Heavenly Parent Text Box: Dear Servant,

	I know many humans deny that it will happen to them, but one day you will die.  You will leave this earth to face eternity with me.  You will live with me forever and never want for anything. You will live in perfect peace, without fault or sin, sorrow or sickness.  Unlike the Garden of Eden, I will not come and visit you, rather you will live in my home and we will be together forever.  But no matter how you deny it, you will die.
	Who will care for your children after you are gone?  Who will be their provider?  Do you not know that they are my children already?  I am the same God to them as I am to you.  I will be present for them long after you have departed the earth.  Why can you not let go and surrender them to me?  I am not saying you should not discipline and raise them, but you must surrender them to me for my will and my glory.  You must allow me to discipline, encourage, and lead them.  You must allow them to go down the paths I have prepared for them and to learn the lessons I want to teach them.  Someday you will have to leave them to my care.  Why not surrender them to me today?

The Heavenly Parent, I AM
