A LETTER AND PRAYER FOR YOU
Dear Friend,
If you are reading this, I want you to know that this website was made with love for you. I may never know your name or your story, but I have prayed for you.
You may be scared, confused, hurt, or looking for answers. You may not know much about God or the Bible. That is okay. You do not have to understand everything today. You do not have to be perfect. You do not have to pretend that you are not afraid.
My prayer is that these pages will help you find truth, hope, and peace. More than anything, I pray that they will help you know Jesus. He knows you. He sees what you are going through. He loves you. You can talk to Him right where you are.
Please take your time. Read. Ask questions. Think about what you are learning. God does not force you to believe in Him. The choice is yours. My hope is simply that you will give Jesus a chance and learn for yourself who He is.
My Prayer for You
Dear Jesus, please be near the person reading these words. If they are afraid, give them peace. If they are confused, help them understand. If they are hurting, comfort them. If they feel alone, remind them that You see them and care about them.
Please guide them as they read. Help them know what is true. Help them understand how much You love them. Give them courage for today and hope for tomorrow. Most of all, I pray that they will come to know You, trust You, and receive the gift of salvation You freely offer.
Watch over them. Lead them one step at a time. Let them know they are deeply loved.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
With love and prayer from someone who hoped this message would find you.
Start with the question you have right now. You are loved. You are not alone.
