When You Were Born

Giving birth is the only time a woman is hand in hand with God in creation..........
As I watched my grandchild come into the world, I stood in awe of God........how carefully he planned each fingernail, and eyelash and how they would work.......No way could life have come to be, by a big explosion or a cosmic coincidence..........NO WAY!!.......looking at my daughter and watching her become a partner in creation, gave light to her faith....how she was trusting not just me, her husband, the medical staff.....but God.....and how he showed up....with such grandeur and majesty in the form of a small baby......and in the love shown in the lives of each family member and friend gathered around to witness the blessed event.....he never fails.......

serenity

Glowing embers
flames dancing to and fro
deep within
it's warmth
I am trapped
