First Love

I created My world in anticipation of you. I gave you everything you needed; goodness, love, the kindness of strangers, wickedness, and Me in my divine glory; your Creator, your God.

I perfected My world and placed you in it, into the loving arms of a firm mother and a father that worked late but loved you. You were free of providence, but did not suffer from a lack of higher purpose. Quite the contrary: you made use of My gift to you, and travelled every corner of it, and loved it, and died.

My world has served its purpose.
