The Bullet of Hearing: The Unopened Love Letters
Elisabeth Barrett Browning was and is one of the greatest poets and authors of all time. She has given us such fantastic and moving lines as …”How do I love thee? Let me count the ways …” “Grief may be joy misunderstood,” etc. Her parents hated her marriage to Robert Browning and severed their relationship with her. She wrote faithfully, letter after letter, assuring them of her love and desire for reconciliation. What magnificent and compassionate words must have flowed from her inspire pen. The flower of language’s greatest expressions were couched and nourished in a heart of suffering love. How did the parents respond?
After writing for ten years, Mrs. Browning received a large package containing all the letters she had ever written. None of them had been opened!!
In thousands of ways our Heavenly Father is seeking to share His magnificent message of powerful love. The curse of mankind is that the majority has refused to receive it.
Check carefully and you’ll see that the most joyous folks on earth are those true Christians of the minority who have and are receiving the message of God. Why not get in on it??
