You Will Know Everlasting Joy
My beloved,
I know how much your heart breaks for the sorrows you sometimes see. Please know that when your heart breaks, so does mine. It won't always be this way, my beloved bride--one day I will touch your cheek and wipe away the very last tear you will ever cry again. But for now, I want you to pray for those in need of a touch from me. Hold on to hope--I will be there soon!
Love,
Your Prince and everlasting Joy
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things will be gone forever. - Revelation 21:4
Prayer to my Prince
My Lord,
My heart does break from what I see--and sometimes I feel helpless. I long to see people free from suffering and pain. Renew eternal hope in my heart, my Lord. Give me your unspeakable joy in the midst of the hardships of this life. Give me the passion I need to bring others your gift of everlasting hope and new life. Keep my eyes fixed on the joys to come, Amen!
Love,
Your princess bride who needs you
The ransomed of the LORD will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away. - Isaiah 51:11 (NIV)
