The One...

I wrote this a few years ago & read it to our church as I greeted them on Mother's Day. It's not a typical blog for me - it's actually more of a word from The Lord to ladies on this special day. I hope it ministers to you today as it did so many of us when He first gave it to me... Happy Mother's Day ❤️




For the one who has heard the exciting and sometimes overwhelming news that she would soon be a mother - Jesus says, I was there. 

For the one who has heard time and time again the heartbreak that she would not yet be a mother - I was there. 

For the one, who in confusion and fear, chose to end the life of her unborn child - I was there. 

For the one, who in great pain yet courage, placed her child into the arms of another to be raised - I was there. 

For the one who accepted and loved the child who grew in her heart but in another's womb - I was there. 

For the one who nurtured a child in her womb just long enough to love for a lifetime, but never cradled that gift in her arms - I was there. 

For the one who has endured the grief of laying her child to rest and released their soul to heaven - I was there. 

For the first breath, first word, first step, first everything - I was there. 

Daughter, in your fear, your times of testing, your hope and your greatest joy - I have been, I am and I will forever be with you. Rest. You are loved.
