’m talking about something the Father of Love has shown me over and over again… some people truly do not know how their unloving behavior and words hurt others. They don’t know to the degree it hurts others. They are so wounded… so unhealed… so unaware… that they have no clue how their unloving words and actions damage hearts and relationships. They play the victim as if it’s everyone else… and they don’t see their part or own their part. They blame others while carrying a big ole log in their own eyes… and then accuse others for the specks they imagine caused their unloving reactions. And when you see this clearly, compassion rises up inside of you not wanting them to hurt inside but without excusing their hurtful behavior you or someone else you love has been hurt by.
Some Know Nots act as if they do not know but they know exactly what they’re doing and keep acting unloving anyway… which is still a sign they need deep healing. Some pretend they don’t know so they don’t have to take responsibility. And some truly have no clue how their dysfunctional… toxic… unloving behavior keeps killing their relationships and hurting even the very people they say they love. And this is why wisdom and boundaries matter so much.
Jesus forgave people of their Know Nots… therefore we are encouraged to forgive too. So forgive, yes. But forgiveness does not mean automatically giving them access to your heart to keep hurting you. The Father of Love is not asking you to let someone repeatedly wound you in the name of forgiveness. The most you can do is know your part… own your part… heal your part… and let them work out their healing vertically with the Father of Love. You cannot fix what only He can heal inside of them. And this truth should help to bring peace to your heart.
Before they can heal, they have to see their part… and then know how their unhealed wounds are causing destruction in their relationships. They need to know how to be loving… know how they shouldn’t be justifying their bad behavior or unkind words…know how to see others through His eyes of love… know how to speak and act with His Love. They cannot give to anyone else something they do not know… something they have never personally experienced in their own heart. And until they do, their bad behavior will continue to reflect their unhealed places. Meanwhile, you are still trying to heal your part with God. So, give each of your heart’s good healing time with the Father of Love first…that’s where you begin right now…
Their behavior will not change just because they say “I’m sorry.” I mean that’s nice to hear, but actions speak louder as they say. There should be proof of true heart change that comes with an apology. It’s not an overnight job to heal the wounds that have been there since you were a child or for a while. God is able to do anything, but your heart first has to be willing… willing to see the truth so it can set you free and then do the healing HeArtwork inside of you for lasting proof and change. The one that hurt you might genuinely feel bad for hurting you at the beginning or embarrassed others saw or heard about what they did… but that doesn’t mean or prove they’ve healed or wouldn’t do something hurtful to you again. They have to first heal the unhealed places inside their heart that contributed to their unloving behavior and speech. They also cannot give or share something with you they do not have… something they have never received from the Father of Love. They need the Love Teacher Himself… the Heart Healer… to give them Love Lessons and heal their inner wounds. And until that happens, loving wisdom must guide your every step.
Otherwise, it will set you up for a repeat of getting hurt again. Until they heal what is hurting them… they will likely hurt you again. They cannot give you something they do not know… do not understand… and have not experienced. And if they keep hurting you even after they do know…or keep justifying their unloving ways of speaking to you or about you… that is a clear sign they have more healing to do… and you need to make a wise and emotionally safe choice for your own heart. You do not have to put yourself in close relational access with someone who keeps re wounding you. Wisdom is not rejection… it is protection. And Love always protects.
And here’s something else the Father of Love has been teaching my heart… there is no revenge or vindictive energy in me. None. I genuinely pray and hope that those who have hurt me… or hurt others I love… will heal from whatever taught them or convinced them that it was okay to treat me or other people that way. I don’t want them punished… I want them healed. I want them to know the Father of Love… the Heart Healer… the Heart Mender… the One who can repair the places in them that their hurtful behavior comes from. And this desire for their healing keeps your heart and my heart soft.
But until they heal… until they get a different heart set and mind set… until they learn not to treat others in hurtful ways… you may need to give yourself some relational safe space from them. Not as punishment… not as rejection… but as wisdom. Safe space is not cutting people off… it’s protecting and preserving the peace and healing you’ve found in the Father of Love’s Love. It’s refusing to enable unloving behavior. Love does not enable what is unloving. Love protects. Love guards the heart. Love honors the healing the Father of Love has begun in you. And this is how you love yourself well.
