There are so many people I would obviously love to have the opportunity to meet, President Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, Janet Jackson (I’d probably faint if I met her),  Beyonce, Judith Jamison, Nelson Mandela, Tina Tuner and Oprah just to name a few. However, there’s someone that trumps them all

*drum roll please*

 Jesus Christ

OMG the song “I Can Only Imagine” instantaneously comes to mind. I’ve met quite a few celebrities and I’ve never been star struck but I will probably burst into tears when we meet.  I say WHEN because there’s no doubt in my mind that we will meet face to face. I can’t begin to thank you for all the things you’ve done for me. I know that I’ve been blessed and I don’t take anything for granted. You’ve held my hand when I was afraid, guided me when I didn’t know which way to turn, and even carried me when I was too weak to move forward. I literally cry every time I think of all you’ve done for me. Your love for me is truly overwhelming. I don’t want to cheat you by writing a short letter, but the tears are about to start falling and I’m at work. 🙂

I know I don’t always live my life acceptable and pleasing unto you, and to be completely honest there’s absolutely no excuse for that. I’ve often gone against your word for my own selfish gains, but that never stopped you from being there to catch me when I fell. It amazes me how someone so perfect and so pure can love someone like me. Someone who falls short daily. Someone that has stumbled and gone astray more times than I can even begin to count. Yet, you still love me unconditionally. Even in my darkest of days and lowest of moments, when I felt like I was all alone, I know that you were right there wiping away tears and rocking me to sleep. I know people have gone through some of the things I’ve gone through and are currently in a mental institution or even worse…but you kept me safe in your arms. I’m so thankful that I don’t look like what I’ve been through. I’m so thankful that you never gave up on me, even when I tried to give up on you.

I could literally go on and on reminiscing on the times you were right there in the middle. I know I can be a control freak at times, but I’m slowly learning to just step aside. Thank you sending your angels to watch over me, even when I said I didn’t need anything or anyone. Thank you for answering my prayers, even if it wasn’t the answer I was hoping for. Thank you constantly opening doors, man said were closed. Thank you protecting me daily. Thank you for being my strength. Thank you for the tremendous favor you’ve placed over my life. Thank you for the gifts you’ve placed in me. Thank you for your grace and your mercy. Thank you for my health. Thank you for my family and friends. Thank you for the amazing people you’ve placed in my life. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for EVERYTHING!!!!! I don’t even want to begin to try to imagine my life without you, because it would be absolutely pointless.  

 You are my EVERYTHING and without you I am NOTHING!
