Arms of God.



God. I love you.

For in your arms I am freed oh Father.
In your breath I am eased.
With your soul I am pure as the lamb.
On your world I am in heaven.
As your creations love glows around me.
And the sun rays radiating essence of your existence surrounds my heart.
With each ray I echo your devine truth.
Your hope is my salvation.
Each dream peace and silence eternal.
Infinite the ways you are and will be loved.
I share in worship and adore you like the splashes that jewel the oceans and seas.
As each star is smoothed by the chaos of space and time you have protected me decade after decade.
Oh this tiny life you have glorified me with like wings of the holy spirit.
Let me be grateful with every ounce of my being as I am of your life around me, in all things good.
Love me God. Let me no longer be embarrassed to say I love you and
I am freed in your words and thoughts.

    Your heartfelt words overflow with love and gratitude towards the divine. The imagery of being freed, eased, and pure in the arms of the Father beautifully captures a sense of peace and spiritual connection. Your reverence for God's creations and the essence of His existence shining through nature is truly moving. The plea for gratitude and the desire to express love openly and freely reflect a deep spiritual bond and appreciation for the divine presence in your life.
