Sweet Love Letters to Jesus - Crystal G.H. Lowery
What Others Are Saying
"This fantastic devotional by Crystal Lowery is perfect for the busy person, like a businessman once told me that he struggled to know how to be intimate with the Lord. So, in gatherings, he explained, ‘I often attach myself to the prayers I hear being prayed so I can quickly feel God’s love for me and my love for Him.’ Crystal’s devotional, Sweet Love Letters to Jesus is ready-made for you and me to add our ‘yes’ and ‘amen’ to hers as she reaches for His throne. As Crystal records her daily devotional praying to the Lord, we can easily add or attach ourselves to hers, and experience and express our love for God. This is my kind of devotional—one that draws us into His presence. Get this devotional and while you’re at it, buy one as a gift for a friend!"

"Having experienced traumatic loss, in the death of her husband, Crystal was faced with the decision to hold on to her faith though her prayer for her husband to be healed was not answered the way that she had hoped. It was during that season of needing answers to very real questions that she spent hours seeking the Lord. From her time in His presence, grace and peace were poured into her, and a new depth of love for her Savior and Lord emerged.
Much like the biblical story of Ruth, Crystal’s decision to follow God’s plan and trust His purpose, despite her loss, brought a love for her ‘Boaz,’ the Lord Jesus, which is eloquently reflected in these Sweet Love Letters to Jesus. I am pleased to refer her Psalms-like writings based on the Word of God to you."

Crystal has captured the true heart of Bridal Love. Every prayer, every intimate expression of her communion with the Lord burns with the flame of love! Every page bears a divine branding of the marks and scars of her heart.

"We all know that amid our greatest suffering, God is the closest to us! These Sweet Love Letters to Jesus came straight from Crystal’s heart during her most difficult season, having lost her beloved husband. We highly recommend this devotional. The Holy Spirit will draw you into a more intimate relationship with Jesus."

"Crystal has written a different kind of devotional. Putting words to what we all think, she has truly written as the title suggests, love letters to her Lord.
Endearing and uplifting, her book is a unique addition to your biblical library."
-- Chuck Girard

"The very depth of Crystal's heart and her relationship with her Heavenly Father, are so well expressed by evocative, defined, and detailed words; I am immediately shown the way to my Heavenly Father, His Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. The more I read Sweet Love Letters to Jesus, the more the message becomes real to my heart. They are so concentrated that I took my time weighing each sentence, each word. Many times, I found myself pondering the only person that mattered in the moment, the Lord Jesus Christ. It is impossible to read them without entering His presence.
At one point, I started to read out loud (something I would recommend you do), and I experienced an even deeper, more personal relationship with the person of Jesus.
Sweet Love Letters to Jesus made me cry, sing, and meditate on His love for me and our world. Thank you, Crystal, for your obedience to the Father in these writings, and making yourself vulnerable in such a personal way.
Allow these modern-day psalms to usher you into a more personal relationship with the Heavenly Father.

Foreword 1
I
wholeheartedly recommend this 90-day journey to everyone who seeks the highest prize in life. Cultivating a deep intimate life with Jesus Christ is the pinnacle to all of life’s existence. In this three-month experience, Crystal will guide you into the greatest encounter of all; falling intensely in love with Love Himself. Crystal is one of the most humble, authentic, and genuine Jesus lovers in this current day and age that God is raising in such a profound way to touch the nations of the world. What I so admire and honor about Crystal is that she walks in the very manuscript written before you. She has learned how to skate through both life’s trials and victories from the place of eternal embrace. Crystal lives a life of union with Jesus Christ the Bridegroom King. This Spirit breathed guide is certain to transform your life forever and leave you marked by Love Divine.

Hen I first met Crystal Lowery, I knew there was something different, so extraordinary about this woman’s heart. She not only carried a radiance of God’s love, but there was an innocence on her face and in her faith that caused me to take a deep breath. We effortlessly shared our journeys and the encounters with God’s love that had changed our lives.
She shared her desire to publish a book that she was writing titled, Sweet Love Letters to Jesus
. I was thrilled because it was obvious to me, the well of her soul was deep with life changing truths.
Today, the church and the world are inundated with Self Help
books. Fans will always choose knowledge, while followers embrace intimacy. We need to be careful to never allow the knowledge of God to replace intimacy with God. We have created a system focused around learning, our default setting is knowledge, and not intimacy. Now, please don't get me wrong, studying and learning from God’s Word is invaluable. Jesus Himself, referenced, read, and quoted all kinds of passages from the Old Testament, ample proof that He had studied God’s Word with great care and diligence.
However, we can’t expect knowledge to replace intimacy, even though we often try to. And I think we try to substitute knowledge for intimacy because knowledge is so much easier. It’s easy for us to say, Well, I know about Jesus,
but He wants to know us.
In Sweet Love Letters to Jesus,
Crystal makes herself vulnerable, opening up about her hunger to know and be made known. She allows us a sneak peek into her heart’s devotion, as she longs after God’s heart.
I am reminded of Simon the Pharisee in Luke 7. He knew a lot about Jesus and his teachings and wanted to learn more. He calls him teacher
