Their daughter Elizabeth, however, wrote almost every week, telling them that she loved them and longed for a reconciliation.
After 10 years, she received a huge box in the mail that contained all the notes she had sent. Not one had been opened!
Although these "love letters" have now become a precious part of classical English literature, it's really sad to think that they were never read by Elizabeth Barrett's own parents.
Had they looked at just one, the broken relationship with their daughter might have been healed.
All of us are alienated from God because of sin, but God has provided a way of reconciliation. In the Bible, He tells about it, and also expresses His earnest desire for fellowship with us.
The question is, are you reading God's letter to you regularly?
Are you meditating His Words daily?
If not, let this message today be of an encouragement to you.
Begin memorizing and meditating God's Word and feel His presence wherever you go.
