Letter from God

My Princess

Triumph Through Trials

I see you when you are in the garden of grief, My princess. I hear your cry for help in the dark hours of the night.  I Myself cried out in the garden the night I was betrayed.  In My suffering I asked My Father for another way a less painful way.  Yet I trusted His will and purpose for My life and knew the ultimate victory was at the cross.  Just as olives must be crushed to make oil, I poured out My life as a love offering for you. 

Don't ever doubt that I am with you and that I long to take you to a place of comfort, peace, and victory.  Even when you cannot see Me from where you are, I am working on your behalf.  Give to Me the crushing weight of your circumstances, and come to Me in prayer.  When it is time to leave the garden, I will walk with you across the valley and straight to the cross where your trials will be transformed into triumph.

Who Me--Royalty?

Me, a princess?  Yeah, right!  A princess lives in a castle with servants who answer her every beck and call.  She walks gracefully, smiles pleasantly at everyone, and fits society's view of elegance.

I'm none of those things.

Yet, the Bible tells me my Heavenly Father is the King of Kings.  And since I am His child, that makes me a princess. And, like any other princess, my Father, the King, loves me and takes care of all my needs. If ever I need anything, I simply have to ask and He will provide.

Maybe we need to look beyond the surface, the glitz, and the glamour, and reconsider what a princess really is, based on who the real King is.
