         I
do understand, dear one, My precious flower. I do see your tears and I long to hold you in My bosom to comfort you, to caress you, to kiss you. And those things I do, when you take time alone to pray and study My Words. I kiss and encourage you with My Words.
         Please don't be discouraged, My dear precious love, and don't believe the lies of the Enemy when he says that I'm upset with you! Don't believe it when he says that you're not important to Me and that I have other more important matters to attend to. Do I not leave the 99 who are safe in the fold to rescue the one lost sheep? Does not My heart ache for it? Do I not search for it long and hard until I find it?
         When you hurt, when you are discouraged, when you doubt, when you fear and when you worry,
you are that lost sheep, and I am never too busy to help you--just you--during that time of need.
