For more than a year now, I have been carrying a letter in my wallet. I'm not sure if I carry it with me to share with someone who may need the encouragement or if its more to remind me that I am loved. What makes this letter so valuable is not who wrote it but the truth behind the words written.
At the time it was written, I was preparing for a teaching on guarding our (valuable) feminine hearts. I asked a good friend of mine (whom we shall call Mr. Man), "If you could talk with my girls, what would you say to them about their value and worth?" He shared with me amazing things but in the matter of five minutes I had forgotten every point He made. So I prayed, "God, if it is your will for Mr. Man's words to be shared with my girls, place it in His heart to write it on paper." Lo and Behold, God had began that work in his heart and a few days later he asked if e he could write them a letter. I know that this letter comes not from my friend but from God's very heart. It's not only for my youth girls, or just for me, but for all of us! Be blessed dear sister by knowing and accepting your value and worth in Christ!

Thank You Myleen for this pic of Emma! |
To God's little girls,
You are God's little girl. Never forget. See yourself the way God sees you, for His thoughts are what matter. No man, no boy, no one can ever take that away from you. You are worth more that your weight in gold, but even gold has no value in the mouth of a pig. Don't ever lose respect for yourself. No man can conquer you, except for He who has conquered death. He alone should reign in your heart's throne room.

"For your Maker is your Husband, the Lord of Hosts is His name. And your Redeemer is the Holy one of Israel; He is called God of the whole earth." (Isaiah 54:5) Guard your hearts. Men are pigs, foolish and putrid. May you be so lost in God, that in order for a man to find you, he must first be close to God.

You are His little girl. It is not your fault you are hurting. Rise Up! Though now you may be bleeding, never forget His Words:
"Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction." (Mark 5:34) "I have blotted our your transgressions, like a thick cloud, return to Me, for I HAVE REDEEMED YOU." (Isaiah 44:22)Never forget your first love. Never look down on yourself. You are and will forever be beautiful jewels, the apple of your heavenly Father's eyes.

I love you ALL,
Mr. Man

Love this post, and that first verse seems to speak to me often (and when I need it most)! Thanks for sharing "Mr. Man's" wisdom and truth!
Thank you. 'Mr.Man' for letting the Lord speak through you in such a passionate and heartfelt way. Women are fragile and with hearts of porcelain. God is the only one with the hands gentle enough to hold such breakable hearts. Very, very encouraging. :)
Beautiful! Thanks to "Mr. Man" for crafting such a beautiful piece for deep encouragement & life to many girl's hearts. God bless you & God bless your friend. Have a great night!! :)