Your greatest act of Love is not to let them keep hurting you… your greatest act of Love is to pray for them… to bless them… and to give them the healing space they need with the Father of Love so He can heal their Know Nots and unhealed wounds… the very places their hurtful words and actions come from. You are not abandoning them… you are entrusting them to the only One who can truly heal them. And entrusting is an act of Love.
You are not a victim. You are a Victor in Christ Jesus. So keep on healing from the inside out. The more you see… become aware of… and heal… the more you will not make their issues about you. They won’t be able to play you like before. The most loving thing you can do for them is pray for them… that they will come to know… see… and experience the healing Love of God from the inside out. And as you heal, you will see clearly again.
And hear this loving truth gently… the Father of Love is sorry for how they have hurt you. But He wants you to be free from letting them make their bad behavior your responsibility. Only Love Himself… the Heart Repairer… can fix what is hurting inside of them that causes them to hurt others… and you. You just keep working on your part with the Father of Love… healing your Know Nots with His beautiful healing Love. And in that healing, you will find peace.
And if you’ve been hurt, know this gently… Child of Love… you are worth consistently and genuinely being treated with kindness… respect… honor… and value. You always were… maybe you just didn’t know it or believe it. Maybe you didn’t know it because there were those people who told you in your life they loved you but misrepresented the Father’s love and kind of love to you. Only you and the Father of love know the answers. If you’ve armored up your heart, it’s time to disarm. As you receive His Love, His Love will free you to love yourself with His Love… to love others (including those who have wounded and hurt you) and to receive His Love from those who are still in your life who represent His love well to you. He will show you how to love… and how to be loved. And this is where your heart begins to bloom again.
I know it’s easy to lock up your heart quickly, but instead, invite the Heart Healer in today. Let Him go into the places you haven’t let anyone back into. Let His Love teach you. Let His Love highlight His Kingdom Lovers… those who have encountered and experienced His healing Love and will love you beyond your imagination… and will never want to hurt you. And when you meet them, you will recognize them by the fruit of Love in their lives.
Once you let the Heart Healer in, let the healing and blooming begin. Then enjoy His Love gifts… His friends, too… who will know how to love you with His Life… His Light… and His Love. Kingdom Lovers… keep keepin’ your Love on.

Matthew 7:1–2 (NLT)Jesus teaches that judgment returns to the one who gives it… the measure you use on others becomes the measure that comes back to you. This reflects how judgment wounds your own heart first.
1 John 4:18–19 (NLT)Perfect Love drives out fear… and we love because He first loved us. This reveals why fear and judgment cannot stay where the Father of Love is healing you.

The most beautiful souls in this world are the ones who have walked through loss yet still choose to LOVE… the ones who have tasted tragedy yet continue to hold on to FAITH… the ones who have known failure yet keep dreaming with Heaven’s hope. These are the shining & radiant ones that really inspire my heart ~ the ones whose hearts have been pressed, stretched, squeezed, squished and broken open, yet still pour out Love like a river sharing the Source of its living waters with everyone they encounter who are just needing a drink of The Father of Love’s Healing Love to quench their deep thirst.
Keep shining, Child of Love. Keep sharing your LOVE, your FAITH, and your DREAMS with the precious souls who cross your path who are in their own seasons of loss, tragedy, trauma, survival mode and failure. Every act of Love you give… every word of faith you speak… every dream you encourage… becomes a sacred & holy deposit into every heart God brings into your life. These are Heaven’s investments you are generously giving ~ gifts of Love that heal, lift, and breathe life into weary souls. Our Kingdom of Love mission is to share our Love Gifts and pray over the hearts of the recipients to “Receive My Love.” It is the Love of the Father we are sharing with them.
