Once Upon A Time


(*Picture is of my son Taylor)

Truth:

Once Upon a time

God knitted You

together in your mother's womb

&

you were a

Baby,

whose first word was a cry.

Music to your mommy & daddy's ears,

but then the cry that was once music

doesn't like a song at 2 in the morning.

But then the smiles return

as you are taken from the crib

&

held and fed

until the next cry at 4 am.

Once upon a time

God knitted You

together in your mother's womb.

You~

perfectly crafted,

on purpose & for a purpose

from the moment of your first cry

&

every cry after that.

Music to your

Father's Ears

the moment you cry out to

Him~

"I cry to God to help me. From His palace He hears my call; my cry brings me right into His presence— a private audience!

and no one can take that away." (Psalm 18:6 The Message)

Because you are

His Child~

even though you are no longer a baby.

Today

as my second

"Baby"

is awaiting the birth

of his first baby

tears fill my eyes as I remember that moment when they said

"It's a boy".

A son for my husband & I.

A brother for his older sister.

I remember holding him for hours

&

looking at his little tiny feet & fingers

& those eyes.

Once a baby,

yet who is no longer a baby

but who

I share & you share you the same story~

Once Upon a time God knitted.

God crafted.

God created.

God shaped

each & every one

of us

in our mother's womb

&

HE will never

leave us or forsake us~

"You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book." (Psalm 56:8)

Look up today

&

Thank God

for

knitting you together

on purpose & for a purpose

&

cry out to

Him

because

An

Extraordinary God

Sees & Hears & Loves Precious You~

Making you

more than

Ordinary.

As no one is born by accident!
