My Pilot is God daily devotional: Inspiration

Note: This appeared on our kitchen table one day as a letter printed on some nice bond paper. I thought it was something someone gave to my wife, but she doesn't know where it came from.

Inspiration - My Child

I know everything about you (Psalm 139:1). I know when you sit down and when you rise up (Psalm 139:2). I am familiar with all your ways (Psalm 139:3). I even know how many hairs you have on your head (Matthew 10:29-31). For you were made in my image (Genesis 1:27). In me you you live, move, and exist. You are my child (Acts 17:28). I knew all about all you even before you were created (Jeremiah 1:4-5). I chose you when I planned creation (Ephesians 1:11-12). You were not a mistake, for every day of your life is recorded in My book (Psalm 139:15-16). I determined the exact time of your birth, and where you would live (Acts 17:26). You are a wonderful and marvelous creation (Psalm 139:14). I made all the delicate and inner parts of your body (Psalm 139:13) and brought you forth on the day you were born (Psalm 71:6). I am not far away or angry, but am a total expression of love (1 John 4:16), and it is My desire to pour my love on you simply because you are my child and I am your Heavenly Father (1 John 3:1). Every good gift you receive comes from my hand (James 1:17). I am your provider and I meet all your needs (Matthew 6:31-33). My plan for your future has always been filled with hope (Jeremiah 29:11), because I love you with an everlasting love (Jeremiah 31:3). My thoughts about you outnumber the grains of sand on the seashore (Psalm 139:17-18). I rejoice over you with singing (Zephaniah 3:17). I will never stop doing good to you (Jeremiah 32:40), for you are my treasured possession (Exodus 19:5) and I want to show you great and awesome things (Jeremiah 33:3). If you go after me with all your heart, you will find me (Deuteronomy 4:29). Get excited about me and I will give you your heart's desires (Psalm 37:4), for it is I who gave you those desires (Philippians 2:23). I am able to do more for you than you could ever imagine (Ephesians 3:20). I am also the Father who comforts you in all your troubles (2 Corinthians 1:3-4). When you are hurting, I am close to you (Psalm 34:18). As a shepherd carries a lamb, I have carried you close to my heart (Isaiah 40:11). One day I will wipe away every tear from your eyes and take away all the pain you have ever suffered here on this earth (Revelation 21:3-4). I am your father, and I love you even as I love my son, Jesus (John 17:23), for in Jesus, My love for you is revealed (John 17:26). My son Jesus is the exact representation of Me (Hebrews 1:3). My Son came to show you that I am for you, not against you (Romans 8:31), and to tell you that I am not counting your sins (2 Corinthians 5:18-19). My Son died so that you and I could have a relationship (2 Corinthians 2:18-19). His death was the ultimate expression of My love for you (1 John 4:10). I gave up everything that I love that I might gain your love (Romans 8:31-32). If you receive the gift of My Son, Jesus, you receive Me (1 John 2:23), and nothing will separate you from My love ever again (Romans 8:38-39). I have always been and always will be your Father (Ephesians 3:14-15). Come home and I will throw the biggest party Heaven has ever seen (Luke 15:7).
