My child, you are Mine!

When you entered this world, I smiled!
From the first day I knew you were Mine.

When you walked away from my love,
When you chose to let anger rule your heart,
I winced, but you were still Mine.

When you opened up your heart,
Lowered your pride and accepted my love,
My heart soared because you were all Mine.

I watched you grow,
I watched you fall.
I watched you from a distance you chose,
I watched you when your hand was in Mine.

I smiled when you crawled in my lap,
I caught your tears when you came home.

I have soothed the ache,
Healed the wounds,
Carried you in My arms,
Whispered words of love and forgivness in your ear.

I love you like no one else can,
I demand more than anyone else will.
My gifts to you are far greater than anything measured on this earth.

Come, walk with me,
Let me hold your hand,
And show you the greatness of My glory,
For you are Mine!
