Truth:
Once Upon a time
GOD KNITTED YOU
together in your mother's womb
and you were a
Baby,
whose first word was a cry.
Music to the mommy and daddy's ears,
but then the cry that was once music
doesn't like a song at 2 in the morning.
But then smiles return
as you are taken from the crib
and 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 and for a purpose
from the moment of your first cry
and 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.
As my second "Baby"
is turning a year older today,
tears fill my eyes as I remember that moment when they said
"It's a boy!"
A son for my husband and I.
A brother for his older sister.
I remember holding him for hours &
looking at his little tiny feet and fingers and those eyes.
Once a baby,
yet who is no longer a baby
but who
you & I 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
and
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
and
THANK GOD
for
knitting you together
on purpose and for a purpose
and
cry out to
HIM
because
An
EXTRAORDINARY GOD
Sees & Hears & Loves Precious You~
Making you
more than
Ordinary.
From Ordinary to Extraordinary
Just one cry away.
