The meaning of life from a mother’s point of view

Life is full of uncertainties

I sit here thinking

Scared I must admit

With no power or control

God is my only guide

What would I do without you

Where would I go if I lost you

This life will have no meaning                                                                                  

That I say while tearing

Knowing it’s beyond me

Hoping and praying

I ask God to keep you safe

All the days of your life

May he grant me today

This wish in my heart

For me to always be there

In each and every step of the way

To see you grow into a man

That my grandchildren

And your grandchildren

We may see

True story; Baby Zeph mimics my sneeze

God is great!

It is just occurred to me that I have been taking for granted that God is great. Throughout my pregnancy and to my delivery, God has been merciful to me. My baby is growing up quickly and surely, he has been blessed. Not once has he lacked, and even when he is not feeling well, he quickly recovers. There is nothing that I have done to deserve such love and mercy from my father up above.

I have decided, instead of complaining or worrying every time, I will praise his name. I will look up to Him for protection, provision and all that matters. I will do that which I can; I will do my best and leave the rest to the Lord. He is able. He has good plans for me and my child. I dedicate his life unto him and trust that he will always keep him.

I get rid of all bitterness. I declare today that I will only focus on the positive. My Jesus and I have a good thing going on and am not about to spoil that because I feel disappointed in man. After all, we have all sinned and fallen short of glory of God. The Bible further says that I should forgive the way I would like to be forgiven. Remember the Lord’s prayer,” … forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us…”.

God is great, He is so wonderful, He is so merciful to me!
