In 2012, a sweet friend of mine was battling cancer.  Many of you reading this knew and loved Heidi H.  As she got weaker, I asked God if He would give me a word or something for her. Her husband, Joe gave me permission to share this with you.

From the journal . . . July 2012

 Lord, how good You always are!!  Heidi is so much on my mind.  What would You say to her?

And I believe God said. . .

Heidi.   Fear not.  You are fulfilling My purposes for you.  *You and Joe are bearing fruit that will last and produce more fruit.  Your sweetness blesses Me and blesses others.  When you appreciate My creation – it’s because you were created in My image.  I made what I like.  When you like it, that’s the ‘Me’ part in you.  I say to you,  “Do you like this view?” Or  “Do you like this flower?”  And you say  “Oh Lord.  It’s beyond words!”  That makes Me smile because it’s intimate and personal.  ‘My daughter, Heidi liked what I made and I knew she would!’  Just wait till you see heaven!!  It’s an upgrade.  I love you and I love Joe.  You are both pleasing to Me and as you delight in My creation – so do I delight in you.  Even when you can’t see the beauty, it is still there.  Even when you are down, scared, angry or doubtful  – I am here.  Fear not.

John 15:8 Col 1:10

I love this because as He spoke to my heart I felt His delight in her. That made me love Jesus more and it made me love sweet Heidi more.  

This letter was for Heidi and Joe but I believe God wants all of us to enjoy His creation and recognize that He created it for us!!
