Father God has been around my life all along. When I saw a video of the Father's love letter, tears welled up in my eyes. Every word from the verses were true. It is as if the letter was written intently for me alone. It summarizes all my 39 years of life experience.
Looking back, many wonderful things have happened in my life that only He can make possible.'I offer you more than your earthly father ever could.' (Matthew 7:11); 'For I am the perfect father.' (Matthew 5:48). I will give glory and praise Him forever.
I am from the Philippines. I am an only child by my mother. My Father abandoned us when I was a baby. Physically-abused by my miserable mother, I struggled through teenage life. I wanted to ruin my life but Father God kept me safe all the time. He 'talked' to me in my heart. I am a loner, so I endured everything until I finished high school.
With no funds from either my mother or my father, I went to college through a scholarship for a year. Hurt of my father's rejection, after meeting him at 18 yrs. of age, I asked God if I can ever have somebody who will be my 'real friend'. He sent me the guy, who would become my husband, when I was 19, and after 5 months, we got married.
Then I prayed to my Father, that I want a bachelor's degree, which my earthly father withheld from me even with his millions of money. God blessed me with a scholarship in Australia. My husband and I and our 3 yr-old son lived in Australia for 3 years.
When we returned to the country, I promised Father God that I will give glory to Him all my life and I will speak of His goodness to as many young students. I got a teaching job at a prestigious university in my city. I told God I need to complete an MBA to be permanent. He blessed me with another graduate school scholarship.
After some years of teaching, I made Him known my heart's desire to see and to study in the USA. On my 9th year of teaching, He blessed me with graduate degree scholarship at a university in the east coast.
Truly, He is true to His word: 'And it is my desire to lavish my love on you.' (1 John 3:1) Who could be so lucky to be blessed with two foreign studies scholarships. I was not just lucky. I was blessed by my Heavenly Father. He lavished His love on me.
As for my earthly father, I have long forgiven him. I have to make room in my heart for God's offer:
'I offer you more than your earthly father ever could.' (Matthew 7:11)
Every good gift that you receive comes from my hand.
James 1:17
For I am your provider and I meet all your needs.
Matthew 6:31-33
I have experienced the love of my Heavenly Father. I am now 39 and I continue to bathe in His love and care. I am so blessed in just everything I need, family and career, and few people whom I share and grow my faith with. until the end of my days, I will speak of the love of God to His beloved children. Praise and glory to the Lord, forever and ever.
May my story be useful in whatever way you thought you could use it. It is my desire to give glory to the Father in whatever way. Thank you.
p.s. I truly can relate to the children's cartoon FLL. :) Glory to God.

One of the scripture verses you share has particular meaning to me. I have been meditating about God's love for the past few weeks and recently in prayer, I had a picture in my mind of Jesus reaching down, scooping me up in his arm and holding me close to his heart.
And the verse is: "As a shepherd carries a lamb, I have carried you close to my heart. Isaiah 40:11" - I don't recall ever reading this verse before so thanks so much for the love letter. We are very blessed with God's love!

Without any exageration, this Father´s letter is the most beautiful and powerful thing I have ever seen. I, as a strong Christian, really enjoyed it seeing repeatedly, dropping some tears every time. Hereby, I would like to express a great gratitude to each and every person that contributed to the distribution of this video! God bless you all!
btw I constantly try to make as many people as possible see it.

when my best friend's neighbor told me about this website and the love letter, my first thought was 'uh.....ok.'. when i got home that night i looked it up and was amazed to find how deeply the words of the letter spoke to me.
every line was a different verse from scripture. i personally have always had trouble relating with God the Father. this has really touched my life and i want other people to feel the same peace i did when i watched it. i have spoken about the love letter twice in two different masses and have mentioned it personally to Dave Palmer. it touched him and he said he would promote it.

I would just like to say that this is a complete representation of what is going on in the world today. People are misrepresenting God and that is why so many children are so lost. I have a couple of friends and family members in prison and I wanted to send them all this letter. I would like to know how much it would cost. I haven't gotten the exact number of inmates but I do know that they all need a letter just like this. To read all the days of their life and know that they are truly LOVED!! God Bless you all!!
