everyday princess

I ordered myself a little hair bling last week and it arrived with a few unexpected additions that made me feel so very girly and so very special. The designer's tagline: fairytale jewels for the everyday princess. I felt like a princess as I opened the brightly wrapped package! It reminded me of a beautiful book by Sheri Rose Shepherd, called "His Princess: Love Letters from Your King." Here's an excerpt for you:

My Princess…
YOU ARE MY PRECIOUS DAUGHTER

You are a daughter of the King, and not just any king. You are My daughter, and I am God of heaven and earth. I’m delighted with you! You are the apple of my eye. You’re Daddy’s girl. Your earthly father may love and adore you, but his love is not perfect, no matter how great – or small – it is. Only My love is perfect… because I am Love. I formed your body. I fashioned your mind and soul. I know your personality, and I understand your needs and desires. I see your heartaches and disappointments, and I love you passionately and patiently. My child, I bought you with a price so that we could have an intimate relationship together for all eternity. Soon we will see each other face-to-face – Father and daughter – and you will experience the wonderful place I have prepared for you in paradise. Until then, fix your eyes on heaven, and walk closely with Me. You will know that – although I am God – My arms are not too big to hold you, My beloved daughter.

Love,
Your King and Daddy in heaven

“And I will be your Father, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.” 2 Corinthians 6:18
