You are Known, You are Loved- You Are My Beloved

To the girl who feels like she is seen but never known, I know you.

Your life is marked by the fading approval of others, but even in that you find yourself still searching.

They see you and perceive that you are busy, have a lot of friends, but I know you.

To the girl who looks like she has it all together, but is broken inside. I know you.

Your life was marked with busyness, reaching out and pouring out.

You hide behind doing because it is easier to keep busy than to just be.

They think you are fine, but really you’re not because you forget that you are mine.

To the girl who strives and tries because that’s all you know, I know you.

You are constantly wandering in fear, from the day you first heard the words “ I wish we never adopted you”

You ran to people, you ran to achievements, but I was standing there all along.

As you begin to realize this void, you continue to seek to fill it with others.

You meet up in hopes to experience fellowship, but the reality is that you were seeking them, not me.

To the girl who knows about me, but does not understand the depth of my heart.

You continue to dig and read about me, but as you begin to learn and understand, the question is do you believe?

Your life has been marked with many hurts, disappointments, and a lack of care.

But I have always been there.

To the girl who is in the waiting, I know you.

You hate not understanding what I am doing. But my ways are higher than your ways, my thoughts are not like yours.

You doubt you’ll ever find the freedom from people pleasing and fearing rejection.

But even in the midst of this, I am your Father. I AM who I AM.

To the girl who does not fully know me yet, although you do not fully trust me, I know you.

I created you in the very palm of my hands before the foundation of the world

I chose you to be my daughter

You ask and you seek, but I am telling you wait.

You are in a season of preparation,I am making you-forming you into who I intended you to be.

To the girl who seeks approval, I will show you that you are already approved.

To the girl who seeks to be cared for, I will show you that I am enough.

To the girl who yearns to be known,

You are known, you are loved- you are my beloved.