Be His voice of Love. Be Love’s hands, His feet, His heart, the sweet smile of Jesus in someone’s story. Cheer hearts on around you and celebrate their growth, their healing journey and even the noteworthy, praiseworthy news they held on to Love Himself for one more day. Make sure you hold space for hearts that are hurting. Give them your undivided Love attention. They need to know, feel and see that you are one of the Kingdom Love Very Present Helpers like our Father of Love is. Believe and hope with others. You never know how joining your hope with their frayed hope helps to boost and build their confidence and expectation looking for a Good God outcome. They may be as anxious as can be and maybe just maybe you taking time to listen, lovingly respond and pray with and for them is just the very gift they need to help settle them down and give them strength in the waiting. Let your life be a living & loving testimony that our dreams and our hopes really do rise again in the warmth of Love and the fragrance of our heartfelt prayers.
Remember where you once were in your darkest hours ~ the ache, the loneliness, the longing for someone to simply stay right there & be present with you, actively listening to your heart and your stories letting you be real ~ messes and all. Remember the moment you discovered Jesus, Love Himself had been with you the whole time, even when you couldn’t see or feel Him. Remember how you prayed for someone who would be Jesus skin on friend with you and sit with you, breathe with you, and remind you that you weren’t alone? It made all the difference in the world knowing you weren’t in it all by yourself and that you had someone there holding your hand, or just sitting with you in the silence or kneeling to pray with you when you thought you were going to lose it or literally crumble.
And remember this, Child of Love ~ every time you choose to love in a world that has wounded you, Heaven stands to its feet. Every time you offer compassion in the very place you once bled, the Father of Love whispers, “That’s My Loving & Compassionate heart beating in you.” Every time you sit with a trembling soul and lend them your courage, your hope, your presence, you are echoing the very heartbeat that carried you through your own valley. You are not just loving others back to life ~ you are revealing the Father of Love in a way only your story can. Your scars have become lanterns to help be a Love Light to light the Love path for those journeying to the House of Love, soul beaten, heart tired and spirit exhausted. Your tears have become like healing oil. Your journey has become a beautiful map to help lead someone else to their healing miracle. Keep walking in Love’s rhythm. Keep pouring from the well He dug inside you. You are a Kingdom Lover ~ and Heaven recognizes that you are one of His Children of Love that knows how to love others back to life with His Love.
Now… I want to encourage you to be that answer to prayer for someone else just like Love Himself was there with you and brought another Kingdom Lover to your bedside, on a car ride, to sit with you on that bench in the park or across the table and be His Kingdom Love to you ~ face to face ~ right when you needed it most. Let the Love that rescued you become the Love that flows through you to others. Make it a whole 2 Corinthians 1:3- 4 God moment for them. Let the faith that carried you become the faith you lend to another heart in their time of great need. Let the dreams God revived inside of you become the inspiration to help awaken the dreams in someone else.
Reflecting on 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 here in the House of Love ~ The Father of Love has this tender way of stepping into our deepest aches and gathering us close, pouring His comfort into the very places we thought would break us forever. Every valley He walked you through was so He could be fully present with you in yours. Every tear He wept helped Him to know how to carefully treasure and catch every tear you’ve ever cried. Every moment He held you together when you felt like falling apart has now become a holy well inside you ~ for He is the Well of Life. From that well flows the same healing comfort He has been pouring in to restore your wounds. The tenderness He wrapped around your heart becomes the tenderness you now carry to the hearts of others. The strength He breathed into you in the dark night of your soul becomes the strength you lend to trembling souls in the darkest night of theirs. His soft Peace be Still whisper that ministered to you becomes the soft Peace be Still whisper you speak into someone else’s storm. The Love that lifted you when you could not lift yourself becomes the Love that rises again in you for the sole purpose of helping another rise from the ashes. Nothing He healed in you is meant to only stay with you ~ His healing becomes healing through you, His comfort becomes comfort through you, His compassion becomes compassion through you. This is the beautiful story of Love Himself ~ the very places where you were once broken become the places where Heaven now pours out its healing comfort, heart to heart, life to life, spirit to spirt, Love to Love Presence.
There is no better partner in loving others back to life than Love Himself. Let His Compassionate Love ~ and your love ~ be seen, heard, known, and felt in every heart He places along your Love path. This is the heart of a Kingdom Lover. This is your thank ~You back to God ~ that you now get to love others into the same Life, Light, and Love that He loved you back to life with! Living the Love~Life is the best life. It’s the life you were made for. It’s the life that brings Heaven’s Compassionate Love to earth through you.
